Interaction Information:

Comment In untreated rats insulin sensitivity decreased by 46% over 3-6 h of elevated free fatty acids (FFA), whereas it remained normal but with a 50% increase in FFA clearance in Pioglitazone-treated rats.
Formal Description
Interaction-ID: 2300
Comment Plasma adiponectin was increased 2-fold in Pioglitazone-treated rats and was negatively correlated with hepatic glucose output and liver long-chain acyl-coenzyme A.

Comment Pioglitazone-induced muscle insulin sensitization was largely diminished after matching plasma free fatty acid (FFA) elevation, but insulin-stimulated protein kinase B phosphorylation was protected.

Comment Thiazolidinediones can protect against lipid-induced insulin resistance with a significant component (mainly liver) of the protective effect not requiring lipid lowering. This may be related to chronic elevation of adiponectin by thiazolidinediones.

Comment Pioglitazone treatment reduced plasma levels of triglycerides, FFAs, leptin, and insulin by 23%, 21%, 44%, and 29%, respectively, but did not alter glucose concentration. There was a slight (17%) increase in muscle triglyceride content, whereas no differences were found in glycogen and other lipid metabolites in muscle or liver among the groups.
