Fasting plasma fatty acids and glycerol in spinal cord injured males.
Fasting plasma free fatty acids and glycerol were analysed from spinal cord injured individuals and able-bodied controls. Both analytes were significantly elevated (p<0.0005) when compared with the able-bodied controls. This significant elevation is most likely caused by adipose tissue lipolysis and...

| Sumario: | Fasting plasma free fatty acids and glycerol were analysed from spinal cord injured individuals and able-bodied controls. Both analytes were significantly elevated (p<0.0005) when compared with the able-bodied controls. This significant elevation is most likely caused by adipose tissue lipolysis and provides a direct in-vivo explanation for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes-mediated by free fatty acids.
