Protein and glucose metabolism in response to hyperinsulinemia with and without hyperaminoacidemia in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus حسب Bassil, Maya Said

"…The presence of insulin resistance of protein in T2DM men has important implications for dietary protein recommendations as it suggests their protein requirements may be greater than current DRIs. Further investigation is warranted to address this issue in women and whether other dietary interventions known to improve insulin resistance of glucose metabolism in T2DM would modulate that of protein metabolism.…"
