Brief Summary
The investigator recently showed that the glycan-binding adipokine galectin-1 increased during overfeeding and that galectin-1 independently could predict type 2 diabetes. Further, the molecules that induce insulin release in the fasting state when blood glucose is normal remain elusive. It is possible that galectin-1 is involved in adaptive mechanisms in adipose tissue in obese subjects.
