Carbonylation is a hallmark of oxidative stress induced by lipid peroxidation products, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and 4-hydroxy-2- hexenal, on insulin signalling in L6 myoblasts.
Peripheral insulin resistance is one of the defining characteristics of type 2 diabetes - a metabolic disorder commonly associated with oxidative stress. Obesity and exposure to atmospheric oxidants, such as ozone gas, induces oxidative stress which increases lipid peroxidation. However, it is still...
