RESUMO
The mechanism by which obesity leads to type 2 diabetes mellitus is unknown. It is generally agreed that insulin resistance is an invariable accompaniment of obesity but that normoglycemia is maintained by compensatory hiperinsulinemia until the pancreatic B cells become unable to meet the increased demand for insulin, at which point type 2 diabetes mellitus begins. The precise cause of insulin resistance is yet to be determined, but is association with obesity has long been established. Recent data has implied free fatty acids tumoral necrosis factor - alfa, muscle fiber type II b and leptin, as a link resistance and obesity
