Researchers found that the Elovl6 gene plays a key role in hepatic insulin resistance. Deleting Elov6 in liver cells causes a rise in a specific ceramide lipid that protects mice from hepatic insulin resistance due to excessive dietary sugar. The findings could help efforts to find a targeted treatment for the condition.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2019\/10\/191024105835.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Deleting a liver enzyme lowers the health risk of sweet treats (at least in mice)<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ScienceDaily&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hepatic insulin resistance, caused by diets high in sugar and fat, can lead to type 2 diabetes.
