1755-P: Insulin-Mediated Glucose Disposal and Muscle Microvascular Recruitment Are Mutual Predictors in Humans

Insulin recruits muscle microvasculature to enhance insulin and nutrient delivery. Insulin resistance (IR) blunts this microvascular action. While metabolic and microvascular IR usually coexist, and phenotypic traits which foretell metabolic IR are well established, those which predict microvascular IR are unknown. To test whether metabolic IR and its associated traits predict microvascular IR, we performed euglycemic insulin clamps (1...
