Deletion of SIRT1 in myeloid cells impairs glucose metabolism with enhancing inflammatory response to adipose tissue hypoxia

Chronic inflammation is a pathophysiology of insulin resistance in metabolic diseases, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) play important roles in this inflammatory process. SIRT1 is implicated in the regulation of glucose metabolism in some metabolic tissues, such as liver or skeletal muscle. This study was performed to investigate whether SIRT1 in macrophages played any roles in the regulation of inflammation...
