Brief Summary: The target of rapamycin complex 2 TORC2 is an evolutionarily conserved serinethreonine protein kinase that controls growth and metabolism In mammals including humans mammalian TOR complex 2mTORC2 contains mammalian TOR mTOR RICTOR mSIN1 protein and mLST8 gene In an animal model the adipose-specific rictor knockout AdRiKO mouse systemic insulin resistance hepatic steatosis and cardiovascular dysfunction develop upon high fat diet HFD-induced obesity or aging To find a molecular link between adipose mTORC2 and systemic insulin resistance investigators have already performed transcriptomics and proteomics analysis on visceral white adipose tissue in a mouse model The aim of the study is to confirm a molecular link between adipose mTORC2 and systemic insulin resistance in humans
