Insulin Receptor and Type 2 Diabetes
type 2 diabetes July 8th. 2019, 9:23amPart 2 of two animations about type 2 diabetes.
This animation describes the role of the insulin receptor in type 2 diabetes. It focuses on the very recent discovery of how the hormone insulin actually binds to the receptor on the surface of cells, as determined by Professor Mike Lawrence’s laboratory at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute.
Insulin binds to the receptor protein on the cell surface and instructs the cell to take up glucose from the blood for use as an energy source. In type 2 diabetes, we believe that insulin binds to the receptor normally, but the signal is not sent into the cell, the cells do not take up glucose and the resulting high blood glucose levels cause organ damage over time.
Understanding how insulin interacts with its receptor is fundamental to the development of novel insulin for the treatment of diabetes.

Prednisone was applied to treat my pneumonia, nonetheless, the medication also stimulated the increase of my blood glucose levels that resulted in diabetic issues. During that time, my A1C is 10.1, which is very high. The good news is, I`ve learn about this easy guide “Gαjοjο Fivu” (Google it). I have been through a retesting Two months later and also the final result implies that (my A1C had decreased to 6.8 simply .3 above normal)..

Them main problem is not in Insulin Receptor, the main problem in human cells which is stuffed and filled with sugar so they can't accept more sugar that's why they resist the Insulin so the problem not in the receptor but the fatty sugary cells ……. so to fix this you need to fix your eaten habits stop eaten carbs, sweets, fruits, starches, sugars, dairy ….. etc and eat diet food, exercise, intermittent fasting it may takes long time 3, 4 years or more to fix this problem but you have to begin control your diet so that not progress and cause other problems like fatty liver or fatty pancreas which could lead to cancer .

what happens to the insulin after it binds to the receptor? what governs how long it stays bound and where does it go once its job is done?

This is some freaky shit.

awsome, thanks a lot for such a wonderful work

Thanks mates !

Can anyone who knows who can answer, does the hormone insulin. Increase if someone drinks a bit honey in a cup of green tea, and a touch milk, I can't quite get this answer.. When I search the net,

If you wish to remove diabetic issues and want to change to a healthier life-style, then you could rely on this “Gαjοjο Fivu” (Google it). The manual have taught me concerning how cells aren`t able to feed on glucose due to fat. With “Gαjοjο Fivu” (Search Google), I was able to avoid the dangerous effects of diabetes to my entire body, and ultimately, demise…

What's up with the extra loud crunch at 0:16 ?

This is beautiful!!

"We could design new insulins for the treatment of diabetes".
– Or you could just tell people to eat a low-fat plant-based diet.

As specialist, I'm sure Hybetez Remedy is actually great way to cures your diabetes naturally. Why don't you give it a chance? maybe it is going to work for you too.
July 8th, 2019 at 5:26 pm
yeah but why are the receptors broken ?
July 8th, 2019 at 5:50 pm
I don't get it
Is type 2 diabetes the lack of insulin production caused by high mortality of beta cells which in turn causes high blood glucose levels? (as stated in your inflammation and type 2 diabetes)
Or is type 2 diabetes the high insulin resistance of cells in the muscle and liver not taking up glucose and causing high blood glucose? (this video's explanation)

so how does the production of better insulin help for type II diabetes? it look like it's the receptor not working here right? I should probably ask in another place..
July 8th, 2019 at 7:16 pm
But what is reason that these receptros stop working ? And if they are not working, why insulin injcetion is working ?
July 8th, 2019 at 7:22 pm
its completely absurd how complex this is! i love biology!
