Molecular mechanisms involved in lead induced disruption of hepatic and pancreatic glucose metabolism

Highlights • Lead can disrupt glucose homeostasis by affecting pancreas and liver. • It impairs insulin secretion from pancreas through endoplasmic reticulum stress. • Inhibitory effect of insulin on gluconeogenesis in liver was impaired by lead. • Chronic exposure to lead can be a risk factor for i...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Lead can disrupt glucose homeostasis by affecting pancreas and liver. • It impairs insulin secretion from pancreas through endoplasmic reticulum stress. • Inhibitory effect of insulin on gluconeogenesis in liver was impaired by lead. • Chronic exposure to lead can be a risk factor for insulin resistance and diabetes.
