Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) as a common chronic disease with an increasing prevalence worldwide that poses a great threat to individual health, and is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from insulin resistance (IR) coupled with β-cell dysfunction. Mitochondrial dysfunction, obesity, gut microbiota, oxidative stress and inflammation have emerged as a significant contributor to the etiology of T2DM, affecting various metabolic processes critical for glucose homeostasis. This short review underscores their role in enhancing T2DM-related molecular mechanisms and explores recent advancements in diabetic management, further highlights the importance of personalized care plans to address the complexities of the T2DM and aims to improve patient quality of life and long-term health outcome.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Endocrinology is a field journal of the "Frontiers in" journal series.
In today’s world, endocrinology is becoming increasingly important as it underlies many of the challenges societies face - from obesity and diabetes to reproduction, population control and aging. Endocrinology covers a broad field from basic molecular and cellular communication through to clinical care and some of the most crucial public health issues. The journal, thus, welcomes outstanding contributions in any domain of endocrinology.
Frontiers in Endocrinology publishes articles on the most outstanding discoveries across a wide research spectrum of Endocrinology. The mission of Frontiers in Endocrinology is to bring all relevant Endocrinology areas together on a single platform.
