Connection among Glucose and Lipid Metabolism

Dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus assume significant parts in clinical medication since both are grounded cardiovascular danger factors and their treatment converts into clinical advantage. Numerous patients with type 2 diabetes have dyslipidemia and it is accepted that this dyslipidemia is significant in intervening the cardiovascular danger in diabetes. In any case, the connection among glucose and lipid digestion is substantially more mind boggling. This isn't astonishing considering the way that both, lipids and glucose assume a significant part in energy digestion and that both are managed by the liver. 
It is notable that diabetic patients frequently present with a normal dyslipidemia, described by raised fatty oils, low high thickness lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and prevalence of little thick low thickness lipoprotein (LDL) particles. Notwithstanding, more current exploration demonstrates that these lipid changes may not exclusively be the outcome of diabetes yet may likewise cause unsettling influences of glucose digestion.
