2型疾病

Type 2 diabetes involves having an intact pancreas and normal or elevated  blood sugar levels with cellular resistance to insulin. Eventually, the beta cells become so stimulated that they wear out, resulting in (Beta cell insufficiency) and worsened disease. This is primarily a disease of adulthood, but has been increasingly seen in obese children. Now about 40 to 50% of new cases of diabetes mellitus in children is type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes has been found to run in families, but no single genetic disorder has been identified. Type 2 diabetes is highly associated with (weight gain)and obesity. While genetics does play a role, there is a bigger role in a person's diet, exercise pattern, and lifestyle factors. Fat cells release various factors in type 2 diabetes that negatively impact the (metabolism) of glucose. There is slight evidence that prenatal factors predispose a person to developing type 2 diabetes.
