2-oxo-3-methylvalerate and Insulin Resistance

2-oxo-3-methylvalerate has been researched along with Insulin Resistance in 1 studies

alpha-keto-beta-methylvaleric acid: RN given refers to parent cpd
3-methyl-2-oxovaleric acid : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is valeric acid carrying oxo- and methyl substituents at C-2 and C-3, respectively. An alpha-keto acid analogue and metabolite of isoleucine in man, animals and bacteria. Used as a clinical marker for maple syrup urine disease (MSUD).

Insulin Resistance: Diminished effectiveness of INSULIN in lowering blood sugar levels: requiring the use of 200 units or more of insulin per day to prevent HYPERGLYCEMIA or KETOSIS.
