ONEONTA, N.Y. -- Dr. Allan Green of the Bassett Research Institute and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the SUNY College at Oneonta will offer a presentation entitled "Fat Cells, Fatty Acids and Type 2 Diabetes" on Friday, May 1, at 4 p.m. in room 132 of the Human Ecology Building at SUNY Oneonta. Admission to the event is complimentary, and members of the community are invited to attend.
Dr. Green will discuss the relationships among fat cells, fatty acids, and type 2 diabetes. He will explore the regulation of adipocyte lipolysis and its importance in understanding the relationship between obesity and diabetes. Research has identified novel mechanisms for regulation of adipocyte lipolysis, and the findings suggest new targets for development of drugs to prevent or treat type 2 diabetes.
