Oxidative stress and stress-activated signaling pathways: a unifying hypothesis of type 2 diabetesJoseph L Evans
University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
Endocr Rev 23:599-622. 2002..Studies with antioxidants such as vitamin E, alpha-lipoic acid, and N-acetylcysteine suggest that new strategies may become available to treat these conditions...
Are oxidative stress-activated signaling pathways mediators of insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction?Joseph L Evans

Effective treatments for insulin resistance: trim the fat and douse the fireJoseph L Evans
Medical Research Institute, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA
Trends Endocrinol Metab 15:425-31. 2004..One antioxidant that is safe and appears effective is alpha-lipoic acid. Thus, combinations of surgery, exercise training, insulin sensitizers and antioxidants will probably constitute future insulin resistance management...
Effects of controlled-release alpha lipoic acid in lean, nondiabetic patients with polycystic ovary syndromeUmesh Masharani
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, Diabetes Center, San Francisco, California 94143, USA

University of California at San Francisco, Mount Zion Medical Center, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
J Clin Endocrinol Metab 87:4088-93. 2002..Moreover, the observation that TLK16998 and Merck L7 improved IR tyrosine phosphorylation in fibroblasts from patients with PCOS suggests that specific pharmacological therapies might be developed to treat the insulin resistance in PCOS...
