Energy depletion itself is an excitatory state, that calls for increased fuel and oxygen. But when cells are exposed to PUFA, their ability to use glucose is blocked, increasing their exposure to the fats. Saturated fats activate the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme that is essential for the efficient use of glucose, while PUFA block it. -Ray Peat, [...]

Chung CH, Hao E, Piran R, Keinan E, Levine F. Because type 1 and type 2 diabetes are characterized by loss of β-cells, β-cell regeneration has garnered great interest as an approach to diabetes [...]
Endocrinology. 2003 Jun;144(6):2404-8. In vitro inhibition of insulin-degrading enzyme by long-chain fatty acids and their coenzyme A thioesters. Hamel FG, Upward JL, Bennett RG. Insulin-degrading enzyme is responsible for initiating insulin degradation in cells, but little is known about the factors controlling its activity. Because obesity and high levels of free fatty acids decrease insulin [...]
