The Claim

The RELIANCE platform enables real-time, high-throughput measurement of insulin’s ability to suppress lipolysis in adipocytes, allowing identification of compounds that restore insulin sensitivity in insulin-resistant fat cells.

Supports is higher

Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.

These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.

How it works
1 study reviewed
In plain English

The RELIANCE platform measures how effectively insulin inhibits fat breakdown in fat cells and identifies compounds that restore this function in cells resistant to insulin.

See the scientific wording

The RELIANCE platform enables real-time, high-throughput measurement of insulin’s ability to suppress lipolysis in adipocytes, allowing identification of compounds that restore insulin sensitivity in insulin-resistant fat cells.

Why this might work

Certain metabolites bind to fat cells and improve how well insulin works, which turns off the enzyme that breaks down fat, causing less fat to be released.

  1. Study: 1093-OR: Metabolite-Driven Reversal of Adipocyte Insulin Resistance Identified by Reliance, a Novel Live Lipolysis Screening Platform

    Scientists created a new lab tool that can quickly test hundreds of substances to see which ones help insulin better control fat release from fat cells, even when those cells don’t respond well to insulin. They found several natural compounds that work well with this tool.
