Schematic representing the increase in ROS by high fat, glucose or excessive heme levels that in turn increase the generation of oxidized HDL and isoprostane. Enlargement of adipocytes causes alterations in the secretion of adipokines. Increased adipocyte size can lead to deleterious alterations in insulin sensitivity caused by a decrease in adiponectin secretion and the induction of inflammatory mediators.
