Abstract
► The pathophysiological link between NAFLD and hepatic insulin resistance is unknown. ► We studied the effect of postprandial lipoproteins on hepatic insulin sensitivity. ► Postprandial lipoproteins cause liver steatosis and hepatic insulin resistance. ► We characterize the underlying molecular mechanisms. ► Postprandial lipoproteins are a link between NAFLD and hepatic insulin resistance.
