Role of fructose and uric acid in obesity and insulin resistance
... Obesity and type 2 diabetes have been linked with the increase in consumption of added fructose-containing sugars. Fructose is distinct from other sugars in its initial metabolism via ketohexokinase (KHK), which bypasses regulated steps of glycolysis and rapidly depletes ATP followed by purine degra ...
