Abstract

The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is growing steadily around the world, and the effectiveness of glycemic control in this disease is still insufficient. The pathogenetic mechanisms of DM2 are discussed. The important role of insulin resistance as a key element in the development of DM2 is emphasized. The molecular mechanisms of action of metformin are considered in detail; its glycemic and extraglycemic effects, and the place of this drug in modern therapy of type 2 diabetes are analyzed.
