Insulin Sensitivity and Resistance Data for hPSC-Derived Cell Models

Supporting data for a 2026 article on modeling physiological insulin sensitivity and pre-diabetic insulin resistance. The dataset underpins a protocol for generating insulin-sensitive or insulin-resistant cells from human pluripotent stem cells. It was authored by Max Friesen and published on figshare.

Use Cases

• Modeling insulin sensitivity metrics across multiple hPSC-derived cell types.
• Analyzing protocol-generated data to compare insulin-resistant versus insulin-sensitive cell states.
• Validating the developed platform's outputs for metabolic disease studies.

Strengths

• Data supports a published protocol for generating insulin-sensitive/resistant cells.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Unknown sample size, row count, and specific features.
• Data scope is limited to the specific cell models and protocol described.
