Extension of Life-Span by Loss of CHICO, a Drosophila Insulin Receptor Substrate Protein
The Drosophila melanogaster gene chicoencodes an insulin receptor substrate that functions in an insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, insulin/IGF signaling regulates adult longevity. We found

Class-switched anti-insulin antibodies originate from unconventional antigen presentation in multiple lymphoid sites [PDF]
Autoantibodies to insulin are a harbinger of autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes in humans and in non-obese diabetic mice. To understand the genesis of these autoantibodies, we investigated the interactions of insulin-specific T and B lymphocytes using T ...

To identify structural characteristics of the closely related cell surface receptors for insulin and IGF‐I that define their distinct physiological roles, we determined the complete primary structure of the human IGF‐I receptor from cloned cDNA.

Security, extensibility, and redundancy in the Metabolic Operating System [PDF]
People living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) lose the ability to produce insulin naturally. To compensate, they inject synthetic insulin. One common way to inject insulin is through automated insulin delivery systems, which use sensors to monitor their metabolic state and an insulin pump device to adjust insulin to adapt.

Effect of diet-induced obesity on protein expression in insulin signalling pathways of skeletal muscle in male Wistar rats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of diet-induced obesity is increasing globally, and posing significant health problems for millions of people worldwide. Diet-induced obesity is a major contributor to the global pandemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Cryo-EM structure of the complete and ligand-saturated insulin receptor ectodomain [PDF]
Glucose homeostasis and growth essentially depend on the hormone insulin engaging its receptor. Despite biochemical and structural advances, a fundamental contradiction has persisted in the current understanding of insulin ligand-receptor interactions ...

The relationship between insulin binding, insulin activation of insulin-receptor tyrosine kinase, and insulin stimulation of glucose uptake in isolated rat adipocytes [PDF]
We have studied the relationship between insulin activation of insulin-receptor kinase and insulin stimulation of glucose uptake in isolated rat adipocytes.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.
