Insulin Signaling in Arthritis [PDF]
Inflammatory arthritis is burdened by an increased risk of metabolic disorders. Cytokines and other mediators in inflammatory diseases lead to insulin resistance, diabetes and hyperlipidemia.

Insulin signaling and autism [PDF]
Autism and autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are thought to be caused mostly by genetic factors with an additional contribution from unidentified environmental risk factors. Identifying these environmental risk factors could improve both prevention and development of therapeutics, but the nature of these factors is not well understood.

Insulin signaling and addiction [PDF]
Across species, the brain evolved to respond to natural rewards such as food and sex. These physiological responses are important for survival, reproduction and evolutionary processes. It is no surprise, therefore, that many of the neural circuits and signaling pathways supporting reward processes are conserved from Caenorhabditis elegans to ...

Insulin signalling in the heart [PDF]
The main role of insulin in the heart under physiological conditions is obviously the regulation of substrate utilization. Indeed, insulin promotes glucose uptake and its utilization via glycolysis. In addition, insulin participates in the regulation of long-chain fatty acid uptake, protein synthesis, and vascular tonicity.

Decoding the Insulin Signal [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Kubota et al. (2012) show how different temporal patterns of insulin are decoded by the AKT signaling network, providing both new mechanistic insights and physiological relevance.

Regulated in development and DNA damage responses -1 (REDD1) protein contributes to insulin signaling pathway in adipocytes. [PDF]
REDD1 (Regulated in development and DNA damage response 1) is a hypoxia and stress response gene and is a negative regulator of mTORC1. Since mTORC1 is involved in the negative feedback loop of insulin signaling, we have studied the role of REDD1 on ...

Insulin as an adiposity signal [PDF]
Insulin is now well established as an adiposity signal that acts in the brain to influence energy homeostasis. It is secreted in direct proportion to adiposity; it enters the brain from the blood, and it interacts with neurons in the ventral hypothalamus.

Molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in chronic liver disease [PDF]
The work presented here analyses the role of PP2A in the dysregulation of glucose metabolism in the setting of chronic hepatitis C. We propose a new model for virus induced insulin resistance development through the overexpression of PP2A in the liver ...
