Magnesium supplementation enhances insulin sensitivity and decreases insulin resistance in diabetic rats [PDF]
Objective(s): Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of magnesium supplementation on insulin receptor activity in ...

Insulin and Insulin Receptor Variants: Structural and Functional Insights into Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance (IR), a defining pathological feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus, results from impaired signaling through the insulin receptor (INSR).

Insulin receptor has tyrosine kinase activity toward Shc in rat liver
Insulin induces tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc in cell cultures and in insulin-sensitive tissues of the intact rat. However, the ability of insulin receptor (IR) tyrosine kinase to phosphorylate Shc has not been previously demonstrated.

The Insulin Receptor Mediates Insulin’s Early Plasma Clearance by Liver, Muscle, and Kidney
The role of the insulin receptor in mediating tissue-specific insulin clearance in vivo has not been reported. Using physiologic insulin doses, we measured the initial clearance rate (first 5 min) of intravenously injected ([125I]TyrA14)-insulin by ...

BackgroundIon transport in the renal proximal tubule (RPT), which is increased in essential hypertension, is regulated by numerous hormones and humoral factors, including insulin and dopamine. Activation of dopamine receptor inhibits sodium reabsorption,

Insulin and insulin receptors in rodent brain [PDF]
While insulin effects on the central nervous system (CNS) mediated through hypoglycaemia are well known, direct insulin effects on the CNS remain controversial. Recently, we found insulin receptors in all areas of the rat brain, with highest concentrations in the olfactory bulb, cerebral cortex and hypothalamus; all areas involved in feeding.

Insulin-like peptides, such as insulin and insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), induce a variety of bioactivities, such as growth, differentiation, survival, increased anabolism and decreased catabolism in many cell types and in vivo.
