Functional selectivity of insulin receptor revealed by aptamer-trapped receptor structures
Nature Communications, 2022 DNA aptamers can activate insulin receptor as selective agonists or positive allosteric modulators. Here, authors determine structures of the insulin receptor bound to aptamers and provide a basis for the selective activation or allosteric regulation of ...

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2023 Severe insulin resistance can be caused by rare genetic defects in the insulin receptor known as insulin receptoropathies. These genetic defects cause a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations ranging from mild syndromes to lethal disorders. Among those

Insulin receptor has tyrosine kinase activity toward Shc in rat liver
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998 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.

An insulin receptor mutant (Asp707 → Ala), involved in leprechaunism, is processed and transported to the cell surface but unable to bind insulin [PDF]
, 1996 We have identified a homozygous mutation near the carboxyl terminus of the insulin receptor (IR) α subunit from a leprechaun patient, changing Asp707 into Ala. Fibroblasts from this patient had no high affinity insulin binding sites.

Insulin and GLP-1 infusions demonstrate the onset of adipose-specific insulin resistance in a large fasting mammal: potential glucogenic role for GLP-1. [PDF]
, 2013 Prolonged food deprivation increases lipid oxidation and utilization, which may contribute to the onset of the insulin resistance associated with fasting.

The Insulin Receptor Mediates Insulin’s Early Plasma Clearance by Liver, Muscle, and Kidney
Biomedicines, 2021 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 ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016 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,
