Absence of S6K1 protects against age- and diet-induced obesity while enhancing insulin sensitivity

TL;DR: It is reported that S6K1-deficient mice are protected against obesity owing to enhanced β-oxidation, however on a high fat diet, levels of glucose and free fatty acids still rise in S6k1- deficient mice, resulting in insulin receptor desensitization.

Absence of S6K1 protects against age- and diet-induced obesity while enhancing insulin sensitivity. [Erratum: 2004 Sept. 23, v. 431, no. 7007, p. 485.]

TL;DR: In this article, S6K1-deficient mice are protected against obesity owing to enhanced β-oxidation, but on a high fat diet, levels of glucose and free fatty acids still rise in S6k1-dependent mice, resulting in insulin receptor desensitization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear receptors and the control of metabolism.

TL;DR: Altered signaling by this subset of receptors may cause an imbalance in these homeostatic circuits and contribute to the pathogenesis of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis, and gallbladder disease.

Sirt1 Regulates Insulin Secretion by Repressing UCP2 in Pancreatic b Cells

TL;DR: In this article, Sirt1 positively regulates insulin secretion in pancreatic b cells and showed that the up-regulation of UCP2 is associated with a failure of cells to increase ATP levels after glucose stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

SRC-1 and TIF2 Control Energy Balance between White and Brown Adipose Tissues

TL;DR: Results reveal that the relative level of TIF2/SRC-1 can modulate energy metabolism, which may contribute to weight gain on a high-fat diet.
