Amelioration of Glucose Intolerance by the Synthetic Androstene HE3286: Link to Inflammatory Pathways

TL;DR: It is suggested that HE3286 improves glucose homeostasis in diabetic and insulin-resistant mice and suggest that the observed therapeutic effects result from attenuation of proinflammatory pathways, independent of classic sex steroid receptors, corticosteroid receptors, or PPARs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tyrosine kinase-defective insulin receptors undergo insulin-induced microaggregation but do not concentrate in coated pits.

TL;DR: The results suggest that ATP binding, receptor autophosphorylation, and activation of receptor kinase activity are not required for receptor microaggregation and ligand-induced receptor-mediated internalization or the biological effects of insulin is not sufficient.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of an organoinsulin molecule that can be activated by antibody catalysis

TL;DR: It is proposed that these results are the foundation for an in vivo regulated system of insulin activation using the prohormone insulinD and catalytic antibody 38C2 with potential therapeutic application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetic relationships between insulin receptor binding and effects on glucose transport in isolated rat adipocytes.

TL;DR: The role of insulin receptor occupancy in the stimulation of glucose transport has been studied in isolated rat adipocytes as mentioned in this paper, showing that a low level of insulin binding (less than 1% occupancy) is all that is necessary to initiate the insulin stimulus-response sequence.
