The effect of metformin on hepatocyte insulin receptor binding was examined in normal, streptozotocin diabetic and genetically obese diabetic (ob/ob) mice. In normal mice, chronic administration of metformin (60 mg X kg-1 X day-1 for 50 weeks) increased the number of low affinity receptors by 148%.
