Examination of the ability of tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF) to activate both the p44/42 and p38 MAP kinase cascades in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes indicated a rapid MEK1/2-dependent activation of p44/42 MAP kinase. Use of the MEK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 indicated that this pathway at least i

## Abstract Amyloid precursor protein (APP) has been characterized as an adipocyte‐secreted protein that might contribute to obesity‐related insulin resistance, inflammation, and dementia. In the current study, regulation of APP by the proinflammatory and insulin resistance‐inducing cytokine tumor
## Abstract The combined effect of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and cAMP on glucose transport in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes was examined. In cells pretreated with PGF2α and 8‐bromo cAMP for 8 h, a synergy between these two agents on glucose uptake was found. Insulin‐stimulated glucose transport, on the other h
