Insulin regulates the activity of both protein kinases and phosphatases. Little is known concerning the subcellular effects of insulin on phosphatase activity and how it is affected by insulin resistance. The purpose of this study was to determine insulin-stimulated subcellular changes in phosphatas
Insulin has both short- and long-term effects on cellular metabolism. The short-term effects are known to involve the insulin receptor, a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating itself and other proteins. The role of the receptor was elucidated by studies of a mutant insulin receptor which lacked

We investigated the effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C (PKC) activator on insulin receptors and insulin action in freshly isolated and primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. PMA (1 x 10(-7) M) did not alter insulin receptor numbers or affinity either acutely or chronic
