## Abstract Insulin resistance is the primary cause responsible for type 2 diabetes. Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) plays a negative role in insulin signaling and its inhibition improves insulin sensitivity. Metformin is a widely used insulinβsensitizing drug; however, the mechanism by which
## Abstract Inadequate proliferation and/or differentiation of preadipocytes may lead to adipose tissue dysfunction characterized by hypertrophied, insulinβresistant adipocytes. Plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF) may alter adipose tissue function by promoting proliferation of preadipocytes. Two
