✦ Synopsis


The role of protein kinase C in insulin signal transduction is controversial It has been postulated that protein kinase C is activated by insulin and that the kinase is directly involved in insulin-mediated metabolic processes In opposition to this view is the hypothesis that protein kinase C is not activated by insulin and, more importantly, may be responsible for attenuation of the insulin signal The evidence for and against protein kinase C as a mediator of the insulin signal will be put in perspective followed by discussion of the possible role of the kinase in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance in type II diabetes

Nonalcoholic steatosis (fatty liver) is a major cause of liver dysfunction that is associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. The cJun NH 2 -terminal kinase 1 (JNK1) signaling pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic steatosis and drugs that target JNK1 may be useful for

The insulin modulation of Na-H antiport in rat hepatocytes was studied using the fluorescent, pH-sensitive intracellular probe, 2',7' bis (carboxyethyl)-5(6)-car- boxyfluorescein (BCECF). Our data show that insulin stimulates the Na-H antiport. The dose-response of insulin effect shows a behavior ty
