Insulin has diverse effects on cells, including stimulation of glucose transport, gene expression, and alterations of cell morphology. The hormone mediates these effects by activation of signaling pathways which utilize, 1) adaptor molecules such as the insulin receptor substrates (IRS), the Src and

When 3T3-L1 preadipose cells are exposed to transforming growth factor b (TGFb), they synthesize more extracellular matrix (ECM) and resist differentiationinducing stimuli. The mechanism by which ECM suppresses adipose cell differentiation (adipogenesis) remains unknown. Since adipogenesis is an ins
