This study demonstrates that CPE inhibits IR kinase activity and its proliferative downstream signaling markers, such as ERK and Akt, in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, and also prevents the development of obesity in mice fed with a HFD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
