Abstract:IDE is a ubiquitous metalloprotease with cytosolic and mitochondrial subcellular localization that degrades insulin and glucagon. People with T2D and diet-induced obese mice show lower hepatic IDE levels. We revealed a key role of IDE on the insulin-mediated repression of hepatic gluconeogenesis, but its function on glucagon-dependent activation of gluconeogenesis and mitochondrial respiration in hepatocytes remains completely unknown. Here, we aim to elucidate the role of IDE on glucagon signalling and its im… Show more
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.
