The mechanisms of insulin resistance in the obese Zucker rat have not been clearly established but increased diacylglycerol-protein kinase C (DAG-PKC) signalling has been associated with decreased glucose utilisation in states of insulin resistance and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to characterise tissue- and isoform-selective differences in DAG-PKC signalling in insulin-sensitive tissues from obese Zucker rats, and to assess the effects of feeding on… CONTINUE READING
