Suppression of insulin target gene expression by SecinH3 quantified by real-time PCR

External protocol Created on 03 May 2014

Authors

Markus Hafner, Anton Schmitz, and Michael Famulok

Summary

SecinH3 causes insulin resistance in mouse liver and in cell culture by inhibiting cytohesins that are effectors of the insulin signalling pathway. Stimulation with insulin leads to increased transcription of glycolytic genes, to suppressed transcription of gluconeogenetic genes and IGFBP1 in liver and in HepG2 cells. These insulin effects can be reverted by SecinH3. We quantified gene expression levels by real-time PCR.
