Insulin Receptor Takes Center Stage
Jeffrey Perkel | Sep 2, 2001 | 6 min read
The defining characteristic of diabetes is its failure to properly maintain blood glucose levels. Normally, the elevated glucose concentration that occurs after eating induces the release of the hormone insulin from pancreatic beta cells. Cells expressing the insulin receptor can bind insulin and respond to the signal, thereby maintaining glucose homeostasis through changes in gene expression patterns and cellular metabolism. Insulin-induced effects include enhanced glucose uptake and glycogen s
