IGF1R is a mediator of sex-specific metabolism in mice: Effects of age and high-fat diet

ObjectiveWe aimed to investigate the short and long-term metabolic consequences of IGF1R systemic gene deficiency in mice.MethodsUBC-CreERT2, Igf1rfl/fl mutant mice were used to suppress IGF1R signaling in adult tissues by inducing postnatal generalized Igf1r deletion with tamoxifen. Animals were an...
