Adipocyte Gq signaling is a regulator of glucose and lipid homeostasis in mice

Obesity impairs regulation of adipocyte lipolysis, which contributes towards development of insulin resistance. Here the authors report that adipocyte Gq signaling functions as a regulator of lipolysis and systemic glucose and lipid homeostasis in mice, suggesting that agents able to stimulate this...

description Obesity impairs regulation of adipocyte lipolysis, which contributes towards development of insulin resistance. Here the authors report that adipocyte Gq signaling functions as a regulator of lipolysis and systemic glucose and lipid homeostasis in mice, suggesting that agents able to stimulate this pathway may prove useful as antidiabetic drugs.
