Brief description Diabetes and obesity are epidemic in the developed world. Impaired insulin action is a major cause. A key contributor is reduced glucose uptake into muscle and fat driving the pancreas to overproduce insulin. We have recently discovered three new molecules that we believe hold the secret to how insulin regulates the removal of the glucose from the blood stream after a meal. This proposal focuses on these three molecules and their regulation.
