Abstract excerpt
We compared the effectiveness of insulin receptor (IR) and type I insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor (IGFR) cytoplasmic domains in mediating anti-apoptotic effects in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes. We used TrkC/IR and TrkC/IGFR chimeras, stably expressed in these cells and stimulated with neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), so as to avoid interference from endogenous receptors. After 24-h serum deprivation, 10%...
