Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Insulin receptor substrate proteins (IRS) mediate various effects of insulin, including regulation of glucose homeostasis, cell growth and survival. To understand the underlying mechanisms explaining the effects of the Src-related tyrosine kinase GTK on beta-cell proliferation and survival, insulin-signalling pathways involving IRS-1 and IRS-2 were studied in islet cells and RINm5F cells...
