Abstract excerpt
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is involved in multiple signaling pathways by down-regulating several tyrosine kinases. For example, gene-targeting studies in mice have established PTP1B as a critical physiologic regulator of metabolism by attenuating insulin signaling. PTP1B is an important target for the treatment of diabetes, because the PTP1B null mice are resistant to diet-induced diabetes and...
