Abstract excerpt
Abnormal overexpression of GSK3β has been implicated in insulin resistance. Although many potent GSK3β inhibitors have been developed as drug candidates for anti-insulin resistance, the inhibitors are prone to show side effects because they interfere with normal GSK3β function without regulation. Recently, it was reported that the PPPSPxS motifs in the Wnt coreceptor LRP6 were able to directly inhibit GSK3β only...
