Defective insulin clearance plays a primary role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease in mice with null deletion of <i>Ceacam2</i> gene
2025-11-26
Abstract excerpt
Endogenous insulin clearance occurs primarily in hepatocytes and to a lower extent in kidney’s proximal tubule cells (KPTCs). CEACAM1 promotes receptor-mediated insulin uptake to be degraded in hepatocytes in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. Its deletion/inactivation causes hyperinsulinemia-driven insulin resistance, steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis. CEACAM2, the dominant CEACAM protein in murine KPTCs, share...
