Description
Summary:1  Departments of Physiology and Biophysics and 2  Internal Medicine, University of Campinas 6040 Campinas; and 3  Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of São Paulo, 05508-900 Sao Paulo, Brazil Short-term muscle denervation is a reproducible model of tissue-specific insulin resistance. To investigate the molecular basis of insulin resistance in denervated muscle, the downstream signaling molecules of the insulin-signaling pathway were examined in intact and denervated soleus muscle of rats. Short-term denervation induced a significant fall in glucose clearance rates (62% of control, P
