Insulin is a potent adipogenic hormone that triggers an induction of series transcription factors governing differentiation pre-adipocytes into mature adipocytes. However, the exact link between insulin signaling cascade and intrinsic adipogenesis remains incompletely understood. Herein we demonstrate inhibition prenylation p21ras Rho-A arrests insulin-stimulated adipogenesis. Inhibition farnesylation also blocked ability to activate mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cyclic AMP response...

Voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs) are multimeric complexes composed of a pore-forming α 1 subunit together with several accessory subunits, including 2 δ, β, and, in some cases, γ subunits. A family VDCCs known as the L-type formed specifically from 1S (skeletal muscle), 1C (in heart and brain), 1D (mainly brain, heart, endocrine tissue), 1F (retina). Neuroendocrine currents have significant role control neurosecretion can be inhibited by GTP-binding (G-) proteins. However,...

We hypothesized that diabetes and glucose-induced reactive oxygen species lead to depletion of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) content in the vasculature. In primary cultures smooth muscle cells (SMC) high medium glucose decreased CREB function but increased SMC chemokinesis entry into cell cycle. These effects were blocked by pretreatment with antioxidants. High intracellular detected CM-H<sub>2</sub>DCFA. exposed oxidative stress (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) demonstrated a...
