mTOR inhibition with rapamycin cause impaired insulin signalling and glucose uptake in human subcutaneous and omental adipocytes
Rapamycin is an immunosuppressive agent used after organ transplantation, but its molecular effects on glucose metabolism needs further evaluation. We explored rapamycin effects on glucose uptake and insulin signalling proteins in adipocytes obtained via subcutaneous (n = 62) and omental (n = 10) fa...
