E4orf1: A protein for enhancing glucose uptake despite impaired proximal insulin signaling

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes is often linked with impaired proximal insulin signaling. Hence, a therapeutic agent that enhances cellular glucose uptake without requiring proximal insulin signaling would be desirable for improving glycemic control. The E4orf1 peptide (E4) derived from human adenovirus...
