Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake partly relies on p21-activated kinase 2 (PAK2), but not PAK1, in mouse skeletal muscle.

In conclusion, glucose tolerance and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake partly rely on PAK2 in glycolytic mouse muscle, while PAK1 is dispensable for whole-body glucose homeostasis and insulin-stimulated muscle glucose uptake. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
