Concentration-dependent dual effects of hydrogen peroxide on insulin signal transduction in H4IIEC hepatocytes.
BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress induced by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has a causal role in the development of insulin resistance, whereas ROS themselves function as intracellular second messengers that promote insulin signal transduction. ROS can act both positively and negativel...
