The Zinc Transporter Zip7 Is Downregulated in Skeletal Muscle of Insulin-Resistant Cells and in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

The Zinc Transporter Zip7 Is Downregulated in Skeletal Muscle of Insulin-Resistant Cells and in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

Background: The zinc transporter Zip7 modulates zinc flux and controls cell signaling molecules associated with glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle. The present study evaluated the role of Zip7 in cell signaling pathways involved in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle and mice fed a high-fat diet. M...
