Effects of diabetes, insulin, and vanadium on regulation of glycogen synthesis : roles of glycogen synthase kinase-3 and protein phosphatase-1

Although the activation of muscle glycogen synthase by insulin was recognized 40 years ago (Villar-Palasi and Larner 1960), the molecular mechanisms of this insulin effect are still unclear. In the present study, we examined the in vivo effects of insulin and vanadium treatment on glycogen synthase...
