Deletion of IRS-1 leads to growth failure and insulin resistance with downregulation of liver and muscle insulin signaling in rats by Yuka Toyoshima, Katsuyuki Nakamura, Yusuke Taguchi, Reiko Tokita, Shiho Takeuchi, Hayato Osawa, Naomi Teramoto, Hidetoshi Sugihara, Fumiaki Yoshizawa, Keitaro Yamanouchi, Shiro Minami

“…The physiological functions of these proteins have been intensively investigated in mice, while little is known in other animals. Our previous study showed that the disruption of IRS-2 impairs body growth but not glucose tolerance or insulin sensitivity in rats, which led us to hypothesize that IRS-1 plays more pivotal roles in insulin functions than IRS-2. …”
