Insulin signaling

Insulin signaling influences energy metabolism as well as growth. The presence of insulin signals the fed state, and this signal is passed via the AKT branch, which leads to the uptake of glucose from the blood. Other branches of the signal cascade lead to cell growth and differentation.

胰岛素信号传导不仅影响能量代谢，亦作用于生长发育。胰岛素信号的呈现标志着进食状态，该信号通过 AKT 分支传递，进而导致葡萄糖从血液中的摄取。信号级联的其他分支则引导细胞生长与分化。
