Anti-insulin receptor serum mimics the developmental role of insulin in mouse mammary explants.

abstract：:It has been generally viewed that salicylates ameliorate type 2 diabetes through interfering with the NF-kappaB signaling. Earlier studies indicated that IKKbeta was the key for the development of insulin resistance. However, it was unknown whether IKKbeta itself, or its downstream target, NF-kappaB, plays major roles...
