Insulin sensitizes FGF21 in glucose and lipid metabolisms via activating common AKT pathway
Previous studies reveal that fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) sensitizes insulin to achieve a synergy in regulating glucose metabolism. Here, we report that insulin sensitizes FGF21 in regulating both gluco...
