During insulin resistance, lipid uptake by the liver is promoted by peroxisome proliferator-activated protein (PPAR) γ upregulation, leading to hepatic steatosis. Insulin, however, does not directly regulate adipogenic gene expression in l...
Morphological profiling by means of the Cell Painting assay enables identification of tubulin-targeting compounds [0.03%]
