Interaction Information:

Comment Protein kinase C epsilon (PKCepsilon) is emerging as a key mediator of lipid-induced insulin resistance in liver and hepatic lipid metabolism itself. The levels of 20 compounds were altered similarly in livers from both WT and Prkce-/- high-fat-fed mice, indicating a consistent response to the high-fat diet. Alanine, ethanolamine and gamma-aminobutyric acid levels were reduced by approximately 50% by fat feeding, while tocopherol, sucrose and taurine levels were significantly increased. Prkce deletion resulted only in a reduction of 4-hydroxyproline and aspartate and an increase in glutamate.
