Excess glucose or fat differentially affects metabolism and appetite-related gene expression during zebrafish embryogenesis

“…Insulin increases glycolytic and lipogenic enzyme activity. 15 , 16 Glucose diffusion into and out of cells is dependent on insulin-mediated activation of GLUT4 glucose transporters. 17 Insulin primarily promotes glucose utilization through insulin-induced glucose absorption in muscle and adipose tissue.…”
