Research Abstract |
The present study investigated whether diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs), enzymes functioning in sub-cellular signaling pathways, had a role on adiponectin-induced apoptosis and IL-6 secretion. This study suggested that the adiponectin-induced apoptosis and secretion of IL-6 involves DGKs.
