Molecular

ALOXE3 is activated during fasting and enhances insulin sensitivity via hepatic PPARγ.

Targeting ALOXE3 may be a viable strategy for improving insulin sensitivity in metabolic diseases.

StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Here, we demonstrate the lipoxygenase, ALOXE3, is a novel effector of the hepatic fasting response.
