Abstract

The existence of peripheral oscillators has been shown, and they are critically important for organizing the metabolism of the whole body. Here we show that mice deficient in mPer2 markedly increase circulatory levels of insulin compared with wild type mice. Insulin secretion was more effectively stimulated by glucose, and alloxan, a glucose analogue, induced more severe hyperglycemia in mPer2-deficient mice. Hepatic insulin degrading enzyme (Ide) displayed an obvious day and night rhythm, which was impaired in mPer2-deficient mice, leading to a decrease in insulin clearance. Deficiency in mPer2 caused increased Clock expression and decreased expression of Mkp1 and Ide1, possibly underlying the observed phenotypes and suggesting that mPer2 plays a role in regulation of circulating insulin levels.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
