Researchers at the Buck Institute for Age Research have discovered a novel way in which insulin affects cell metabolism and cell survival. Surprisingly the insulin signalling pathway, which is involved in ageing, diabetes and stress response, is active at a deeper level of cell activity than scientists expected.
