Insulin signaling pathway. The metabolic PI3K branch of insulin signaling pathway and tissue-specific actions of insulin are shown. PI3K branch of insulin signaling pathway plays a major role in gluconeogenesis in the liver, enhances NO production in the endothelium and heart, and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and heart.
