Figure 2. The effect of BAD phosphorylation on gluconeogenesis.
(A) Immunoblot analysis and quantification of relative BAD phosphorylation on S155, S136 and S112 in liver samples derived from C57BL/6J mice fasted overnight and re-fed for 6 hr after overnight fasting.
(B) PTT in Bad +/+ and S155A knock-in mice (n=10–11).
(C) PTT in Bad +/+ and −/− mice following hepatic reconstitution with the indicated adenoviruses (n=16–24). Asterisks in (C) compare Bad −/−: BAD S155D vs. Bad −/−: GFP and the symbols # compare Bad −/−: BAD WT vs. Bad −/−: GFP.
(D) Glucose production in primary Bad −/− hepatocytes reconstituted with the indicated adenoviruses and treated with lactate/pyruvate (n=7–12).
Error bars, ± SEM. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001; n.s., non-significant.
