Growth hormone promotes hepatic gluconeogenesis by enhancing BTG2–YY1 signaling pathway

Abstract Growth hormone (GH) is one of the critical factors in maintaining glucose metabolism. B-cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) and yin yang 1 (YY1) are key regulators of diverse metabolic processes. In this study, we investigated the link between GH and BTG2–YY1 signaling pathway in glucose metab...
