Abstract: A method of screening for a candidate compound for the treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of metabolism in a mammal, said method comprising bringing a compound into contact with at least one population of cells, comprising cells that express mTOR and Akt and that are capable of activating mTORC2 and Akt; determining mTORC2 activity and Akt activity in cells brought into contact with the compound, and identifying the candidate compound based on the determined mTORC2 activity and Akt activity. A kit for use in such a method of. A compound for use in a method of treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of metabolism in a mammal, and a method of treatment of such a condition.
Abstract: A method to identify a candidate compound for use in the treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of glucose homeostasis or of glucose uptake in a mammal, by identifying a candidate compound that causes an increase in translocation of GLUT without causing an increase in the production of cAMP. A kit for use in such a method. A method of treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of glucose homeostasis or of glucose uptake in a mammal and a compound for use in such a method.

Abstract: A method of screening for a candidate compound for the treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of metabolism in a mammal, by bringing a compound into contact with cells that express a GPCR and that further express a GRK, determining whether the contacting causes a response of the GRK in cells brought into contact with the compound, determining whether the contacting causes a response of a classical secondary messenger in cells brought into contact with the compound; and identifying the candidate compound based on the determined GRK response and response of a classical secondary messenger in the cells. A kit for use in the method. A compound for use in the treatment of a condition involving dysregulation of metabolism in a mammal and a method of treatment of such a condition.
