Blockade of the Akt/mTOR pathway downregulated GLUT2, GCK, PDX-1, and INS upregulated by APS in LPS-stimulated INS-1 cells. INS-1 cells were treated as indicated for 24 h. Untreated cells were included as a control. The mRNA levels of GLUT2 (A), GCK (B), PDX-1 (C), and INS (D) were determined by qRT-PCR. n = 3, *,#,ΔP < 0.05, **,##,ΔΔP < 0.01
