Abstract
The present invention discloses a screening method for a substance, which could be a therapeutic agent for diabetes with insulin resistance through regulating a function of a molecule involved in insulin signaling pathway. More specifically, the present invention discloses a screening method for a substance having hypoglycemic activity, which is characterized by contacting a sample to STAT-induced inhibitor of STAT function-1 in the presence of insulin, and by detecting inhibitory activity of STAT-induced inhibitor of STAT function-1 by a substance in the sample, as an index.
