2/ Using the common molecular features from muscle & adipose we built a 120-gene RNA IR assay & found this multi-gene assay could rank families of active drugs by potency #novel Active drugs have many protein targets #not-novel

3/ The assay identified >200 +ve & -ve acting drugs – many proven to improve or impair insulin signalling. Not all +ve drugs will be safe to explore further but many had efficacy in recent MD models @mackinprof @eLIFE
