The protein tyrosine phosphatase Src homology region 2 domain-containing phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) plays an important role in modulating glucose and lipid homeostasis. We previously suggested a potential role of SHP-1 in the regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2) expression and
