Syntaxin 4 transgenic mice exhibit enhanced insulin-mediated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle.
Insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 vesicles from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane in 3T3L1 adipocytes is mediated through a syntaxin 4 (Syn4)- and Munc18c-dependent mechanism. To investigate the impact of increasing Syn4 protein abundance on glucose homeostasis in vivo, we engineered tetracycline-repressible transgenic mice to overexpress Syn4 by fivefold in skeletal m...
متن کاملEnhanced Stimulation of Glucose Uptake by Insulin Increases Exercise-Stimulated Glucose Uptake in Skeletal Muscle in Humans
In vitro studies have shown that insulin and exercise stimulate glucose uptake in part via distinct mechanisms. We determined whether a high rate of insulinstimulated glucose uptake (good insulin sensitivity) is associated with an enhanced ability of exercise to increase glucose uptake in vivo in humans. In our study, 22 normal subjects performed one-legged isometric exercise for 105 min (45–15...
متن کاملIncreased Systemic Glucose Tolerance with Increased Muscle Glucose Uptake in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing RXRγ in Skeletal Muscle
BACKGROUND Retinoid X receptor (RXR) γ is a nuclear receptor-type transcription factor expressed mostly in skeletal muscle, and regulated by nutritional conditions. Previously, we established transgenic mice overexpressing RXRγ in skeletal muscle (RXRγ mice), which showed lower blood glucose than the control mice. Here we investigated their glucose metabolism. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS R...
متن کاملConstitutively Active CaMKKα Stimulates Skeletal Muscle Glucose Uptake in Insulin-Resistant Mice In Vivo
In insulin-sensitive skeletal muscle, the expression of constitutively active Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase α (caCaMKKα) stimulates glucose uptake independent of insulin signaling (i.e., Akt and Akt-dependent TBC1D1/TBC1D4 phosphorylation). Our objectives were to determine whether caCaMKKα could stimulate glucose uptake additively with insulin in insulin-sensitive muscle, in...
متن کاملInsulin-sensitive regulation of glucose transport and GLUT4 translocation in skeletal muscle of GLUT1 transgenic mice.
Skeletal muscle glucose transport was examined in transgenic mice overexpressing the glucose transporter GLUT1 using both the isolated incubated-muscle preparation and the hind-limb perfusion technique. In the absence of insulin, 2-deoxy-d-glucose uptake was increased approximately 3-8-fold in isolated fast-twitch muscles of GLUT1 transgenic mice compared with non-transgenic siblings. Similarly...
