Glucose is the most important energy substrate for mammalian blastocysts. Its uptake is mediated by glucose transporters (GLUT). In muscle and adipocyte cells insulin stimulates glucose uptake by activation of the insulin receptor (IR) pathway and translocation of GLUT4. GLUT4 is expressed in bovine preimplantation embryos. A new insulin-responsive isoform, GLUT8, was recently described in mous...
Insulin stimulates the translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 from intracellular locations to the plasma membrane in adipose and muscle cells. Prior studies have shown that Akt phosphorylation of the Rab GTPase-activating protein, AS160 (160-kDa Akt substrate; also known as TBC1D4), triggers GLUT4 translocation, most likely by suppressing its Rab GTPase-activating protein activity. Howe...
There is evidence suggesting that adaptive increases in GLUT4 and mitochondria in skeletal muscle occur in parallel. It has been reported that raising cytosolic Ca(2+) in myocytes induces increases in mitochondrial enzymes. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that an increase in cytosolic Ca(2+) induces an increase in GLUT4. We found that raising cytosolic Ca(2+) by exposing L6 myotubes to ...
Cell surface GLUT4 levels in skeletal muscle from nine type 2 diabetic subjects and nine healthy control subjects have been assessed by a new technique that involves the use of a biotinylated photo-affinity label. A profound impairment in GLUT4 translocation to the skeletal muscle cell surface in response to insulin was observed in type 2 diabetic patients. Levels of insulin-stimulated cell sur...
Mobilization of the GLUT4 glucose transporter from intracellular storage vesicles provides a mechanism for insulin-responsive glucose import into skeletal muscle. In humans, clathrin isoform CHC22 participates in formation of the GLUT4 storage compartment in skeletal muscle and fat. CHC22 function is limited to retrograde endosomal sorting and is restricted in its tissue expression and species ...
Insulin stimulates the rate of glucose transport into muscle and adipose cells by translocation of glucose transporter (GLUT4)-containing vesicles from an intracellular storage pool to the surface membrane. This event is mediated through the insulin receptor substrates (IRSs), which in turn activate phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase isoforms. It has been suggested that insulin causes attachmen...
GLUT4 protein expression in white adipose tissue (WAT) and skeletal muscle (SM) was investigated in 2-month-old, 12-month-old spontaneously obese or 12-month-old calorie-restricted lean Wistar rats, by considering different parameters of analysis, such as tissue and body weight, and total protein yield of the tissue. In WAT, an approximately 70% decrease was observed in plasma membrane and micr...
The glucose transporter GLUT4 plays a central role in maintaining body glucose homeostasis. On insulin stimulation, GLUT4-containing vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane, relocating GLUT4 from intracellular reservoirs to the cell surface to uptake excess blood glucose. The GLUT4 vesicle fusion reaction requires soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) as...
Genetically obese Zucker rats exhibit mild hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia suggesting the existence of peripheral insulin resistance. We have examined the effects of YM268, an analogue of thiazolidinedione, on the content and translocation of a glucose transporter (GLUT4) in epididymal adipose tissue in 11-week-old obese and lean Zucker rats. The administration of YM268 at a dose of 10 mg/...
Insulin-stimulated glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation promoting glucose uptake is vital to glucose homeostasis and is a defined target of antidiabetic drug research. Existing functional assays to detect the process of GLUT4 translocation are hampered due to assay variability and low sensitivity, thus slowing down the progress towards the development of preferred alternative to insulin....
