Glucose Transport and Glucose Transporters in Muscle and Their Metabolic Regulation

Abstract: Skeletal muscle is the primary tissue responsible for insulin-dependent glucose uptake in vivo; therefore, glucose uptake by this tissue plays an important role in determining glycemia. Glucose uptake in muscle occurs by a system of facilitated diffusion involving at least two distinct glucose transporters, GLUT-1 and GLUT-4. Both bind the fungal metabolite and inhibitor of glucose transport cytochalasin B. In human skeletal muscle, both types of transporters are detected immunologically, and corresponding mRN… Show more

“…In mammals, GLUT1 is the other major GLUT isoform expressed in skeletal muscle, together with GLUT4 (25). The levels of GLUT1 mRNA increased modestly during the in vitro differentiation of trout muscle cells, in contrast to what is known in mammals (2,18,41,48).…”

“…However, another possibility is that ap3bl INM is mediated by the actin-myosin system. The previously reported inhibition of INM by cytochalasin B (2, 14) does not constitute conclusive evidence for a role of actin microfilaments in INM because cytochalasin B not only interferes with actin microfilament function but also directly inhibits glucose uptake into cells (15).…”

“…action effect which is independent of insulin [2]. Insulin stimulates glucose disposal by increasing the translocation and intrinsic activity of the GLUT4 transporter [3,4], whereas hyperglycaemia promotes glucose uptake primarily via the GLUT1 transporter [5] although more recent findings suggest a stimulation/activation of GLUT4 as well [6].…”
