cgmquantify: Python and R packages for comprehensive analysis of interstitial glucose and glycemic variability from continuous glucose monitor data [PDF]
, 2021 Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems provide real-time, dynamic glucose information by tracking interstitial glucose values throughout the day (typically values are recorded every 5 minutes). CGMs are commonly used in diabetes management by clinicians and patients and in research to understand how factors of longitudinal glucose and glucose ...

Posttranslational modifications of GLUT4 affect its subcellular localization and translocation [PDF]
, 2013 The facilitative glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4) is expressed in adipose and muscle and plays a vital role in whole body glucose homeostasis. In the absence of insulin, only ~1% of cellular GLUT4 is present at the plasma membrane, with the vast ...

Kinetoplastid glucose transporters [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1997 Protozoa of the order kinetoplastida have colonized many habitats, and several species are important parasites of humans. Adaptation to different environments requires an associated adaptation at a cell's interface with its environment, i.e. the plasma membrane.

Insights from the fungus Fusarium oxysporum point to high affinity glucose transporters as targets for enhancing ethanol production from lignocellulose. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ethanol is the most-widely used biofuel in the world today. Lignocellulosic plant biomass derived from agricultural residue can be converted to ethanol via microbial bioprocessing.

The low affinity glucose transporter HxtB is also involved in glucose signalling and metabolism in Aspergillus nidulans [PDF]
, 2017 One of the drawbacks during second-generation biofuel production from plant lignocellulosic biomass is the accumulation of glucose, the preferred carbon source of microorganisms, which causes the repression of hydrolytic enzyme secretion by industrially ...

Intestinal gluconeogenesis and glucose transport according to body fuel availability in rats [PDF]
J Physiol 566 (15/07/2005) 575-86, 2007 Intestinal hexose absorption and gluconeogenesis have been studied in relation to refeeding after two different fasting phases: a long period of protein sparing during which energy expenditure is derived from lipid oxidation (phase II), and a later phase characterized by a rise in plasma corticosterone triggering protein catabolism (phase III).

Glucose transporters in the blood-brain barrier [PDF]
, 2012 The central nervous system and peripheral nerves are guarded against free access from the outside by the blood-brain, blood-cerebrospinal fluid and blood-nerve barriers. The glucose transporter GLUT1 mediates the specific transfer of glucose across these
