Rosmarinic Acid, a Rosemary Extract Polyphenol, Increases Skeletal Muscle Cell Glucose Uptake and Activates AMPK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Skeletal muscle is a major insulin-target tissue and plays an important role in glucose homeostasis. Impaired insulin action in muscles leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

AMP-activated protein kinase plays an important evolutionary conserved role in the regulation of glucose metabolism in fish skeletal muscle cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
AMPK, a master metabolic switch, mediates the observed increase of glucose uptake in locomotory muscle of mammals during exercise. AMPK is activated by changes in the intracellular AMP:ATP ratio when ATP consumption is stimulated by contractile activity ...

Glucose uptake in Prochlorococcus: diversity of kinetics and effects on the metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We have previously shown that Prochlorococcus sp. SS120 strain takes up glucose by using a multiphasic transporter encoded by the Pro1404 gene. Here, we studied the glucose uptake kinetics in multiple Prochlorococcus strains from different ecotypes ...

Enhancement of glucose uptake in mouse skeletal muscle cells and adipocytes by P2Y6 receptor agonists.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Glucose uptake by peripheral tissues such as skeletal muscles and adipocytes is important in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis. We previously demonstrated that P2Y6 receptor (P2Y6R) agonists protect pancreatic islet cells from apoptosis and ...

Spectral tracing of deuterium for imaging glucose metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cells and tissues often display pronounced spatial and dynamical metabolic heterogeneity. Common glucose-imaging techniques report glucose uptake or catabolism activity, yet do not trace the functional utilization of glucose-derived anabolic products ...

Aging in vitro and D-glucose uptake kinetics of diploid human fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
By use of a rapid technique, initial rates of D-glucose transport were obtained during the lifespan in vitro of a commercially available strain of human embryo lung fibroblasts (Flow 2000).

Fibroblast growth factor 21 promotes glucose uptake by a GLUT4-dependent and Akt-independent mechanism in isolated fibers of skeletal muscle

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Investigaciones Biomédicas, 2020
Introduction: Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a pleiotropic peptide hormone that induces glucose uptake in both primary myotubes and C2C12 myoblasts.

E4orf1: a novel ligand that improves glucose disposal in cell culture.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Reducing dietary fat intake and excess adiposity, the cornerstones of behavioral treatment of insulin resistance (IR), are marginally successful over the long term.

Metabolic and cardiac adaptation to chronic pharmacologic blockade of facilitative glucose transport in murine dilated cardiomyopathy and myocardial ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
GLUT transgenic and knockout mice have provided valuable insight into the role of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, but compensatory physiological changes can hinder interpretation of these models.
