Deranged Bioenergetics and Defective Redox Capacity in T Lymphocytes and Neutrophils Are Related to Cellular Dysfunction and Increased Oxidative Stress in Patients with Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Figure 2
Comparison of glucose uptake and expression of glucose transporter type 3 (GLUT-3) and type 6 (GLUT-6) on T lymphocytes in normal and active SLE groups. (a) Glucose uptake by the cells detected by 3H-2-deoxy-D-glucose incorporation after 24-hour incubation. (b) Expression of GLUT-3 on normal and active SLE T lymphocytes. (c) Expression of GLUT-6 on normal and active SLE T lymphocytes.
