Expression and Regulation of Facilitative Glucose Transporters in Equine Insulin-Sensitive Tissue: From Physiology to Pathology
Figure 1
Regulation of glucose transport in striated muscle. GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface is mediated by both insulin-dependent and -independent pathways. GLUT: glucose transporter; PI 3-kinase: phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase; IRS: insulin receptor substrate; Ca2+: calcium; SR: sarcoplasmic reticulum.
