Rat GLUT4 (Glucose Transporter

Assays of Glucose Entry, Glucose Transporter Amount, and Translocation

and other hormones (1 ,2 ). Indeed, in those tissues, glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) is the chief isoform which is, in basal conditions, retained in a specific intracellular storage compartment (3 ). The GLUT4-containing vesicles are translocated to the plasma

Glucose and Lactate Monitoring Across the Rat SleepWake Cycle

Glucose biosensors were prepared by immobilizing glucose oxidase on carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs) either by cross-linking glutaraldehyde vapors or via enzyme entrapment in films of m -phenylenediamine or resorcinol. The enzymatic layer

. One notable exception is the glucose transporter isoform 4 (Glut4), which is specifically expressed in insulin sensitive tissues, i.e., skeletal muscle, heart muscle, and fat, and is responsible for the insulin effect on blood glucose clearance
