Sodium arsenite is one of a number of agents reported to induce a 30-34 kDa 'stress' protein in cells. Other agents which induce this stress protein, including diethyl maleate (DEM) and H2O2, have also been reported to be inducers of cystine transport in fibroblasts, macrophages, endothelial cells and other cell types. We have determined that micromolar levels of sodium arsenite increase cystine transport in bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (BPAEC), resulting in increases in intracellular glutathione (GSH). The increase in cystine transport appears to be due to stimulation of the synthesis of a protein analogous to the xc- transport system, a sodium-independent system specific for cystine and glutamate. We have determined that this stimulation is maximal between 8-16 h after addition of sodium arsenite and is inhibited by exogenous GSH. Others have reported that synthesis of the 30-34 kDa stress protein is maximal between 2-4 h and returns to baseline by 6-10 h. We conclude that cystine transport may be considered a 'secondary' stress response and is likely to be modulated by sulfhydryl-reactive agents. 相似文献

Amino acid transport in mouse peritoneal macrophages is mediated by several membrane carriers with different substrate specificity and sensitivity to environmental stimuli. We reported previously that transport activities of cystine and arginine in the macrophages were induced markedly by low concentrations of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). It is known that a variety of macrophage functions are affected by ambient oxygen tension. In this study, we have investigated the effects of oxygen on the induction of amino acid transport activity by LPS and found that the induction of cystine, but not arginine, transport activity was dependent on the ambient oxygen tension. When the macrophages were cultured with 2% O(2) in the presence of 1 ng/ml LPS, induction of cystine transport activity was reduced by approximately 70% compared with cells cultured under normoxic conditions. In macrophages, transport of cystine is mediated by a Na(+)-independent anionic amino acid transporter named system x(c)(-). System x(c)(-) is composed of two protein components, xCT and 4F2hc, and the expression of xCT was closely correlated with system x(c)(-) activity. A putative NF-kappaB binding site was found in the 5'-flanking region of the xCT gene, but the enhanced expression of xCT by LPS and oxygen was not mediated by NF-kappaB binding. An increase in intracellular GSH in macrophages paralleled induction of xCT, but not gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase. These results suggest the importance of system x(c)(-) in antioxidant defense in macrophages exposed to LPS and oxidative stress. 相似文献

Oxidative stress can impact the regulation of glucose transport activity in a variety of cell lines. In the present study, we assessed the direct effects of an oxidant stress on the glucose transport system in intact mammalian skeletal muscle preparations. Type IIb (epitrochlearis) and type I (soleus) muscles from insulin-sensitive lean Zucker rats were incubated in 8 mM glucose for 2 h in the absence or presence of 100 mU/ml glucose oxidase to produce the oxidant hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) (60-90 microM). Glucose transport, glycogen synthase activity, and metabolic signaling factors were then assessed. H(2)O(2) significantly (p < 0.05) activated basal glucose transport and glycogen synthase activities and increased insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, insulin receptor substrate-1 associated with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol-3' kinase (PI3-kinase), and Ser(473) phosphorylation of Akt in both muscle types. This induction of glucose transport by the oxidant stress was prevented by the PI3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin. The oxidant stress also significantly increased phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and 5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase. Interestingly, selective inhibition of p38 MAPK using A304000 substantially reduced the activation of glucose transport induced by the oxidant stress. These results support a direct role for oxidative stress in the activation of the glucose transport system in mammalian skeletal muscle and indicate that this process involves engagement of and possible interactions between the PI3-kinase-dependent signaling pathway and activation of p38 MAPK. 相似文献

Insulin-stimulated glucose transport in rat adipose cells. Modulation of transporter intrinsic activity by isoproterenol and adenosine 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The mechanism of modulation of insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in isolated rat adipose cells by lipolytic and antilipolytic agents has been examined. We have measured glucose transport activity in intact cells with 3-O-methylglucose and in plasma membranes with D-glucose, and the concentration of glucose transporters in plasma membranes using a cytochalasin B binding assay. In intact cells, isoproterenol reduced insulin-stimulated transport activity by 60%. This effect was lost after cooling and washing the cells with homogenization buffer, and neither the concentration of glucose transporters nor transport activity in the plasma membranes differed from control. However, treatment of cells with KCN prior to homogenization preserved the isoproterenol effect through the fractionation procedure. Plasma membranes from these cells contained an unchanged number of transporters (31 +/- 7, mean +/- S.E., versus 31 +/- 4 pmol/mg of protein in controls) but transported glucose at a reduced rate (19 +/- 6 versus 48 +/- 9 pmol/mg of protein/s). Conversely, incubation of intact cells in the presence of adenosine stimulated plasma membrane glucose transport activity compared to that in the absence of adenosine (44 +/- 6 versus 36 +/- 6 pmol/mg of protein/s). Kinetic studies of isoproterenol-inhibited glucose transport in plasma membranes revealed a 60% decrease in Vmax (2900 +/- 350 versus 7200 +/- 1000 pmol/mg of protein/s) and a small increase in Km (15.1 +/- 1 versus 13.0 +/- 0.6 mM). These data indicate that modifications of glucose transport activity produced by lipolytic and antilipolytic agents in intact adipose cells can be fully retained in plasma membranes isolated under appropriate conditions. Furthermore, the effects of these agents occur through a modification of the glucose transporter intrinsic activity. 相似文献

It has been shown previously that the rate of glucose transport in fibroblasts is accelerated by oncoproteins such as v-src, ras, and the transforming protein of feline sarcoma virus. This induction of glucose transport is associated with, and presumably caused by, induction of Hep-G2/rat brain glucose transporter gene expression. To determine the mechanism underlying the induction of glucose transporter gene expression by the v-src oncogene we studied cell lines that overexpress the normal counterpart of the v-src protein (c-src), or various mutants of the c-src protein. In these mutants, the tyrosines at positions 416, 527, or 519, or various combinations of these, have been replaced by phenylalanine by site directed mutagenesis, resulting in mutated c-src proteins that possess varying tyrosine kinase activity and transforming potential. Cells that overexpress the c-src protein show no changes in glucose transporter gene expression. However, when Tyr 527 in the COOH terminus of the c-src protein is replaced with Phe, the tyrosine kinase activity and transforming potential of the protein are increased and the protein acquires a potent ability to increase levels of glucose transporter mRNA and protein, as well as the rate of 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake. This ability is abolished by the double mutation of Tyr to Phe in positions 416 and 527, which reduces the tyrosine kinase activity of the 527 single mutant. Thus, the ability of src proteins to induce expression of the glucose transport system is linked to the tyrosine kinase activity of the protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The transport activity for cystine in cultured human fibroblasts decreased after incubation of the cells under a low oxygen concentration. After the incubation for 48 h under 3% oxygen, the Vmax of the transport was decreased to less than one-third of that of the control cells, with little change in Km. The similar transport activity was observed in the cells cultured under 3% oxygen for 10-40 days with several times of passages. When these low oxygen-cultured cells were incubated under room air, the activity was enhanced with a lag of about 4 h and was almost completely restored within 24 h. This restoration required protein synthesis. The cystine transport activity increased by 50% after exposure of the cells to hyperoxia (40% oxygen). From these results it is concluded that the transport activity for cystine is induced by oxygen. In contrast, little change in the transport activities for alanine and leucine occurred in the cells exposed to the corresponding hypoxia or hyperoxia. Since the cystine transported into the cells is reduced to cysteine and the cysteine readily exits to the culture medium where it autoxidizes to cystine, a cystine-cysteine cycle across the plasma membrane has been postulated. Since the autoxidation of cysteine in the culture medium was markedly slowed down under the low oxygen concentration, the change in the cystine transport activity in response to the oxygen concentration was regarded as pertinent. Induction of the cystine transport activity may constitute a protective mechanism against the oxidative stress, to which the culture cells are exposed, by providing the cells with cysteine which is mainly incorporated into glutathione. 相似文献

Glutathione Efflux from Cultured Astrocytes 总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2
Abstract: The characteristics and kinetics of GSH efflux from the monolayer culture of rat astrocytes were investigated. GSH efflux was dependent on temperature, with a Q 10 value of 2.0 between 37 and 25°C. The GSH efflux rate showed a hyperbolic dependency on the intracellular GSH concentration. The data were fitted well to the Michaelis-Menten model, giving the following kinetic parameter values: K m = 127 nmol/mg of protein; V max = 0.39 nmol/min/mg of protein. p -Chloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid, a thiol-reactive agent impermeable to the cell membrane, lowered the GSH efflux rate by 25% without affecting the intracellular GSH content. These results suggest that a carrier is involved in the efflux of GSH. The GSH content of cultured astrocytes showed a marked increase when the cells were exposed to insults, such as sodium arsenite, cadmium chloride, and glucose/glucose oxidase that lead to the generation of hydrogen peroxide. The increase in GSH content was attributed to the induction of the cystine transport activity by the agents. Although the intracellular GSH concentration and GSH efflux were increased, the kinetics of GSH efflux were not affected by those agents that imposed the oxidative stress. Because the K m value is very large, it is suggested that astrocytes release GSH depending on their GSH concentration in a wide range. 相似文献

Glucose is a very important energy source for a wide variety of cells, and the ability of cells to respond to changes in glucose availability or other cell stresses is of critical importance. Many mammalian cells respond to acute stress by increasing the V(max) of transport through GLUT1; the most ubiquitously expressed glucose transporter isoform. This study investigated the acute response of glucose uptake to glucose deprivation in L929 fibroblast cells--a cell line that expresses only the GLUT1 transporter. Results indicated that glucose deprivation of only a minute activated glucose uptake 10-fold and reached a maximum of 20-fold within 10 min. The activation was dose dependent and only partially muted by addition of up to 20mM pyruvate as an alternate energy source. In contrast to the kinetics of acute metabolic stress, glucose deprivation decreased the K(m) of transport, but did not alter the V(max). Maximal activation of glucose transport by glucose deprivation was completely additive to activation of transport by methylene blue--a stimulant that increased the V(max) of transport without a change in the K(m). Glucose-deprived activation of glucose transport was not inhibited by wortmannin or herbimycin A, but was completely inhibited by phenylarsine oxide. Altogether, the data indicate that L929 fibroblast cells respond quickly and robustly to the cell stress of glucose deprivation and methylene blue treatment by two distinct activation pathways. 相似文献

Decrease in glucose transport activity of Friend erythroleukemia cell caused by dimethylsulfoxide, a differentiation-inducing reagent 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A transport system for D-glucose was found in a Friend erythroleukemia cell line, T-3-C1-2-O and was characterized as a facilitated diffusion system. D-Glucose transport activity showed a half-saturation concentration of 2.2 mM and was inhibited by mercuric ions, cytochalasin B, phloretin, and stilbestrol, but was not strongly inhibited by phloridzin. Transport of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose was faster than D-glucose and the intracellular concentration of the sugar was found to reach the concentration in the assay medium. The treatment of cells with a differentiation-inducing reagent, dimethylsulfoxide(Me2SO), for 24 h caused a marked decrease in glucose transport activity due to a decrease in Vmax. In an induction-insensitive Friend cell line, T-3-K-1, D-glucose transport activity was low in untreated cells and Me2SO treatment did not cause a significant decrease in transport activity. The results obtained in this study indicate that the decrease in glucose transport activity is not due to the direct effect of Me2SO on transport activity, but is associated with the induction of differentiation. By immunoblotting cell lysates of T-3-C1-2-O cells using antibody to human erythrocyte glucose transporter, a single major band having a molecular weight of 52,000 was detected, which may be a glucose transporter in Friend cells. 相似文献

To determine whether oxytetracycline hydrochloride and the sodium salt of ampicillin have any adverse effects on the rat intestine, enteric enzyme levels and glucose transport rates were measured in vitro in rats. The intestinal transport of glucose did not differ significantly between control animals and those pretreated with ampicillin. For animals pretreated with oxytetracycline, the transport rates were significantly lower than those for the control group. The difference between the ampicillin and oxytetracycline groups, however, was not statistically significant. No significant differences in enteric levels of sucrase and maltase activity were found between any of the groups. The possibility that some antimicrobial agents may interfere with the absorption of nutrients suggested the need for caution in using these drugs in experimental animals. 相似文献

An interspecies approach to the investigation of the red cell membrane glucose transporter 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Glucose transport differs in red cells of various species. The following sequence of transport velocities was found: man greater than newborn pig greater than rat, dog greater than cattle greater than pig. No correlation was found between the amount of protein in band 3 and glucose transport activity. By contrast, a very clear peak in the band 4.5 region was found for newborn pigs, whereas adult pigs did not exhibit a corresponding peak in the electrophoresis. Thus further evidence is provided by our investigations in favour of band 4.5 region for glucose transport activity in red cells. 相似文献

With the aim of analysing the relative importance of sugar supply and nitrogen nutrition for the regulation of sulphate assimilation, the regulation of adenosine 5'-phosphosulphate reductase (APR), a key enzyme of sulphate reduction in plants, was studied. Glucose feeding experiments with Arabidopsis thaliana cultivated with and without a nitrogen source were performed. After a 38 h dark period, APR mRNA, protein, and enzymatic activity levels decreased dramatically in roots. The addition of 0.5% (w/v) glucose to the culture medium resulted in an increase of APR levels in roots (mRNA, protein and activity), comparable to those of plants kept under normal light conditions. Treatment of roots with d-sorbitol or d-mannitol did not increase APR activity, indicating that osmotic stress was not involved in APR regulation. The addition of O-acetyl-l-serine (OAS) also quickly and transiently increased APR levels (mRNA, protein, and activity). Feeding plants with a combination of glucose and OAS resulted in a more than additive induction of APR activity. Contrary to nitrate reductase, APR was also increased by glucose in N-deficient plants, indicating that this effect was independent of nitrate assimilation. [35S]-sulphate feeding experiments showed that the addition of glucose to dark-treated roots resulted in an increased incorporation of [35S] into thiols and proteins, which corresponded to the increased levels of APR activity. Under N-deficient conditions, glucose also increased thiol labelling, but did not increase the incorporation of label into proteins. These results demonstrate that (i) exogenously supplied glucose can replace the function of photoassimilates in roots; (ii) APR is subject to co-ordinated metabolic control by carbon metabolism; (iii) positive sugar signalling overrides negative signalling from nitrate assimilation in APR regulation. Furthermore, signals originating from nitrogen and carbon metabolism regulate APR synergistically. 相似文献

Bacillus licheniformis NCIB 6346 showed active accumulation of glucose which was inhibited by agents which affect the transmembrane proton gradient. Phosphotransferase (PTS) activity, identified as phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of glucose, was found in cell extracts but could not be demonstrated in cells permeabilized with toluene when assays were conducted at pH 6.6. The same was true for mannitol and fructose phosphotransferase activities. Cells grown on fructose accumulated glucose at a slower rate than glucose-grown cells, and extracts prepared from them did not contain glucose PTS activity. Examination of the effects of analogs on glucose uptake and phosphorylation showed that 2-deoxyglucose was not a PTS substrate, but did markedly inhibit glucose uptake, with stronger inhibition in cells grown on fructose. Glucose accumulation by whole cells grown on glucose became less sensitive to the uncoupler tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCS) as the pH was raised from 6.6 to 8.0, while in fructose-grown cells TCS was equally effective across this pH range. PTS activity was exhibited by toluene-treated cells at pH 7.5 and above, although the system itself in extracts was not affected by pH in the range of 5.0 to 8.0. The results are consistent with the presence of two glucose transport systems, one a PTS and the other operating by an alternative mechanisms, and suggest that the PTS in B. licheniformis may be regulated in a pH-dependent manner. 相似文献

The combined effect of arachidonic acid and cAMP on glucose transport was examined in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In cells pre-treated with arachidonic acid and increasing concentrations of 8-bromo cAMP for 8 h, although either agent alone enhanced glucose uptake, the simultaneous presence of both agents dramatically increased 2-deoxyglucose uptake in a synergistic fashion. Insulin-stimulated glucose transport, on the other hand, was only slightly affected. The synergistic effect of these two agents was abolished in the presence of cycloheximide. Immunoblot analysis revealed that the contents of ubiquitous glucose transporter (GLUT1) in total cellular and plasma membranes were similarly augmented in cells pre-treated with both arachidonic acid and 8-bromo cAMP, to a greater extent than the additive effect of each agent alone. The content of GLUT4, on the other hand, was not altered under the same experimental conditions. In cells pre-treated with 4beta-phorbol 12beta-myristate 13alpha-acetate (PMA) for 24 h to down-regulate protein kinase C (PKC), the subsequent synergistic effect of arachidonic acid and 8-bromo cAMP was greatly inhibited. In addition, pre-treatment with both PMA and 8-bromo cAMP enhanced glucose transport in a similarly synergistic fashion. Thus the present study seems to indicate that arachidonic acid may act with cAMP in a synergistic way to increase glucose transport by a PKC-dependent mechanism. The increased activity may be accounted for by increased GLUT1 synthesis. 相似文献

Retinal endothelial cells are believed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. In previous studies, we and others demonstrated that glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) is downregulated in response to hyperglycemia. Increased oxidative stress is likely to be the event whereby hyperglycemia is transduced into endothelial cell damage. However, the effects of sustained oxidative stress on GLUT1 regulation are not clearly established. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of increased oxidative stress on glucose transport and on GLUT1 subcellular distribution in a retinal endothelial cell line and to elucidate the signaling pathways associated with such regulation. Conditionally immortalized rat retinal endothelial cells (TR-iBRB) were incubated with glucose oxidase, which increases the intracellular hydrogen peroxide levels, and GLUT1 regulation was investigated. The data showed that oxidative stress did not alter the total levels of GLUT1 protein, although the levels of mRNA were decreased, and there was a subcellular redistribution of GLUT1, decreasing its content at the plasma membrane. Consistently, the half-life of the protein at the plasma membrane markedly decreased under oxidative stress. The proteasome appears to be involved in GLUT1 regulation in response to oxidative stress, as revealed by an increase in stabilization of the protein present at the plasma membrane and normalization of glucose transport following proteasome inhibition. Indeed, levels of ubiquitinated GLUT1 increase as revealed by immunoprecipitation assays. Furthermore, data indicate that protein kinase B activation is involved in the stabilization of GLUT1 at the plasma membrane. Thus subcellular redistribution of GLUT1 under conditions of oxidative stress is likely to contribute to the disruption of glucose homeostasis in diabetes. 相似文献

Recycling of the glucose transporter, the insulin receptor, and insulin in rat adipocytes. Effect of acidtropic agents 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The notion of an insulin-dependent translocation of the glucose transporter in rat adipocytes was confirmed by immunoblotting and reconstitution of glucose transport activity of subcellular fractions. Quantitatively, however, significantly different results were obtained with these two techniques; when compared with reconstitution, immunoblotting detected translocation of a larger amount of the transporter from a low density microsome fraction to a plasma membrane fraction. The acidtropic agents chloroquine and dibucaine, which have been reported to inhibit the recycling of various receptors, were utilized to study the detailed translocation mechanism of the glucose transporter and the insulin receptor. These acidtropic agents caused accumulation of 125I-insulin in a subcellular fraction probably corresponding to lysosomes. They did not, however, significantly affect either the insulin-induced activation of glucose transport or the recycling of the transporter and the insulin receptor as detected by immunoblotting. About 50% of radioactivity released from adipocytes which were allowed to internalize insulin was due to intact insulin, and chloroquine did not change the release rate of intact insulin, raising the possibility of receptor-mediated exocytosis of insulin. The release of degraded insulin decreased with chloroquine treatment. The results are consistent with the idea that these acidtropic agents mainly act to inhibit degradation of insulin in lysosomes, and their effect on the recycling of the glucose transporter and the insulin receptor is minimal, indicating that the recycling of these membrane proteins proceeds irrespective of organelle acidification. Electron micrographs showed vesicles underneath the plasma membranes, with sizes similar to those of the low density microsome fraction where the internalized glucose transporter and the insulin receptor were located. 相似文献

Human erythrocyte membranes, at a protein concentration of 1–2 g/l, were solubilized with 0.12 M cholate in the presence of 0.06 M phospholipid (egg yolk phospholipids or phosphatidylcholine). More than 40% of the protein was solubilized. Cholate was removed by molecular sieve chromatography, whereby liposomes formed. These liposomes exchanged D-glucose faster than L-glucose. The recovery of glucose transport activity in the reconstituted system was estimated to be higher than 16%.The liposomes were heterogeneous in size, as shown by molecular sieve chromatography on Sepharose 4B, and small liposomes predominated. In liposomes formed with phosphatidylcholine, the distribution of glucose transport activity did not parallel the distribution of protein or phospholipid, and the activity was found mainly in the smallest liposomes. The proteins were incorporated mainly into the liposomes that eluted at the lowest ionic strength upon ion exchange chromatography.The glucose transport activity separated into three main peaks upon ion exchange chromatography of egg yolk phospholipid liposomes. The activity eluted at low ionic strength. The liposomes contained proteins mainly from the 3- and 4.5-regions (nomenclature according to Steck, T.L. (1974) J. Cell Biol. 62, 1–19). The activity peaks were highest in the first part of the chromatogram. The protein distribution did not coincide with the variation in activity over each peak. Therefore, it cannot be excluded that a minor component not seen in the electrophoretic analyses might be responsible for the glucose transport activity. 相似文献

Dissociation of insulin-stimulated glucose transport from the translocation of glucose carriers in rat adipose cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Cycloheximide, a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis, has been used to examine the relationship between recruitment of hexose carriers and the activation of glucose transport by insulin in rat adipocytes. Adipocytes were preincubated +/- cycloheximide for 90 min then +/- insulin for a further 30 min. We measured 3-O-methylglucose uptake in intact cells and in isolated plasma membrane vesicles. The concentration of glucose transporters in plasma membranes and low density microsomes was measured using a cytochalasin B binding assay. Cycloheximide had no affect on basal or insulin-stimulated 3-O-methylglucose uptake in intact cells or in plasma membrane vesicles. However, the number of glucose carriers in plasma membranes prepared from cells incubated with cycloheximide and insulin was markedly reduced compared to that from cells incubated with insulin alone (14 and 34 pmol/mg protein, respectively). Incubation of cells with cycloheximide alone did not change the concentration of glucose carriers in either plasma membranes or in low density microsomes compared to control cells. When isolated membranes were analyzed with an antiserum prepared against human erythrocyte glucose transporter, decreased cross-reactivity was observed in plasma membranes prepared from cycloheximide/insulin-treated cells compared to those from insulin cells. The present findings indicate that incubation of adipocytes with cycloheximide greatly reduces the number of hexose carriers in the plasma membrane of insulin-stimulated cells. Despite this reduction, insulin is still able to maximally stimulate glucose uptake. Thus, these data suggest an apparent dissociation between insulin stimulation of glucose transport activity and the recruitment of glucose carriers by the hormone. 相似文献

Muscle contractile activity is followed by an increase in the sensitivity of glucose transport to insulin. There is evidence suggesting that activation of p38 MAP kinase (p38) is involved in the stimulation of glucose transport by insulin and contractions. Exercise results in an increase in p38 phosphorylation that lasts for hours. In this context, we tested the hypothesis that activation of p38 results in an increase in insulin sensitivity. Muscles were exposed to anisomycin for 30 min to activate p38. Anisomycin increased p38 phosphorylation approximately 2.5-fold and glucose transport activity 2- to 3-fold. Three hours after anisomycin treatment, by which time the acute effect on glucose transport had partially worn off, sensitivity of muscle glucose transport to 60 microU/ml insulin was markedly increased. Both the activation of p38 and the increase in insulin sensitivity induced by anisomycin were completely prevented by pretreatment of muscles with the p38 inhibitor SB-202190. However, in contrast to the finding with anisomycin, inhibition of p38 activation did not prevent the contraction-induced increase in insulin sensitivity. Thus our results show that activation of p38 is followed by an increase in insulin sensitivity of muscle glucose transport. However, activation of p38 is not necessary for induction of an increase in muscle insulin sensitivity by contractions. This finding provides evidence that contractions have an additional effect that makes p38 activation unnecessary for enhancement of insulin sensitivity by contractile activity. 相似文献
