Abstract: | This investigation examined the effectsof short-term exercise training on insulin-stimulated GLUT-4 glucosetransporter translocation and glucose transport activity in rat adiposecells. Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to a sedentary (Sed) orswim training group (Sw, 4 days; final 3 days: 2 × 3 h/day). Adipose cell size decreased significantly but minimally(~20%), whereas total GLUT-4 increased by 30% in Sw vs. Sed rats.Basal3-O-methyl-D-[14C]glucosetransport was reduced by 62%, whereas maximally insulin-stimulated (MIS) glucose transport was increased by 36% in Sw vs. Sed rats. MIScell surface GLUT-4 photolabeling was 44% higher in the Sw vs. Sedanimals, similar to the increases observed in MIS glucose transportactivity and total GLUT-4. These results suggest that increases intotal GLUT-4 and GLUT-4 translocation to the cell surface contribute tothe increase in MIS glucose transport with short-term exercisetraining. In addition, the results suggest that the exercisetraining-induced adaptations in glucose transport occur more rapidlythan previously thought and with minimal changes in adipose cell size. |
