Journal ArticleDOI
Immuno-localization of the insulin regulatable glucose transporter in brown adipose tissue of the rat
TL;DR: The results suggest that in the presence of insulin GLUT 4 recycles from the cell surface, probably via the coated pit-endosome pathway that has been characterized for cell surface receptors, and also that insulin causes the redistribution ofGLUT 4 by stimulating exocytosis from GLUT 2-containing tubulo-vesicular structures, rather than by slowing endocytotic of GLUT 3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 in cardiac myocytes of the rat.
TL;DR: Increased glucose transport in muscle and fat is accounted for by translocation of GLUT4 from the intracellular tubulo-vesicular elements to the plasma membrane by stimulation of the exocytotic rate constant.
