L Chang, SH Chiang, AR Saltiel - Molecular Medicine, 2004 - pubmedcentral.nih.gov Gaps remain in our understanding of the precise molecular mechanisms by which insulin regulates
glucose uptake in fat and muscle cells. Recent evidence suggests that insulin action involves
multiple pathways, each compartmentalized in discrete domains. Upon activation, the ... Cited by 85 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 7 versions

mainly in muscle and adipose tissue. GLUT4 is stored in a poorly characterized intracellular
vesicular compartment and translocates to the cell surface in response to insulin ... Cited by 29 - Related articles - All 5 versions

secretion, although its requirement in insulin granule exocytosis is unknown. To address
this, islets from Syntaxin 4 heterozygous (–/+) knockout mice were isolated and compared ... Cited by 22 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 4 versions

insulin receptor knockout mice (LIRKO) suggested that insulin's direct and indirect effects on
glucose utilization by the liver both require the presence of hepatic insulin receptors (IR). ... Cited by 8 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 4 versions
