Abstract excerpt
Glucose transport activity and subcellular distribution of glucose transporters, GLUT1 and GLUT4 were studied in non-confluent (NCF), confluent (CF), and differentiated 3T3-L1 cells (A). During growth of the fibroblasts to confluence, basal transport activity decreased to 20% of that in non-confluent cells. Corresponding with the reduction in transport activity, the abundance of GLUT1 in plasma membranes as...
