Microtubule-mediated GLUT4 trafficking is disrupted in insulin resistant skeletal muscle
2022-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Microtubules serve as tracks for long-range intracellular trafficking of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), but the role of this process in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance is unclear. Here, we used fixed and live-cell imaging to study microtubule-based GLUT4 trafficking in human and mouse muscle fibers and L6 rat muscle cells. We found GLUT4 localized along and on the microtubules in mouse and human muscle fibe...
