lüll The molecular basis of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake: signalling, trafficking and potential drug targets Leney SE; Tavare JMJ Endocrinol 2009[Oct]; 203 (1): 1-18The search for the underlying mechanism through which insulin regulates glucose uptake into peripheral tissues has unveiled a highly intricate network of molecules that function in concert to elicit the redistribution or 'translocation' of the glucose transporter isoform GLUT4 from intracellular membranes to the cell surface. Following recent technological advances within this field, this review aims to bring together the key molecular players that are thought to be involved in GLUT4 translocation and will attempt to address the spatial relationship between the signalling and trafficking components of this event. We will also explore the degree to which components of the insulin signalling and GLUT4 trafficking machinery may serve as potential targets for the development of orally available insulin mimics for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.|Animals[MESH]|Cell Membrane/metabolism[MESH]|Diabetes Mellitus/drug therapy/metabolism[MESH]|Glucose Transporter Type 4/*metabolism[MESH]|Glucose/*metabolism[MESH]|Homeostasis[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Insulin/*metabolism[MESH]|Signal Transduction[MESH] |
