چکیده

Glucose transport is acutely stimulated by hypoxia through enhanced GLUT-1 and GLUT-4 glucose transporter function. GLUT-1 expression is also stimulated by hypoxia or azide. Moreover, hypoxia per se, acting through hypoxia-inducible factor 1, enhances GLUT-1 transcription. GLUT-1 is the first gene whose transcription is dually stimulated in response to hypoxia and inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation.

Role of the AMPKgamma3 isoform in hypoxia-stimulated glucose transport in glycolytic skeletal muscle.

Skeletal muscle glucose transport is regulated via the canonical insulin-signaling cascade as well as by energy-sensing signals. 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been implicated in the energy status regulation of glucose transport. We determined the role of the AMPKgamma3 isoform in hypoxia-mediated energy status signaling and glucose transport in fast-twitch glycolytic extensor digit...

AMP-activated protein kinase and the regulation of glucose transport.

The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy-sensing enzyme that is activated by acute increases in the cellular [AMP]/[ATP] ratio. In skeletal and/or cardiac muscle, AMPK activity is increased by stimuli such as exercise, hypoxia, ischemia, and osmotic stress. There are many lines of evidence that increasing AMPK activity in skeletal muscle results in increased rates of glucose transpo...

A possible role for AMP-activated protein kinase in exercise-induced glucose utilization: insights from humans and transgenic animals.

Exercise-induced glucose uptake in skeletal muscle is mediated by an insulin-independent mechanism, but the actual signals to glucose transport in response to muscle contraction have not been identified. The 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has emerged as a putative mediator of contraction-induced glucose transport, although no conclusive evidence has been provided so far. Recent experime...

Understanding the Mechanism Underlie the Antidiabetic Activity of Oleuropein Using Ex-Vivo Approach

Background: Oleuropein, the main constituent of olive fruit and leaves, has been reported to protect against insulin resistance and diabetes. While many experimental investigations have examined the mechanisms by which oleuropein improves insulin resistance and diabetes, much of these investigations have been carried out in either muscle cell lines or in vivo models two scenarios with many draw...

Hypoxia upregulates activity and expression of the glucose transporter GLUT1 in alveolar epithelial cells.

Alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) are directly exposed to high alveolar O(2) tension. Many pulmonary disorders are associated with a decrease in alveolar O(2) tension and AEC need to develop adaptative mechanisms to cope with O(2) deprivation. Under hypoxia, because of inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation, adenosine triphosphate supply is dependent on the ability of cells to increase anaerobic...
