Different Forms of Vanadate on Sugar Transport in Insulin Target and Nontarget Cells

The effects of several vanadates (ie, orthovanadate, pervanadate, and two stable peroxovanadium compounds) on basal and insulin-stimulated 2-DG transport in insulin target and nontarget cell lines are reported, herein. In nontarget cells, exposure to vanadates (5×10−6 to 10−4 mol/L) resulted in 2-DG...
