Rac GTPase Regulation of GLUT4 Traffic in Muscle Cells: Mechanisms and Implications
One of the hallmarks of postprandial glucose homeostasis is the ability of insulin to promote glucose uptake into skeletal muscles. Insulin achieves this feat by enhancing the recruitment of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane of muscles in order to...
