No evidence of direct association between GLUT4 and glycogen in human skeletal muscle

Introduction It is well recognized from studies in rodents and humans that exercise increases insulin‐stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle (Richter et al. 1982, 1989; Cartee and Holloszy 1990; Wojtaszewski et al. 2000). This is associated with muscle glycogen depletion during exercise (Bogardus et al. 1983; Ivy et al. 1985) and enhanced GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane with insulin stimulation in the post‐exercise period (Hansen et al. 1998).

Exercise and GLUT4 in human subcutaneous adipose tissue

| Color Research & Application Verified
Introduction The glucose transporter GLUT4 has a pivotal role in facilitating glucose uptake into skeletal and cardiac muscle in response to contractions and in adipose tissue and muscle in response to insulin stimulation. It has been previously demonstrated that both a single bout of exercise (Greiwe et al. 2000; Kraniou et al. 2000, 2006; McGee and Hargreaves 2004) and regular exercise training (Gulve and Spina 1995; Houmard et al. 1995; Phillips et al. 1996; Kraniou et al.
