Opposite effects of acute hypoglycemia and acute hyperglycemia on glucose transport and glucose transporters in perfused rat skeletal muscle.

Abstract: This study was undertaken to characterize the effects of glycemia per se (glucose effectiveness) on muscle glucose transport. Isolated rat hindlimbs were perfused in situ for 2 h with perfusate containing either low (2 mmol/l, n = 7), normal (6.5 mmol/l, n = 6), or high (20 mmol/l, n = 6) concentrations of glucose, without insulin, to simulate hypo-, eu-, and hyperglycemic conditions. The effect of varying glucose concentrations on muscle glucose transport was assessed by an ensuing 30-min perfusion with 5.5 m… Show more

“…The increment in MCR observed with -blockade in this study, therefore, was likely due to enhanced whole-body insulin-mediated glucose uptake, presumably at muscle and adipose tissue, independent of a rise in insulin. Hyperglycemia also downregulates glucose transporters acutely and chronically in the presence or absence of residual insulin (36,37) and restoration of normoglycemia reverses that effect (37), but the present study indicates that restoration or the normal increase in MCR with stress was due predominantly to the effect of the -blockade per se rather than to normalization of hyperglycemia with basal insulin.…”

“…Increased glucose transporter numbers at the plasma membrane has been suggested as the mechanism for increased glucose uptake postexercise, and in rat skeletal muscle, a 1.8-fold increase in glucose transporters found at the plasma membrane was observed after exercise (32). The relationship between glycogen and membrane permeability to glucose is apparently reciprocal, with increasing glycogen content postexercise leading to a decrease in glucose uptake (33).…”

“…We have speculated that its suppression represents a protective mechanism against hyperglycemia, and that this is the reason that muscle may not have the diabetic complications seen in organs that do not have this mechanism. Most recently, we have shown in the perfused rat hindquarter that this mechanism applies to both hyper-and hypoglycemia, and that it is due to altered translocation and synthesis of glucose transporters (53). Thus, with hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic infusions, the number of glucose transporters in plasma membrane increases and decreases, respectively.…”
