Microtubules serve as tracks for long-range intracellular trafficking of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), but the role of this process in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance is unclear. Here, we used ...

In order to elucidate the spatial and temporal distribution of GLUT4 in the mouse endometrium, the expression of GLUT4 in the mouse endometrium was first examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) ...

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is a treatment modality useful for diseases. Hypoxia could stimulate the induction of insulin resistance. Therefore, we sought to determine whether hyperbaric oxygen ...
