abstract：:Chronic exposure of L6 myocytes to insulin/IGF-1 or glucose deprivation results in an increase in the level of brain-type glucose transporter (GLUT1) mRNA. We have investigated the effects of insulin and glucose deprivation on GLUT1 mRNA stability. The half-life of GLUT1 mRNA in control cells was 2-2.5 h. Insulin incr...
