Exercise-stimulated glucose uptake—regulation and implications for glycaemic control

L Sylow, M Kleinert, EA Richter… - Nature Reviews …, 2017 - nature.com
Skeletal muscle extracts glucose from the blood to maintain demand for carbohydrates as
an energy source during exercise. Such uptake involves complex molecular signalling …

Exercise increases human skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity via coordinated increases in microvascular perfusion and molecular signaling

KA Sjøberg, C Frøsig, R Kjøbsted, L Sylow… - Diabetes, 2017 - Am Diabetes Assoc
Insulin resistance is a major health risk, and although exercise clearly improves skeletal
muscle insulin sensitivity, the mechanisms are unclear. Here we show that initiation of a …

[PDF][PDF] The many actions of insulin in skeletal muscle, the paramount tissue determining glycemia

L Sylow, VL Tokarz, EA Richter, A Klip - Cell metabolism, 2021 - cell.com
As the principal tissue for insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, skeletal muscle is a primary
driver of whole-body glycemic control. Skeletal muscle also uniquely responds to muscle …

Rac1 signaling is required for insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and is dysregulated in insulin-resistant murine and human skeletal muscle

L Sylow, TE Jensen, M Kleinert, K Højlund, B Kiens… - Diabetes, 2013 - Am Diabetes Assoc
The actin cytoskeleton–regulating GTPase Rac1 is required for insulin-stimulated GLUT4
translocation in cultured muscle cells. However, involvement of Rac1 and its downstream …

Rac1 signalling towards GLUT4/glucose uptake in skeletal muscle

TT Chiu, TE Jensen, L Sylow, EA Richter, A Klip - Cellular signalling, 2011 - Elsevier
Small Rho family GTPases are important regulators of cellular traffic. Emerging evidence now
implicates Rac1 and Rac-dependent actin reorganisation in insulin-induced recruitment of …

[HTML][HTML] Cytosolic ROS production by NADPH oxidase 2 regulates muscle glucose uptake during exercise

…, SH Raun, Z Li, E Dalbram, JT Treebak, L Sylow… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as intracellular compartmentalized second messengers,
mediating metabolic stress-adaptation. In skeletal muscle fibers, ROS have been suggested …

Deletion of skeletal muscle SOCS3 prevents insulin resistance in obesity

SB Jorgensen, HM O'Neill, L Sylow, J Honeyman… - Diabetes, 2013 - Am Diabetes Assoc
Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation that contributes to defects in
energy metabolism and insulin resistance. Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-3 …

Akt and Rac1 signaling are jointly required for insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and downregulated in insulin resistance

L Sylow, M Kleinert, C Pehmøller, C Prats, TT Chiu… - Cellular signalling, 2014 - Elsevier
Skeletal muscle plays a major role in regulating whole body glucose metabolism. Akt and
Rac1 are important regulators of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. …

Rac1 is a novel regulator of contraction-stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle

L Sylow, TE Jensen, M Kleinert, JR Mouatt… - Diabetes, 2013 - Am Diabetes Assoc
In skeletal muscle, the actin cytoskeleton-regulating GTPase, Rac1, is necessary for insulin-dependent
GLUT4 translocation. Muscle contraction increases glucose transport and …

[HTML][HTML] Disruption of mitochondrial dynamics triggers muscle inflammation through interorganellar contacts and mitochondrial DNA mislocation

…, J Seco, M Palacín, A Gumà, L Sylow… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Some forms of mitochondrial dysfunction induce sterile inflammation through mitochondrial
DNA recognition by intracellular DNA sensors. However, the involvement of mitochondrial …
