MiPNet discussion forum: glucose oxidation in skeletal muscle (2013-10-29)
Dominik Pesta
Has anyone ever looked at glucose oxidation in intact skeletal muscle fibres (of mouse muscle)? I have tried with a Krebs Henseleit Buffer (no substrates) and Malate and/or Pyruvate followed by glucose (basal) and insulin titration (insulin stimulated) but do not get any stimulation of respiration. Although malate will not permeate the cell, I would at least expect some stimulation with glucose. Any thoughts on that?
