NIH Researchers Discover How Insulin Allows Entry of Glucose Into Cells

... the study, the researchers discovered how glucose transporter 4 (GLUT 4) carried insulin into fat cells. Previously, scientists had learned that, within the cell, GLUT 4 is contained in the membrane of tiny sacs known as vesicles. Another author of the current study, Samuel Cushman, Ph.D., of NIDDK’s Diabetes ...
