| Research Abstract |
We determined the active microdomains for glucose-transport "Hot-spots" in adipocytes. These areas are well actin-reorganized membranes and activated by insulin. We found two independent proteins ; Rmel and GPI anchored protein p69, as regulators of glucose transport activity. Rmel inhibits GLUT4 entry into caveolin rafts; in contrast, p69 promotes it. These data suggests that membrane microdomains are important for glucose homeostasis.
Furthermore, we identified IRS1 foci just beneath the "hot-spots" area, where insulin signaling are inhibited by signal cross-talk with TNF alpha. This micro-structures are also functional for normal regulation for glucose metabolism.
These results suggest that membrane microdomains/ microstructures are functional organization for normal glucose metabolism.
