FIG. 4.

Reduction of insulin-induced 2-deoxyglucose uptake by SB203580. Isolated EDL (A) and soleus (B) muscle strips were incubated with or without the indicated concentrations of SB203580 for 20 min. Muscles were then incubated for 30 min with or without insulin in the absence (□) or continued presence (▪) of SB203580. 2-Deoxyglucose uptake was then determined. Results represent the means ± SE of five different muscles in each group. *P < 0.01 compared with insulin treatment in the absence of inhibitor.

FIG. 6.

Contraction-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake is reduced by SB203580. Isolated EDL were incubated with or without the indicated concentrations of SB203580 for 20 min. Muscles were then electrically stimulated ([cjs2113]) or not(□) for 20 min in the absence or continued presence of SB203580. 2-Deoxyglucose uptake was then determined. Results represent the means± SE of at least three experiments. *P < 0.05 compared with contraction in the absence of inhibitor.
