Glucose uptake in isolated human myotube cells. a Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake: Insulin stimulation (1 h) led to a ~ 35% increase (P = 0.018) in glucose uptake. Correlation between basal- and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and mRNA expression of (b) FBXW5 (rbasal = 0.79, P = 0.036 and rinsulin = 0.86, P = 0.014) (c) SIRT2 (rbasal = 0.79, P = 0.036 and rinsulin = 0.82, P = 0.023) and (d) CPT1B (rbasal = 0.49, P = 0.268 and rinsulin = 0.43, P = 0.333). n = 7 average values from 1 to 3 independent experiments per individual. For illustration, data were transformed using the natural logarithm (b-d)
