Diet-induced insulin resistance altered cardiac GLUT4 and FATP/CD36 expression in rats

Background Altered substrate transport protein expression is central to the effect of insulin resistance on cardiac metabolism. The present study was thus designed to investigate the comparative effects of high fat, high sucrose and salt-induced IR on cardiac expression of fatty acid transporter (FA...

Description
Summary:Background Altered substrate transport protein expression is central to the effect of insulin resistance on cardiac metabolism. The present study was thus designed to investigate the comparative effects of high fat, high sucrose and salt-induced IR on cardiac expression of fatty acid transporter (FATP) and glucose transporter (GLUT4) in rats. Results Rats fed with high fat, high sucrose and salt diets developed impaired glucose tolerance ( p  > 0.05) and hyperinsulinemia ( p
