Effects of glucose and insulin administration on glucose transporter expression in the North Pacific spiny dogfish ( Squalus suckleyi )

Highlights • Dogfish can restore plasma glucose following a glucose injection within 24 h. • Dogfish respond to an insulin injection with decreases in plasma glucose. • Both treatments are accompanied by changes in glucose transporter expression. • Elasmobranchs glucoregulate in a manner similar to...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Dogfish can restore plasma glucose following a glucose injection within 24 h. • Dogfish respond to an insulin injection with decreases in plasma glucose. • Both treatments are accompanied by changes in glucose transporter expression. • Elasmobranchs glucoregulate in a manner similar to other vertebrates.
