Physical exercise would mostly increase the activity of which glucose transporter?
GLUT-4
15 of 18
Exercise is seen as a direct medicine to type 2 diabetes because:
It translocates more GLUT-4 to the cell surface membranes of cells(muscle/adipose) which promotes more glucose transport into the cell
