Dose- and time-dependent stimulation of glucose transport in L6 myotubes by CGA.

<p>A: L6 myotubes were incubated with incremental concentrations of CGA for 24 hours. B: L6 myotubes were incubated with 2 mmol/l CGA at different incubation periods up to 24 hours. 2-deoxyglucose uptake was measure over a 30-minute period, using liquid scintillation counter. Readings are expressed as percentage increase over basal uptake of cells incubated with vehicle. <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0032718#s3" target="_blank">Results</a> are the mean ± SE of three independent experiments. *<i>P</i><0.05, **<i>P</i><0.01 compared with vehicle-treated control.
