Table 3.

Experimental glucose and glutamine consumption fluxes under euglycemia (6.4 mM) and hyperglycemic conditions (23.2 mM in medium).

Glutamine flux Glucose flux
Euglycemia (6.4 mM) 0.064 0.86
Hyperglycemia (23.2 mM) 0.035 0.79

Glutamine [Gln] = 3.0 mM at low glucose and 3.4 mM at high glucose. Fglc, glucose consumption flux (mmol/109cells/h) and Fgln, glutamine consumption (mmol/109cells/h). Flux ratios were Fglc/Fgln = 22.4 at high glucose and Fglc/Fgln = 13.5 at euglycemia.
