FIG. 8.

Insulin stimulation of 2-deoxy[2-³H]glucose (2DG) uptake in hemidiaphragms from control and R_GL knockout mice. Hemidiaphragms were incubated at 37°C for 15 min with or without 250 mU of insulin per ml. The hemidiaphragms were then incubated with insulin (hatched bars) or without insulin (open bars) in medium containing 5 mM 2DG for 10 min. The results presented are the mean values ± SE of eight experiments. Statistical significance was assessed by Student's t test (∗, P < 0.02).
