Bilirubin Increases the Expression of Glucose Transporter-1 and the Rate of Glucose Uptake in Vascular Endothelial Cells

Guy Cohen,Dan M. Livovsky,Jaime Kapitulnik,Shlomo Sasson-2006-01-01-The Review of Diabetic Studies

TL;DRAbstract

The pro-oxidative properties of BR are responsible for its effects on the regulation of glucose transport in vascular endothelium. Pathological concentrations of BR in the vascular compartment (jaundice) may influence the cellular handling of glucose in diabetes.
