pubmed:abstractText |
Although endothelial cells express insulin receptors, it is controversially discussed whether the endothelium represents an insulin-responsive tissue. Since available data are primarily restricted to animal endothelial cells, this study tested (i) whether insulin affects glucose metabolism in human endothelium; (ii) whether insulin sensitivity is different in micro- versus macrovascular endothelial cells; and (iii) whether glucose concentration in the incubation medium affects the cells' response to insulin.
