Fig. 1. High beta-adrenergic activity enhances Slc2a4 gene expression. Slc2a4 mRNA expression in soleus (A) and extensor digitorum longus (B) muscles of Wistar (W) and spontaneously hypertensive (S) rats, and in 3T3-L1 adipocytes after 2-h treatment with 8-br-cAMP (C). Data are mean ± SEM of 8 to 9 animals in (A) and (B), and of 5 different samples in (C). **P<0.01 and *** P<0.001, unpaired two-tailed Student`s t-test.
