Abstract
This study confirms that calpain-10 plays a role in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in human skeletal muscle cells. Suppression of calpain-10 expression did not affect insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis nor insulin-signalling via PKB, suggesting that calpain-10 may exert a direct regulatory effect upon the glucose uptake mechanism.
