Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Glucose transport in lymphocytes is regulated by many agents. It is interesting if only changing glucose concentrations in environment involves the impact on glucose uptake. The aims of this study were to investigate the impact of changing glucose concentrations in medium on deoxy-d-glucose uptake and what these conditions impact on the percent of cells with expression of chosen glucose transporters in human lymphocytes B and T. Isolated lymphocytes B and T obtained from healthy subject were cultivated in different concentrations of glucose. The experiments were carried out using tritium labeled deoxy-d-glucose and flow cytometry. In comparison to normoglycemia, hyperglycemia impairs the uptake of deoxy-d-glucose more than hypoglycemia. Lymphocytes B manifest significantly lower uptake of deoxy-d-glucose than lymphocytes T. Lymphocytes incubated in hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic medium show lower percent cells with expression of GLUT 1 and GLUT 3, and higher percent cells with expression of GLUT 4. The incubation of lymphocytes in hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic medium does not stimulate translocation of glucose transporters 3 and 4 to plasma membrane. Study shows that a change in concentration of glucose in incubation environment influence intracellular expression of glucose transporters in a significant part of lymphocytes B and T.
