Figure 5

Muscle specific glucose uptake (R’g) for soleus, plantaris (plant.), gastrocnemius red (GR), gastrocnemius white (GW), extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and tibialis (Tib.) muscles during saline (open), insulin (grey), AICAR (hatched) and AICAR + insulin (black) treatments. Percent (%) fiber type is indicated by pie charts; Type I (slow twitch oxidative, (black); Type IIA (fast twitch oxidative, grey); Type IIB (fast twitch glycolytic, white). Data are mean ± SE, (Protocol A). *p < 0.05 insulin vs respective saline, #p < 0.05 insulin vs AICAR + insulin.
