Aim: To assess the effects and mechanisms of the action of resistin on basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in rat skeletal muscle cells. Methods: Rat myo-blasts (L6) were cultured and differentiated into myotubes followed by stimulation with single commercial resistin (130 ng/mL, 0-24 h) or cultured supernatant from 293-T cells transfected with resistin-expressing vectors (130 ng/mL, 0-24 h). Liquid scintillation counting was used to quantitate [³H] 2-deoxyglucose uptake. The translocation of insulin-sensitive glucose transporters GLUT4 and GLUT1, synaptosomal-associated protein 23 (SNAP23) and GLUT protein content, as well as the tyrosine phosphorylation status and protein content of insulin receptor substrate (IRS) -1, were assessed by Western blotting. Results: Treatment of L6 myotubes with single resistin or cultured supernatant containing recombinant resistin reduced basal and insulin-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake and impaired insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translo
