  • Title: Cadmium stimulates glucose metabolism in rat adipocytes.
    Author: Yamamoto A, Wada O, Ono T, Ono H.
    Journal: J Inorg Biochem; 1986 Jul; 27(3):221-6. PubMed ID: 3531403.
    Abstract:
    Cd2+ caused an increase in CO2 formation from glucose in rat adipocytes. The apparent Km value for glucose was 2.02 mM for control condition, with Cd2+, and with insulin. Cd2+ stimulates glucose metabolism even though specific diffusion of glucose is blocked. A possible site effected by Cd2+ is discussed.
