To study the interactions between insulin and contraction on the skeletal muscle glucose transport system, the hindquarters of male rats were perfused in the absence of insulin, in the presence of insulin (30 mU/ml), during contractions induced by sciatic nerve stimulation, or during contractions plus insulin. Compared with control preparations, rates of glucose uptake in the perfused hindquarter were increased by 2.5- and 2.6-fold in the insulin and insulin plus contraction groups, respectively, but not significantly increased in the contraction only preparations. After perfusion, soleus and red and white gastrocnemius muscles from the hindquarter were pooled and used for the preparation of plasma membranes. Skeletal muscle plasma membrane vesicle glucose transport rates were 2.2 +/- 0.5, 7.9 +/- 1.7, 9.0 +/- 2.2, and 10.8 +/- 2.0 nmol.mg protein-1.s-1 (40 mM glucose), and plasma membrane glucose transporter numbers were 4.7 +/- 0.5, 8.1 +/- 0.9, 9.1 +/- 1.0, and 8.6 +/- 0.6 pmol/mg protein in the control, contraction, insulin, and insulin plus contraction groups, respectively. The transport-transporter ratio, an indication of plasma membrane glucose transporter intrinsic activity, was increased by contraction, insulin, and insulin plus contraction. These results demonstrate that contractile activity in the absence of insulin increases muscle plasma membrane glucose transport by increasing transporter number and intrinsic activity. In addition, under these experimental conditions, the effects of insulin and contraction to increase muscle glucose transport are not additive.
