Adipocytes use which of following:

A
GLUT1
B
GLUT2
C
GLUT3
D
GLUT4
High-Yield Explanation
GLUT4 is expressed exclusively in adipocytes and skeletal and hea muscles, and translocation of GLUT4 from an intracellular pool to the plasma membrane is a major mechanism of the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in these tissues adipocytes, and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing Gq-coupled bradykinin B2 receptors (BK2Rs).The bradykinin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation may explain the exercise-induced glucose uptake in muscle cells.
