The role of sortilin in the “Glut4 Pathway”.
Sorting receptor, sortilin, is highly expressed in metabolically active tissues, such as brain, liver, skeletal muscle, and fat. Specifically in adipocytes, sortilin plays an important role in the “Glut4 pathway” by sorting the insulin-responsive glucose transporter, Glut4, in early endosomes and tr...
