show no structural alerts for PAINS and are colorless and non-
fluorescent.
Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. 3T3-L1 fibroblasts (from
the American Type Culture Collection), were cultured in
DMEM and differentiated to adipocytes by treatment with in-
sulin, dexamethasone and isobutylmethylxanthine, as described
previously.29 On the day of the experiment, 10-12 d post-differ-
entiation, the cells were incubated with serum-free DMEM for
2 h at 37C. Cells in the treatment group were treated with in-
creasing concentrations of 13 or 14 for 1 h. At the end of the
incubation period, the cells were washed thrice with Krebs-
Ringer-HEPES (KRH) buffer (140 mM NaCl, 4.7 mM KCl, 2.5
mM CaCl2, 1.25 mM MgSO4, 2.5 mM NaH2PO4, 10 mM
HEPES, (pH 7.4)) and incubated for 30 min with 13 or 14 and
in either the absence or presence of insulin (100 nM) at 37C.
After the 30 min incubation period, 2-deoxy-D-[2,6-3H]glucose
(final concentration 50 M, 0.1 Ci well-1) was added for 5 min
and the cells were washed four times with ice-cold KRH buffer.
Nonspecific uptake of 2-deoxy-D-glucose was measured in the
presence of 10 M cytochalasin B. The cells were lysed in aq.
NaOH (0.1 M) and radioactivity was counted in a TriCarb Pack-
ard scintillation counter (Perkin-Elmer). The concentrations of
proteins were measured using BCA protein assay kit (Thermo
Fisher Scientific). Results were calculated as nmol of 2-deoxy-
D-glucose min-1 (mg protein)-1 and are expressed as % of insu-
lin-only control. Statistical analysis; results were analyzed us-
ing two-tailed paired t tests.
