Abstrakt: We evaluated whether insulin could stimulate β-alanine uptake by skeletal muscle cells in vitro. Mouse myoblasts (C2C12) (n = 3 wells per condition) were cultured with β-alanine (350 or 700 µmol·L -1 ), with insulin (100 µU·mL -1 ) either added to the media or not. Insulin stimulated the β-alanine uptake at the lower (350 µmol·L -1 ) but not higher (700 µmol·L -1 ) β-alanine concentration in culture medium, indicating that transporter saturation might blunt the stimulatory effects of insulin.
