Healthy vs. Type II Diabetes
Description
This template compares a healthy cell response to insulin, where insulin binding its receptor triggers the glucose transporter GLUT4 to import glucose, against a Type II diabetes state where a desensitized insulin receptor fails to activate glucose uptake. Red X marks in the diabetic panel indicate the blocked signaling and glucose transport pathways.
