[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 93526, member: 2624"] Consumption of low-calorie sweeteners was associated with upregulation of gene expression for glucose transporters in experiments using human mesenchymal stromal cells and adipose tissue, according to new research. The effect was strongest in individuals with obesity. Using human subcutaneous fat tissue taken from individuals who consumed low-calorie sweeteners, Sabyasachi Sen, MD, of George Washington University, Washington, and his colleagues showed that these cells had at least a twofold overexpression of glucose transporters. Also overexpressed were sweet taste receptors and adipogenic genes. Using human subcutaneous fat tissue taken from individuals who consumed low-calorie sweeteners, Sabyasachi Sen, MD, of George Washington University, Washington, and his colleagues showed that these cells had at least a twofold overexpression of glucose transporters. Also overexpressed were sweet taste receptors and adipogenic genes. Further and larger studies are called for, especially in individuals with diabetes and obesity, Dr. Sen said.
