Abstract

Glucose enters eucaryotic cells via 2 different types of membrane associated carrier proteins, the Na+‐coupled glucose transporters (SGLT) and glucose transporter facilitators (GLUT). Three members of the SGLT family function as sugar transporters (SGLT1 and SGLT2) or sensors (SGLT3). The human GLUT family consists of 14 members, of which 11 have been shown to catalyze sugar transport. The individual isotypes exhibit different substrate specificity, kinetic characteristics, and expression profiles, thereby allowing a tissue‐specific adaptation of glucose uptake through regulation of their gene expression. Furthermore, some transporters (eg, GLUT4 and GLUT8) are regulated by their subcellular distribution. In addition to catalyzing glucose entry into cells, some isotypes (eg, GLUT2) seem to be involved in the mechanisms of glucosensing of pancreatic beta‐cells, neuronal, or other cells, thereby playing a major role in the hormonal and neural control. Targeted disruption in mice has helped to elucidate the physiologic function of some isotypes (GLUT1, GLUT2, GLUT4). Furthermore, several congenital defects of sugar metabolism are caused by aberrant transporter genes (eg, the glucose‐galactose malabsorption syndrome, SGLT1; the glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome; and the Fanconi‐Bickel syndrome, GLUT2). In addition, a malfunction of glucose transporter expression or regulation (GLUT4) appears to contribute to the insulin resistance syndrome.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
