The major facilitator superfamily (MFS) is the largest known superfamily of secondary active
transporters. MFS transporters are responsible for transporting a broad spectrum of …

The structure and function of glucose transporters of the mammalian GLUT family of proteins
has been studied over many decades, and the proteins have fascinated numerous research …

WZB117 (2-fluoro-6-(m-hydroxybenzoyloxy) phenyl m-hydroxybenzoate) inhibits passive
sugar transport in human erythrocytes and cancer cell lines and, by limiting glycolysis …

Infection of primary CD4+ T cells with HIV-1 coincides with an increase in glycolysis. We
investigated the expression of glucose transporters (GLUT) and glycolytic enzymes in …

This review examines the development of structure and function of the human GLUT
proteins, gene family hSLC2A. These proteins are essential for moving the key metabolites …

The major facilitator superfamily (MFS) of transporters consists of three classes of membrane
transporters: symporters, uniporters, and antiporters. Despite such diverse functions, MFS …

The antioxidant-and flavonoid-rich contents of red wine and green tea are reported to offer
protection against cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Some studies, however …

The human blood-brain barrier glucose transport protein (GLUT1) forms homodimers and
homotetramers in detergent micelles and in cell membranes, where the GLUT1 oligomeric …

In the brain, glucose enters astrocytes through glucose transporter (GLUT1) and either
enters glycolysis or the glycogen shunt. Astrocytes meet the energy needs of neurons by …

Human sodium-independent glucose cotransporter 1 (hGLUT1) has been studied for its
tetramerization and multimerization at the cell surface. Homozygous or compound …
