Glucose transporters are integral membrane glycoproteins involved in transporting glucose into most cells. There are many types of glucose transport carrier proteins, designated as Glut-1 to Glut-12. Glut-1, also known as SCL2A1, is a major glucose transporter in the mammalian blood-brain barrier. It is expressed in high density on the membranes of human erythrocytes and the brain capillaries that comprise the blood-brain barrier. Glut-1 is expressed at variable levels in many human tissues. Overexpression of Glut-1 has been linked to tumor progression or poor survival of patients with carcinomas of the colon, breast, cervical, lung , bladder and mesothelioma. Glut-1 is a sensitive and specific marker for the differentiatiation of malignant mesothelioma (positive) from reactive mesothelium (negative). (Shipping Cost: €200.00)
