Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and cellular regulation of glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins in cancer
TL;DR: Targeting GLUT12 could provide novel methods for detection and treatment of breast and prostate cancer and help clarify the role of glucose transporter expression in breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of a novel glucose transporter-like protein-GLUT-12.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the characteristics of facilitative glucose transporters and how these characteristics contribute to specialized metabolic properties of cells, including variable hexose affinity and tissue-specific expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression and localisation of GLUT1 and GLUT12 glucose transporters in the pregnant and lactating rat mammary gland.
TL;DR: A possible role for GLUT12 in the metabolism of mammary epithelial cells during pregnancy and lactation is suggested by the results of a confocal immunofluorescence study on pregnant and lactating rat mammary gland.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression during rat fetal development of GLUT12 – a member of the class III hexose transporter family
TL;DR: The specific pattern of expression observed in the rat fetus suggests that GLUT12 may be important in hexose delivery to developing tissues, and a potential role forGLUT12 in the provision of glucose to these tissues before the appearance of GLUT4.
