GLUT2 Cancer Research Results

GLUT2, Glucose Transporter 2: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
GLUT2 is a member of the facilitative glucose transporter family, primarily responsible for the uptake of glucose and other hexoses into cells.

– In cancers like HCC, lower GLUT2 expression sometimes correlates with poorer differentiation and a more aggressive phenotype. As cancer cells shift toward a more glycolytic metabolism, they may rely less on the regulated glucose uptake observed in normal cells, and decreased GLUT2 expression can serve as a marker of this metabolic reprogramming.

1861- dietFMD,  Chemo,    Fasting induces anti-Warburg effect that increases respiration but reduces ATP-synthesis to promote apoptosis in colon cancer models
- in-vitro, Colon, CT26 - in-vivo, NA, NA

ATP:AMP↓, Accordingly, the ATP/AMP ratio, a good indicator of cellular energy charge, was dramatically reduced by the two STS settings
Glycolysis↓, results strongly support the effect of STS on reducing glycolysis and lactate production and increasing respiration at Complexes I-IV resulting in superoxide production/oxidative stress but in reduced ATP generation.

- Review, Var, NA
Risk↓, IF has shown potential for reducing cancer risk and enhancing therapeutic efficacy by sensitizing tumor cells to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

TumAuto↓, Intermittent fasting activates autophagy as an adaptive mechanism to nutrient deprivation, which may modulate tumor development and treatment
GLUT1↓, fasting reduces the expression of glucose transporters GLUT1/2, which slow down cancer metabolism and increase the susceptibility of cancer cells to oxidative stress
GLUT2↓,
glucose↓, studies on cell and animal models have shown that intermittent fasting reduces glucose and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) levels [103], as well as insulin [104,105], resulting in the inhibition of the mTOR kinase pathway (PI3K/Akt/mTOR), suppress

DNAdam↑,
JAK1↓, fasting reduces the production of adenosine by cancer cells, inhibiting the activation of the JAK1/STAT pathway, thereby reducing cancer cell proliferation

Glycolysis↓,
GlucoseCon↓, CP effectively restrained glucose consumption and lactic acid production.
