Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - HRP Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (AB195021)

IHC image of Glucose Transporter GLUT1 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human colon tissue*, performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab195021 at 1/100 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset negative control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Western blot - HRP Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] (AB195021)

Western blot : HRP Anti-Glucose Transporter GLUT1 antibody [EPR3915] staining at 1/5000 dilution, shown in black; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab195021 was shown to bind specifically to Glucose Transporter GLUT1. A band was observed at 50-300 kDa in wild-type HepG2 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in SLC2A1 knockout cell line ab280797 (knockout cell lysate ab284224). To generate this image, wild-type and SLC2A1 knockout HepG2 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk in TBS-0.1% Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times before development with Optiblot (ECL reagent ab133456) and imaged with 4 minutes exposure time. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before being incubated with ab195021 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.

Supplementary information

The Glucose Transporter GLUT1 also known as SLC2A1 is an important protein responsible for the transport of glucose across cell membranes. The GLUT1 transporter has a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. This protein is highly expressed in erythrocytes endothelial cells lining blood vessels and in the blood-brain barrier. Its primary role is to facilitate the basal glucose uptake necessary for cellular metabolism particularly in tissues where glucose is a critical energy source.
Biological function summary

This glucose transporter plays a significant role in maintaining glucose homeostasis in the human body. GLUT1 functions independently and not as part of a complex. It ensures that glucose is available to cells with high metabolic demands including the brain and red blood cells where it remains important for survival and function. Its expression level can be influenced by various factors including hypoxia and insulin.

Pathways

GLUT1 is involved in the glycolysis and hypoxia-related pathways. It supports the glycolytic pathway by ensuring a sufficient supply of glucose to the cells which is then metabolized to produce ATP. Additionally during hypoxic conditions GLUT1 expression can increase aligning with proteins like HIF-1α which helps cells adapt by modifying their metabolism. This coordinated regulation permits cells to adjust their energy systems according to the oxygen availability.

GLUT1 is implicated in glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1 DS) and various forms of cancer. GLUT1 DS results from inadequate glucose transport into the brain presenting neurological symptoms due to energy deficiency. In cancer overexpression of GLUT1 links to increased glucose uptake and tumor growth a condition known to involve proteins like hexokinase. These associations underline GLUT1's contribution to both genetic defects and metabolic shifts in cancerous tissues.

Target data

Facilitative glucose transporter, which is responsible for constitutive or basal glucose uptake (PubMed : 10227690, PubMed : 10954735, PubMed : 18245775, PubMed : 19449892, PubMed : 25982116, PubMed : 27078104, PubMed : 32860739). Has a very broad substrate specificity; can transport a wide range of aldoses including both pentoses and hexoses (PubMed : 18245775, PubMed : 19449892). Most important energy carrier of the brain : present at the blood-brain barrier and assures the energy-independent, facilitative transport of glucose into the brain (PubMed : 10227690). In association with BSG and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by increasing glucose uptake into photoreceptors (By similarity). Required for mesendoderm differentiation (By similarity).
