Investigating the Expression and Function of the Glucose Transporter GLUT6 in Obesity.
Title: Investigating the Expression and Function of the Glucose Transporter GLUT6 in Obesity.
Study provides evidence that GLUT6 is a lysosomal transporter that is regulated by inflammatory stimuli and modulates inflammatory responses by affecting the metabolic shift in macrophages.
Title: GLUT6 is a lysosomal transporter that is regulated by inflammatory stimuli and modulates glycolysis in macrophages.
these data show that GLUT6 is not a major regulator of whole body metabolic physiology
Title: Knockout of glucose transporter GLUT6 has minimal effects on whole body metabolic physiology in mice.
In liver-specific Glut9 knockout mice, inosine-induced hyperuricemia was not associated with hypertension despite partial renal deficiency.
Title: No development of hypertension in the hyperuricemic liver-Glut9 knockout mouse.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
