GLUT
Glucose transporter
GLUTs (Glucose transporters ) are proteins comprising 12 membrane-spanning regions. GLUTs transport glucose across the plasma membrane by means of a facilitated diffusion mechanism.
GLUT1 (SLC2A1), a uniporter protein, facilitates the transport of glucose across the plasma membranes of mammalian cells. GLUT2 (SLC2A2) is a transmembrane carrier protein that enables protein facilitated glucose movement across cell membranes. GLUT3 (SLC2A3), mainly present in the brain, has high affinity for glucose. GLUT3 facilitates the transport of glucose across the plasma membranes of mammalian cells. GLUT4 (SLC2A4) is found in the heart, skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and brain. GLUT4 is an insulin-responsive glucose transporter.

Fasentin (Standard)
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-101849RCAS No.: 392721-37-8Fasentin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Fasentin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Fasentin, a potent glucose uptake inhibitor, inhibits GLUT-1/GLUT-4 transporters. Fasentin preferentially inhibits GLUT4 (IC50=68 μM) over GLUT1. Fasentin is a death receptor stimuli (FAS) sensitizer and sensitizes cells to FAS-induced cell death. Fasentin is also a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) apoptosis-inducing ligand sensitizer. Fasentin blocks glucose uptake in cancer cell lines and has anti-angiogenic activity.

α-lipoic acid derivative 1
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-120974CAS No.: 691410-93-2α-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 (Compound AN-7) is an α-lipoic acid derivative that enhances glucose transport in skeletal muscle by releasing active α-lipoic acid (LA), significantly improving glucose metabolism. In L6 skeletal muscle cells, α-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 significantly increases glucose transport rates, approximately 12 times more potent than the parent compound α-lipoic acid (HY-N0492). In a mild diabetic mouse model, 10 mg/kg of α-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 administered for two weeks significantly reduced blood glucose levels by 39%. α-Lipoic Acid Derivative 1 shows significant potential in research related to glucose metabolism in diabetes.

Sennidin B (Standard)
0 ImagesSennidin B (Standard) is the analytical standard of Sennidin B. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Sennidin B, a stereoisomer isolated from the leaves of Cassia angustifolia, has lower activity than Sennidin A. Sennidin A inhibits HCV NS3 helicase, with an IC50 of 0.8 μM. Sennidin A induces phosphorylation of Akt and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation. Sennidin A stimulates the glucose incorporation .
