Background

Glucose transporter 8 is an insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. It binds cytochalasin B in a glucose-inhibitable manner. It appears to be a dual-specific sugar transporter as it can be inhibited by fructose. It is highly expressed in testis, where it is down-regulated by estrogen, but not in testicular carcinoma. Lower amounts are present in most other tissues.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
