Scientific Data

Immunocytochemistry Glut4 antibody in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Immunocytochemistry (ICC). View Larger

Glut4 in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Glut4 was detected in immersion fixed human mesenchymal stem cells differentiated to adipocytes using Mouse Anti-Human Glut4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB8654) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Stem Cells on Coverslips.

Immunohistochemistry Glut4 antibody in Human Kidney by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P). View Larger

Glut4 in Human Kidney. Glut4 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human kidney using Mouse Anti-Human Glut4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB8654) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Mouse HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS002) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in tubular epithelial cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Background: Glut4

Glut4 (Glucose Transporter Member 4), also known as SLC2A4, is a 509 aa multi-pass type membrane protein and shares 65% aa identity with mouse Glut4.  It is an insulin-regulated glucose transporter.  Glut4 is most highly expressed in adipose and striated muscle tissues, but has also been reported in multiple other tissues including the nervous system and breast cancer.  Insulin stimulated transport of Glut4 has been shown to be impaired in type 2 diabetes patients.  Additionally, inhibition of Glut4 may be useful in reducing proliferation of breast cancer cells.
