Heilig C, Deb D, Abdul A, Riaz H, James L, Salameh J, et al.
Am J Nephrol . 2013 Jul; 38(1):39-49. PMID: 23817135
Diabetic glomerulosclerosis is characterized by accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, mesangial expansion, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Hyperglycemia accelerates development of the disease, a direct result of increased intracellular glucose availability. The...

Marin-Valencia I, Good L, Ma Q, Duarte J, Bottiglieri T, Sinton C, et al.
Neurobiol Dis . 2012 Jun; 48(1):92-101. PMID: 22683290
Brain glucose supplies most of the carbon required for acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) generation (an important step for myelin synthesis) and for neurotransmitter production via further metabolism of acetyl-CoA in the...

Buller C, Heilig C, Brosius 3rd F
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol . 2011 May; 301(3):F588-96. PMID: 21613414
Enhanced GLUT1 expression in mesangial cells plays an important role in the development of diabetic nephropathy by stimulating signaling through several pathways resulting in increased glomerular matrix accumulation. Similarly, enhanced...

Hsu C, Kao W, Steffes M, Gambir T, Brancati F, Heilig C, et al.
BMC Med Genet . 2011 Jan; 12:16. PMID: 21247498
Background: Evidence suggests glucose transporter-1 (GLUT1) genetic variation affects diabetic nephropathy and albuminuria. Our aim was to evaluate associations with albuminuria of six GLUT1 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs), particularly XbaI and...

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol . 2010 Apr; 299(1):F91-8. PMID: 20375116
Increased expression of the facilitative glucose transporter, GLUT1, leads to glomerulopathy that resembles diabetic nephropathy, whereas prevention of enhanced GLUT1 expression retards nephropathy. While many of the GLUT1-mediated effects are...
