The kidneys play a major role in the regulation of glucose levels.
Kidneys filter approx.
180g of glucose per day from the blood, and this is mostly reabsorbed back into the blood in the proximal tubules.
Typically, glucose is first absorbed within epithelium by a specific transporter protein, sodium glucose co-transporters (SGLT), in the brush-border membrane and then it is transported out of the cell across the basolateral membranes bya facilitated sugar transporter (GLUTs).
At least 3 members of SGLTs (SGLT1-3) have been cloned and characterized from various species.
Individual members of this family have identical predicted secondary structures with up to 14 transmembrane domains.
SGLT1-3 genes code for protein of approx 659-672 residues (75kD).
Both N and C termini are predicted to be extracellular.
There is approx 60-70% homology between SGLT1-3.
SGLTs transport a-methyl-D-glucoside (a-MDG), a non metabolized model substrate, in Na-dependent manner.
SGLT1 does not discriminate a-MDG, glucose, and galactose.
SGLT2/3 do not transport D-galactose efficiently.
