Glucose regulates its own transport in Ehrlich ascites tumour cells. 1986

K P Fung, and Y M Choy, and T W Chan, and W P Lam, and C Y Lee

The capacity of Ehrlich ascites tumour cells to take up 2-deoxy-D-glucose and to bind cytochalasin B varies adaptatively with the level of glucose in the plasma or culture medium. The effect of glucose is exerted directly on the cells and does not necessarily require the participation of hormones such as insulin, glucagon or corticosterone, although glucagon and the glucocorticoids, but not insulin, can also increase the number of glucose carrier molecules administered in vitro. Cycloheximide suppresses the acute inductive effect of glucose, suggesting that protein synthesis might be required for the increased transport activity.

D009004 Monosaccharide Transport Proteins A large group of membrane transport proteins that shuttle MONOSACCHARIDES across CELL MEMBRANES.

D009363 Neoplasm Proteins Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm. Proteins, Neoplasm

D006728 Hormones Chemical substances having a specific regulatory effect on the activity of a certain organ or organs. The term was originally applied to substances secreted by various ENDOCRINE GLANDS and transported in the bloodstream to the target organs. It is sometimes extended to include those substances that are not produced by the endocrine glands but that have similar effects.
