Canagliflozin inhibits 2-deoxyglucose uptake in HUVECs without influencing cell proliferation. (a) HUVECs were preincubated in the presence or absence of canagliflozin (10 μmol/l) for the times indicated or dapagliflozin (10 μmol/l, 30 min) and 2-deoxyglucose uptake assessed. Data shown represents the mean 2-deoxyglucose uptake relative to vehicle from three independent experiments. **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 relative to vehicle (one-way ANOVA). (b) Cell lysates from HUVECs (2 independent lysates), HAECs (4 independent lysates) and HEK-293 cells and mouse kidney membranes were resolved by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotted with anti-SGLT2 antibodies. The immunoblot shown has been cropped, with the full-length immunoblot shown in Supplementary Figure S7. (c,d) HUVECs were incubated in the presence or absence of canagliflozin, dapagliflozin or empagliflozin and (c) proliferation assessed in 2.5% (v/v) or 5% (v/v) MV2 Supplement mix (serum) by BrdU incorporation or (d) viability assessed by MTS assay. Data shown represents the mean proliferation or viability relative to vehicle (in 5% MV2 supplement mix) from three independent experiments in each cae. ##p < 0.01 relative to vehicle (two-tailed t-test).
