Overview on the distribution of SGLT1 and SGLT2 in mouse, rat, and human pancreatic cells as well as pancreatic cell lines

SGLT isoform Species Localization Details and reference
SGLT1 Mouse Islet α-cells SGLT1 mRNA and protein expression [9].
SGLT1 protein expression [141].
SGLT1 mRNA expression [137].
Islet β-cells Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [66].
Islet δ-cells Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [66].
Islet cluster Increased SGLT1 mRNA levels in islets isolated from ob/ob mice followed by a decline of expression levels in aged ob/ob mice [9].
Low SGLT1 mRNA expression [66].
SGLT1 mRNA and protein expression [141].
Increased SGLT1 expression levels in db/db mice reported [141].
Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [89].
α-TC1 cell line SGLT1 mRNA expression [137, 141].
Increased SGLT1 expression levels at high glucose conditions reported [141].
Pancreas in total Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [80].
Exocrine pancreas SGLT1 protein expression in duct cells [80].
Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [89].
Human Islet α-cells SGLT1 mRNA and protein expression [9].
SGLT1 mRNA expression [27, 66, 133].
Islet β-cells Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [66].
Islet cluster Enriched SGLT1 mRNA levels in islets isolated from obese, glucose intolerant or T2D patients compared to lean controls reported [9].
In contrast to SGLT1 in the murine islet and the findings observed for SGLT2, SGLT1 mRNA ratios remained elevated during the progression from insulin resistance to diabetes shown [9].
SGLT1 mRNA and protein expression [137, 141].
High variability of SGLT1 expression in human islet samples isolated from different donors. In average, SGLT1 mRNA transcripts are more abundant than SGLT2 mRNA transcripts reported [128].
Rat Islet cluster Low levels SGLT1 mRNA expression [66].
Pancreas in total Low SGLT1 mRNA expression levels [80].
SGLT2 Mouse Islet α-cells SGLT2 protein expression [9].
Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
Few SGLT2 transcripts [151].
Islet β-cells Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
Few SGLT2 transcripts [151].
Islet δ-cells Specific expression of SGLT2 transcripts in 58% of δ-cell population reported [151].
Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
α-TC1 cell line SGLT2 mRNA and protein expression [62].
Temporary high glucose concentrations resulted in an increase in SGLT2 mRNA and protein expression in murine α-TC1 cells. Culture up to 72 h at high glucose concentrations resulted in a decrease in SGLT2 mRNA and protein expression in murine α-TC1 cells reported [62].
Islet cluster SGLT2 mRNA expression [9].
SGLT2 protein expression [9].
SGLT2 expression increased in ob/ob mice from 5 to 8 weeks and declined at the age of 15 weeks when mice became overtly hyperglycemic reported [9].
Human Islet α-cells SGLT2 mRNA and protein expression [9].
Enriched mRNA levels in islets isolated from obese, glucose intolerant or T2D patients compared to lean controls [9].
Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
Few SGLT2 transcripts [151].
Islet β-cells Few SGLT2 transcripts [151].
Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
Islet δ-cells Specific expression of SGLT2 transcripts in 33% of δ-cell population reported [151].
Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
Islet cluster Marginal, below the detection limit, SGLT2 mRNA signals reported [66].
SGLT2 mRNA expression [128].
SGLT2 mRNA expression in human donors is highly heterogeneous [128].
Pearson’s correlation underlines SGLT2 and glucagon colocalization by [128].
Pancreas in total SGLT2 mRNA expression [19].
