The human SLC2A3 gene, which is sometimes referred to as the glucose transporter 3 (GLUT3), is situated on chromosome 12p13.31 and contains a 2000 bp open reading frame. With its twelve transmembrane domains, the SLC2A3 protein is essential for the passage of glucose across cell membranes. The primary site of expression for SLC2A3 is in neurons, where it aids in the uptake of glucose, which is necessary for the metabolism and operation of neurons. Its expression is strictly controlled and reacts to metabolic needs, supplying the brain with an appropriate amount of glucose. Chinese hamster ovary cell line CHO-K1 is frequently utilized in pharmaceutical and biotechnology research. Because they are adherent and grow in suspension, these cells are scalable and easy to handle in large-scale production. Because CHO-K1 cells are genetically stable and can produce different recombinant proteins, they can be used for both protein synthesis and medication development.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of RCC. Researchers used the SLC2A3 cell line to explore the regulatory mechanism of LINC01094 in the development of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The targeting relationship between miR-184, LINC01094, and SLC2A3 was verified through dual-luciferase reporter experiments. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down experiments further confirmed the interaction between LINC01094 and miR-184. The biological behavior of ccRCC cells was studied through cell counting kit-8 (CCK8), scratch assay, Transwell assay, and flow cytometry. In in vivo experiments, the effect of SLC2A3 on tumor formation ability in nude mice was evaluated. The results showed that LINC01094 and SLC2A3 were highly expressed, while miR-184 was low expressed in ccRCC cells and clinical tissues. miR-184 was verified as a direct target of LINC01094. Silencing LINC01094, upregulating miR-184, or reducing SLC2A3 inhibited the growth, migration, and invasion of ccRCC cells. Silencing LINC01094 reduces the expression of SLC2A3 by upregulating miR-184, thereby inhibiting the development of ccRCC.

Figure 1 shows the regulatory relationship between miR-184 and SLC2A3 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), verifying the expression of SLC2A3 as a target gene of miR-184 in ccRCC and its impact on cell viability, migration, invasion, and apoptosis.

The researchers used the SLC2A3-related cell line (SLC2A3 gene silencing cell line, SLC2A3 gene overexpression cell line) and used bioinformatics prediction, dual-luciferase reporter gene, microarray, Western Blot, immunohistochemistry, RT-qPCR, CCK-8, scratch assay, Transwell, flow cytometry, and other methods to analyze the regulatory relationship between miR-184 and SLC2A3 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

1. Neuronal Glucose Uptake: The SLC2A3 gene, often known as GLUT3, is required for the transport of glucose in neurons, which is critical for brain function and metabolism. 2. Metabolic Response: SLC2A3 expression modifies in response to metabolic requirements, guaranteeing adequate brain glucose supply. 3. Protein Synthesis: Due to their genetic stability, CHO-K1 cells are perfect for generating a wide range of recombinant proteins. 4. Drug Development: The adaptability of CHO-K1 cells makes their application in drug development possible, which advances biotechnology research.
Customer Q&As
What are the advantages of this cell line in studying glucose metabolism?

A: Human SLC2A3 Stable Cell Line-CHOK1 has significant advantages in glucose metabolism research because SLC2A3 (also known as GLUT3) is a high-affinity glucose transporter that is mainly responsible for the transport of glucose across the membrane. This makes this cell line particularly suitable for studying glucose uptake and metabolic pathways in cells. In addition, the CHOK1 cell line itself has been widely used in metabolic research and is highly operable and reproducible.

How to ensure functional expression of SLC2A3 in experimental design?

A: Several methods can be used to ensure functional expression of SLC2A3. First, qPCR and Western Blotting were used to confirm the mRNA and protein levels of SLC2A3. Second, the functional activity of SLC2A3 is assessed by glucose uptake experiments (e.g., using radioactively labeled glucose or fluorescently labeled glucose analogs). In addition, cell growth and survival experiments can be performed to detect the physiological response of cells under different glucose concentrations to further verify the functionality of SLC2A3.

What are the special requirements for the culture conditions of this cell line?

A: The culture conditions of Human SLC2A3 Stable Cell Line-CHOK1 are similar to general CHOK1 cells, but special attention needs to be paid to glucose concentration and culture medium composition to ensure optimal expression and function. It is recommended to use high glucose DMEM medium and appropriately supplement serum and necessary antibiotics to maintain cell growth and stability. In addition, the expression level and function of SLC2A3 need to be regularly tested during the screening and culture process to ensure its stability and activity.
