Dec 25, 2024 · SLC1A5 (Solute Carrier Family 1 Member 5) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with SLC1A5 include Hartnup Disorder and Severe Nonproliferative Diabetic Retinopathy. Among its related pathways are Transport of inorganic cations/anions and amino acids/oligopeptides and Signaling by Rho GTPases.

Sep 4, 2018 · SLC1A5, known as ASCT2, is a neutral amino acid transporter belonging to the SLC1 family and localized in the plasma membrane of several body districts.

We investigated the role of the amino acid transporter SLC1A5 (ASCT2) and its association with BC subtypes and patient outcomes. In large BC cohorts, SLC1A5 mRNA (n = 9488) and SLC1A5 protein (n = 1274) levels were assessed and correlated their expression with clinicopathological features, molecular subtypes, and patient outcomes.

SLC1A5 co-expression with TALDO1 associates with endocrine therapy failure in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. A Variant of SLC1A5 Is a Mitochondrial Glutamine Transporter for Metabolic Reprogramming in Cancer Cells.

Feb 4, 2020 · Here, we show that the SLC1A5 variant plays a critical role in cancer metabolic reprogramming by transporting glutamine into mitochondria. The SLC1A5 variant has an N-terminal targeting signal for mitochondrial localization.

Dec 10, 2019 · In this study, ASCT2, an amino acid transporter responsible for glutamine transport, in addition to LAT1 and GLS, is overexpressed in HNSCC and associated with poor survival.

Solute linked carrier family 1 member A5 (SLC1A5) emerged as a top candidate. SLC1A5 acts as a high affinity transporter of L-glutamine (Gln) in rapidly growing epithelial and tumor cells in culture .

Nov 9, 2022 · SLC1A5 variant (SLC1A5_var) is identified as a mitochondrial glutamine transporter in cancer cells recently. However, the role of SLC1A5_var in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is completely...

Aug 10, 2023 · Solute carrier family 1 member 5 (SLC1A5) is a member of the solute carrier (SLC) superfamily of transporters and plays an important role in tumors as a key transporter of glutamine into cells.

In this study, we report the vital role of SLC1A5, the major glutamine transporter of tumor cells, in HCC progression and the formation of immunosuppressive TME.
