These data match the expression courses of the respective transporters – GLUT and SVCT2 – in brain capillary endothelia: GLUTs are constitutively expressed in the brain endothelium in healthy as well as ischemic brain tissue [25], [26], [27], whereas SVCT2, as we show in our time course analyses, is expressed in brain endothelium only in the subacute phase after stroke. Here, SLC2A1 is linked to stroke disorder.
