SLC2A2 and Hypoglycemia: Also, in our experiments, the reduction in GLUT2 expression was limited to ependymal cells and tanycytes, while in the transgenic line, expression was also affected in neurons sensitive to hypoglycemia located in the brainstem (Tarussio et al., 2014) or neurons in the thalamus involved in carbohydrate preference (Labouebe et al., 2016).
