Note that a mean GLUT-1 mRNA expression determined by qPCR was 1.6-fold higher in prostate cancer cells (LNCaP, 22Rv1, VCaP, PC-3, and DU145 cell lines) in comparison with human non-cancer cells (PNT2, RWPE-1, HEK 293T, MRC-9, and HUVEC cell lines), which correlated with the selectivity of the compounds (Figure 3A). The gene discussed is SLC2A1; the disease is prostate carcinoma.
