SLC7A5 and colorectal carcinoma: Given that Gln level can be regulated by enzymes GS and glutaminase (GLS) and amino acid transporters SLC1A5 and SLC7A5 (30), and that cancers cause dysregulation of GS and GLS (16), we detected relative mRNA levels of GLS, GS, SLC1A5, and SLC7A5 in fat tissues of mice with CRC or those of mice with CRC-PC by qPCR to evaluate the changes of Gln metabolism in CRC-PC.
