These and other findings led to the conclusion that (1) SGLT5 is the main renal transporter of 1,5-AG; (2) frequent heterozygous mutations (allelic frequency > 1%) in SGLT5 lower blood 1,5-AG, favourably influencing neutropenia in G6PC3 or G6PT deficiency; (3) the effect of SGLT2-inhibitors on blood 1,5-AG level is largely indirect; (4) specific SGLT5-inhibitors would be more efficient to treat these neutropenias than SGLT2-inhibitors. The gene discussed is SLC5A10; the disease is hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, familial, 4.
