Hypothalamic ependymal‐glial cells express the glucose transporter GLUT2, a protein involved in glucose sensing

The GLUT2 glucose transporter and the K‐ATP‐sensitive potassium channels have been implicated as an integral part of the glucose‐sensing mechanism in the pancreatic islet β cells. The expression of GLUT2 and K‐ATP channels in the hypothalamic region suggest that they are also involved in a sensing m...
