GLUT-5
actually for FRUCTOSE
both on BASOlateral side and APICAL side
fructose into cell and out of cell
SGLT-1
Symporter of sodium and glucose (or galactose) on APICAL microvilli (near lumen)
sodium and glucose INTO cell
REMEMBER: Na already low due to NKA and SYMporter capitalizes off of the diffusion of Na
GLUT-2
BASOlateral to complete the glucose transcellular passage
can potentially be recruited to apical side
insulin INdependent
GLUT-1
present on RBCs
insulin-INdependent
