Localization of facilitated-diffusion glucose transporter GLUT1 was examined in the rat mammary gland by immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoperoxidase electron microscopy. Secretory epithelial cells of acini were enriched with GLUT1, which was localized to the basolateral plasma membrane. Apical plasma membrane and cytoplasmic organelles including the Golgi apparatus were negative for GLUT1. In addition to acini, abundant GLUT1 was found in the perineurium of nerve fiber bundles, which is a site of blood-nerve barriers. GLUT1 in the basolateral membrane of secretory epithelial cells seems to serve as machinery to take up glucose into the cell for milk synthesis and secretion.
