2.A.7.16.1
The GDP-fucose transporter (GFT) (defective in human leukocyte adhesion disease II) (SLC35C1) (Zhang et al. 2012).  SLC35A1 and SLC35C1, have been related to congenital disorder of glycosylation II (CDG II) (Song 2013). Triclosan activates c-Jun/miR-218-1-3p/SLC35C1 signaling to regulate the cell viability, migration, invasion and inflammatory response of trophoblast cells (Huo et al. 2022). Elevated global fucosylation characterizes human intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, contributing to cell growth and migration via the upregulation of the NOTCH and EGFR/NF-kB pathways (Ament et al. 2023). SLC35C1 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasive ability of glioma cells, while SLC35C1 overexpression promoted proliferation, migration, invasion and colony formation of glioma cells (Xie et al. 2023).
