Several studies have reported increased glucose transporters (GLUT) expression in different cancer types, including breast cancer. The primary purpose of this study is to examine GLUT1 immunoexpression in breast cancer patients in Saudi Arabia and to determine its significance. The study examined the association between GLUT1 immunophenotype and the clinicopathological characteristics in breast cancer. GLUT1 expression was analyzed in retrospectively collected tissue samples (n = 578) from breast cancer patients using immunohistochemistry. A total of 311 (54%) of the cases expressed GLUT1 cytoplasmic immunohistochemical staining. In univariate analysis, we found a significant association between GLUT1 expression and high-grade tumors (p &lt; 0.0001). Positive estrogen and progesterone receptor results predicted lower GLUT1 immunoexpression (p &lt; 0.0001 for both). Vascular invasion showed a significant association with GLUT1 immunoexpression (p = 0.045). Our findings support that GLUT1 immunohistochemistry can be used as a marker to determine the grade and hormonal receptor status in breast cancer.
