The availability of amino acids in the brain is regulated by the blood-brain barrier (BBB) large neutral amino acid transporter type 1 (LAT1) isoform, which is characterized by a high affinity (low Km) for substrate large neutral amino acids. The hypothesis that brain amino acid transport activity can be altered with single nucleotide polymorphisms was tested in the present studies with site-directed mutagenesis of the BBB LAT1. The rabbit has a high Km LAT1 large neutral amino acid transporter, as compared to the low Km neutral amino acid transporter at the human or rat BBB. The rabbit LAT1 was cloned from a rabbit brain capillary cDNA library. Alignment of the amino acid sequences of rabbit, human, and rat LAT1 revealed two radical amino acid residues that differ in the rabbit relative to the rat or human LAT1. The G219D mutation had a modest effect on the Km and Vmax of tryptophan transport via cloned rabbit LAT1 in frog oocytes, but the W234L variant reduced the Km by 64% and the Vmax by 96%. Conversely, LAT1 transport of either tryptophan or phenylalanine was nearly normalized when the double mutation W234L/G219D variant was produced. These studies show that marked changes in the affinity and capacity of the LAT1 are caused by single nucleotide polymorphisms and that phenotype can be restored with a double mutation. 相似文献

目的:微小RNA(microRNAs,miRNAs)在胆固醇的合成,代谢和转运中起着重要作用,而mi RNAs在胆固醇代谢物胆酸的代谢和转运中的作用尚不清楚。Dicer基因是miRNAs生成过程的关键酶。本课题使用肝脏特异的Dicer1基因敲除小鼠,考察肝脏Dicer1基因敲除对C57BL/6小鼠肝脏胆酸代谢和转运的影响。方法:使用白蛋白启动子驱动的Cre重组酶和Loxp系统(Alb-Cre/Loxp)在小鼠肝脏中特异的敲除Dicer1基因;分别收集3~12周龄的小鼠血液和肝脏组织,使用Cobas生化仪检测小鼠血液和肝脏中总胆酸含量;利用实时定量PCR的方法分析肝脏中胆汁酸代谢转运相关基因的表达。结果:实验发现,肝脏Dicer基因敲除后,胆酸在血液和肝脏中明显蓄积,弥漫性肝细胞轻微空泡化,偶见单个肝细胞坏死。检测胆酸代谢和转运相关基因的表达发现,胆酸合成相关基因的表达有轻度升高,但缺乏统计学差异;在肝脏细胞血管侧的胆酸摄取转运体中,Oatp1a1在Dicer1敲除小鼠肝脏中明显下调,Ntcp和Oatp1b2则无明显改变;而肝细胞血管侧胆酸外排转运体的表达均有显著升高,胆管侧的外排转运体中Abcb11表达有明显增加。结论:Dicer基因敲除后,胆酸在血液和肝脏中明显蓄积,肝脏和血液中胆酸总量显著增加。血液中胆酸的蓄积可能与肝脏细胞血管侧摄取转运体的低表达和血管侧外排转运体的高表达有关;而肝脏中胆酸的蓄积可能部分来自于轻度升高的胆酸合成酶,胆酸在肝细胞内运输途径的紊乱可能与肝脏和血液中胆酸总量的显著增加相关。 相似文献

The mechanisms underlying the transport of bile acids by apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (Asbt) are not well defined. To further identify the functionally relevant residues, thirteen conserved negatively (Asp and Glu) and positively (Lys and Arg) charged residues plus Cys-270 of rat Asbt were replaced with Ala or Gln by site-directed mutagenesis. Seven of the fourteen residues of rat Asbt were identified as functionally important by taurocholate transport studies, substrate inhibition assays, confocal microscopy, and electrophysiological methods. The results showed that Asp-122, Lys-191, Lys-225, Lys-256, Glu-261, and Lys-312,Lys-313 residues of rat Asbt are critical for transport function and may determine substrate specificity. Arg-64 may be located at a different binding site to assist in interaction with non-bile acid organic anions. For bile acid transport by Asbt, Na(+) ion movement is a voltage-dependent process that tightly companied with taurocholate movement. Asp-122 and Glu-261 play a critical role in the interaction of a Na(+) ion and ligand with Asbt. Cys-270 is not essential for the transport process. These studies provide new details about the amino acid residues of Asbt involved in binding and transport of bile acids and Na(+). 相似文献

The mouse Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide transiently expressed in COS-7 cells caused sodium-dependent uptake of [3H]taurocholic acid with Km and Vmax values of 18 microM and 102 pmol/mg protein/min, respectively. This Km value is comparable to that for rat NTCP and higher than that for human NTCP. Substrate specificity was evaluated by measuring inhibitory effects of unlabeled bile acids on [3H]taurocholic acid transport. 相似文献

Real-time measurements of bile acid uptake into HEK-293 cell monolayers expressing the human sodium/bile acid cotransporters have been demonstrated using Cytostar-T microplates with an integral scintillating base. In these 96-well microplates, which permits culturing and observation of adherent cell monolayers, uptake of (14)C-labeled glycocholate and taurocholate into transfected HEK-293 cells was time-dependent, sodium-stimulated, and saturable. The sodium-activated uptake of 30 microM [(14)C]glycocholate (GC) via the ileal (IBAT) and liver (LBAT) transporters was 30-40 times higher than GC uptake in a sodium-free background. In addition, ouabain inhibition of the plasma membrane Na(+), K(+)-ATPase, causing the sodium gradient to collapse, resulted in total loss of glycocholate transport. Induction of gene expression by sodium butyrate showed that the amount of labeled bile acid accumulated in the cell monolayers at steady state was a function of the total amount of transporter expressed. Uptake of labeled bile acids was inhibited both by the specific IBAT inhibitor, 2164U90, and by various bile acids. No major difference was observed between IBAT and LBAT in their specificity for the bile acids tested while the dihydroxy bile acids had the highest affinity for both the transporters studied. The Cytostar-T proximity assay has been demonstrated to be an accurate and reproducible method for monitoring specific bile acid transport in transfected mammalian cells and the results are similar to those obtained by traditional methods. We conclude that the technique is an attractive approach to the cellular study of membrane transport of radiolabeled solutes in general and suggest a role in screening and characterization of novel transport inhibitors. 相似文献

The substrate specificity of the ileal and the hepatic Na(+)/bile acid cotransporters was determined using brush border membrane vesicles and CHO cell lines permanently expressing the Na(+)/bile acid cotransporters from rabbit ileum or rabbit liver. The hepatic transporter showed a remarkably broad specificity for interaction with cholephilic compounds in contrast to the ileal system. The anion transport inhibitor diisothiocyanostilbene disulfonate (DIDS) is a strong inhibitor of the hepatic Na(+)/bile acid cotransporter, but does not show any affinity to its ileal counterpart. Inhibition studies and uptake measurements with about 40 different bile acid analogues differing in the number, position, and stereochemistry of the hydroxyl groups at the steroid nucleus resulted in clear structure;-activity relationships for the ileal and hepatic bile acid transporters. The affinity to the ileal and hepatic Na(+)/bile acid cotransport systems and the uptake rates by cell lines expressing those transporters as well as rabbit ileal brush border membrane vesicles is primarily determined by the substituents on the steroid nucleus. Two hydroxy groups at position 3, 7, or 12 are optimal whereas the presence of three hydroxy groups decreased affinity. Vicinal hydroxy groups at positions 6 and 7 or a shift of the 7-hydroxy group to the 6-position significantly decreased the affinity to the ileal transporter in contrast to the hepatic system. 6-Hydroxylated bile acid derivatives are preferred substrates of the hepatic Na(+)/bile acid cotransporter. Surprisingly, the 3alpha-hydroxy group being present in all natural bile acids is not essential for high affinity interaction with the ileal and the hepatic bile acid transporter. The 3alpha-hydroxy group seems to be necessary for optimal transport of a bile acid across the hepatocyte canalicular membrane. A modification of bile acids at the 3-position therefore conserves the bile acid character thus determining the 3-position of bile acids as the ideal position for drug targeting strategies using bile acid transport pathways. 相似文献

Fatty acid transport proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Fatty acid transport proteins are a family of proteins involved in fatty acid uptake and activation. This review summarizes recent progress in elucidating the function of fatty acid transport proteins. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent experiments clearly establish FATP1 as a regulated fatty acid transporter in both adipose tissue and muscle with important roles in energy homeostasis, thermogenesis and insulin resistance. Knockout of FATP5 in mice show it to be a bifunctional protein required for both hepatic fatty acid uptake and bile acid reconjugation. The most striking phenotype of FATP4 deletion is a defect in skin homeostasis, which may be due to its very long chain acyl-coenzyme A synthetase activity. Fatty acid transport proteins are increasingly being recognized as multifunctional proteins that can mediate the uptake of fatty acids as well as catalyze the formation of coenzyme A derivatives using long-chain and very-long chain fatty acids, bile acids and bile acid precursors as substrates. SUMMARY: Modulation of fatty acid transport protein function can result in altered energy homeostasis and insulin sensitivity, defective skin homeostasis, and altered bile acid metabolism. Both fatty acid uptake and enzymatic activity of fatty acid transport proteins likely contribute to these phenotypes. Future studies are needed to better understand the molecular mechanism of fatty acid transport protein function and the physiological role of FATP2, FATP3, and FATP6. 相似文献

The NTCP (Na?-taurocholate co-transporting protein)/SLC10A [solute carrier family 10 (Nav/bile acid co-transporter family)] 1 is tightly controlled to ensure hepatic bile salt uptake while preventing toxic bile salt accumulation. Many transport proteins require oligomerization for their activity and regulation. This is not yet established for bile salt transporters. The present study was conducted to elucidate the oligomeric state of NTCP. Chemical cross-linking revealed the presence of NTCP dimers in rat liver membranes and U2OS cells stably expressing NTCP. Co-immunoprecipitation of tagged NTCP proteins revealed a physical interaction between subunits. The C-terminus of NTCP was not required for subunit interaction, but was essential for exit from the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). NTCP without its C-terminus (NTCP Y307X) retained full-length wtNTCP (wild-type NTCP) in the ER in a dominant fashion, suggesting that dimerization occurs early in the secretory pathway. FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) using fluorescently labelled subunits further demonstrated that dimerization persists at the plasma membrane. NTCP belongs to the SLC10A protein family which consists of seven members. NTCP co-localized in U2OS cells with SLC10A4 and SLC10A6, but not with SLC10A3, SLC10A5 or SLC10A7. SLC10A4 and SLC10A6 co-immunoprecipitated with NTCP, demonstrating that heteromeric complexes can be formed between SLC10A family members in vitro. Expression of SLC10A4 and NTCP Y307X resulted in a reduction of NTCP abundance at the plasma membrane and NTCP-mediated taurocholate uptake, whereas expression of SLC10A6 or NTCP E257N, an inactive mutant, did not affect NTCP function. In conclusion, NTCP adopts a dimeric structure in which individual subunits are functional. Bile salt uptake is influenced by heterodimerization when this impairs NTCP plasma membrane trafficking. 相似文献

Functional contributions of residues Val-99-Ser-126 lining extracellular loop (EL) 1 of the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter were determined via cysteine-scanning mutagenesis, thiol modification, and in silico interpretation. Despite membrane expression for all but three constructs (S112C, Y117C, S126C), most EL1 mutants (64%) were inactivated by cysteine mutation, suggesting a functional role during sodium/bile acid co-transport. A negative charge at conserved residues Asp-120 and Asp-122 is required for transport function, whereas neutralization of charge at Asp-124 yields a functionally active transporter. D124A exerts low affinity for common bile acids except deoxycholic acid, which uniquely lacks a 7alpha-hydroxyl (OH) group. Overall, we conclude that (i) Asp-122 functions as a Na(+) sensor, binding one of two co-transported Na(+) ions, (ii) Asp-124 interacts with 7alpha-OH groups of bile acids, and (iii) apolar EL1 residues map to hydrophobic ligand pharmacophore features. Based on these data, we propose a comprehensive mechanistic model involving dynamic salt bridge pairs and hydrogen bonding involving multiple residues to describe sodium-dependent bile acid transporter-mediated bile acid and cation translocation. 相似文献

Na(+)-taurocholate-cotransporting peptide (NTCP)/SLC10A1 and bile salt export pump (BSEP)/ABCB11 synergistically play an important role in the transport of bile salts by the hepatocyte. In this study, we transfected human NTCP and BSEP or rat Ntcp and Bsep into LLC-PK1 cells, a cell line devoid of bile salts transporters. Transport by these cells was characterized with a focus on substrate specificity between rats and humans. The basal to apical flux of taurocholate across NTCP- and BSEP-expressing LLC-PK1 monolayers was 10 times higher than that in the opposite direction, whereas the flux across the monolayer of control and NTCP or BSEP single-expressing cells did not show any vectorial transport. The basal to apical flux of taurocholate was saturated with a K(m) value of 20 microM. Vectorial transcellular transport was also observed for cholate, chenodeoxycholate, ursodeoxycholate, their taurine and glycine conjugates, and taurodeoxycholate and glycodeoxycholate, whereas no transport of lithocholate was detected. To evaluate the respective functions of NTCP and BSEP and to compare them with those of rat Ntcp and Bsep, we calculated the clearance by each transporter in this system. A good correlation in the clearance of the examined bile salts (cholate, chenodeoxycholate, ursodeoxycholate, and their taurine or glycine conjugates) was observed between transport by human and that of rat transporters in terms of their rank order: for NTCP, taurine conjugates > glycine conjugates > unconjugated bile salts, and for BSEP, unconjugated bile salts and glycine conjugates > taurine conjugates. In conclusion, the substrate specificity of human and rat NTCP and BSEP appear to be very similar at least for monovalent bile salts under physiological conditions. 相似文献

Transport of a series of 3H-radiolabeled C23, C24, and C27 bile acid derivatives was compared and contrasted in HeLa cell lines stably transfected with rat Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (ntcp) or organic anion transporting polypeptide 1 (oatp1) in which expression was under regulation of a zinc-inducible promoter. Similar uptake patterns were observed for both ntcp and oatp1, except that unconjugated hyodeoxycholate was a substrate of oatp1 but not ntcp. Conjugated bile acids were transported better than nonconjugated bile acids, and the configuration of the hydroxyl groups (alpha or beta) had little influence on uptake. Although cholic and 23 norcholic acids were transported by ntcp and oatp1, other unconjugated bile acids (chenodeoxycholic, ursodeoxycholic) were not. In contrast to ntcp, oatp1-mediated uptake of the trihydroxy bile acids taurocholate and glycocholate was four- to eightfold below that of the corresponding dihydroxy conjugates. Ntcp mediated high affinity, sodium-dependent transport of [35S]sulfobromophthalein with a Km similar to that of oatp1-mediated transport of [35S]sulfobromophthalein (Km = 3.7 vs. 3.3 muM, respectively). In addition, for both transporters, uptake of sulfobromophthalein and taurocholic acid showed mutual competitive inhibition. These results indicate that the substrate specificity of ntcp is considerably broader than previously suspected and caution the extrapolation of transport data obtained in vitro to physiological function in vivo. 相似文献

Intestinal handling of bile acids is age dependent; adult, but not newborn, ileum absorbs bile acids, and adult, but not weanling or newborn, distal colon secretes Cl(-) in response to bile acids. Bile acid transport involving the apical Na(+)-dependent bile acid transporter (Asbt) and lipid-binding protein (LBP) is well characterized in the ileum, but little is known about colonic bile acid transport. We investigated colonic bile acid transport and the nature of the underlying transporters and receptors. Colon from adult, weanling, and newborn rabbits was screened by semiquantitative RT-PCR for Asbt, its truncated variant t-Asbt, LBP, multidrug resistance-associated protein 3, organic solute transporter-alpha, and farnesoid X receptor. Asbt and LBP showed maximal expression in weanling and significantly less expression in adult and newborn rabbits. The ileum, but not the colon, expressed t-Asbt. Asbt, LBP, and farnesoid X receptor mRNA expression in weanling colon parallel the profile in adult ileum, a tissue designed for high bile acid absorption. To examine their functional role, transepithelial [(3)H]taurocholate transport was measured in weanling and adult colon and ileum. Under short-circuit conditions, weanling colon and ileum and adult ileum showed net bile acid absorption: 1.23 +/- 0.62, 5.53 +/- 1.20, and 11.41 +/- 3.45 nmol x cm(-2) x h(-1), respectively. However, adult colon secreted bile acids (-1.39 +/- 0.47 nmol x cm(-2) x h(-1)). We demonstrate for the first time that weanling, but not adult, distal colon shows net bile acid absorption. Thus increased expression of Asbt and LBP in weanling colon, which is associated with parallel increases in taurocholate absorption, has relevance in enterohepatic conservation of bile acids when ileal bile acid recycling is not fully developed. 相似文献

Bile acids are biosynthesized from cholesterol in hepatocytes and usually localize in the enterohepatic circulation system. This system is regulated by several transporters that are expressed in the liver and intestine. Organic solute transporter (OST) α/β, which is known as a bidirectional transporter for some organic anions, contributes to the transport of bile acids; however, the transport properties of individual bile acids are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the transport properties of five bile acids (cholic acid [CA], chenodeoxycholic acid [CDCA], deoxycholic acid [DCA], ursodeoxycholic acid [UDCA], and lithocholic acid [LCA]) together with their glycine and taurine conjugates mediated by OSTα/β. Of the unconjugated bile acids, CA, CDCA, DCA, and LCA were taken up by OSTαβ/MDCKII cells more rapidly than mock cells, but no significant increase in the uptake of UDCA was observed. On the contrary, all glycine- and taurine-conjugated bile acids showed a significant increase in the uptake by OSTαβ/MDCKII cells. Saturable OSTα/β-mediated transports of CDCA, DCA, glycochenodeoxycholic acid (GCDCA), glycodeoxycholic acid (GDCA), glycolithocholic acid (GLCA), taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA), and taurolithocholic acid (TLCA) were observed. The apparent Michaelis constants of CDCA, DCA, GCDCA, GDCA, GLCA, TCDCA, and TLCA for OSTα/β were 23.0 ± 4.0, 14.9 ± 1.9, 864.2 ± 80.7, 586.4 ± 43.2, 12.8 ± 0.5, 723.7 ± 4.8, and 23.9 ± 0.3 μM, respectively. However, the transport of other bile acids was not saturable. Our results indicate that OSTα/β has a low affinity but a high capacity for transporting bile acids. 相似文献

Bile acids are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver and are excreted into bile via the hepatocyte canalicular bile salt export pump. After their passage into the intestine, bile acids are reabsorbed in the ileum by sodium-dependent uptake across the apical membrane of enterocytes. At the basolateral domain of ileal enterocytes, bile acids are extruded into portal blood by the heterodimeric organic solute transporter OSTalpha/OSTbeta. Although the transport function of OSTalpha/OSTbeta has been characterized, little is known about the regulation of its expression. We show here that human OSTalpha/OSTbeta expression is induced by bile acids through ligand-dependent transactivation of both OST genes by the nuclear bile acid receptor/farnesoid X receptor (FXR). FXR agonists induced endogenous mRNA levels of OSTalpha and OSTbeta in cultured cells, an effect that was not discernible upon inhibition of FXR expression by small interfering RNAs. Furthermore, OST mRNAs were induced in human ileal biopsies exposed to the bile acid chenodeoxycholic acid. Reporter constructs containing OSTalpha or OSTbeta promoters were transactivated by FXR in the presence of its ligand. Two functional FXR binding motifs were identified in the OSTalpha gene and one in the OSTbeta gene. Targeted mutation of these elements led to reduced inducibility of both OST promoters by FXR. In conclusion, the genes encoding the human OSTalpha/OSTbeta complex are induced by bile acids and FXR. By coordinated control of OSTalpha/OSTbeta expression, bile acids may adjust the rate of their own efflux from enterocytes in response to changes in intracellular bile acid levels. 相似文献

The human proton-coupled folate transporter (hPCFT) is a recently discovered intestinal transporter involved in folate uptake in epithelia (and possibly other cells). Little is currently known about the structure-function relationship of the different domains of this transporter, particularly which regions are important for substrate transport as well as targeting of the transporter to the apical cell surface of polarized cells. Here we have investigated the role of the COOH-terminal domain and a well-conserved sequence separating transmembrane (TM) domains TM2 and TM3 (DXXGRR; amino acids 109-114) speculated by others to be important for transport function. Using live cell imaging approaches, we show that 1) an hPCFT-yellow fluorescent protein construct is functionally expressed at the apical membrane domain and is localized differentially to the human reduced folate carrier; 2) the predicted cytoplasmic COOH-terminal region of hPCFT is not essential for apical targeting or transporter functionality; 3) mutations that ablate a consensus beta-turn sequence separating predicted TM2 and TM3 abolished apical [(3)H]folic acid uptake as a consequence of endoplasmic reticulum retention of mutant, likely misfolded, transporters; and 4) cell surface delivery of hPCFT is disrupted by microtubule depolymerization or by overexpression of the dynactin complex dynamitin (p50). For the first time, our data present information regarding structure-function and membrane targeting of the hPCFT polypeptide, as well as the mechanisms that control its steady-state expression in polarized cells. 相似文献

Polymorphisms in OATP-C: identification of multiple allelic variants associated with altered transport activity among European- and African-Americans 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The human organic anion transporting polypeptide-C (OATP-C) (gene SLC21A6) is a liver-specific transporter importantly involved in the hepatocellular uptake of a variety of endogenous and foreign chemicals. In this study, we demonstrate the presence of multiple functionally relevant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in OATP-C in a population of African- and European-Americans. Moreover, examination of 14 nonsynonymous polymorphisms indicated that genotypic frequencies were dependent on race. Functional assessment of 16 OATP-C alleles in vitro revealed that several variants exhibited markedly reduced uptake of the OATP-C substrates estrone sulfate and estradiol 17beta-d-glucuronide. Specifically, alterations in transport were associated with SNPs that introduce amino acid changes within the transmembrane-spanning domains (T217C (Phe-73 --> Leu), T245C (Val-82 --> Ala), T521C (Val-174 --> Ala), and T1058C (Ile-353 --> Thr)) and also with those that modify extracellular loop 5 (A1294G (Asn-432 --> Asp), A1385G (Asp-462 --> Gly), and A1463C (Gly-488 --> Ala)). Cell surface biotinylation experiments indicated that the altered transport activity of some OATP-C variants was due, in part, to decreased plasma membrane expression. Given the relatively high genotypic frequency of the T521C (14%) transition in European-Americans and the G1463C (9%) transversion in African-Americans, SNPs in OATP-C may represent a heretofore unrecognized factor influencing drug disposition. 相似文献
