We investigated the contribution of the Na+/l-carnitine cotransporter in the transport of tetraethylammonium (TEA) by rat renal brush-border membrane vesicles. The transient uphill transport of l-carnitine was observed in the presence of a Na+ gradient. The uptake of l-carnitine was of high affinity (Km=21 μM) and pH dependent. Various compounds such as TEA, cephaloridine, and p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate (PCMBS) had potent inhibitory effects for l-carnitine uptake. Therefore, we confirmed the Na+/l-carnitine cotransport activity in rat renal brush-border membranes. Levofloxacin and PCMBS showed different inhibitory effects for TEA and l-carnitine uptake. The presence of an outward H+ gradient induced a marked stimulation of TEA uptake, whereas it induced no stimulation of l-carnitine uptake. Furthermore, unlabeled TEA preloaded in the vesicles markedly enhanced [14C]TEA uptake, but unlabeled l-carnitine did not stimulate [14C]TEA uptake. These results suggest that transport of TEA across brush-border membranes is independent of the Na+/l-carnitine cotransport activity, and organic cation secretion across brush-border membranes is predominantly mediated by the H+/organic cation antiporter. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated inhibition of Na+-dependent 32Pi transport in canine renal brush-border membranes in association with NAD+-induced ADP ribosylation of membrane protein(s) and postulated that NAD+ inhibits Pi transport across the brush-border membrane via ADP ribosylation. Recently it was shown that incubation of rat brush-border membrane with NAD+ resulted in release of Pi which was prevented by EDTA. It was proposed that NAD+-mediated inhibition of 32Pi transport might occur through this mechanism. To determine whether NAD+ inhibited 32Pi transport by a mechanism other than or in addition to release of Pi, we compared Na+-dependent 32Pi counterflow in brush-border membrane equilibrated with Pi or with Pi generated from NAD+. Release of Pi from NAD+ incubated with brush-border membrane was confirmed. The increased uptake of 32Pi which was demonstrated in brush-border membrane equilibrated with Pi was not measured when intravesicular Pi was generated from a concentration of NAD+ which effected ADP-ribosylation of brush border membranes (100 μM NAD+). In contrast, increased uptake of 32Pi was demonstrated when intravesicular Pi was generated from 1 μM NAD+ which did not effect ADP ribosylation. Mg2+-dependent ADP ribosylation of brush-border membrane incubated with NAD+ was demonstrated which persisted during the time interval of 32Pi uptake measurements. Our findings are compatible with the hypothesis that NAD+-induced ADP ribosylation of brush-border membrane protein(s) results in inhibition of Pi transport across the membrane in vivo. EDTA may act to prevent this inhibition in brush-border membrane by chelation of Mg2+ and decreased ADP ribosylation. 相似文献

d-Glucose decreases phosphate reabsorption in rat proximal tubule. It is also postulated that some amino acids interact with phosphate reabsorption. To investigate the mechanism of these interactions, phosphate, d-glucose and l-alanine transport kinetics were measured in brush border membrane vesicles isolated from superficial rat kidney cortex by the calcium precipitation technique. At pH 7.4, Na+-dependent phosphate transport was inhibited in the presence of either d-glucose (39 mM) or l-alanine (2.4 mM). In this model, with d-glucose or with l-alanine the value of the phosphate uptake was decreased, whereas the apparent for the phosphate uptake was not affected. However, some inhibition of phosphate transport was observed in the presence of l-glucose, d-alanine or d-glucose after phlorizin preincubation. A 30% Na+-dependent l-alanine (0.1 mM) transport inhibition was observed in the presence of 5 mM phosphate. d-Glucose (1 mM) was also inhibited by 20% when 5 mM phosphate was added to incubation medium. According to several authors, in our model, d-glucose decreased the l-alanine transport and vice versa. Moreover, when the membrane potential was abolished, a clear inhibition of d-glucose by l-alanine persisted. These multiple interactions could be explained by the accelerated dissipation of the Na+ gradient insofar as the rate of the Na+ uptake was increased with d-glucose, l-alanine or phosphate and since the absence of variations in membrane potential did not suppress these inhibitions. 相似文献

The properties of carnitine transport were studied in rat kidney cortex slices. Tissue: medium concentration gradients of 7.9 for L-[methyl-14C]carnitine were attained after 60-min incubation at 37°C in 40 μM substrate. L- and D-carnitine uptake showed saturability. The concentration curves appeared to consist of (1) a high-affinity component, and (2) a lower affinity site. When corrected for the latter components, the estimated Km for L-carnitine was 90 μM and per ml intracellular fluid; for D-carnitine, and per ml intracellular fluid. The system was stereospecific for L-carnitine. The uptake of L-carnitine was inhibited by (1) D-carnitine, γ-butyrobetaine, and (2) acetyl-L-carnitine. γ-Butyrobetaine and acetyl-L-carnitine were competitive inhibitors of L-carnitine uptake. Carnitine transport was not significantly reduced by choline, betaine, lysine or γ-aminobutyric acid. Carnitine uptake was inhibited by 2,4-dinitrophenol, carbonyl cyanide , N2 atmosphere, KCN, , low temperature (4°C) and ouabain. Complete replacement of Na+ in the medium by Li+ reduced L- and D-carnitine uptake by 75 and 60%, respectively. Complete replacement of K+ or Ca2+ in the medium also significantly reduces carnitine uptake. Two roles for the carnitine transport system in kidney are proposed: (1) a renal tubule reabsorption system for the steady-state maintenance of plasma carnitine; and (2) maintenance of normal carnitine levels in kidney cells, which is required for fatty acid oxidation. 相似文献

The role of extracellular Pi and transmembrane fluxes across the sarcolemma in the regulation of cellular respiration was studied in isolated Langendorff-perfused rat hearts. Extracellular phosphate did not significantly affect the oxygen consumption or cellular phosphorylation potential of the myocardium. K+-induced arrest was used to change the mechanical work load of the heart. Arresting the heart caused a rapid decrease in the unidirectional efflux of phosphate determined by in vitro prelabelling of the intracellular phosphate compounds with 32P and determining the specific radioactivity of the γ-P of ATP, and the label appearance into the perfusion medium. At normal or elevated perfusate phosphate concentration there was a fairly slow net uptake of phosphate. The decrease in phosphate fluxes upon the K+-induced arrest was probably not due to a decrease in the transmembrane Na+ or K+ gradients because a further increase in the perfusate K+ concentration caused an increase in the K+ efflux to the levels observed in contracting hearts. The use of higher than normal concentrations of phosphate necessitated a lowering of the extracellular Ca2+ concentration, which caused a diminution of the oxygen consumption, accompanied by mitochondrial flavoprotein oxidation in the heart. This finding suggested that the extracellular Ca2+ concentration may be involved in the substrate level regulation of mitochondrial metabolism. 相似文献

Metabolic acidosis produces a phosphaturia which is independent of parathyroid hormone or dietary phosphorus intake. To study the underlying mechanism, inorganic phosphate (Pi) and glucose transport were studied in brush-border membrane vesicles prepared from the renal cortex of parathyroidectomized rats gavaged for three days with either 7.5 ml of 1.6% NaCl (control) or 1.5% NH4Cl (acidosis). At killing, blood pH and plasma bicarbonate were and , respectively, in control and () and () in acidotic rats. Serum Pi was similar in both groups, while 24 h urine Pi excretion was higher in the acidotic group (). Peak sodium-dependent uptake of Pi, measured after 1.5 min of incubation, was higher in controls than acidotic rats ( vs. protein, ), whereas peak glucose uptake at 1.5 min was not significantly different between the groups. Equilibrium values for Pi and glucose uptake were similar in the two groups. for Pi uptake in the control and acidotic animals were not different, 0.036 and 0.040 mM, respectively. By contrast, was higher in controls than in the acidotic group, 3.13 vs. 1.15 nmol/mg protein per 15 s. These results suggest that metabolic acidosis directly inhibits Pi uptake by the brush border of the proximal tubule by decreasing the availability of Pi carriers of the renal brush-border membrane. 相似文献

Expression and function of the oligopeptide transporter PepT1 in response to changes in environmental salinity have received little study despite the important role that dipeptides play in piscine nutrition. We cloned and sequenced two novel full-length cDNAs that encode Fundulus heteroclitus PepT1-type oligopeptide transporters, and examined their expression and functional properties in freshwater- and seawater-acclimated fish and in response to fasting and re-feeding. Phylogenetic analysis of vertebrate SLC15A1 sequences confirms the presence of two PepT1 isoforms, named SLC15A1a and SLC15A1b, in fish. Similar to other vertebrate SLC15A1s, these isoforms have 12 transmembrane domains, and amino acids essential for PepT1 function are conserved. Expression analysis revealed novel environment-specific expression of the SLC15A1 isoforms in F. heteroclitus, with only SLC15A1b expressed in seawater-acclimated fish, and both isoforms expressed in freshwater-acclimated fish. Fasting and re-feeding induced changes in the expression of SLC15A1a and SLC15A1b mRNA. Short-term fasting resulted in up-regulation of PepT1 mRNA levels, while prolonged fasting resulted in down-regulation. The resumption of feeding resulted in up-regulation of PepT1 above pre-fasted levels. Experiments using the in vitro gut sac technique suggest that the PepT1 isoforms differ in functional characteristics. An increased luminal pH resulted in decreased intestinal dipeptide transport in freshwater-acclimated fish but suggested an increased dipeptide transport in seawater-acclimated fish. Overall, this is the first evidence of multiple isoforms of PepT1 in fish whose expression is environmentally dependent and results in functional differences in intestinal dipeptide transport. 相似文献

(1) The effects of unconjugated bilirubin on the accumulation of p-aminohippurate, kinetics of p-aminohippurate uptake, the efflux of pre-accumulated p-aminohippurate and water and electrolyte distribution were investigated in the rat kidney cortical slice. (2) The addition of unconjugated bilirubin to the incubation medium decreased the 60 min slice-to-medium concentration ratio of p-aminohippurate. (3) The decrease in p-aminohippurate accumulation by unconjugated bilirubin was found to be more pronounced by increasing the concentration of pigment in the medium. (4) The rate of uptake of p-aminohippurate as a function of p-aminohippurate concentration differed in aerobiosis and anaerobiosis, and unconjugated bilirubin decreased only the uptake of p-aminohippurate in aerobic conditions. (5) The efflux of pre-accumulated p-aminohippurate decreased when unconjugated bilirubin concentration in the medium was low (10–20 μM) but the efflux increased when the concentration of pigment was much higher (100 μM). (6) The addition of unconjugated bilirubin to the medium (40–100 μM) increased intracellular sodium and total tissue water content, and decreased intracellular potassium and oxygen consumption of tissue. However the slices incubated with low concentration of pigment (20 μM) did not exhibit significative changes in cellular functional parameters. (7) These findings suggest that unconjugated bilirubin impairs p-aminohippurate transport by a complex mechanism that might involve binding of pigment to sites necessary for anion transport, although effects related to pigment toxicity or to its oxidative decomposition are not excluded. 相似文献

Interaction between angiotensin II (Ang II) and the fragment peptide 300-320 (fCT300-320) of the rat angiotensin II receptor AT1a was demonstrated by relaxation measurements, NOE effects, chemical shift variations, and CD measurements. The correlation times modulating dipolar interactions for the bound and free forms of Ang II were estimated by the ratio of the nonselective and single-selective longitudinal relaxation rates. The intermolecular NOEs observed in NOESY spectra between HN protons of 9Lys(fCT) and 6His(ang), 10Phe(fCT) and 8Phe(ang), HN proton of 3Tyr(fCT) and Halpha of 4Tyr(ang), 5Phe(fCT)Hdelta and Halpha of 4Tyr(ang) indicated that Ang II aromatic residues are directly involved in the interaction, as also verified by relaxation data. Some fCT300-320 backbone features were inferred by the CSI method and CD experiments revealing that the presence of Ang II enhances the existential probability of helical conformations in the fCT fragment. Restrained molecular dynamics using the simulated annealing protocol was performed with intermolecular NOEs as constraints, imposing an alpha-helix backbone structure to fCT300-320 fragment. In the built model, one strongly preferred interaction was found that allows intermolecular stacking between aromatic rings and forces the peptide to wrap around the 6Leu side chain of the receptor fragment. 相似文献

The relative roles of angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor (AT(1)R) and Ang II type 2 receptor (AT(2)R) in immune-mediated nephritis are unknown, and the effect of the blockade of AT(1)R and its indirect counter-activation of AT(2)R relative to the anti-fibrotic action in this disease is unclear. To address this question, we studied the role of AT(1)R and AT(2)R in anti-glomerular basement membrane nephritis in SJL mice. Groups of mice were treated with either an AT(1)R antagonist (CGP-48933; CGP group), an AT(2)R antagonist (PD-123319; PD group), both (CGP/PD group), or a vehicle (PCt group) from Day 29 to 56. At Day 56 post-treatment, fibrosis-related parameters such as interstitial matrix deposition, and the expression of genes of TGF-beta1, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, and type I collagen were significantly reduced in the kidney in the CGP group. There were no significant effects on these parameters in the PD group. However, this anti-fibrotic action by CGP-48933 was totally abolished by co-treatment with PD-123319 in the CGP/PD group. The gene expression of renin was significantly increased in the kidneys in the CGP and CGP/PD groups, suggesting that CGP-48933 had increased Ang II generation in those groups. In conclusion, counter-activation of AT(2)R by increased Ang II under AT(1)R blockade likely conferred an anti-fibrotic protection in this model. 相似文献

Reabsorption of amino acids is an important function of the renal proximal tubule. pH-dependent amino acid transport has been measured previously using rabbit renal brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMV). The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether this pH-dependent uptake represents H+/amino acid cotransport via a PAT1-like transport system. The rabbit PAT1 cDNA was isolated (2296bp including both 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions and poly(A) tail) and the open reading frame codes for a protein of 475 amino acids (92% identity to human PAT1). Rabbit PAT1 mRNA was found in all tissues investigated including kidney. When expressed heterologously in a mammalian cell line, rabbit PAT1 mediates pH-dependent, Na+-independent uptake of proline, glycine, l-alanine and α-(methylamino)isobutyric acid. Proline uptake was maximal at pH?5.0 (Km?2.2±0.7?mM). A transport system with identical characteristics (ion dependency, substrate specificity) was detected in rabbit renal BBMV where an overshoot was observed in the absence of Na+ but in the presence of an inwardly directed H+ gradient. In the presence of Na+ and under conditions in which PAT1 transport function was suppressed, a second proline uptake system was detected that exhibited functional characteristics similar to those of the IMINO system. The functional characteristics of rabbit PAT1 in either mammalian cells or renal BBMV suggest that PAT1 is the low-affinity transporter of proline, glycine and hydroxyproline believed to be defective in patients with iminoglycinuria. 相似文献

Consensus DNA sequences from human, mouse and/or rat were used to design oligonucleotide primers for equine homologues of exons 16, 17 and 20-23 of potassium chloride co-transporter (SLC12A4) and exons 10, 11 and 3, 4, respectively, for two amino acid transporters (SLC7A10 and SLC7A9). DNA sequences of the PCR products showed high sequence identity to these regions. Equine BAC clones were obtained for SLC12A4 and SLC7A10 and mapped to equine chromosomes ECA3p13 and ECA10p15, respectively, by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were found. Substitutions of A/G were found within exon 17 of SLC12A4, within intron 11 of SLC7A10 and within intron 3 of SLC7A9. The SNP associated with SLC7A10 and SLC7A9 were sufficiently polymorphic to investigate associations with erythrocyte fragility among a group of 20 thoroughbred horses. A non-parametric rank-sum test showed a weak association between erythrocyte fragility and the SNP associated with SLC7A10 (P < 0.05). 相似文献

The proteins from the ZIP and the CDF families of zinc transporters contain a histidine-rich sequence in a loop domain located between transmembrane domains III and IV for the ZIP family and transmembrane domains IV and V for the CDF family. Topological predictions suggest that these loops are located in the cytoplasm. The loops contain a histidine-rich sequence with a variable number of histidine residues depending on the transporter. The histidine-rich sequence was postulated to serve as an extra-membrane metal binding site in these proteins. hZip1 is a human zinc transporter ubiquitously expressed. The histidine-rich motif located in the large loop of this transporter is composed of the following sequence, H158WHD161. To determine if this motif is involved in the zinc transport activity of the protein, we performed site directed-mutagenesis to replace the loop histidines with alanines. Results suggest that both histidines are necessary for the zinc transport function and are not involved in the plasma membrane localization of the transporter as has been reported for the Zrt1 transporter in yeast. In addition, two histidine residues in transmembrane domains IV and V are also important in the zinc transport function. The results support an intermolecular exchange mechanism of zinc transport. 相似文献

We investigated whether angiotensin II (AII) peptide is induced in the rat kidney under endotoxemic conditions. Immunohistochemistry revealed strong AII-like immunoreactivity in the renal tubules of rats given high-dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 1000 microg/kg) intraperitoneally (i.p.). AII-like immunoreactivity in renal tubules was slight at 1h after the LPS injection, but marked at 3 h. There were few signals in the kidney in saline-injected control rats. When injected at 0.1, 10, or 1000 microg/kg i.p., LPS-induced a dose-related increase in AII-like immunoreactivity in renal tubules that was unaffected by treatment with the prostaglandin-synthesis blocker indomethacin. ELISA measurement of the AII concentration in the whole kidney supported the above findings. These results suggest that systemically administered LPS induces AII peptide expression in renal tubules by a prostaglandin-independent mechanism. 相似文献

The glutamine amino acid transporter solute carrier family 38 member 1 (SLC38A1) is associated with the occurrence and progression of solid tumors. However, it has not yet been assessed in patients with hematologic malignancy. Herein, we investigated SLC38A1 expression and explored its clinical implications in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The results showed that patients with high SLC38A1 expression had a lower mutation rate of NPM1 gene and higher incidence of adverse-risk karyotype (p = 0.0010 and 0.0051, respectively). Patients with a high level of SLC38A1 expression presented significantly shorter overall survival in whole-cohort, chemotherapy-only, and non-inv(16) AML (p = 0.0049, 0.0247, and 0.0005 respectively). Moreover, both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that high SLC38A1 expression was an independent unfavorable prognostic biomarker for AML (p = 0.0057 and 0.0483, respectively). In summary, our study revealed SLC38A1 as a valuable prognostic and predictive marker for AML. Further, glutamine transporter SLC38A1 might serve as a potential target for the development of novel therapeutic drugs in the treatment of AML. 相似文献

SLC19A2 and SLC19A3, also known as thiamine transporters (THTR) 1 and 2, respectively, transport the positively charged thiamine (vitamin B1) into cells to enable its efficient utilization. SLC19A2 and SLC19A3 are also known to transport structurally unrelated cationic drugs, such as metformin, but whether this charge selectivity extends to other molecules, such as pyridoxine (vitamin B6), is unknown. We tested this possibility using Madin-Darby canine kidney II (MDCKII) cells and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells for transfection experiments, and also using Caco-2 cells as human intestinal epithelial model cells. The stable expression of SLC19A2 and SLC19A3 in MDCKII cells (as well as their transient expression in HEK293 cells) led to a significant induction in pyridoxine uptake at pH 5.5 compared with control cells. The induced uptake was pH-dependent, favoring acidic conditions over neutral to basic conditions, and protonophore-sensitive. It was saturable as a function of pyridoxine concentration, with an apparent Km of 37.8 and 18.5 μm, for SLC19A2 and SLC19A3, respectively, and inhibited by the pyridoxine analogs pyridoxal and pyridoxamine as well as thiamine. We also found that silencing the endogenous SLC19A3, but not SLC19A2, of Caco-2 cells with gene-specific siRNAs lead to a significant reduction in carrier-mediated pyridoxine uptake. These results show that SLC19A2 and SLC19A3 are capable of recognizing/transporting pyridoxine, favoring acidic conditions for operation, and suggest a possible role for these transporters in pyridoxine transport mainly in tissues with an acidic environment like the small intestine, which has an acidic surface microclimate. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess whether endogenous Ang II and oxidative stress produced by acute hypertonic sodium overload may regulate the expression of aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) and aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) in the kidney. Groups of anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats were infused with isotonic saline solution (control) or with hypertonic saline solution (Na group, 1 M NaCl), either alone or with losartan (10 mg kg?1) or tempol (0.5 mg min?1 kg?1) during 2 h. Renal function parameters were measured. Groups of unanesthetized animals were injected intraperitoneally with hypertonic saline solution, with or without free access to water intake, Na+W, and Na?W, respectively. The expression of AQP-1, AQP-2, Ang II, eNOS, and NF-kB were evaluated in the kidney by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. AQP-2 distribution was assessed by immunofluorescence. Na group showed increased natriuresis and diuresis, and Ang II and NF-kB expression, but decreased eNOS expression. Losartan or tempol enhanced further the diuresis, and AQP-2 and eNOS expression, as well as decreased Ang II and NF-kB expression. Confocal immunofluorescence imaging revealed labeling of AQP-2 in the apical plasma membrane with less labeling in the intracellular vesicles than the apical membrane in kidney medullary collecting duct principal cells both in C and Na groups. Importantly, our data also show that losartan and tempol induces a predominantly accumulation of AQP-2 in intracellular vesicles. In unanesthetized rats, Na+W group presented increased diuresis, natriuresis, and AQP-2 expression (112?±?25 vs 64?±?16; *p?<?0.05). Water deprivation increased plasma sodium and diuresis but decreased AQP-2 (46?±?22 vs 112?±?25; §p?<?0.05) and eNOS expression in the kidney. This study is a novel demonstration that renal endogenous Ang II–oxidative stress, induced in vivo in hypernatremic rats by an acute sodium overload, regulates AQP-2 expression. 相似文献
