Localization of human equilibrative nucleoside transporters, hENT1 and hENT2, in renal epithelial cells.
Nucleoside transporters are important in the disposition of nucleosides and nucleoside analogs in the kidney. Two human equilibrative nucleoside transporters have been cloned and characterized, hENT1 and hENT2. The primary goal of this study was to localize these transporters in polarized renal epithelia. hENT1 and hENT2 were tagged with green fluorescence protein, stably expressed in renal epi...
متن کاملLocalization of broadly selective equilibrative and concentrative nucleoside transporters, hENT1 and hCNT3, in human kidney.
Nucleoside transporters in kidney mediate renal reabsorption and secretion of nucleosides. Using RT-PCR, we demonstrated mRNAs encoding hENT1, hENT2, hCNT1, hCNT2, and hCNT3 in both cortex and medulla. Immunoblotting with crude membrane preparations revealed abundant hENT1 and hCNT3 in both cortex and medulla, and little, if any, hENT2, hCNT1, or hCNT2, indicating that the latter were either ab...
متن کاملNucleobase transport by human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1).
The human equilibrative nucleoside transporters hENT1 and hENT2 (each with 456 residues) are 40% identical in amino acid sequence and contain 11 putative transmembrane helices. Both transport purine and pyrimidine nucleosides and are distinguished functionally by a difference in sensitivity to inhibition by nanomolar concentrations of nitrobenzylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside (NBMPR), hENT1 bein...
متن کاملHuman equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) protein is associated with short survival in resected ampullary cancer.
BACKGROUND Gemcitabine is an acceptable alternative to best supportive care in the treatment of advanced biliary tract cancers. The human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) is a ubiquitous protein and is the major means by which gemcitabine enters human cells. Moreover, recent reports indicate a significant correlation between immunohistochemical variations of hENT1 in tumor samples...
متن کاملExpression and hepatobiliary transport characteristics of the concentrative and equilibrative nucleoside transporters in sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes.
We previously reported that both the concentrative (hCNT) and equilibrative (hENT) nucleoside transporters are expressed in the human liver (21). Here we report a study that investigated the expression of these transporters (transcripts and proteins) and their role in the hepatobiliary transport of nucleosides/nucleoside drugs using sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes. In the hepatic tissue, th...
