Inhibition by nucleosides of glucose-transport activity in human erythrocytes.
The interaction of nucleosides with the glucose carrier of human erythrocytes was examined by studying the effect of nucleosides on reversible cytochalasin B-binding activity and glucose transport. Adenosine, inosine and thymidine were more potent inhibitors of cytochalasin B binding to human erythrocyte membranes than was D-glucose [IC50 (concentration causing 50% inhibition) values of 10, 24,...
متن کاملTransport of glutathione-conjugates in human erythrocytes.
The last step of detoxification of both endogenous and environmental toxicants is typically a conjugation that produces a bulky hydrophilic molecule. The excretion of such conjugates out of cells is of sufficient biological importance to have led to the evolution of ATP-driven export pumps for this purpose. The substrate specificity of such transporters is broad, and in some cases it has been s...
متن کاملAcyclovir transport into human erythrocytes.
The mechanism of transport of the antiviral agent acyclovir (ACV) into human erythrocytes has been investigated. Initial velocities of ACV influx were determined with an "inhibitor-stop" assay that used papaverine to inhibit ACV influx rapidly and completely. ACV influx was nonconcentrative and appeared to be rate-saturable with a Km of 260 +/- 20 microM (n = 8). However, two lines of evidence ...
متن کاملVolume-sensitive K transport in human erythrocytes
Studies have been carried out on human erythrocytes to examine the alterations of K transport induced by swelling or shrinking the cells by osmotic and isosmotic methods. Hypotonic swelling of erythrocytes (relative cell volume, 1.20) resulted in a striking, four- to fivefold augmentation in the ouabain-resistant K influx over the value obtained at a normal cell volume. Shrinking the cells in h...
متن کاملHuman erythrocytes express GLUT5 and transport fructose.
Although erythrocytes readily metabolize fructose, it has not been known how this sugar gains entry to the red blood cell. We present evidence indicating that human erythrocytes express the fructose transporter GLUT5, which is the major means for transporting fructose into the cell. Immunoblotting and immunolocalization experiments identified the presence of GLUT1 and GLUT5 as the main facilita...
