Effect of arsenic on neural tube in mouse embryo and relation to reduced folate carrier (RFC-1)
Arsenic is an important environmental toxicant which is usually found in drinking water in inorganic form. The hypothesis tested in this investigation is; arsenic exposure causes neural tube defects (NTDs) andthese defects of the central nervous system are more likely related to folate deficiency during fetal life. In this study, sodium arsenate was administered via intraperitoneal route at a r...
متن کاملRole of reduced folate carrier in intestinal folate uptake.
Studies from our laboratory and others have characterized different aspects of the intestinal folate uptake process and have shown that the reduced folate carrier (RFC) is expressed in the gut and plays a role in the uptake process. Little, however, is known about the actual contribution of the RFC system toward total folate uptake by the enterocytes. Addressing this issue in RFC knockout mice ...
متن کاملFolate receptor and human reduced folate carrier expression in HepG2 cell line exposed to fumonisin B1 and folate deficiency.
Fumonisin B1 (FB1) induces apoptosis and decreases the cellular uptake of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Two folate transporters (folate receptor, FR, and Reduced Folate Carrier, hRFC1) are involved in the cell uptake of folate. We aimed to study whether FB1 modifies the expression of the FR and the hRFC1 and whether its apoptotic effect is influenced by folate. Incubation of HepG2 cells with FB1 in...
متن کاملPost-hatching ontogeny of intestinal proton-coupled folate transporter and reduced folate carrier in broiler chickens.
Folate transporters, including the reduced folate carrier and the proton-coupled folate transporter, encoded by Slc19a1 and Slc46a1 genes respectively, play important roles in the transport of folate across biological membranes given the hydrophilic nature of folates. Although a number of studies have demonstrated that these two transporters are regulated ontogenetically in mammals, little data...
متن کاملEffect of glutamate carboxypeptidase II and reduced folate carrier polymorphisms on folate and total homocysteine concentrations in dialysis patients.
This study was designed to examine the effect of two single nucleotide polymorphisms in the reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1 80G>A) and the glutamate carboxypeptidase 2 (GCP2 1561C>T) gene on total homocysteine (tHcy) plasma level and folate status in 120 chronic dialysis patients. Red blood cell folate concentration was higher in patients with the GCP2 CT or TT genotype (ANOVA, P = 0.04). Among ...
