ATP driven clathrin dependent entry of carbon nanospheres prefer cells with glucose receptors
BACKGROUND Intrinsically fluorescent glucose derived carbon nanospheres (CSP) efficiently enter mammalian cells and also cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). However, the mechanistic details of CSP entry inside mammalian cells and its specificity are not known. RESULTS In this report, the biochemical and cellular mechanism of CSP entry into the living cell have been investigated. By employing...
متن کاملMammalian Sugar Transporters
Glucose represents the major energy source of mammalian cells. Due to its hydrophilic nature, glucose requires specific transporters in order to cross cellular membranes. Such transport is, in the case of glucose and also other monosaccharides, mediated by energy-coupled as well as facilitative mechanisms represented by protein families of sodium-driven sugar cotransporters (SGLTs) and glucose ...
متن کاملTargeting of GLUT6 (formerly GLUT9) and GLUT8 in rat adipose cells.
The subcellular targeting of the two recently cloned novel mammalian glucose transporters, GLUT6 [previously referred to as GLUT9 [Doege, Bocianski, Joost and Schürmann (2000) Biochem. J. 350, 771-776] and GLUT8, was analysed by expression of haemagglutinin (HA)-epitope-tagged GLUTs in transiently transfected primary rat adipose cells. Similar to HA-GLUT4, both transporters, HA-GLUT6 and HA-GLU...
متن کاملThe Zinc Transporter, Slc39a7 (Zip7) Is Implicated in Glycaemic Control in Skeletal Muscle Cells
Dysfunctional zinc signaling is implicated in disease processes including cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease and diabetes. Of the twenty-four mammalian zinc transporters, ZIP7 has been identified as an important mediator of the 'zinc wave' and in cellular signaling. Utilizing siRNA targeting Zip7 mRNA we have identified that Zip7 regulates glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle cells. A...
متن کاملComparison of effects of green tea catechins on apicomplexan hexose transporters and mammalian orthologues
Here we have investigated the inhibitory properties of green tea catechins on the Plasmodium falciparum hexose transporter (PfHT), the Babesia bovis hexose transporter 1 (BboHT1) and the mammalian facilitative glucose transporters, GLUT1 and GLUT5, expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. (-)-Epicatechin-gallate (ECG) and (-)-epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) inhibited D-glucose transport by GLUT1 an...
