Changes in cell volume and 42K+ efflux associated with concentrative alanine uptake were studied in isolated rat hepatocytes suspended in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer. After addition of 10 mM-alanine, cellular water volume increased by 15% and the rate constant of 42K+ efflux by 250%. Alanine-induced 42K+ efflux was abolished by quinine and was strongly decreased when the cell-volume increas...
We evaluated the contributions of Mycobacterium tuberculosis efflux pumps towards intrinsic resistance to different classes of peptidoglycan synthesis inhibitors (PSI). Our study indicates that the efflux pump knockout strains are more susceptible to PSI than the wild type. Vancomycin and ceftriaxone exhibited up to 3 log increased kill on efflux pump mutants compared to the wild-type strain, s...
In guinea-pig ileal longitudinal smooth muscle, both palytoxin (PTX) and carbachol (CCh) increased K+ efflux with an EC50 of 1.8 X 10(-10) M and 4.1 X 10(-7) M, respectively. Atropine (10(-6) M) did not inhibit the K+ efflux due to PTX (3 X 10(-9) M), but completely inhibited the efflux due to CCh (10(-5) M). External Ca2+ removal and verapamil (10(-5) M) did not change the PTX-induced K+ efflu...
Macrophages in the arterial intima take up modified LDL and become cholesterol-ester laden foam cells, which are the primary cell type in newly formed fatty streak lesions, and which play an important role throughout lesion progression and plaque vulnerability. Macrophages can unload their excess cellular cholesterol stores via lipid efflux, the first step in the protective reverse cholesterol ...
Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), the main protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), has many protective functions against atherosclerosis, one of them being cholesterol efflux capacity. Although cholesterol efflux capacity measurement is suggested to be a key biomarker for evaluating the risk of development of atherosclerosis, the assay has not been optimized till date. This study aims a...
OBJECTIVES Overexpression of efflux pumps in Acinetobacter baumannii is a common mechanism of multidrug resistance in this nosocomial pathogen. Increased efflux pump expression is often assumed from MICs of antibiotics and dyes, without measurement of efflux levels. This study describes a safe, rapid and simple 96-well plate assay that measures the accumulation of a fluorescent dye, Hoechst (H)...
We have developed a generalized profile that identifies members of the root-nodulation-cell-division (RND) family of efflux pumps and classifies them into four functional subfamilies. According to Z-score values, efflux pumps can be grouped by their metabolic function, thus making it possible to distinguish pumps involved in antibiotic resistance (group 1) from those involved in metal resistanc...
Amino acid efflux from highly purified rat liver lysosomes exposed to the methyl ester derivatives of leucine, methionine, tyrosine and cystine was examined. The lysosomal efflux of leucine, methionine and tyrosine was unaffected by the presence of MgATP, whereas cystine efflux was stimulated by MgATP. Exposure of lysosomes to 2 mM-MgATP resulted in lysosomal acidification and a 0.5 pH unit inc...
It is becoming increasingly accepted that removal of cellular cholesterol occurs by at least two pathways, one involving the well-described aqueous diffusion mechanism and another promoted by lipid-free apolipoproteins. We compared the contribution of apolipoprotein-dependent and -independent pathways, taking into consideration the influence of cellular metabolism, on cholesterol efflux promote...
Atypical antipsychotics such as clozapine and olanzapine have been shown to enhance histamine turnover and this effect has been hypothesized to contribute to their improved therapeutic profile compared to typical antipsychotics. In the present study, we examined the effects of antipsychotic drugs on histamine (HA) efflux in the mPFC of the rat by means of in vivo microdialysis and sought to dif...
