Acidic amino acid transport characteristics of a newly developed conditionally immortalized rat type 2 astrocyte cell line (TR-AST).
To characterize acidic amino acid transport in type 2 astrocytes, we established conditionally immortalized rat astrocyte cell lines (TR-AST) from newly developed transgenic rats harboring temperature-sensitive SV40 large T-antigen gene. TR-AST exhibited positive immunostaining for anti-GFAP antibody and A2B5 antibody, characteristics associated with type 2 astrocytes, and expressed glutamine s...
متن کاملEffects of Bisphosphonates on Glucose Transport in a Conditionally Immortalized Rat Retinal Capillary Endothelial Cell Line (TR-iBRB Cells).
The objective of the present study was to elucidate the effect of bisphosphonates, anti-osteoporosis agents, on glucose uptake in retinal capillary endothelial cells under normal and high glucose conditions. The change of glucose uptake by pre-treatment of bisphosphonates at the inner blood-retinal barrier (iBRB) was determined by measuring cellular uptake of [(3)H]3-O-methyl glucose (3-OMG) us...
متن کاملDevelopment of a conditionally immortalized human pancreatic β cell line.
Diabetic patients exhibit a reduction in β cells, which secrete insulin to help regulate glucose homeostasis; however, little is known about the factors that regulate proliferation of these cells in human pancreas. Access to primary human β cells is limited and a challenge for both functional studies and drug discovery progress. We previously reported the generation of a human β cell line (Endo...
متن کاملA conditionally immortalized epithelial cell line for studies of intestinal drug transport.
A new cell culture model that better mimics the permeability of the human small intestine was developed for studies of passive drug transport. The intestinal epithelial cell line, 2/4/A1, conditionally immortalized with a temperature-sensitive mutant of the growth-promoting oncogene simian virus 40 (SV40) large T, was grown on permeable supports. The cells grew at 33 degrees C, where the oncoge...
متن کاملMorphological and functional characterization of a conditionally immortalized collecting tubule cell line.
A conditionally immortalized collecting tubule cell line, mCT1, was derived from the H-2Kb-ts A58 transgenic mouse (ImmortoMouse), which harbors a temperature-sensitive mutant of the SV40 large T antigen oncogene. Cells maintained under permissive conditions [33°C with interferon-γ (IFN-γ)] form epithelial monolayers, express large T antigen, and proliferate (>50 passages). The cells retain pro...
