Drug transporters in spermatogenesis
Drug transporters are integral membrane proteins expressed by a variety of organs, including the liver, kidney, small intestine and testis, and they are generally known to mediate drug or xenobiotic transport into and out of cells. Previous studies have also reported the presence of several drug transporters at blood-tissue barriers where they are thought to protect organs from harmful agents. ...
متن کاملThe presence of xenobiotic transporters in rat placenta.
Understanding the role of transporters in placental handling of xenobiotics across the maternal-fetal interface is essential to evaluate the pharmacological and toxicological potential of therapeutic agents, drugs of abuse, and other xenobiotics to which the mother is exposed during pregnancy. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess mRNA levels of various transporters in placenta and...
متن کاملNorepinephrine Transporters in Rat Placenta Labeled with [H]Nisoxetine
Previous research has identified a norepinephrine (NE) transporter in brush-border membranes from human placental syncytiotrophoblastic cells. In the present study, we used the selective ligand [H]nisoxetine to demonstrate the presence of an NE transporter in rat placental membranes, determine the binding characteristics of the transporter and ascertain its localization by means of in vitro fil...

متن کاملCharacterization and identification of steroid sulfate transporters of human placenta.
Human trophoblasts depend on the supply of external precursors, such as dehydroepiandrosterone-3-sulfate (DHEA-S) and 16 alpha-OH-DHEA-S, for synthesis of estrogens. The aim of the present study was to characterize the uptake of DHEA-S by isolated mononucleated trophoblasts (MT) and to identify the involved transporter polypeptides. The kinetic analysis of DHEA-(35)S uptake by MT revealed a sat...
