Selective transport of monoamine neurotransmitters by human plasma membrane monoamine transporter and organic cation transporter 3.
The plasma membrane monoamine transporter (PMAT) and organic cation transporter 3 (OCT3) are the two most prominent low-affinity, high-capacity (i.e., uptake(2)) transporters for endogenous biogenic amines. Using the Flp-in system, we expressed human PMAT (hPMAT) and human OCT3 (hOCT3) at similar levels in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Parallel and detailed kinetics analysis revealed distin...
متن کاملMetformin transport by a newly cloned proton-stimulated organic cation transporter (plasma membrane monoamine transporter) expressed in human intestine.
Metformin is a widely used oral antihyperglycemic drug for the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus. The intestinal absorption of metformin is dose-dependent and involves an active, saturable uptake process. Metformin has been shown to be transported by the human organic cation transporters 1 and 2 (hOCT1-2). We recently cloned and characterized a novel proton-activated organic cation transpo...
متن کاملElectrophysiological characterization of the polyspecific organic cation transporter plasma membrane monoamine transporter.
Plasma membrane monoamine transporter (PMAT) is a polyspecific organic cation (OC) transporter that transports a variety of endogenous biogenic amines and xenobiotic cations. Previous radiotracer uptake studies showed that PMAT-mediated OC transport is sensitive to changes in membrane potential and extracellular pH, but the precise role of membrane potential and protons on PMAT-mediated OC tran...
متن کاملAdenosine transport by plasma membrane monoamine transporter: reinvestigation and comparison with organic cations.
The plasma membrane monoamine transporter (PMAT) belongs to the equilibrative nucleoside transporter family (solute carrier 29) and was alternatively named equilibrative nucleoside transporter 4. Previous studies from our laboratory characterized PMAT as a polyspecific organic cation transporter that minimally interacts with nucleosides. Recently, PMAT-mediated uptake of adenosine (a purine nuc...
متن کاملAgmatine is efficiently transported by non-neuronal monoamine transporters extraneuronal monoamine transporter (EMT) and organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2).
Agmatine has received considerable attention recently. Available evidence suggests that agmatine functions as a neurotransmitter and inhibits, via induction of antizyme, cellular proliferation. Because of its positive charge, agmatine will not appreciably cross cellular membranes by simple diffusion. Indeed, all physiological models require a channel or transporter protein in the plasma membran...
