Disease relevance of SLC22A8

  • In this study, the mRNA levels of the organic ion transporters were quantified by real-time PCR in normal parts of renal tissues from seven nephrectomized patients with renal cell carcinoma, and the distributions and localization of human (h)OAT1, hOAT3, and hOCT2 proteins were investigated by immunohistochemical analyses in the human kidney [1].
  • CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the hOAT3 mRNA level is a significant marker of pharmacokinetics with which to predict the rate of elimination of cefazolin in patients with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis [2].
 

High impact information on SLC22A8

  • Stable isomers of 1-SMP, (2-SMP and 4-SMP) competitively inhibited the uptake of characteristic substrates p-aminohippurate for hOAT1 and estrone sulfate for hOAT3 [3].
  • Transactivation assays revealed that HNF1alpha and HNF1beta markedly increased hOAT3 promoter activity, where the transactivation potency of HNF1beta was lower than that of HNF1alpha [4].
  • It was also demonstrated that the promoter activity of hOAT3 is repressed by DNA methylation [4].
  • This suggests a synergistic action of the HNF1alpha/HNF1alpha homodimer or HNF1alpha/HNF1beta heterodimer and DNA demethylation for the constitutive expression of hOAT3 [4].
  • The minimal promoter of hOAT3 was identified to be located approximately 300 base pairs upstream of the transcriptional start site, where there are canonical TATA and hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF1) binding motifs, which are conserved in the rodent Oat3 genes [4].
 

Biological context of SLC22A8

 

Anatomical context of SLC22A8

  • When human OAT3 (hOAT3) and hOAT4 were expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, only hOAT3 showed [3H]cortisol uptake in excess of that of water-injected control oocytes [8].
  • Organic anion transporters, such as Oatp3 and Oat3, play a major role in the uptake of amphipathic and hydrophilic organic anions, respectively, at the brush border surface of the CPE, while the organic cation transporters, Oct2 and/or Oct3, have been suggested to be involved in the uptake of hydrophilic organic cations [9].
  • Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that hOAT1 and hOAT3 are expressed in the cytoplasmic membrane and cytoplasm of human choroid plexus [10].
  • In contrast, OAT3 abundance in both kidney cortex homogenates and in basolateral membranes increased by 3 days after the ligation [11].
  • The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the expression of human organic anion transporter 1 (hOAT1) and hOAT3 in the choroid plexus of the human brain and their interactions with neurotransmitter metabolites using stable cell lines [10].
 

Associations of SLC22A8 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of SLC22A8

  • Inhibition potency of probenecid for the uptake of fexofenadine was compared between hOAT3 and organic anion-transporting peptide 1B3 (hOATP1B3), a transporter responsible for the hepatic uptake of fexofenadine (Drug Metab Dispos 33:1477-1481, 2005) [13].
  • The half-maximal inhibitory concentrations of famotidine for [3H]estrone sulfate transport by hOAT3 and [14C]tetraethylammonium transport by hOCT2 (300 microM and 1.8 mM, respectively) were higher than those of cimetidine (53 and 67 microM, respectively) [15].
 

Other interactions of SLC22A8

  • RESULTS: Among 120 healthy individuals, 5 nonsynonymous variants and 1 nonsynonymous variant were observed in the OATP-C and OAT3 genes, respectively [16].
  • These parameters were comparable with those for hOAT1 and/or hOAT3 [12].
  • The apparent Km values for hOAT2-, hOAT3- and hOAT4-mediated tetracycline uptakes were 439.9 +/- 23.0, 566.2 +/- 28.4 and 122.7 +/- 16.0 microM, respectively [17].
  • The K(i) value of probenecid for hOAT3, but not for hOATP1B3, was significantly lower than the maximum unbound plasma concentration of probenecid at clinical dosages [13].
  • In conclusion, these data indicate that MTX treatment down-regulates expression levels of Mrp2, Oat1 and Oat3, and its effects are recovered by leucovorin [18].
