Journal ArticleDOI
LAT1 Is a Critical Transporter of Essential Amino Acids for Immune Reactions in Activated Human T Cells
TL;DR: It is shown that L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) is a major transporter for essential amino acids into activated human T cells and raises the possibility for application of an LAT1 inhibitor as a new drug for therapy of disease caused by exaggerated immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overexpression of the Runx3 transcription factor increases the proportion of mature thymocytes of the CD8 single-positive lineage.
Kazuyoshi Kohu,Takehito Sato,Shin Ichiro Ohno,Keitaro Hayashi,Ryuji Uchino,Natsuma Abe,Megumi Nakazato,Naomi Yoshida,Toshiaki Kikuchi,Yoichiro Iwakura,Yoshihiro Inoue,Toshio Watanabe,Sonoko Habu,Masanobu Satake +13 more
TL;DR: Runx3 overexpression can drive thymocytes to select the CD4−8+ lineage and this activity is likely to be due to more than a simple silencing of CD4 gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
c-Myc is crucial for the expression of LAT1 in MIA Paca-2 human pancreatic cancer cells.
TL;DR: It is shown that a proto-oncogene, c-Myc, is a critical positive regulator of LAT1 expression in MIA Paca-2 human pancreatic cancer cells, and molecular machinery that could explain why LAT1 is preferentially expressed in cancer cells is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel therapeutic approaches targeting L-type amino acid transporters for cancer treatment
Keitaro Hayashi,Naohiko Anzai +1 more
TL;DR: The functional significance of LAT1 in cancer and the potential therapeutic application of the features of Lat1 to cancer management are described in this review.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supak Yothaisong,Hasaya Dokduang,Naohiko Anzai,Keitaro Hayashi,Nisana Namwat,Puangrat Yongvanit,Sakkarn Sangkhamanon,Promsuk Jutabha,Hitoshi Endou,Watcharin Loilome +9 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that suppression of l-type amino acid transporter-1 activity using JPH203 might be used as a new therapeutic strategy for cholangiocarcinoma treatment.
