Journal ArticleDOI

The stem cell marker Bcrp/ABCG2 enhances hypoxic cell survival through interactions with heme.

TL;DR: The studies demonstrate that the ABC transporter and marker of stem and progenitor cells known as the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP or ABCG2) confers a strong survival advantage under hypoxic conditions and suggest that cells can, upon hypoxic demand, use BCRP to reduce heme or porphyrin accumulation, which can be detrimental to cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of MRP2 as a targetable factor limiting oxaliplatin accumulation and response in gastrointestinal cancer.

TL;DR: Screening tumour MRP2 expression levels, to select patients for treatment with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy alone or in combination with a MRP1 inhibitor, could improve treatment outcomes and limit oxali platin accumulation and response in human gastrointestinal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

SGLT2 inhibitor lowers serum uric acid through alteration of uric acid transport activity in renal tubule by increased glycosuria

TL;DR: It was demonstrated that the UEUA could potentially be increased by luseogliflozin‐induced glycosuria, with alterations of UA transport activity because of urinary glucose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning of an Amino Acid Transporter with Functional Characteristics and Tissue Expression Pattern Identical to That of System A

TL;DR: The cloning and functional characterization of the protein responsible for the system A amino acid transport activity, designated ATA2 for amino acid transporter A2, was cloned from rat skeletal muscle, represents a significant step toward understanding the function and expression of this transporter in various physiological and pathological states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP/ABCG2): its role in multidrug resistance and regulation of its gene expression.

TL;DR: A synopsis of the impact of BCRP-mediated MDR in cancer cells, and the molecular mechanisms of acquired MDR currently postulated in a variety of human cancers are presented.
