Method for Testing of Drugs Belonging to Substrates and Inhibitors of the Transporter Protein BCRP on Caco-2 Cells

open access: yesРазработка и регистрация лекарственных средств, 2023
Introduction. Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is an efflux membrane transporter that controls the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs. Its activity may change when taking some endo- and exogenous substances, thus making it a link in drug ...

A fluorescently labelled quaternary ammonium compound (NBD-DDA) to study resistance mechanisms in bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are widely used as active agents in disinfectants, antiseptics, and preservatives. Despite being in use since the 1940s, there remain multiple open questions regarding their detailed mode-of-action and the mechanisms,

Cholesterol Efflux Assay [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2012
Cholesterol content of cells must be maintained within the very tight limits, too much or too little cholesterol in a cell results in disruption of cellular membranes, apoptosis and necrosis. Cells can source cholesterol from intracellular synthesis and from plasma lipoproteins, both sources are sufficient to fully satisfy cells' requirements for ...

Consideration of Metabolite Efflux in Radiolabelled Choline Kinetics

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Hypoxia is a complex microenvironmental condition known to regulate choline kinase α (CHKA) activity and choline transport through transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and, therefore, may confound the uptake of choline radiotracer ...

The MexJK Efflux Pump of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Requires OprM for Antibiotic Efflux but Not for Efflux of Triclosan [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2002
ABSTRACT Using the biocide triclosan as a selective agent, several triclosan-resistant mutants of a susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain were isolated. Cloning and characterization of a DNA fragment conferring triclosan resistance from one of these mutants revealed a hitherto uncharacterized efflux ...

Targeted cholesterol efflux [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2013
In the process of reverse cholesterol transport, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) transports excess cholesterol from peripheral cells back to the liver, where cholesterol is recycled or metabolized and excreted. On the cellular level, 2 membrane-associated ATP-binding cassette (ABC) cholesterol transporters, ABCA1 and ABCG1, play a major role in ...

Characterization of the Efflux Capability and Substrate Specificity of Aspergillus fumigatus PDR5-like ABC Transporters Expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesmBio, 2020
This research analyzed six Aspergillus fumigatus genes encoding putative efflux proteins for their roles as transporters. The A. fumigatus genes abcA, abcC, abcF, abcG, abcH, and abcI were cloned into plasmids and overexpressed in a Saccharomyces ...

Multidrug Efflux Pumps in Bacteria and Efflux Pump Inhibitors

open access: yesPostępy Mikrobiologii - Advancements of Microbiology, 2022
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance is becoming a paramount health concern nowadays. The increasing drug resistance in microbes is due to improper medications or over usage of drugs. Bacteria develop many mechanisms to extrude the antibiotics entering the cell. The most prominent are the efflux pumps (EPs).
