Physiological and Putative Organic Cation Transporter Expression Response to Alizarin Dye Exposure in Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes [PDF]
There remains an urgent need for knowledge regarding the molecular and genetic mechanisms in Aedes aegypti to support the fight against mosquito-borne illness, one of these areas being xenobiotic transport.

Structural and biochemical comparison of the FLVCR and CTL membrane protein families in eukaryotes [PDF]
Structure–function analysis supports that the FLVCR membrane protein family acts as choline transporters, whereas a nontransport role is suggested for the CTL membrane protein family, previously proposed to be choline transporters.

Interactions of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with Organic Cation Transporters and Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion Proteins [PDF]
Abstract The drug–drug interaction (DDI) potential of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) as interacting drugs via transporter inhibition has not been fully assessed. Here, we estimated the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values for 8 small-molecule TKIs (imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, sunitinib ...

Background In Arabidopsis six genes group into the gene family of the organic cation transporters (OCTs). In animals the members of the OCT-family are mostly characterized as polyspecific transporters involved in the homeostasis of solutes, the transport

Organic Cation Transporters in Human Physiology, Pharmacology, and Toxicology [PDF]
Individual cells and epithelia control the chemical exchange with the surrounding environment by the fine-tuned expression, localization, and function of an array of transmembrane proteins that dictate the selective permeability of the lipid bilayer to ...

Inhibitory Effects of Green Tea and (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate on Transport by OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, MATE2-K and P-Glycoprotein. [PDF]
Green tea catechins inhibit the function of organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) that mediate the uptake of a diverse group of drugs and endogenous compounds into cells.

Developmental Changes in Hepatic Organic Cation Transporter OCT1 Protein Expression from Neonates to Children [PDF]
Organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) plays an important role in the disposition of clinically important drugs, and the capacity of OCT1 activity is presumed to be proportional to the protein expression level in organ tissues. Knowledge of OCT1 protein expression in children, especially neonates and small infants, is currently very limited.

Atypical Substrates of the Organic Cation Transporter 1
The human organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) is expressed in the liver and mediates hepatocellular uptake of organic cations. However, some studies have indicated that OCT1 could transport neutral or even anionic substrates.
