Left ventricular noncompaction cardiomyopathy and short QT syndrome due to primary carnitine deficiency

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2023
We report the case of a 13‐year‐old female patient presenting with presyncope and palpitations. Her electrocardiogram revealed an abbreviation of the rate‐corrected QT interval with imaging showing significant left ventricular dysfunction.

Fluorocholine Transport Mediated by the Organic Cation Transporter 2 (OCT2, SLC22A2): Implication for Imaging of Kidney Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesDrug Metabolism and Disposition, 2018
[18F]fluorocholine is the fluorinated analogue of [11C]choline and is used in positron emission tomography (PET) to monitor tumor metabolic activity. While important to optimize its use and expand the clinical indications, the molecular determinants of fluorocholine cellular uptake are poorly characterized.

Impact of Expression Levels of Platinum-uptake Transporters Copper Transporter 1 and Organic Cation Transporter 2 on Resistance to Anthracycline/Taxane-based Chemotherapy in Triple-negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesBreast Cancer: Basic and Clinical Research, 2015
Adding platinum drugs to anthracycline/taxane (ANC-Tax)-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) improves pathological complete response (pCR) rates in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Hydrogen Inhalation Protects against Ototoxicity Induced by Intravenous Cisplatin in the Guinea Pig

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Introduction: Permanent hearing loss and tinnitus as side-effects from treatment with the anticancer drug cisplatin is a clinical problem. Ototoxicity may be reduced by co-administration of an otoprotective agent, but the results in humans have so far ...

Comparison of "type I" and "type II" organic cation transport by organic cation transporters and organic anion-transporting polypeptides

open access: yes, 2001
Previous inhibition studies with taurocholate and cardiac glycosides suggested the presence of separate uptake systems for small "type I" (system1) and for bulky "type II" (system2) organic cations in rat hepatocytes.

Regulation of human hepatic drug transporter activity and expression by diesel exhaust particle extract.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are common environmental air pollutants primarily affecting the lung. DEPs or chemicals adsorbed on DEPs also exert extra-pulmonary effects, including alteration of hepatic drug detoxifying enzyme expression.

Loss-of-function polymorphisms in the organic cation transporter OCT1 are associated with reduced postoperative tramadol consumption.

open access: yes, 2016
The organic cation transporter OCT1 (SLC22A1) mediates uptake and metabolism of the active tramadol metabolite (+)O-desmethyltramadol in the liver. In this study, the influence of OCT1 genetic polymorphisms on pharmacokinetics and analgesic efficacy of ...

Paraquat neurotoxicity is mediated by the dopamine transporter and organic cation transporter-3

open access: yes, 2011
The herbicide paraquat (PQ) has increasingly been reported in epidemiological studies to enhance the risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD). Furthermore, case-control studies report that individuals with genetic variants in the dopamine

Effect of carnitine, acetyl-, and propionylcarnitine supplementation on the body carnitine pool, skeletal muscle composition, and physical performance in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Pharmacokinetics and effects on skeletal muscle and physical performance of oral acetylcarnitine and propionylcarnitine are not well characterized. We therefore investigated the influence of oral acetylcarnitine, propionylcarnitine, and carnitine on body
