Comparison of expressed human and mouse sodium/iodide symporters reveals differences in transport properties and subcellular localization.

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2008
International audienceThe active transport of iodide from the bloodstream into thyroid follicular cells is mediated by the Na+/I- symporter (NIS). We studied mouse NIS (mNIS) and found that it catalyzes iodide transport into transfected cells more ...

Characterisation of the purified human sodium/iodide symporter reveals that the protein is mainly present in a dimeric form and permits the detailed study of a native C-terminal fragment.

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta, 2011
The sodium/iodide symporter is an intrinsic membrane protein that actively transports iodide into thyroid follicular cells. It is a key element in thyroid hormone biosynthesis and in the radiotherapy of thyroid tumours and their metastases. Sodium/iodide

Probing the Biological Plausibility of Fluoride as an Endocrine Disruptor. [PDF]

open access: yesBirth Defects Res
ABSTRACT Background Fluoride has come under recent scrutiny regarding concerns over potential neurodevelopmental and endocrine‐related toxicities, with recent reviews by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) concluding with moderate or reasonable confidence, respectively, that exposure to drinking water having ...

Molecular Traces of Gastric Cancer in Saliva: From Tissue Signatures to Salivary SLC5A5 as a Potential Biomarker. [PDF]

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterol J
ABSTRACT Background Early detection of gastric cancer (GC) and reliable risk stratification for metachronous gastric lesions (MGLs) remain societal and clinical challenges, particularly in intermediate risk populations. Non‐invasive approaches such as saliva‐based biomarkers could complement current strategies. The aim of this study was to identify and

Mesenchymal Stem Cell-mediated Image-guided Sodium Iodide Symporter (NIS) Gene Therapy Improves Survival of Glioblastoma-bearing Mice.

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2022
PURPOSE Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as cellular-based vehicles for the delivery of therapeutic genes in cancer therapy based on their inherent tumor homing capability.

The sodium iodide symporter (NIS) as theranostic gene: its emerging role in new imaging modalities and non-viral gene therapy

open access: yesEJNMMI Research, 2022
Cloning of the sodium iodide symporter (NIS) in 1996 has provided an opportunity to use NIS as a powerful theranostic transgene. Novel gene therapy strategies rely on image-guided selective NIS gene transfer in non-thyroidal tumors followed by ...

Dual EGFR- and TfR-targeted gene transfer for sodium iodide symporter gene therapy of glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2022
Sodium iodide symporter (NIS) gene transfer for active accumulation of iodide in tumor cells is a powerful theranostic strategy facilitating both diagnostic and therapeutic application of radioiodide.

Basolateral Sorting of the Sodium/Iodide Symporter Is Mediated by Adaptor Protein 1 Clathrin Adaptor Complexes

open access: yesThyroid, 2022
Background: The sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) is a transmembrane protein located on the basolateral membrane of thyrocytes. Despite its physiological and clinical relevance, little is known about the mechanisms that mediate NIS subcellular sorting.

Mechanisms of Sodium/Iodide Symporter-Mediated Mammary Gland Iodine Compensation during Lactation

open access: yesNutrients, 2022
This research aimed to investigate the compensation mechanism of iodine deficiency and excess in the mammary gland during lactation. Female rats were divided into the low iodine group (LI), the normal iodine group (NI), the 10-fold high iodine group ...

Transcription Factor CREB3L1 Regulates the Expression of the Sodium/Iodide Symporter (NIS) in Rat Thyroid Follicular Cells

open access: yesCells, 2022
The transcription factor CREB3L1 is expressed in a wide variety of tissues including cartilage, pancreas, and bone. It is located in the endoplasmic reticulum and upon stimulation is transported to the Golgi where is proteolytically cleaved.
