A Semi‐Quantitative Yeast Complementation Platform for Characterizing Urea and Ammonia Transport by Membrane Channels

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Yeast complementation assays provide a robust in vivo platform for characterizing the permeability and pH gating of transmembrane channels. This article details a liquid culture approach to quantify urea and ammonia transport using Saccharomyces cerevisiae deletion strains.

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1124-1144, February 2026.
Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

An Investigation of Autoantibodies against Tyrosine Hydroxylase in Patients with Vitiligo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Vitiligo is an acquired idiopathic hypomelanotic skin disorder characterised by depigmented macules due to loss of cutaneous melanocytes. Evidence suggests that autoimmunity plays a role in the pathogenesis of the disease, since antibodies and T cells ...

Targeting EZH2 reverses thyroid cell dedifferentiation and enhances iodide uptake in anaplastic thyroid cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 2, Page 215-225, January 2026.
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) lacks iodide uptake ability due to MAPK activation increasing the expression of the histone methyltransferase EZH2, which represses thyroid differentiation genes (TDGs) such as the sodium iodide symporter (NIS). Dual inhibition of MAPK (U0126) and EZH2 (EPZ6438/Tazemetostat) reverses this mechanism, thus restoring TDG ...

Astatine‐211—Towards In Vivo Stable Astatine‐211 Labeled Radiopharmaceuticals and Their (Pre)Clinical Applications

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 203-237, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Targeted radioligand therapy has emerged as a promising treatment option for eradicating advanced cancer forms. α‐Emitters are considered particularly promising as they can obliterate (micro)‐metastases. The α‐emitter astatine‐211 (211At) has experienced increased interest due to its favorable decay properties.

Navigating Solute Carrier Transporters—A Comprehensive Review of Functionalized Small Molecule Probes for Target Identification and Characterization

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 238-271, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Solute carrier transporters (SLCs) are integral membrane proteins that play pivotal roles in maintaining cellular homeostasis by mediating the transport of a diverse range of substrates across cell membranes. With their involvement in fundamental physiological processes such as nutrient uptake, neurotransmitter signaling, and drug transport ...

Identification and Characterization of a Novel Biallelic SLC12A2 Variant Associated With Kilquist Syndrome (OMIM #619080)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 197, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study presents the case of a child with multiple congenital anomalies, severe hypotonia, and profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Functional bioenergetic assessments showed no significant mitochondrial respiratory defects, and riboflavin (Rf) status evaluation excluded a deficiency in Rf transporters as a cause of hearing loss ...
