Research Abstract |
Human L-type amino acid transporter 1 (hLAT1), a component of system L, is expressed in a wide variety of organs. Its highest expression levels are in the brain, placenta, testis, bone marrow and fetal liver, followed by peripheral leukocytes, lymph nodes and the thymus. In a previous study, LAT1 was found to act as a system L transporter at the blood-brain barrier and tumor tissue. On the other hand, hLAT2, an isoform of hLATi, involves in the trans-cellular transport of neutral amino acids in epithelia blood-tissue barriers. Development of isoform-specific amino acid transporter agent is helpful about clarification of amino acid metabolic disease. We examined system-selectivity of 3-[^ (125) I]iodo-α-methyl-L-tyrosine (^<125>IMT), 4-[^<125>I]iodo-L-meta-tyrosine (4-[^<125>I]-mTyr) and 3-[^<125>I]iodo-L-tyrosine (3-[^<125>I]-Tyr) transport in Chinese hamster ovary cell K1 (CHO-K1) and those isoform-selectivity of the two human L-type amino acid transporters, hLAT1 and hLAT2 with human 4F2hc co-expressed Xenopus laevis oocytes. CHO-Klcell line studies have revealed that 4-[^<125>I]-mTyr exhibited the greatest system L specificity (93.46±0.13%) of all the amino acids tested, and therefore shows promise as a system-L-selective amino acid transport marker. [^<125>I]IMT, 4-[^<125>I]-mTyr and 3- [^<125>I] -Tyr transport was hLAT1-selective. Animal studies with these compounds are anticipated in further studies.
