Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To evaluate cellular uptake and purine transport, we developed a high-performance liquid chromatography method for intra- and extracellular purine quantification. The developed HPLC method was successfully applied to the qualitative analysis of 22 different intra- and extracellular purines, demonstrating that it is useful for studying the overall pattern of purine metabolism. This method could also be useful for evaluating metabolic dynamics of purines under a variety of conditions stimulated to culture cells. We used the human colon carcinoma cell line (Caco-2) as a model system for intestinal epithelial permeability and the HepG2 cells for human hepatic cells. As a result of evaluating the risk of rising uric acid levels by food ingredients, the contribution of the purine metabolism was observed rather than the intestinal permeability of the purine.
