Abstract
The transportability of cytosine-containing nucleosides by recombinant hCNT1 was investigated in transfected mammalian cells. Apparent K(m) values for hCNT1-mediated transport of uridine, cytidine and deoxycytidine were, respectively, 59, 140 and 150 microM. Uridine transport was inhibited 89, 32 and 11%, respectively, by 500 microM gemcitabine, cytarabine and lamivudine, demonstrating that, unlike gemcitabine (a high-affinity hCNT1 permeant), cytarabine and lamivudine are poor hCNT1 permeants.Entities:
