The transport of the amphiphilic organic anion, p-aminohippurate (PAH), across the luminal (brush-border) and contraluminal (basolateral) membrane of renal proximal tubule cells was studied with membrane vesicles isolated from bovine kidney cortex. On the basis of the enrichment of specific activities of marker enzymes, leucine aminopeptidase and Na+/K(+)-ATPase, brush-border and basolateral membrane vesicles can be obtained from bovine kidneys in reasonably pure form. The uptake of [3H]PAH into both brush-border and basolateral membrane vesicles was trans-stimulated by intravesicular PAH and by 2-oxoglutarate. In the absence of Na+, [3H]PAH/2-oxoglutarate exchange was cis-inhibited by unlabelled 2-oxoglutarate in the medium. In the presence of an inward Na+ gradient, 10 microM 2-oxoglutarate, but no other Krebs cycle derivative, cis-stimulated [3H]PAH uptake, indicating that a Na(+)-coupled dicarboxylate transporter and PAH/2-oxoglutarate exchanger cooperate in both membranes to enhance [3H]PAH uptake. [3H]PAH uptake showed a non-saturable and a saturable component with similar apparent Km values in brush-border and basolateral membranes. Although one negatively charged PAH molecule exchanges with one doubly negatively charged 2-oxoglutarate molecule the exchange was electroneutral. Probenecid inhibited [3H]PAH/2-oxoglutarate exchange in brush-border and basolateral membrane vesicles with indistinguishable kinetics. We conclude that similar or identical PAH transporters are located in brush-border and basolateral membranes of bovine kidney proximal tubule cells. This arrangement seems species-specific since a Na+ gradient plus 2-oxoglutarate caused concentrative [3H]PAH uptake in brush-border membrane vesicles from bovine, but not from rat kidney.

Citrate metabolism in Leuconostoc mesenteroides subspecies mesenteroides is associated with the generation of a proton motive force by a secondary mechanism (C. Marty-Teysset, C. Posthuma, J. S. Lolkema, P. Schmitt, C. Divies, and W. N. Konings, J. Bacteriol. 178:2178-2185, 1996). The pathway consists of four steps: (i) uptake of citrate, (ii) splitting of citrate into acetate and oxaloacetate, (iii) pyruvate formation by decarboxylation of oxaloacetate, and (iv) reduction of pyruvate to lactate. Studies of citrate uptake and metabolism in resting cells of L. mesenteroides grown in the presence or absence of citrate show that the citrate transporter CitP and citrate lyase are constitutively expressed. On the other hand, oxaloacetate decarboxylase is under stringent control of the citrate in the medium and is not expressed in its absence, thereby blocking the pathway at the level of oxaloacetate. Under those conditions, the pathway is completely directed towards the formation of aspartate, which is formed from oxaloacetate by transaminase activity. The data indicate a role for citrate metabolism in amino acid biosynthesis. Internalized radiolabeled aspartate produced from citrate metabolism could be chased from the cells by addition of the amino acid precursors oxaloacetate, pyruvate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and alpha-ketoisocaproate to the cells, indicating a broad specificity of the transamination reaction. The alpha-ketocarboxylates are readily transported across the cytoplasmic membrane. alpha-Ketoglutarate uptake in resting cells of L. mesenteroides was dependent upon the presence of an energy source and was inhibited by inhibition of the proton motive force generating F(0)F(1) ATPase and by selective dissipation of the membrane potential and the transmembrane pH gradient. It is concluded that in L. mesenteroides alpha-ketoglutarate is transported via a secondary transporter that may be a general alpha-ketocarboxylate carrier.

Expression cloning in Xenopus laevis oocytes was used to isolate an organic anion transport protein from rat kidney. A cDNA library was constructed from size-fractionated poly(A)+ RNA and screened for probenecid-sensitive transport of p-aminohippurate (PAH). A 2, 227-base pair cDNA clone containing a 1,656-base pair open reading frame coding for a peptide 551 amino acids long was isolated and named ROAT1. ROAT1-mediated transport of 50 mu M [3H]PAH was independent of imposed changes in membrane potential. Transport was significantly inhibited at 4 degrees C, or upon incubation with other organic anions, but not by the organic cation tetraethylammonium, by the multidrug resistance ATPase inhibitor cyclosporin A, or by urate. External glutarate and alpha-ketoglutarate (1 mM), both counterions for basolateral PAH exchange, also inhibited transport, suggesting that ROAT1 is functionally similar to the basolateral PAH carrier. Consistent with this conclusion, PAH uptake was trans-stimulated in oocytes preloaded with glutarate, whereas the dicarboxylate methylsuccinate, which is not accepted by the basolateral exchanger, did not trans-stimulate. Finally, ROAT1-mediated PAH transport was saturable, with an estimated Km of 70 mu M. Each of these properties is identical to those previously described for the basolateral alpha-ketoglutarate/PAH exchanger in isolated membrane vesicles or intact renal tubules.

The effects of fusaric acid on hepatic energy metabolism were measured. Three experimental systems were employed: (a) Intact rat liver mitochondria; (b) freeze-thawing disrupted mitochondria; and (c) the isolated perfused rat liver. Fusaric acid affects mitochondrial energy metabolism by at least three modes of action: (1) Inhibition of succinate-dehydrogenase (in the 10(-3)-10(-2) M range); (2) inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation (in the 10(-5)-10(-4) M range); and (3) inhibition of alpha-ketoglutarate-dehydrogenase (in the 10(-5)-10(-4) M range). The inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation seems to be the result of a direct action on the ATP-synthase/ATPase without significant inhibition of the ATP/ADP exchange. In the isolated perfused rat liver, fusaric acid inhibits oxygen uptake and gluconeogenesis from pyruvate, the latter being strictly dependent on intramitochondrially generated ATP. The effects of fusaric acid on rat liver mitochondria are similar to those reported previously for maize root mitochondria. However, except for the action on succinate-dehydrogenase, rat liver mitochondria are approximately two orders of magnitude more sensitive than maize root mitochondria.

Kidney proximal tubule cells developed severe energy deficits during hypoxia/reoxygenation not attributable to cellular disruption, lack of purine precursors, the mitochondrial permeability transition, or loss of cytochrome c. Reoxygenated cells showed decreased respiration with complex I substrates, but minimal or no impairment with electron donors at complexes II and IV. This was accompanied by diminished mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)). The energy deficit, respiratory inhibition, and loss of DeltaPsi(m) were strongly ameliorated by provision of alpha-ketoglutarate plus aspartate (alphaKG/ASP) supplements during either hypoxia or only during reoxygenation. Measurements of (13)C-labeled metabolites in [3-(13)C]aspartate-treated cells indicated the operation of anaerobic pathways of alphaKG/ASP metabolism to generate ATP, yielding succinate as end product. Anaerobic metabolism of alphaKG/ASP also mitigated the loss of DeltaPsi(m) that occurred during hypoxia before reoxygenation. Rotenone, but not antimycin or oligomycin, prevented this effect, indicating that electron transport in complex I, rather than F(1)F(0)-ATPase activity, had been responsible for maintenance of DeltaPsi(m) by the substrates. Thus, tubule cells subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation can have persistent energy deficits associated with complex I dysfunction for substantial periods of time before onset of the mitochondrial permeability transition and/or loss of cytochrome c. The lesion can be prevented or reversed by citric acid cycle metabolites that anaerobically generate ATP by intramitochondrial substrate-level phosphorylation and maintain DeltaPsi(m) via electron transport in complex I. Utilization of these anaerobic pathways of mitochondrial energy metabolism known to be present in other mammalian tissues may provide strategies to limit mitochondrial dysfunction and allow cellular repair before the onset of irreversible injury by ischemia or hypoxia.

2-[(14)C]oxoglutarate uptake in resting cells of Staphylococcus aureus 17810S occurs via two kinetically different systems: (1) a secondary, electrogenic 2-oxoglutarate:H(+) symporter (K(m)=0.105 mM), energized by an electrochemical proton potential (Delta mu H(+)) that is generated by the oxidation of endogenous amino acids and sensitive to ionophores, and (2) a Delta mu H(+)-independent facilitated diffusion system (K(m)=1.31 mM). The 2-oxoglutarate transport system of S. aureus 17810S can be classified as a new member of the MHS (metabolite:H(+) symporter) family. This transporter takes up various dicarboxylic acids in the order of affinity: succinate = malate > fumarate > 2-oxoglutarate > glutamate. Energy conservation with 2-oxoglutarate was studied in starved cells of strain 17810S. Initial transport of 2-oxoglutarate in these cells is energized by Delta mu H(+) generated via hydrolysis of residual ATP. Subsequent oxidation of the accumulated 2-oxoglutarate generates Delta mu H(+) for further, autoenergized transport of this 2-oxoacid and also for Delta mu H(+)-linked resynthesis of ATP. In the cadmium-sensitive S. aureus 17810S, Cd(2+) accumulation strongly inhibits energy conservation with 2-oxoglutarate at the level of Delta mu H(+) generation, without direct blocking of the 2-oxoglutarate transport system or ATP synthase complex. In the cadmium-resistant S. aureus 17810R, Cd(2+) does not affect energy conservation due to its extrusion by the Cd(2+) efflux system (Cd(2+)-ATPase of P-type), which prevents Cd(2+) accumulation.

A mutant of Corynebacterim glutamicum ('Brevibacterium flayum') ATCC14067 with a reduced H+-ATPase activity, F172-8, was obtained as a spontaneous neomycin-resistant mutant. The ATPase activity of strain F172-8 was reduced to about 25% of that of the parental strain. Strain F172-8 was cultured in a glutamic-acid fermentation medium containing 100 g/l of glucose using ajar fermentor. It was found that glucose consumption per cell during the exponential phase was higher by 70% in the mutant than in the parent. The respiration rate per cell of the mutant also increased to twice as much as that of the parent. However, the growth rate of the mutant was lower than that of the parent. Under those conditions, the parent produced more than 40 g/l glutamic acid, while the mutant hardly produced any glutamic acid. Instead the mutant produced 24.6 g/l lactic acid as the main metabolite of glucose. Remarkably, the accumulation of pyruvate and pyruvate-family amino acids, i.e., alanine and valine, was detected in the mutant. On the other hand, the parent accumulated alpha-ketoglutaric acid and a glutamate-family amino acid, proline, as major by-products. It was concluded that the decrease in the H+-ATPase activity caused the above-mentioned metabolic changes in strain F172-8, because a revertant of strain F172-8, R2-1, with a H+-ATPase activity of 70% of that of strain ATCC14067, showed a fermentation profile similar to that of the parent. Sequence analyses of the atp operon genes of these strains identified one point mutation in the gamma subunit in strain F172-8.

The objective was to further test the hypothesis that aluminum (Al) citrate transport across the blood-brain barrier is mediated by a monocarboxylate transporter (MCT). Speciation calculations showed that Al citrates were the predominant Al species under the conditions employed. Al citrate did not inhibit lactate uptake and was not taken up by the rat erythrocyte, suggesting it does not serve as an effective substrate for either MCT1 or the anion exchanger. Studies were conducted with b.End5 cells derived from mouse brain endothelial cells to identify the properties of the carrier(s) mediating Al citrate transport. Western blot analysis of b.End5 cells showed expression of the transferrin receptor and MCT1, but not MCT2 or MCT4. Uptake of Al citrate was approximately 70% faster than citrate. Citrate and Al citrate uptake were sodium independent. Citrate uptake increased at pH 6.9 compared to 7.4, whereas Al citrate uptake did not. Al citrate uptake was reduced by inhibitors of mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation, suggesting ATP dependence, but not by ouabain, suggesting no role for Na/K-ATPase. Uptake was not affected by alpha-ketoglutarate or malonate, substrates for the dicarboxylate carrier. Many substrates and inhibitors of MCT1 and organic anion transporters reduced Al citrate uptake into b.End5 cells. BSP and fluorescein, organic anion transporter substrates/inhibitors, inhibited Al citrate uptake. We conclude that Al citrate transport across the blood-brain barrier is carrier-mediated, involving either an uncharacterized MCT isoform expressed in the brain such as MCT7 or MCT8 and/or one of the many members of the organic anion transporting protein family, some of which are known to be expressed at the blood-brain barrier.

A major system for net transepithelial secretion of a wide range of hydrophobic organic anions (OAs) exists in the proximal renal tubules of almost all vertebrates. This process involves transport into the cells against an electrochemical gradient at the basolateral membrane and movement from the cells into the lumen down an electrochemical gradient. Transport into the cells at the basolateral membrane, which is the dominant, rate-limiting step, is a tertiary active transport process, the final step which involves countertransport of the OA into the cells against its electrochemical gradient in exchange for alpha-ketoglutarate moving out of the cells down its electrochemical gradient. The outwardly directed gradient for alpha-ketoglutarate is maintained by metabolism ( approximately 40%) and by transport into the cells across both the basolateral and luminal membranes by separate sodium-dicarboxylate cotransporters ( approximately 60%). The inwardly directed sodium gradient driving alpha-ketoglutarate uptake is maintained by the basolateral Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, the primary energy-requiring transport step in the total tertiary process. The basolateral OA/alpha-ketoglutarate exchange process now appears to be physiologically regulated by several factors in mammalian tubules, including peptide hormones (e.g., bradykinin) and the autonomic nervous system acting via protein kinase C (PKC) pathways and epidermal growth factor (EGF) working via the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway.

To elucidate some of the subcellular and biochemical mechanisms of toxicity of metal-based antineoplastic drugs, mitochondria and cells were exposed to Casiopeinas), a new class of copper-based compounds with high antineoplastic activity. The rates of respiration and swelling, the H(+) gradient, and the activities of succinate (SDH) and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenases (2-OGDH) and ATPase were measured in mitochondria isolated from rat liver, kidney, heart, and hepatoma AS-30D. Also, oligomycin-sensitive respiration and ATP content in hepatoma AS-30D cells were determined. Casiopeinas) (CS) II-gly and III-i inhibited the rates of state 3 and uncoupled respiration in mitochondria. CS II was 10 times more potent than CS III. The sensitivity to CS II was 4-5-fold higher in mitochondria incubated with 2-OG than with succinate. Thus, at low concentrations (< or =10 nmol (mg protein)(-1); 10 microM), CS II disturbed mitochondrial functions only when 2-OG was present, due to a specific inhibition of 2-OGDH. At high concentrations (> or =15nmol (mg protein)(-1)), CS II-induced stimulation of basal respiration, followed by a strong inhibition, which correlated with K(+)-dependent swelling and cytochrome c release, respectively; K(+)-channel openers induce a similar mitochondrial response. Mitochondria from liver, kidney and hepatoma showed a similar sensitivity towards CS II, whereas heart mitochondria were more resistant. Oxidative phosphorylation and ATP content were also decreased in tumor cells by CS II. The data suggested that CS affected several different mitochondrial sites, bringing about inhibition of respiration and ATP synthesis, which could compromise energy-dependent processes such as cellular duplication.
