Short term regulation of SGLT1 occurs post-transcriptionally in response to changes in luminal glucose. Adaptation to dietary carbohydrate involves long term regulation at the transcriptional level. The intracellular protein RS1 (gene RSC1A1) is involved in transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of SGLT1. RS1 contains an N-terminal domain with many putative phosphorylation sites. By Expressing SGLT1 in oocytes of Xenopus laevis it was previously demonstrated that the post-transcriptional down-regulation of SGLT1 by RS1 was dependent on the intracellular glucose concentration and activated by protein kinase C (PKC). The role of RS1 for short term regulation of SGLT1 in mouse small intestine in response to glucose and PKC was investigated comparing effects in RS1-/- mice and wildtype mice. Effects on SGLT1 activity were determined by measuring phlorizin inhibited uptake of α-methylglucoside (AMG). The involvement of RS1 in glucose dependent short term regulation could not be elucidated for technical reasons. However, evidence for RS1 independent short-term downregulation of SGLT1 after stimulation of PKC could be provided. It was shown that this downregulation includes decrease in the amount and/or in turnover of SGLT1 in the brush-border membrane as well as an increase of substrate affinity for AMG transport. Trying to elucidate the role of RS1 in long term regulation of SGLT1 in small intestine in response to glucose and fat content of the diet, wildtype and RS1-/- mice were kept for 2 months on a normo-caloric standard diet with high glucose and low fat content (ND), on a hyper-caloric glucose-galactose reduced diet with high fat content (GGRD) or on a hyper-caloric diet with a high fat and high glucose content (HFHGD). Thereafter the animals were starved overnight and SGLT1 mediated AMG uptake was measured. Independent of diet AMG uptake in ileum was smaller compared to duodenum and jejunum. In jejunum of wildtype and RS1-/- mice kept on the fat rich diets (GGRD and HFHGH) transport activity of SGLT1 was lower compared to mice kept on ND with low fat content. This result suggests an RS1 independent downregulation due to fat content of diet. Different to RS1-/- mice, the duodenum of wildtype mice showed transport activity of SGLT1 smaller in mice kept on glucose galactose reduced diet (GGRD) compared to the glucose galactose rich diets (ND and HFHGG). These data indicate that RS1 is involved in glucose dependent long term regulation in duodenum.}, subject = {Glucosetransportproteine}, language = {en} } @article{NeuhausBurekDjuzenovaetal.2012, author = {Neuhaus, Winfried and Burek, Malgorzata and Djuzenova, Cholpon C and Thal, Serge C and Koepsell, Hermann and Roewer, Norbert and F{\"o}rster, Carola Y}, title = {Addition of NMDA-receptor antagonist MK801 during oxygen/glucose deprivation moderately attenuates the up-regulation of glucose uptake after subsequent reoxygenation in brain endothelial cells}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-67241}, year = {2012}, abstract = {During stroke the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is damaged which can result in vasogenic brain edema and inflammation. The reduced blood supply leads to decreased delivery of oxygen and glucose to affected areas of the brain. Oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) can cause upregulation of glucose uptake of brain endothelial cells. In this letter, we investigated the influence of MK801, a non-competitive inhibitor of the NMDA-receptor, on the regulation of the glucose uptake and of the main glucose transporters glut1 and sglt1 in murine BBB cell line cerebEND during OGD. mRNA expression of glut1 was upregulated 68.7- fold after 6 h OGD, which was significantly reduced by 10 μM MK801 to 28.9-fold. Sglt1 mRNA expression decreased during OGD which was further reduced by MK801. Glucose uptake was significantly increased up to 907\% after 6 h OGD and was still higher (210\%) after the 20 h reoxygenation phase compared to normoxia. Ten micromolar MK801 during OGD was able to reduce upregulated glucose uptake after OGD and reoxygenation significantly. Presence of several NMDAR subunits was proven on the mRNA level in cerebEND cells. Furthermore, it was shown that NMDAR subunit NR1 was upregulated during OGD and that this was inhibitable by MK801. In conclusion, the addition of MK801 during the OGD phase reduced significantly the glucose uptake after the subsequent reoxygenation phase in brain endothelial cells.}, subject = {Blut-Hirn-Schranke}, language = {en} }
