抄録

We have isolated a novel liver-specific organic anion transporter, LST-1, that is expressed exclusively in the human, rat and mouse liver. LST-1 is a new gene family located between the organic anion transporter family and prostaglandin transporter. LST-1 transport taurocholate (Km; 13.6μM) in a sodium- independent manner. LST-1 also shows broad substrate specificity. It transports conjugated steroids (dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, estradiol-17β-glucuronide and estrone-3-sulfate), eicosanoids (prostaglandin E2, thromboxane B2, leukotriene C4, leukotriene E4), and thyroid hormones, reflecting hepatic multispecificity. LST-1 is probably the most important transporter in the human liver for clearance of bile acids and organic anions since hepatic levels of another organic anion transporter, OATP is very low. We have also isolated rat counter part, rlst-1. rlst-1 is excusively expressed in the liver and in both the bile duct ligation model and the cecum ligation and puncture model, the mRNA expression levels of rlst-1 were downregulate, suggesting rlst-1 may be under feedback regulation of cholestasis by biliary obstruction and/or sepsis.
