  • Expression of nucleoside transporters and hydrogen peroxide-induced thymidine incorporation in astrocytes

抄録

<p>We have found that cultured differentiated astrocytes pretreated with N6, 2'-O-dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (DBcAMP), a permeable analogue of cAMP, incorporate thymidine, but not uridine, via nucleoside transporters into TCA insoluble fraction for repair on DNA injury in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at an early time, and these phenomena are specific in differentiated astrocytes, but not undifferentiated astrocytes and neurons.</p><p>We studied expression of nucleoside transporters in cultured astrocytes by RT-PCR, western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry. We could confirm CNT2, that is pyrimidine selective nucleoside transporter, CNT3, that is non-selective nucleoside transporter, ENT1, that is hypersensitive nucleoside transporter, and ENT2, that is low-sensitive nucleoside transporter, but not CNT1, that is purine selective nucleoside transporter and confirmed non-presence in brain, in cultured astrocytes. </p><p>These results indicate that H2O2-induced thymidine incorporation could pass through specific nucleoside transporters, existed in cultured astrocytes.</p>
