项目摘要

Transfer machimery in the blood-tissue barriers were studied using isoform-specific antibodies. In barrieres made of a single epithelial or endothelial cell layrs, GLUT1 sugar transporter was localized at plasma membranes of both apical and basolateral domains of them. In barriers composed of double-epithelial cell layrs such as the epithelium of the ciliary body (blood-aqueous barriers) and the rat trophoblasts (placental barrier), GLUT1 was abundant at plasma membranes located at each side of the barrier layr. Two adjacent cell layrs were connected by numerous gap junctions of connexin 43 or connexin 26. Considering the location and abundance of transporters and connexin isoforms, I proposed the glucose transfer machinery in these double-cell barriers as follows : entry of glucose into the first barrier cell layr via GLUT1 ; transfer to the second barrier layr via connexin 43 (or 26) ; exit from the second barrier cell layr via GLUT1. These results suggest that transfer of substances with low-molecular weight is mediated with the combination of specific transporters (or channels) connexin isoforms and specific transporters (or channels) aligned in series. Molecular mechanism for specific localization of sugar transporter molecules was assessed by expressing GLUT1 and GLUT5 sugar transporter genes and their chimeras in cultured epithelial cells. Immunocytochemical analysis revealed that cytoplasmic loop domain plays an important role in determining their localization on the plasma membrane in polarized epithelial cells.

使用异构体特异性抗体研究了血液组织屏障中的转移机制。在由单个上皮细胞或内皮细胞层组成的屏障中，GLUT1糖转运蛋白位于其顶端和基底外侧区域的质膜上。在由双上皮细胞层组成的屏障中，例如睫状体上皮（血水屏障）和大鼠滋养层（胎盘屏障），GLUT1在位于屏障层两侧的质膜上丰富。两个相邻的细胞层通过连接蛋白 43 或连接蛋白 26 的众多间隙连接连接。考虑到转运蛋白和连接蛋白亚型的位置和丰度，我提出这些双细胞屏障中的葡萄糖转移机制如下：葡萄糖进入第一屏障通过 GLUT1 的细胞层；通过连接蛋白43（或26）转移至第二屏障层；通过 GLUT1 从第二屏障细胞层退出。这些结果表明，低分子量物质的转移是通过特定转运蛋白（或通道）连接蛋白亚型和串联排列的特定转运蛋白（或通道）的组合介导的。通过在培养的上皮细胞中表达 GLUT1 和 GLUT5 糖转运蛋白基因及其嵌合体来评估糖转运蛋白分子特异性定位的分子机制。免疫细胞化学分析表明，细胞质环结构域在确定其在极化上皮细胞质膜上的定位方面发挥着重要作用。
