  • cDNA cloning of MCT2, a second monocarboxylate transporter expressed in different cells than MCT1. 7829520

    Low stringency screening of a cDNA library from hamster liver yielded a cDNA encoding MCT2, a monocarboxylate transporter that is 60% identical to hamster MCT1, the first monocarboxylate transporter to be isolated. The functional properties of the two MCTs were compared by expression in Sf9 insect cells using recombinant baculovirus vectors. Like MCT1, MCT2 transported pyruvate and lactate. The two transporters were sensitive to inhibition by phloretin and by alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate. MCT1, but not MCT2, was sensitive to organomercurial thiol reagents such as p-chloromercuribenzoic acid. Immunoblotting and immunofluorescence studies revealed a strikingly different tissue distribution of the two MCTs. MCT1 was present in erythrocytes and on the basolateral surfaces of intestinal epithelial cells. MCT2 was not detectable in these tissues, but it was abundant on the surface of hepatocytes. In the stomach, MCT1 was present on the basolateral surfaces of epithelial cells; in contrast, MCT2 was expressed on parietal cells of the oxyntic gland. In the kidney, MCT1 was present on the basolateral surfaces of epithelial cells in proximal tubules, whereas MCT2 was restricted to the collecting ducts. MCT1 was expressed on sperm heads in the testis and proximal epididymis. In the distal epididymis, it disappeared from sperm and appeared on the microvillar surface of the lining epithelium. In contrast, MCT2 was present on sperm tails throughout the epididymis and not on the epithelium. Both transporters were expressed in mitochondria-rich (oxidative) skeletal muscle fibers and cardiac myocytes. These findings suggest that MCT1 and MCT2 are adapted to play different roles in monocarboxylate transport in different cells of the body.

  • H3K9ac and HDAC2 Activity Are Involved in the Expression of Monocarboxylate Transporter 1 in Oligodendrocyte. 29184483

    Recently, it is reported that monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) plays crucial role in oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination. We found that MCT1 is strongly expressed in oligodendrocyte but weakly expressed in oligodendrocyte precursors (OPCs), and the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) activity is required for induction of oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation. We asked whether HDACs are involved in the regulation of MCT1 expression. This work revealed that the acetylation level of histone H3K9 (H3K9ac) was much higher in mct1 gene (Slc16a1) promoter in OPCs than that in oligodendrocyte. H3K9ac regulates MCT1 expression was confirmed by HDAC acetyltransferase inhibitors trichostatin A and curcumin. Of note, there was a negative correlation between H3K9ac and MCT1 expression in oligodendrocyte. Further, we found that the levels of HDAC1, 2, and 3 protein in oligodendrocyte were obviously higher than those in OPCs. However, specific knockdown of HDAC2 but not HDAC1 and HDAC3 significantly decreased the expression of MCT1 in oligodendrocyte. Conversely, overexpression of HDAC2 remarkably enhanced the expression of MCT1. The results imply that HDAC2 is involved in H3K9ac modification which regulates the expression of MCT1 during the development of oligodendrocyte.

  • Monocarboxylate transporters, blood lactate removal after supramaximal exercise, and fatigue indexes in humans. 15531559

    The present study investigated whether muscular monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) 1 and 4 contents are related to the blood lactate removal after supramaximal exercise, fatigue indexes measured during different supramaximal exercises, and muscle oxidative parameters in 15 humans with different training status. Lactate recovery curves were obtained after a 1-min all-out exercise. A biexponential time function was then used to determine the velocity constant of the slow phase (gamma(2)), which denoted the blood lactate removal ability. Fatigue indexes were calculated during 1-min all-out (FI(AO)) and repeated 10-s (FI(Sprint)) cycling sprints. Biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis muscle. MCT1 and MCT4 contents were quantified by Western blots, and maximal muscle oxidative capacity (V(max)) was evaluated with pyruvate + malate and glutamate + malate as substrates. The results showed that the blood lactate removal ability (i.e., gamma(2)) after a 1-min all-out test was significantly related to MCT1 content (r = 0.70, P less than 0.01) but not to MCT4 (r = 0.50, P greater than 0.05). However, greater MCT1 and MCT4 contents were negatively related with a reduction of blood lactate concentration at the end of 1-min all-out exercise (r = -0.56, and r = -0.61, P less than 0.05, respectively). Among skeletal muscle oxidative indexes, we only found a relationship between MCT1 and glutamate + malate V(max) (r = 0.63, P less than 0.05). Furthermore, MCT1 content, but not MCT4, was inversely related to FI(AO) (r = -0.54, P less than 0.05) and FI(Sprint) (r = -0.58, P less than 0.05). We concluded that skeletal muscle MCT1 expression was associated with the velocity constant of net blood lactate removal after a 1-min all-out test and with the fatigue indexes. It is proposed that MCT1 expression may be important for blood lactate removal after supramaximal exercise based on the existence of lactate shuttles and, in turn, in favor of a better tolerance to muscle fatigue.

  • cDNA cloning and functional characterization of rat intestinal monocarboxylate transporter. 8526936

    A cDNA clone which encodes a monocarboxylate transporter (ratMCT1) was isolated from a rat small intestinal cDNA library, which was screened by using full-length MCT1 cDNA of Chinese hamster ovary cells. The ratMCT1 cDNA was sequenced and predicted a protein of 494 amino acids with twelve potential transmembrane domains. The amino acid sequence showed 93.1% and 84.6% identity to the hamster and human monocarboxylate transporters, respectively. When expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, the ratMCT1 cRNA caused a significant increase in the uptake of radiolabeled lactic acid. Poly(A)+ RNA transcripts hybridizing to the ratMCT1 cDNA were detected in rat brain, heart, kidney, lung, muscle and brain capillaries. These results indicate that MCT1 contributes to pH-dependent and carrier-mediated transport of monocarboxylic acids in many tissues, not just in the small intestine.

  • Molecular characterization of a membrane transporter for lactate, pyruvate, and other monocarboxylates: implications for the Cori cycle. 8124722

    Lactate and pyruvate cross cell membranes via a monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) with well-defined properties but undefined molecular structure. We report the cloning of a cDNA encoding MCT1, a monocarboxylate transporter whose properties resemble those of the erythrocyte MCT, including proton symport, trans acceleration, and sensitivity to alpha-cyanocinnammates. A Phe to Cys substitution in MCT1 converts it to Mev, a mevalonate transporter. MCT1 is abundant in erythrocytes, cardiac muscle, and basolateral intestinal epithelium. In skeletal muscle it is restricted to mitochondria-rich myocytes. As sperm traverse the epididymis, MCT1 switches from sperm to epithelial cells. MCT1 is present at low levels in liver, suggesting another MCT in this tissue. By exporting lactate from intestine and erythrocytes, MCT1 participates in the Cori cycle. It also participates in novel pathways of monocarboxylate metabolism in muscle and sperm.

  • Lactate transport in canine red blood cells. 18672976

    OBJECTIVE: To detect monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) in canine RBC membranes and to determine the distribution of lactate between plasma and RBCs. SAMPLE POPULATION: Blood samples obtained from 6 purpose-bred Beagles. PROCEDURES: Monocarboxylate transporter isoforms 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8 and CD147 were evaluated in canine RBCs by use of western blot analysis. Lactate influx into RBCs was measured as incorporation of radioactive lactate. RESULTS: 2 MCT isoforms, MCT1 and MCT7, were detected in canine RBC membranes on western blot analysis, whereas anti-MCT2, anti-MCT4, anti-MCT6, and anti-MCT8 antibodies resulted in no signal. No correlation was found between the amount of MCT1 or MCT7 and lactate transport activity, but the ancillary protein CD147 that is needed for the activity of MCT1 had a positive linear correlation with the rate of lactate influx. The apparent Michael is constant for the lactate influx in canine RBCs was 8.8 +/- 0.9mM. Results of in vitro incubation studies revealed that at lactate concentrations of 5 to 15mM, equilibrium of lactate was rapidly obtained between plasma and RBCs. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These results indicated that at least half of the lactate transport in canine RBCs occurs via MCT1, whereas MCT7 may be responsible for the rest, although an additional transporter was not ruled out. For practical purposes, the rapid equilibration of lactate between plasma and RBCs indicated that blood lactate concentrations may be estimated from plasma lactate concentrations.

  • The monocarboxylate transporter inhibitor α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid disrupts rat lung branching. 24356196

    The human embryo develops in a hypoxic environment. In this way, cells have to rely on the glycolytic pathway for energy supply, leading to an intracellular accumulation of monocarboxylates such as lactate and pyruvate. These acids have an important role in cell metabolism and their rapid transport across the plasma membrane is crucial for the maintenance of intracellular pH homeostasis. This transport is mediated by a family of transporters, designated by monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), namely isoforms 1 and 4. MCT1/4 expression is regulated by the ancillary protein CD147.The general aim of this study was to characterize the expression pattern of MCT1/4, CD147 and the glucose transporter GLUT1 during human fetal lung development and elucidate the role of MCTs in lung development.The expression pattern of MCT1/4 and GLUT1 was characterized by immunohistochemistry and fetal lung viability and branching were evaluated by exposing rat fetal lung explants to CHC, an inhibitor of MCT activity.Our findings show that all the biomarkers are differently expressed during fetal lung development and that CHC appears to have an inhibitory effect on lung branching and viability, in a dose dependent way.We provide evidence for the role of MCTs in embryo lung development, however to prove the dependence of MCT activity further studies are waranted.

  • Monocarboxylate transporter genes in the mammary gland of lactating cows. 19636583

    This study is the first to examine the expression of the 14 monocarboxylate transporter genes (MCT1-MCT14) in the mammary gland of mammals. RT-PCR, Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence confocal laser microscopy were applied in a comprehensive approach to assess the expression and cellular localization of MCTs in the mammary gland of lactating cattle. RT-PCR revealed the existence of nine MCT isoforms, namely MCT1, MCT2, MCT3, MCT4, MCT5, MCT8, MCT10, MCT13, and MCT14 in cow mammary gland. The amplified cDNA segments were confirmed by sequence analysis and deposited in the GenBank. Using the commercially available antibodies against MCT1-MCT8, Western blotting verified the protein expression of MCT1, MCT2, MCT3, MCT4, MCT5, and MCT8 in the cow mammary gland. The precise cellular localization of the identified MCT proteins showed that both MCT1 and MCT2 were basolaterally localized on the cow mammary alveolar epithelial cells. In contrast, MCT4 protein signal was expressed on the apical membrane of these alveolar epithelia. MCT8, however, was predominantly localized on the basolateral membranes of the lactocytes, along with its weak labeling on the apical membrane of the same cells. No immunoreactive staining for MCT3 and MCT5 proteins could be detected histochemically in lactating bovine mammary tissue. Additionally, we proved the colocalization of CD147 with both MCT1 and MCT4 on the boundaries of the cow mammary alveolar epithelia. The existence and localization pattern of MCT genes in the mammary gland of lactating cows suggest their possible involvement in the transport of essential elements required for milk synthesis and secretion.

  • Expression and distribution of monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) in the gastrointestinal tract of calves. 15894023

    In the present study the expression and distribution of monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) along the gastrointestinal tract (rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum and colon) of calves were investigated on both mRNA and protein levels. The expression of MCT1 protein and its distribution were determined by Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining, respectively by using antibody for MCT1. MCT1 protein was visualized as a 43-kDa band on immunoblots of the membrane proteins prepared from the various regions examined, and it was more highly expressed in forestomach and large intestine than in abomasum and small intestine. With the use of reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, mRNA encoding for MCT1 was demonstrated in the different tissues examined. The immunohistochemical study confirmed the Western blot findings and showed strong MCT1 immunopositive staining in the stratified squamous epithelia of the forestomach as well as the epithelial cells lining the digestive tract in the cecum, proximal colon, and distal colon. The results suggest that MCT1 may play a role in the transport of SCFA and their metabolites in the gastrointestinal tract of bovines.

  • The prognostic value of CD147/EMMPRIN is associated with monocarboxylate transporter 1 co-expression in gastric cancer. 19628385

    The aim of the present work was to assess the role of monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), namely MCT1 and MCT4 as well as MCT/CD147 co-expression in gastric tissues and evaluate their clinico-pathological significance in gastric carcinoma. For that, we analysed the immunohistochemical expression of MCT1, MCT4 and CD147, in a large series of gastric samples, including non-neoplastic, tumour and metastatic tissues. A significant decrease in MCT4 plasma membrane expression was observed from non-neoplastic to gastric primary malignant tissues and to lymph-node metastasis and both MCT1 and MCT4 correlated with CD147. Importantly, both MCT4 and CD147 were more frequently expressed in Lauren's intestinal-type tumours and MCT1/CD147 co-expression was associated with advanced gastric carcinoma, Lauren's intestinal type, TNM staging and lymph-node metastasis. Our results showed that the prognostic value of CD147 was associated with MCT1 co-expression in gastric cancer cells, supporting the view that CD147 plasma membrane activity is dependent on MCT co-expression.
