Cadmium induces nuclear translocation of β-catenin and increases expression of c-myc and Abcb1a in kidney proximal tubule cells
Cadmium (Cd2+) induces renal proximal tubular (PT) damage, including disruption of the E-cadherin/β-catenin complex of adherens junctions (AJs) and apoptosis. Yet, chronic Cd2+ exposure causes malignant transform...

Molecular characterization of the renal organic anion transporter 1
Organic anions of diverse chemical structures are secreted in renal proximal tubules. The first step in secretion, uptake of organic anions across the basolateral membrane of tubule cells, is mediated for the ...

Functional expression of renal organic anion transport in Xenopus laevis oocytes
Secretion of organic anions by the kidney plays a critical role in the elimination of toxic agents from the body. Recent findings in isolated membranes and intact tissue have demonstrated the participation of ...

Renal handling of taurine,l-alanine,l-glutamate andd-glucose inOpsanus tau: studies on isolated brush border membrane vesicles
Renal brush border membrane vesicles (bbmv) from the aglomerular toadfish (Opsanus tau), isolated by differential precipitation, were tested for their ability to actively translocate (i) taurine, known to be secr...
