Characterization of transport of positron emission tomography tracer 3′-deoxy-3′-fluorothymidine by nucleoside transporters
DownloadFall 2012
Positron emission tomography (PET) tracer 3′-fluoro-3′-deoxythymidine (FLT) is used for imaging tumor proliferation. Prior to this work, human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) was the only known human nucleoside transporter (hNT) capable of FLT transport. The aim of this research...

Human cells possess multiple nucleoside transporters (NTs) that belong to either the human equilibrative or concentrative NT (hENT: hENT1/2/3/4; hCNT: CNT1/2/3) families. In the kidney, coupling of apical hCNT3 activities to basolateral hENT1/2 activities is hypothesized to mediate renal...
