Description
SLC22A1/OCT1 is highly expressed in both human and rodent liver and is the major organic cationic transport protein responsible for hepatocellular organic cationic drug uptake. Therefore, SLC22A1/OCT1-mediated uptake into the liver is an essential step in the biotransformation of many pharmacological substances and nutrients. In vivo studies using Oct1-/- mice and clinical pharmacokinetic/ pharmacogenetic analyses have demonstrated that hepatic OCT1 is responsible for the therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of a biguanide agent, metformin. In addition, SLC22A1/OCT1 transports the organic cation choline, which is an essential step in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine via the Kennedy pathway. It was shown that PPAR-alpha and –gamma agonists transcriptionally increase SLC22A1/OCT1 gene expression, and the increased SLC22A1/OCT1 expression results in enhanced cellular organic cation uptake. Thus, there may be an implication for the uptake of organic cationic drugs and for lipid metabolism.3
