  • Title: Nitrobenzylthioinosine-insensitive uridine transport in human lymphoblastoid and murine leukemia cells.
    Author: Belt JA.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1983 Jan 27; 110(2):417-23. PubMed ID: 6301452.
    Abstract:
    Both human lymphoblastoid (RPMI 6410) and murine leukemia (L1210) cells were found to have a component of uridine transport which is insensitive to the nucleoside transport inhibitor nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR). In both cell lines NBMPR-insensitive uridine transport is inhibited by other nucleosides and by the sulfhydryl reagent p-chloromercuribenzenesulfonate. In RPMI 6410 cells NBMPR-insensitive transport accounts for only 2% of the initial rate of uridine transport. In contrast, 20% of the initial rate of transport of L1210 cells is insensitive to NBMPR, and uridine uptake over longer periods (10 min) is completely insensitive to NBMPR.
