OST alpha-OST beta: a key membrane transporter of bile acids and conjugated steroids

Abstract: The organic solute and steroid transporter, Ost alpha-Ost beta, is an unusual heteromeric carrier that appears to play a central role in the transport of bile acids, conjugated steroids, and structurally-related molecules across the basolateral membrane of many epithelial cells. The transporter’s substrate specificity, transport mechanism, tissue distribution, subcellular localization, transcriptional regulation, as well as the phenotype of the recently characterized Ost alpha-deficient mice all strongly suppo… Show more

“…Current concepts assume mechanisms that would limit intracellular accumulation of potentially toxic bile salts under cholestatic conditions. 17,28,32 This includes down-regulation of Ntcp 33 or OATPs 34 at the basolateral membrane in order to limit bile salt uptake, or upregulation of Mrp4, 34 Mrp3, 35 and OSTa/b, 12 which may enhance bile salt secretion back into the systemic circulation. Bile salt inflow to the liver may increase considerably under pathophysiological conditions, but may also reach physiological concentrations of up to 150 lmol/L (in rat).…”

“…9 Furthermore, bile salt export back into the blood may also occur at the sinusoidal membrane and may be mediated by Mrp3 (ABCC3) and Mrp4 (ABCC4), two members of the ABC subfamily C, as well as the organic solute transporter OST a/b. [10][11][12] Rat Ntcp is an integral membrane glycoprotein with putative seven transmembrane domains. On a long-term scale bile salts down-regulate Ntcp at the level of gene transcription, which is mediated by the farnesoid-X-receptor (FXR) and the short heterodimer partner 1 (SHP1).…”

“…In reality, the pharmacokinetic-absorption-distribution-metabolism-excretiontoxicity (PK-ADME-TOX) profiles of individual BAs are complex and must be viewed in light of their EHR (Ballatori et al, 2009;Gonzalez, 2012), renal clearance, vectorial flux by multiple transporters, transport out of cells back into blood, 3-O-sulfation, glucuronidation, amidation, and the nuclear hormone receptor (NHR)-mediated "adaptive" responses of the liver, kidney, and intestine ( Fig. 2B; liver shown).…”

“…These include t-ASBT, multidrug resistance protein 3 (MRP3/ ABCB4), MRP4, organic anion transporting polypeptide 3 (Oatp3), and the organic solute transporter Ost alpha-Ost beta (25,28,36,119,158), the lattermost of which appears to play a central role in this process (25,28).…”
