A 75-kilodalton (kDa) protein was purified from solubilized renal brush border membranes by using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Functional and immunological properties identified the 75-kDa protein as a component of the Na+/glucose symport system. The purified protein was specifically recognized by a monoclonal antibody that functionally interacts with the Na+/glucose symporter. Na+-dependent phlorizin binding activity was associated with fractions containing the 75-kDa protein during HPLC fractionation on the anion exchanger Mono-Q and was greatly increased after reconstitution into egg yolk phosphatidylcholine vesicles. The final purified preparation contained glucosamine and a blocked N-terminus.

Male Wistar Rats Chronically Fed with a High-Fat Diet Develop Inflammatory and Ionic Transport Angiotensin-(3-4)-Sensitive Myocardial Lesions but Preserve Echocardiographic Parameters.

The central aim of this study was to investigate whether male Wistar rats chronically fed a high-fat diet (HFD) over 106 days present high levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and Na and Ca transport alterations in the left ventricle, together with dyslipidemia and decreased glucose tolerance, and to investigate the influence of Ang-(3-4). The rats became moderately overweight with an expansion of visceral adiposity. Na-transporting ATPases, sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA2a), and the abundance of Angiotensin II receptors were studied together with lipid and glycemic profiles from plasma and left-ventricle echocardiographic parameters fractional shortening (FS) and ejection fraction (EF).

Article Synopsis
- Glucose stimulates the release of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) from intestinal enteroendocrine cells (EECs), but the exact mechanisms behind this process are not fully understood.
- Researchers conducted experiments using STC-1 cells to study how calcium signaling, involving TRPV4 channels and Na/Ca exchanger 1 (NCX1), regulates glucose-induced GLP-1 release.
- Their findings suggest that the coupling of TRPV4 and NCX1 is crucial for this signaling process, highlighting its potential as a target for new treatments for glycometabolic diseases.

In the small intestine, sodium (Na) absorption occurs primarily via two apical transporters, Na-hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) and Na-glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1). The two primary Na-absorptive pathways were previously shown to compensatorily regulate each other in rabbit and rat intestinal epithelial cells. However, whether NHE3 and SGLT1 regulate one another in normal human enterocytes is unknown, mainly due to a lack of appropriate experimental models.
