Abstract
The sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) is a glucose transporter that is located within the proximal tubule of the kidney's nephrons. While it is typically associated with the kidney, it was later identified in various areas of the central nervous system, including areas modulating cardiorespiratory regulation like blood pressure. In the kidney, SGLT2 functions by reabsorbing glucose from the nephron's tubule into the bloodstream. SGLT2 inhibitors are medications that hinder the function of SGLT2, thus preventing the absorption of glucose and allowing for its excretion through the urine. While SGLT2 inhibitors are not the first-line choice, they are given in conjunction with other pharmaceutical interventions to manage hyperglycemia in individuals with diabetes mellitus. SGLT2 inhibitors also have a surprising secondary effect of decreasing blood pressure independent of blood glucose levels. The implication of SGLT2 inhibitors in lowering blood pressure and its presence in the central nervous system brings to question the role of SGLT2 in the brain. Here, we evaluate and review the function of SGLT2, SGLT2 inhibitors, their role in blood pressure control, the future of SGLT2 inhibitors as antihypertensive agents, and the possible mechanisms of SGLT2 blood pressure control in the central nervous system.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Glycemic control is important in diabetes mellitus to minimize the progression of the disease and the risk of potentially devastating complications. Inhibition of the sodium-glucose cotransporter SGLT2 induces glucosuria and has been established as a new anti-hyperglycemic strategy. SGLT1 plays a distinct and complementing role to SGLT2 in glucose homeostasis and, therefore, SGLT1 inhibition may also have therapeutic potential. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on the physiology of SGLT1 in the small intestine and kidney and its pathophysiological role in diabetes. The therapeutic potential of SGLT1 inhibition, alone as well as in combination with SGLT2 inhibition, for anti-hyperglycemic therapy are discussed. Additionally, this review considers the effects on other SGLT1-expressing organs like the heart. EXPERT OPINION SGLT1 inhibition improves glucose homeostasis by reducing dietary glucose absorption in the intestine and by increasing the release of gastrointestinal incretins like glucagon-like peptide-1. SGLT1 inhibition has a small glucosuric effect in the normal kidney and this effect is increased in diabetes and during inhibition of SGLT2, which deliver more glucose to SGLT1 in late proximal tubule. In short-term studies, inhibition of SGLT1 and combined SGLT1/SGLT2 inhibition appeared to be safe. More data is needed on long-term safety and cardiovascular consequences of SGLT1 inhibition.

Abstract
Traditional treatments for type 1 and type 2 diabetes are often associated with side effects, including weight gain and hypoglycaemia that may offset the benefits of blood glucose lowering. The kidneys filter and reabsorb large amounts of glucose, and urine is almost free of glucose in normoglycaemia. The sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT)-2 in the early proximal tubule reabsorbs the majority of filtered glucose. Remaining glucose is reabsorbed by SGLT1 in the late proximal tubule. Diabetes enhances renal glucose reabsorption by increasing the tubular glucose load and the expression of SGLT2 (as shown in mice), which maintains hyperglycaemia. Inhibitors of SGLT2 enhance urinary glucose excretion and thereby lower blood glucose levels in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The load-dependent increase in SGLT1-mediated glucose reabsorption explains why SGLT2 inhibitors in normoglycaemic conditions enhance urinary glucose excretion to only ~50% of the filtered glucose. The role of SGLT1 in both renal and intestinal glucose reabsorption provides a rationale for the development of dual SGLT1/2 inhibitors. SGLT2 inhibitors lower blood glucose levels independent of insulin and induce pleiotropic actions that may be relevant in the context of lowering cardiovascular risk. Ongoing long-term clinical studies will determine whether SGLT2 inhibitors have a safety profile and exert cardiovascular benefits that are superior to traditional agents.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies have been isolated that specifically block the high affinity, Na(+)-dependent transport of choline in insect synaptosomes and synaptosomal ghosts. Antibodies were derived after immunization of mice with synaptosomal membranes from locust. Antibody VIB6F5, an IgG isotype, significantly inhibited the high affinity translocation of choline, the effect exhibited saturation at increased antibody concentrations. Antibodies recognized a 80 kDa antigen identified by Western blot analysis of synaptosomal membranes. In immunocytochemical approaches VIB6F5 specifically stained distinct areas in the neuropil of head and thoracic ganglia.

Abstract
There are two classes of glucose transporters involved in glucose homeostasis in the body, the facilitated transporters or uniporters (GLUTs) and the active transporters or symporters (SGLTs). The energy for active glucose transport is provided by the sodium gradient across the cell membrane, the Na(+) glucose cotransport hypothesis first proposed in 1960 by Crane. Since the cloning of SGLT1 in 1987, there have been advances in the genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and structure of SGLTs. There are 12 members of the human SGLT (SLC5) gene family, including cotransporters for sugars, anions, vitamins, and short-chain fatty acids. Here we give a personal review of these advances. The SGLTs belong to a structural class of membrane proteins from unrelated gene families of antiporters and Na(+) and H(+) symporters. This class shares a common atomic architecture and a common transport mechanism. SGLTs also function as water and urea channels, glucose sensors, and coupled-water and urea transporters. We also discuss the physiology and pathophysiology of SGLTs, e.g., glucose galactose malabsorption and familial renal glycosuria, and briefly report on targeting of SGLTs for new therapies for diabetes.

Abstract
Small bowel resection decreases brush border membrane (BBM) glucose uptake kinetics. Oral epidermal growth factor (EGF) returns net glucose transport across intact tissue to control levels despite persistence of a defect in BBM glucose uptake. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of resection and EGF treatment on sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT-1) expression in distal remnant tissue. New Zealand White rabbits (1 kg) underwent 70% small bowel resection (R). One group of resected animals (R-EGF) received oral EGF (40 microg/kg, days 3-8). Distal remnant tissue was harvested 10 d after surgery, and compared with controls (C). Mucosal SGLT-1 mRNA was measured by Northern blot, BBM SGLT-1 content by Western blot, and villus distribution of SGLT-1 protein and mRNA by immunofluorescence and in situ hybridization. Western blot indicated BBM from both resected and EGF-treated tissue had decreased SGLT-1 content (C, 0.55 +/- 0.04; R, 0.35 +/- 0.04; R-EGF, 0.35 +/- 0.03 trace OD; n = 5; p < 0.05). Northern blot revealed no alterations in mucosal SGLT-1 mRNA content in any group. SGLT-1 protein and mRNA localization in control tissues was characterized by a gradual increase in stain intensity from the base of the villus to the villus tip. Resection altered SGLT-1 protein and mRNA expression along the villus axis with intensity being strongest in the mid-villus region and little expression at the tip of the villus. Oral EGF normalized SGLT-1 protein and mRNA expression to control patterns. Resection alters SGLT-1 protein and mRNA expression along the villus axis, despite no change in total mucosal SGLT-1 mRNA content. EGF normalized villus SGLT-1 protein and mRNA distribution, without altering overall BBM SGLT-1 content or mucosal mRNA levels.

Abstract
Active transport of solutes into and out of cells proceeds via specialized transporters that utilize diverse energy-coupling mechanisms. Ion-coupled transporters link uphill solute transport to downhill electrochemical ion gradients. In mammals, these transporters are coupled to the co-transport of H+, Na+, Cl- and/or to the countertransport of K+ or OH-. By contrast, ATP-dependent transporters are directly energized by the hydrolysis of ATP. The development of expression cloning approaches to select cDNA clones solely based on their capacity to induce transport function in Xenopus oocytes has led to the cloning of several ion-coupled transporter cDNAs and revealed new insights into structural designs, energy-coupling mechanisms and physiological relevance of the transporter proteins. Different types of mammalian ion-coupled transporters are illustrated by discussing transporters isolated in our own laboratory such as the Na+/glucose co-transporters SGLT1 and SGLT2, the H(+)-coupled oligopeptide transporters PepT1 and PepT2, and the Na(+)- and K(+)-dependent neuronal and epithelial high affinity glutamate transporter EAAC1. Most mammalian ion-coupled organic solute transporters studied so far can be grouped into the following transporter families: (1) the predominantly Na(+)-coupled transporter family which includes the Na+/glucose co-transporters SGLT1, SGLT2, SGLT3 (SAAT-pSGLT2) and the inositol transporter SMIT, (2) the Na(+)- and Cl(-)-coupled transporter family which includes the neurotransmitter transporters of gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA), serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, glycine and proline as well as transporters of beta-amino acids, (3) the Na(+)- and K(+)-dependent glutamate/neurotransmitter family which includes the high affinity glutamate transporters EAAC1, GLT-1, GLAST, EAAT4 and the neutral amino acid transporters ASCT1 and SATT1 reminiscent of system ASC and (4) the H(+)-coupled oligopeptide transporter family which includes the intestinal H(+)-dependent oligopeptide transporter PepT1.

Abstract
Functional characterization of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport in intestine and kidney indicates the existence of heterogeneous Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport systems. Target size analysis of the transporting unit and model analysis of substrate binding have been performed and proteins have been cloned which mediate (SGLT1) and modulate (RS1) the expression of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport. The experiments support the hypothesis that functional Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport systems in mammals are composed of two SGLT1-type subunits and may contain one or two RS1-type proteins. SGLT1 contains up to twelve membrane-spanning alpha-helices, whereas RS1 is a hydrophilic extracellular protein which is anchored in the brush-border membrane by a hydrophobic alpha-helix at the C-terminus. SGLT1 alone is able to translocate glucose together with sodium; however, RS1 increases the Vmax of transport expressed by SGLT1. In addition, the biphasic glucose dependence of transport, which is typical for kidney and has been often observed in intestine, was only obtained after coexpression of SGLT1 and RS1.

Abstract
Immunodetection of solubilized kidney brush-border proteins on Western blots using antibodies against the 70 kDa phlorizin binding component of sodium-glucose cotransporter allows to identify an additional protein band with apparent molecular mass of 120 kDa in the presence of reducing agent dithiothreitol. Antibodies specifically eluted from the 70 kDa protein still recognize the 120 kDa protein on Western blot. The lack of dissociation of the 120 kDa protein from native brush borders or Triton X-100 extract in the presence of dithiothreitol can be improved by an extended incubation at 25 degrees C; this protein is full dissociated when purified by electroelution from polyacrylamide gel and gives two subunits with apparent molecular masses of 70 and 60 kDa by Coomassie staining and Western blot analysis. The effect of dithiothreitol on the renal brush-border membrane phlorizin binding is studied; a decrease in the number of high-affinity phlorizin binding sites without modification of the affinity to the binding molecule is observed. These data suggest that the high-affinity phlorizin binding moiety of sodium-glucose cotransporter exists in the kidney as a dimeric structure.

Abstract
We first present two simple dimeric models of cotransport that may account for all of the kinetics of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport published so far in the small intestine. Both the sigmoidicity in the Na+ activation of transport (positive cooperativity) and the upward deviations from linearity in the Eadie-Hofstee plots relative to glucose concentrations (negative cooperativity) can be rationalized within the concept of allosteric kinetic mechanisms corresponding to either of two models involving sequential or mixed concerted and sequential conformational changes. Such models also allow for 2 Na+: 1 S and 1 Na+: 1 S stoichiometries of cotransport at low and high substrate concentrations, respectively, and for partial inhibition by inhibitors or substrate analogues. Moreover, it is shown that the dimeric models may present physiological advantages over the seemingly admitted hypothesis of two different cotransporters in that tissue. We next address the reevaluation of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransport kinetics in rabbit intestinal brush border membrane vesicles using stable membrane preparations, a dynamic approach with the Fast Sampling Rapid Filtration Apparatus (FSRFA), and both nonlinear regression and statistical analyses. Under different conditions of temperatures, Na+ concentrations, and membrane potentials clamped using two different techniques, we demonstrate that our data can be fully accounted for by the presence of only one carrier in rabbit jejunal brush border membranes since transport kinetics relative to glucose concentrations satisfy simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Although supporting a monomeric structure of the cotransporter, such a conclusion would conflict with previous kinetic data and more recent studies implying a polymeric structure of the carrier protein. We thus consider a number of alternatives trying to reconcile the observation of Michaelis-Menten kinetics with allosteric mechanisms of cotransport associated with both positive and negative cooperativities for Na+ and glucose binding, respectively. Such models, implying energy storage and release steps through conformational changes associated with ligand binding to an allosteric protein, provide a rational hypothesis to understand the long-time debated question of energy transduction from the Na+ electrochemical gradient to the transporter.

Abstract
The glycosylation of the mature form of the rabbit intestinal Na+/glucose cotransporter was investigated by using both glycosidases and chemical treatment. The protein was identified on Western blots using polyclonal antibodies directed against peptide sequences from the cloned transporter as a Mr 68,000 polypeptide. The effect of these treatments on the size of the transporter is consistent with the major post-translational processing being a single N-linked glycosylation of either the tri- or tetra-antennary complex type. Either method of deglycosylation reduced the SDS-PAGE size by 11,000 to Mr 57,000. These results also suggest that O-linked glycosylation, if present, contributes little to the apparent size of the transporter. The relative size of the deglycosylated mature protein appears to be greater than that of the in vitro primary transcript (Mr 45,000), suggesting either a difference in a stable conformational state insensitive to reduction and denaturation by SDS or an additional post-translational modification. In addition, deglycosylation of the native transporter does not affect transport activity in brush border membrane vesicles. The transporter, an integral membrane protein having several membrane-spanning regions, has an anomalous mobility in SDS-PAGE as shown by Ferguson analysis. We estimate that the actual size of the mature Na+/glucose cotransporter is 86,000, and that N-linked glycosylation contributes about 15,000 to the mass.

Abstract
Polyclonal antibodies were raised to peptides selected from three different regions of the cloned rabbit intestinal Na+/glucose cotransporter. Western blot analysis was used to identify the fully mature protein in intestinal and renal brush borders. Two of the antibodies specifically identified a approximately 70-kDa protein band in rabbit intestinal brush borders but did not specifically immunoreact with membranes that do not have Na(+)-dependent glucose transport activity. The immunoreactive proteins had an apparent isoelectric point between pH 4.7 and 6.8. The antibodies also specifically recognized a similar-sized protein in human and seven other mammalian intestinal brush borders. Similar protein bands were identified in four mammalian renal brush-border membranes, indicating shared epitopes between intestinal and renal cotransport proteins. In some species, e.g., lamb and pig, the epitope for one antibody was missing in both intestinal and renal brush borders, suggesting that this epitope is not essential for function. These results suggest that 1) the cloned intestinal Na+/glucose cotransporter is that identified in earlier biochemical studies, 2) there is close structural similarity between intestinal and renal cotransporters, and 3) the structure of these proteins has been conserved during evolution.

Abstract
Antisera prepared in rabbit to a D-glucose-inhibitable phlorizin binding component of the pig kidney brush border membrane precipitated more than 90 percent of the D-glucose-inhibitable phlorizin binding activity from a Triton extract. These antibodies also stimulated D-glucose uptake by native brush border membranes at low D-glucose concentrations (1 mM) and inhibited it at higher D-glucose concentrations. Immunoblotting was used to locate polypeptide subunits of the glucose transporter in polyacrylamide gels of proteins extracted from the brush border membranes. The antibodies labelled the Mr 70,000 phlorizin-binding component in both reducing and non reducing conditions. Two additional polypeptides with relative molecular mass of 120,000 and 45,000 were also recognized under the same conditions; they might correspond, respectively, to another Na+/D-glucose cotransport unit and to a post mortem degradation product.

Abstract
Cell polarity is thought to be required for the efficient production of nascent blastocoele fluid, which begins at the 16-cell stage of mouse preimplantation development. In this study the 4-cell/16-cell blastomere heterokaryon was used to test the hypothesis that solute transport across the apical membrane domain induces the apical-basal axis of organelle distribution across polar 16-cell-stage blastomeres. Fusion of 4-cell/16-cell blastomere pairs resulted in a population of heterokaryons of which 65% were polar (contain an apical plasma membrane domain from a polar 16-cell-stage plasma membrane insert) and 30% were apolar (contain an apolar 16-cell-stage plasma membrane insert). Polar heterokaryons were distinguished from apolar ones by labeling their apical domains with fluorescent succinylated concanavalin A. In polar heterokaryons, both nuclei (labeled with Hoeschst 33242) were immediately subjacent to the apical plasma membrane domain, while in apolar heterokaryons both nuclei were located centrally. Two inhibitors of apical transmembrane solute transport--phlorizin, which inhibits brush border (apical) Na+/glucose symporters, and ouabain, which inhibits Na+/K+-ATPase, thereby modifying the transmembrane Na+ gradient--were examined for their effect on nuclear position in polar and apolar heterokaryons after a 4-hr incubation in either inhibitor. Both ouabain (L.M. Wiley, 1984, Dev. Biol. 105, 330-342) and phlorizin (this study) had a biphasic effect on the rate of nascent blastocoele fluid accumulation such that at lower concentrations (ouabain, 10(-5) M; phlorizin, 10(-6) M) fluid accumulation was accelerated and at higher concentrations (both inhibitors, 10(-4) M) fluid accumulation was delayed. In polar heterokaryons, both concentrations of each inhibitor caused the nuclei to become displaced basally from their normal location against the apical plasma membrane domain. Both nuclei, however, remained on the axis of polarity passing through the apical domain. The magnitude of displacement was greater at higher concentrations of either inhibitor. Neither inhibitor affected nuclear position in apolar heterokaryons. These observations agree with the hypothesis that apical plasma membrane solute transport maintains the asymmetric organelle distribution across the apical-basal axis of polar 16-cell-stage blastomeres.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies, which block the high-affinity uptake of choline in synaptosomal ghosts, have been used to purify a membrane polypeptide (80 kDa) from insect synaptosomal membranes. This isolated protein was found to catalyse the sodium-dependent, hemicholinium-sensitive accumulation of choline after reconstitution into liposomes, thus, apparently represents the high-affinity choline transporter.

Abstract
It was found that sodium ion-dependent glucose uptake by microvillous membrane (MVM) vesicles was partially inhibited by cytochalasin B with a half-maximum inhibition at ca. 10 microM. The MVM was photolabeled with [3]cytochalasin B. The Kd value and the maximum number of binding sites for cytochalasin B were ca. 8 microM and 70 pmol/mg protein, respectively. SDS-PAGE of the photolabeled MVM revealed 2 binding components. One was 86 K in Mr and the other 42 K. The binding of cytochalasin B to the 86 K component was affected neither by cytochalasin E nor by the presence of 0.5 M NaCl, but was depressed in the presence of 2-deoxy-D-glucose or phlorizin, which had no effect on the labeling of the 42 K component. These and other data suggested that the 86 K component might be responsible for a cytochalasin B-sensitive glucose transport in intestinal epithelial MVM.

Abstract
The small intestinal brush border membrane is endowed with a number of transport systems. Monoclonal antibodies were produced against integral membrane proteins and tested for their ability to bind to such membranes. For this purpose papain-digested, deoxycholate-extracted BBMVs from rabbit small intestine were used to immunize mice. Of the 765 hybridoma supernatants tested, 119 gave a significantly higher extent of binding to the crude antigen preparation as compared with the background. The monoclonal antibodies were also tested for their ability to influence the sodium-dependent uptake of solutes into intact BBMVs. Two monoclonal antibodies clearly showed stimulation of secondary active D-glucose transport, whereas sodium-dependent uptake of L-alanine and L-proline was not affected. Hydrophobically labeled, i.e. intrinsic, membrane proteins of 175, 78 and 65 kilodaltons could be immunoprecipitated by both monoclonal antibodies, the 78 kDa band corresponding in all likelihood to the Na+/glucose cotransporter.

Abstract
Phlorizin is a specific, high-affinity ligand that binds the active site of the Na+/glucose symporter by a Na+-dependent mechanism but is not itself transported across the membrane. We have isolated a panel of monoclonal antibodies that influence high-affinity, Na+-dependent phlorizin binding to pig renal brush border membranes. Antibodies were derived after immunization of mice either with highly purified renal brush border membranes or with apical membranes purified from LLC-PK1, a cell line of pig renal proximal tubule origin. Antibody 11A3D6, an IgG2b, reproducibly stimulated Na+-dependent phlorizin binding whereas antibody 18H10B12, an IgM, strongly inhibited specific binding. These effects were maximal after 30-min incubation and exhibited saturation at increased antibody concentrations. Antibodies did not affect Na+-dependent sugar uptake in vesicles but significantly prevented transport inhibition by bound phlorizin. Antibodies recognized a 75-kDa antigen identified by Western blot analysis of brush border membranes, and a 75-kDa membrane protein could be immunoprecipitated by 18H10B12. These properties, taken together with results in the following paper [Wu, J.-S.R., & Lever, J.E. (1987) Biochemistry (following paper in this issue)], provide compelling evidence that the 75-kDa antigen recognized by these antibodies is a component of the renal Na+/glucose symporter.

Abstract
Conformation-dependent fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeling of the pig renal Na+/glucose symporter was investigated with specific monoclonal antibodies (MAb's). When renal brush border membranes were pretreated with phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC), washed, and then treated at neutral pH with FITC in the presence of transporter substrates Na+ and glucose, most of the incorporated fluorescence was associated with a single peak after resolution by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The apparent molecular mass of the FITC-labeled species ranged from 79 to 92 kDa. Labeling of this peak was specifically reduced by 70% if Na+ and glucose were omitted. Na+ could not be replaced by K+, Rb+, or Li+. FITC labeling of this peak was also stimulated after incubation of membranes with MAb's known to influence high-affinity phlorizin binding, and stimulation was synergistically increased when MAb's were added in the presence of Na+ and glucose. Substrate-induced or MAb-induced labeling correlated with inactivation of Na+-dependent phlorizin binding. MAb's recognized an antigen of 75 kDa in the native membranes whereas substrate-induced FITC labeling was accompanied by loss of antigen recognition and protection from proteolysis. These findings are consistent with a model in which MAb's stabilize a Na+-induced active conformer of the Na+/glucose symport system.

Abstract
Gradient gel electrophoresis was performed under mild detergent conditions to separate pig kidney brush border membrane proteins and to identify the smallest functional molecular protein entity of the D-glucose transporter. The various protein bands obtained from the nondenaturing gel system in a semipreparative scale were eluted by electrodialysis. These proteins were then reintegrated into proteoliposomes and tested for D-glucose-inhibitable [3H]phlorizin binding. The D-glucose transporter had a molecular mass of 70 kDa in mild detergent electrophoresis conditions and in subsequent SDS analysis.

Abstract
The properties of the glucose-transport systems in rat adipocytes and hepatocytes were compared in cells prepared from the same animals. Hormones and other agents which cause a large stimulation of 3-O-methylglucose transport in adipocytes were without acute effect in hepatocytes. Hepatocytes displayed a lower affinity for 3-O-methylglucose (20 mM) and alternative substrates than adipocytes (6 mM), whereas inhibitor affinities were similar in both cell types. The concentration and distribution of glucose transporters were determined by Scatchard analysis of D-glucose-inhibitable [3H]cytochalasin B binding to subcellular fractions. In liver, most of the transporters were located in the plasma membrane (42 +/- 5 pmol/mg of protein) with a small amount (4 +/- 3 pmol/mg) in the low-density microsomal fraction ('microsomes'), the reverse of the situation in adipocytes. Glucose transporters were covalently labelled with [3H]cytochalasin B by using the photochemical cross-linking agent hydroxysuccinimidyl-4-azidobenzoate and analysed by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. A single D-glucose-inhibitable peak with a molecular mass of 40-50 kDa was seen in both plasma membrane and low-density microsomes. This peak was further characterized by isoelectric focusing and revealed a single peak of specific [3H]cytochalasin B binding at pI 6.05 in both low-density microsomes and plasma membrane, compared with peaks at pI 6.4 and 5.6 in adipocyte membranes. In summary: the glucose-transport system in hepatocytes has a lower affinity and higher capacity than that in adipocytes, and is also not accurately modulated by insulin; the subcellular distribution of glucose transporters in the liver suggests that few intracellular transporters would be available for translocation; the liver transporter has a molecular mass similar to that of the adipocyte transporter; the liver glucose transporter exists as a single charged form (pI 6.05), compared with the multiple forms in adipocytes. This difference in charge could reflect a functionally important difference in molecular structure between the two cell types.

Abstract
Secondary active transport is defined as the transport of a solute in the direction of its increasing electrochemical potential coupled to the facilitated diffusion of a second solute (usually an ion) in the direction of its decreasing electrochemical potential. The coupling agents are membrane proteins (carriers), each of which catalyzes simultaneously the facilitated diffusion of the driving ion and the active transport of a given solute. The review starts with some considerations on the energetics followed by a presentation of the kinetics of secondary active transport. Examples of information which may be gained by such studies are discussed. In the second part, some examples of secondary transport are given; we also describe the characteristics of the corresponding carriers. The various transport systems presented are: the D-glucose/Na+ symport in brush-border membranes, the lactose/H+ symport in E. coli, the Na+/H+ antiport, the different transport systems in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Abstract
Immunoblotting of plasma membrane fractions from rat kidney cortex with antibody to human erythrocyte glucose transporter showed a single major cross-reacting material of 48K in basolateral membrane fractions possessing a facilitated diffusion system for D-glucose, but not in brush border membrane fractions which have a Na-dependent active transport system. Cytochalasin B inhibited D-glucose uptake in basolateral membrane vesicles but not in brush border vesicles. Cross-reacting materials of 44-55K were detected in several animal cells exhibiting facilitated diffusion systems, including a hormone dependent system. These results indicate molecular difference between glucose transporters of facilitated diffusion systems and active transport systems.

Abstract
A panel of monoclonal antibodies was produced against purified microvillus membranes of human small intestinal enterocytes. By means of these probes three disaccharidases (sucrase-isomaltase, lactase-phlorizin hydrolase, and maltase-glucoamylase) and four peptidases (aminopeptidase N, dipeptidylpeptidase IV, angiotension I-converting enzyme, and p-aminobenzoic acid peptide hydrolase) were successfully identified as individual entities by SDS PAGE and localized in the microvillus border of the enterocytes by immunofluorescence microscopy. The antibodies were used to study the expression of small intestinal hydrolases in the colonic adenocarcinoma cell line Caco 2. This cell line was found to express sucrase-isomaltase, lactase-phlorizin hydrolase, aminopeptidase N, and dipeptidylpeptidase IV, but not the other three enzymes. Pulse-chase studies with [35S]methionine and analysis by subunit-specific monoclonal antibodies revealed that sucrase-isomaltase was synthesized and persisted as a single-chain protein comprising both subunits. Similarly, lactase-phlorizin hydrolase was synthesized as a large precursor about twice the size of the lactase subunits found in the human intestine. Aminopeptidase N and dipeptidylpeptidase IV, known to be dimeric enzymes in most mammals, were synthesized as monomers. Transport from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the trans-Golgi apparatus was considerably faster for the peptidases than for the disaccharidases, as probed by endoglycosidase H sensitivity. These results suggest that the major disaccharidases share a common biosynthetic mechanism that differs from that for peptidases. Furthermore, the data indicate that the transport of microvillus membrane proteins to and through the Golgi apparatus is a selective process that may be mediated by transport receptors.

Abstract
The covalently binding D-glucose analog 10-N-(bromoacetyl)amino-1-decyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (BADG) was synthesised and shown to be a high-affinity inhibitor of the renal Na+-D-glucose contransporter. From renal brush-border membranes a protein fraction was isolated, in which the concentration of Na+-dependent phlorizin binding sites per mg protein was enriched 7-fold. In labeling experiments with this protein fraction a polypeptide of Mr approximately 79000 was identified as containing the D-glucose binding site of the renal Na+-D-glucose cotransporter.

Abstract
Mono-, dicarboxylic acid-, and D-glucose transport were measured in brush border vesicles from renal cortex after treatment with reagents known to modify terminal amino, lysyl, epsilon-amino, guanidino, serine/threonine, histidyl, tyrosyl, tryptophanyl and carboxylic residues. All three sodium-coupled co-transport systems proved to possess sulfhydryl (and maybe tryptophanyl sulfhydryl, disulfide, thioether and tyrosyl) residues but not at the substrate site or at the allosteric cavity for the Na co-ion. Histidyl groups seem to be located in the active site of the dicarboxylic transporter in that the simultaneous presence of Na and succinate protects the transporter against the histidyl specific reagent diethylpyrocarbonate. Lithium, which specifically competes for sodium sites in the dicarboxylic acid transporter, substantially blocked the protective effect of Na and succinate. Hydroxylamine specifically reversed the covalent binding of diethylpyrocarbonate to the succinate binding site. The pH dependence of the Na/succinate cotransport is consistent with an involvement of histidyl and sulfhydryl residues. We conclude that a histidyl residue is at, or is close to, the active site of the dicarboxylate transporter in renal brush border membranes.

Abstract
Target sizes of the renal sodium-D-glucose cotransport system in brush-border membranes of calf kidney cortex were estimated by radiation inactivation. In brush-border vesicles irradiated at -50 degrees C with 1.5 MeV electron beams, sodium-dependent phlorizin binding, and Na+-dependent D-glucose tracer exchange decreased exponentially with increasing doses of radiation (0.4-4.4 Mrad). Inactivation of phlorizin binding was due to a reduction in the number of high-affinity phlorizin binding sites but not in their affinity. The molecular weight of the Na+-dependent phlorizin binding unit was estimated to be 230 000 +/- 38 000. From the tracer exchange experiments a molecular weight of 345 000 +/- 24 500 was calculated for the D-glucose transport unit. The validity of these target size measurements was established by concomitant measurements of two brush-border enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyltransferase, whose target sizes were found to be 68 570 +/- 2670 and 73 500 +/- 2270, respectively. These findings provide further evidence for the assumption that the sodium-D-glucose cotransport system is a multimeric structure, in which distinct complexes are responsible for phlorizin binding and D-glucose translocation.

Abstract
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) was used to label the rabbit intestinal brush border Na+-glucose carrier, identify the carrier protein on sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and monitor the effect of ions and substrates on fluorescence quenching. Enriched brush border preparations were employed to study both glucose transport and FITC binding. FITC and a nonfluorescent analog (phenyl isothiocyanate, PITC) both inhibited Na+-dependent D-glucose transport irreversibly. Inhibition was blocked completely by the presence of Na+ and D-glucose during labeling. PITC was used to label nonspecific amino groups in the presence of glucose and Na+, and then the glucose carrier was labeled with FITC in the absence of substrates. Fluorescence of FITC bound to the carrier was quenched specifically with Na+ in a saturable fashion, and this indicates a Na+-dependent conformational change in the carrier. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of FITC-labeled membranes revealed specific labeling of a 71,000-dalton peptide. We conclude that Na+ induces a conformational shift in the 71,000-dalton glucose carrier, and this is quite consistent with the kinetics of Na+-dependent glucose transport in these membranes.
