The rat
organic cation transporter (rOCT)-2 was characterized by electrical and
tracer flux measurements compared with rOCT1. By applying choline
gradients to voltage-clamped Xenopus oocytes expressing
rOCT2, potential-dependent currents could be induced in both
directions. Tracer flux measurements with seven organic cations
revealed similar Michaelis-Menten constant values for both
transporters, with the exception of guanidine. In parallel experiments
with rOCT2 and rOCT1, inhibition of tetraethylammonium transport by 12 cations, 2 weak bases, corticosterone, and the anions
para-amminohippurate,
-ketoglutarate, and probenecid was characterized. The IC50 values of many inhibitors were
similar for both transporters, whereas others were significantly
different. Mepiperphenidol and O-methylisoprenaline showed
an ~70-fold lower and corticosterone a 38-fold higher affinity for
rOCT2. With the use of these inhibitors together with previous
information on cation transporters, experimental protocols are proposed
to dissect out the individual contributions of rOCT2 and rOCT1 in
intact proximal tubule preparations. Inhibition experiments at
different pH levels strongly suggest that the weak base quinine
passively permeates the plasma membrane at physiological pH and
inhibits rOCT2 from the intracellular side.
