Abstrakt: Sodium-phosphate transporter NPT4 (SLC17A3) is a membrane transporter for organic anionic compounds localized on the apical membranes of kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells and plays a role in the urinary excretion of organic anionic compounds. However, its physiological role has not been sufficiently elucidated because its substrate specificity is yet to be determined. The present study aimed to comprehensively explore the physiological substrates of NPT4 in newly developed Slc17a3 -/- mice using a metabolomic approach. Metabolomic analysis showed that the plasma concentrations of 11 biological substances, including 3-indoxyl sulfate, were more than two-fold higher in Slc17a3 -/- mice than in wild-type mice. Moreover, urinary excretion of 3-indoxyl sulfate was reduced in Slc17a3 -/- mice compared to that in wild-type mice. The uptake of 3-indoxyl sulfate by NPT4-expressing Xenopus oocytes was significantly higher than that by water-injected oocytes. The calculated K m and V max values for NPT4-mediated 3-indoxyl sulfate uptake were 4.52 ± 1.18 mM and 1.45 ± 0.14 nmol/oocyte/90 min, respectively. In conclusion, the present study revealed that 3-indoxyl sulfate is a novel substrate of NPT4 based on the metabolomic analysis of Slc17a3 -/- mice, suggesting that NPT4 regulates systemic exposure to 3-indoxyl sulfate by regulating its urinary excretion.
