Downregulation of OCT is frequently observed in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and is associated with a poor outcome. The aim of our current study was to elucidate the impact of OCT3 on hepatocarcinogenesis. Methods: Transcriptional and functional loss of OCT was investigated in primary murine hepatocytes, derived from Oct3-knockout (Oct3 -/- ; FVB.Slc22a3 tm1Dpb ) and wildtype (WT) mice. Liver tumors were induced in Oct3 -/- and WT mice with Diethylnitrosamine and Phenobarbital over 10 months and characterized macroscopically and microscopically. Key survival pathways were investigated by Western Blot analysis. Results: Loss of Oct3 -/- in primary hepatocytes resulted in significantly reduced OCT activity determined by [ 3 H]MPP + uptake in vivo . Furthermore, tumor size and quantity were markedly enhanced in Oct3 -/- mice (p |
