Solute carrier (SLC) transporters control fluxes of nutrients and metabolites across membranes and thereby represent a critical interface between the microenvironment and cellular and subcellular metabolism. Because of substantial functional overlap, the interplay and relative contributions of SL...
Solute carrier (SLC) transporters govern most of the chemical exchange across cellular membranes and are integral to metabolic regulation, which in turn is linked to cellular function and identity. Despite their key role, individual functions of the SLC superfamily members were not evaluated syst...

The involvement of membrane-bound solute carriers (SLCs) in neoplastic transdifferentiation processes is poorly defined. Here, we examined changes in the SLC landscape during epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of pancreatic cancer cells. We show that two SLCs from the organic anion...
The central nervous system has been implicated in the age-induced reduction in adipose tissue lipolysis. SLC7A14 is a lysosomal membrane protein highly expressed in the brain. Herein, we investigated the possible role of hypothalamic SLC7A14 in the age-induced lipolysis reduction. In this study, ...
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), such as olaparib, have significantly improved outcomes in ovarian cancer (OC); however, therapy resistance remains a major clinical challenge. Here, we showed that glutamine metabolism was upregulated in PARPi-resistant OC cells and identified the g...
Modulating cell endocytosis activity to reduce host susceptibility to virus represents a promising strategy for antiviral drug development. In this study, we reveal that lactate transporter SLC16A3 as a critical host factor for reducing diverse virus invasion. By performing metabolomics, proteomi...
