A function of the kidney is elimination of a variety of xenobiotics ingested and wasted endogenous compounds from the body. Organic anion and cation transport systems play important roles to protect the body from harmful substances. The renal proximal tubule is the primary site of carrier-mediated transport from blood into urine. During the last decade, molecular cloning has identified several families of multispecific organic anion and cation transporters, such as organic anion transporter (OAT), organic cation transporter (OCT), and organic anion-transporting polypeptide (oatp). Additional findings also suggested ATP-dependent organic ion transporters such as MDR1/P-glycoprotein and the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) as efflux pump. The substrate specificity of these transporters is multispecific. These transporters also play an important role as drug transporters. Studies on their functional properties and localization provide information in renal handling of drugs. This review summarizes the latest knowledge on molecular properties and pharmacological significance of renal organic ion transporters.

In this study poly (1-methyl-4-vinylpyridinium iodide-co-styrene) membrane with pyridinium cation as a fixed carrier was synthesized and the transport characteristics of the membrane was examined over various factors. As the concentration of the fixed carrier in the membrane was increased, the water content was increased. Meanwhile, the counter current of the organic anion and the chloride ion, the following results were obtained. Initial flux of Cl-, organic anion and Na+ decreased with the increasing thickness of membrane, and as the concentration of the fixed carrier increases, the initial flux of Cl- and organic anion increase but the initial flux of Na+ decreased. The flux equation of the organic anion, CCl3COO- was obtained from saturation kinetics as follows;$V_{o}=\frac{(8.67{\times}10^{-5}){\cdot}[NaCl]}{9.63{\times}10^{-2}+[NaCl]} mol/cm^2h$

In this study, a series of anion conductive organic/inorganic composite membranes with excellent ionic conductivity and chemical stability were prepared by introducing graphene oxide (GO) inorganic nanofiller into the quaternized poly(phenylen oxide (Q-PPO) polymer matrix. The fabricated organic/inorganic composite membranes showed higher ionic conductivity than the pristine membrane. In particular, Q-PPO/GO 0.7 showed the highest ionic conductivity value of 143.2 mS/cm at 90℃, which was 1.56 times higher than the pristine membrane Q-PPO (91.5 mS/cm). In addition, the organic/inorganic composite membrane showed superior dimensional stability and alkaline stability compared to the pristine membrane, and the physicochemical stability was improved as the content of inorganic fillers increased. Therefore, we suggest that the as-prepared organic/inorganic composite membranes are very promising materials for anion exchange membrane applications with high conductivity and alkaline stability.

The present study aimed to investigate the interaction of nucleoside analogs with human organic anion transporter 1 and 3(hOAT1 and hOAT3) that play a primary role in the tubular uptake of endogenous and exogenous organic anions in the kidney. The interactions of ddC, ara-C, ara-A and ara-U with hOAT1 and hOAT3 were examined using MDCK cells stably overexpressing hOAT1 or hOAT3. Among the tested drugs, ddC showed the highest affinity to hOAT1 with $IC_{50}$ values of 5.2 mM, while ara-A, ara-C and ara-U weakly inhibited the cellular uptake of $[^3H]-PAH$ in MDCK-hOAT1 cells at 1 mM. In contrast, all the tested drugs did not have any inhibition effect on the cellular uptake of $[^3H]-estrone$ sulfate in MDCK-hOAT3 cells over the drug concentration of 0.01-2 mM, implying that they might not interact with hOAT3. Taken all together, the present study suggests that hOAT1 could weakly interact with nucleoside analogues such as ddC, ara-C, ara-A and ara-U but the interaction with hOAT3 during the urinary excretion of these nucleoside analogues may be negligible in the kidney.

In this study, we synthesized a poly(pheneylene oxide) (PPO)-based organic/inorganic composite membrane having silicotungstic acid (STA) for the development of an anion exchange membrane with excellent ionic conductivity and physicochemical stability. The organic/inorganic composite membranes were prepared by introducing different STA contents (0 wt%, 10 wt%, 30 wt%, and 50 wt%) into the quaternizaed(Q)-PPO matrix. The prepared anion exchange membranes were subjected to structural analysis by proton neclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared, and thermal behavior of membranes was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis. Among the prepared composite membranes, the ion conductivity of Q-PPO/STA-50 (40.5 mS cm^-1) showed 1.46 times compared to that of the pristine membrane (27.6 mS cm^-1). Therefore, these results demonstrated that organic/inorganic composite membranes are promising candidates for application of anion exchange membranes.

Considering the number of chemosensors that have been developed for the sensing of metal ions, only a few chemosensors for fluoride anion have been described in the literature that are based on fluorescent or chromogenic responses. We performed colorimetric anion sensing based on the binding of anion analytes with hydrogen donor group in polymer backbone resulting in naked-eye color change and fluorescent quenching. Our challenges using hydrogen donor moiety was designed effectively are continuing in order for high selectivity and sensitivity for ultimate applications such as fluid solution sensing in biomolecules and gas vapor sensing.

A simple chromogenic system based on 1-fluoride was developed to determine water content in organic solvent. This system utilized deprotonation and protonation of the anion receptor 1. The water content evaluated from this system gave close value to the real water content in the range of 0 to 0.35% in acetonitrile and 0.2 to 0.5% in DMSO. Therefore, protonation and deprotonation phenomenon from the anion receptor by basic anion could be promising method for water sensing system.

We synthesized a poly[2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl) benzoxazole] under the two step procedures of Suzuki coupling polymerization with corresponding monomers followed by the deprotection of benzyl group. The polymer in DMF solution is applicable to colorimetric sensing fluoride anion, which shows a color change from colorless to yellow. High sensitivity to fluoride anion compared to other anions such as phosphate, chloride, and sulfate is ascribed to the high coordination ability of the 2-(2'-hydroxy phenyl)benzoxazole moiety in the polymer chain. Emission shift by metal cations, which can be applied to fluorescent sensing w as also observed in the polymer solution.
