Alternate Name: Sodium-coupled monocarboxylate transporter 1, Apical iodide transporter, Electrogenic sodium monocarboxylate cotransporter, Sodium iodide-related cotransporter, Solute carrier family 5 member 8, SLC5A8 {ECO:0000312|EMBL:AAP46193.1}

User Note: Optimal dilutions for each application to be determined by the researcher.

BACKGROUND: Acts as an electrogenic sodium (Na (+) ) and chloride (Cl-) -dependent sodium-coupled solute transporter, including transport of monocarboxylates (short-chain fatty acids including L-lactate, D-lactate, pyruvate, acetate, propionate, valerate and butyrate) , lactate, mocarboxylate drugs (nicotinate, benzoate, salicylate and 5-aminosalicylate) and ketone bodies (beta-D- hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate and alpha-ketoisocaproate) , with a Na (+) :substrate stoichiometry of between 4:1 and 2:1. Catalyzes passive carrier mediated diffusion of iodide. Mediates iodide transport from the thyrocyte into the colloid lumen through the apical membrane. May be responsible for the absorption of D- lactate and monocarboxylate drugs from the intestinal tract. Acts as a tumor suppressor, suppressing colony formation in colon cancer, prostate cancer and glioma cell lines. May play a critical role in the entry of L-lactate and ketone bodies into neurons by a process driven by an electrochemical Na (+) gradient and hence contribute to the maintenance of the energy status and function of neurons.
