Uptake of 7 beta-NBD-NCT ([N-[7-(4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazol)]-7 beta- amino-3 alpha,12 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oyl)-2'- aminoethanesulfonate) in isolated rat liver hepatocytes occurs by saturable transport without being superimposed by simple diffusion. The dependency of flux rate of uptake on the concentration of 7 beta-NBD- NCT in the presence of Na+ (143 mM) and with Na+ depletion (1 mM) is best described by the assumption of two simple transport systems. Maximal flux rates of uptake Jn and half-saturation constants KT for 7 beta-NBD-NCT are in presence of Na+ for transport system 1 J1(Na+ 143) = 0.15 +/- 0.03 nmol/(min.mg protein) and KT1(Na+ 143) = 3.5 +/- 0.5 microM and for transport system 2 J2(Na+ 143) = 1.0 +/- 0.1 nmol/(min.mg protein) and KT2(Na+ 143) = 190 +/- 25 microM, and in case of Na+ depletion J1(Na+ 1) = 0.1 +/- 0.03 nmol/(min.mg protein), KT1(Na+ 1) = 3.0 +/- 0.5 microM, and J2(Na+ 1) = 0.85 +/- 0.9 nmol/(min.mg protein) and KT2(Na+ 1) = 195 +/- 27 microM. Uptake of 7 beta-NBD-NCT by both transport systems is competitively inhibited by cholyltaurine in the presence of Na+ and with Na+ depletion. Two transport systems are likewise involved in the uptake of cholyltaurine in the presence of Na+ as well as in case of Na+ depletion. Their kinetic parameters are in presence of Na+ J'1(Na+ 143) = 1.55 +/- 0.14 nmol/(min.mg protein) and K'T1(Na+ 143) = 16.1 +/- 3.0 microM, and J'2(Na+ 143) = 0.51 +/- 0.05 nmol/(min.mg protein) and K'T2(Na+ 143) = 38.0 +/- 4.1 microM, and in case of Na+ depletion J'1(Na+ 1) = 0.10 +/- 0.02 nmol/(min.mg protein), K'T1(Na+ 1) = 7.7 +/- 1.2 microM, and J'2(Na+ 1) = 0.40 +/- 0.03 nmol/(min.mg protein) and K'T2(Na+ 1) = 41.0 +/- 4.2 microM. Uptake of cholyltaurine by both transport systems is competitively inhibited by 7 beta-NBD-NCT in the presence of Na+ as well as in case of Na+ depletion. In both cases the inhibition constants are practically identical with the KT values for uptake of 7 beta-NBD-NCT. Photoaffinity labeling of isolated hepatocytes using 7,7- ACT (400 microM) resulted in the irreversible inhibition of uptake of both bile salts to similar extents, confirming the kinetic data that 7 beta-NBD-NCT is a true analogue of cholyltaurine.
