Mouse Organic Anion Transporter 2 (mOat2) Mediates the Transport of Short Chain Fatty Acid Propionate

In this study, we have elucidated that propionate, one of the short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), is the transport substrate for murine organic anion transporter 2 (mOat2), which is expressed in the kidneys and the liver. When expressed in Xenopus oocytes, mOat2-mediated [3H]PGE2transport was inhibited...
