Abstract
The vast majority of surface molecules in such kinetoplastid protozoa as members of the genus Leishmania contain inositol and are either glycosyl inositol phospholipids or glycoproteins that are tethered to the external surface of the plasma membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchors. We have shown that the biosynthetic precursor for these abundant glycolipids, myo-inositol, is translocated across the parasite plasma membrane by a specific transporter that is structurally related to mammalian facilitative glucose transporters. This myo-inositol transporter has been expressed and characterized in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Two-electrode voltage clamp experiments demonstrate that this protein is a sodium-independent electrogenic symporter that appears to utilize a proton gradient to concentrate myo-inositol within the cell. Immunolocalization experiments with a transporter-specific polyclonal antibody reveal the presence of this protein in the parasite plasma membrane.

Abstract
Inositol uptake was studied in the rat CNS neuroblastoma B50 cell line. Eadie-Hofstee analysis of the uptake pattern reveals two defined modes of inositol entry into the cell. The high-affinity uptake component requires the presence of extracellular sodium and is inhibited by phloridzin. Analysis of the uptake velocities of the high-affinity uptake component provided the following apparent kinetic parameters: Km = 13.7 microM and Vmax = 14.7 pmol/mg of protein/min (without correcting for residual diffusion) and Km = 12.9 microM and Vmax = 12.3 pmol/mg of protein/min (with correction). At physiological concentrations, the high-affinity transport process contributes approximately 70% to total uptake; the remainder is due to a low-affinity diffusion-like process. Uptake inhibition studies reveal that the uptake process is sensitive to ouabain, amiloride, and dichlorobenzamil inhibition but relatively insensitive to cytochalasin B or phloretin. When neuroblastoma B50 cells are induced to differentiate morphologically with high extracellular calcium or with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, a significant decrease in inositol uptake is observed. The dibutyryl cyclic AMP-mediated inhibition of uptake affects only the high-affinity uptake component and is noncompetitive in nature. The high extracellular calcium-mediated inhibition is less specific; it involves "disappearance" of the high-affinity process, some inhibition of the low-affinity process, and an increase of inositol efflux. The significance of these observations is discussed in the context of neuroblastoma B50 cell differentiation.

Abstract
Lymphoblastoid cell lines established from patients suffering from bipolar manic-depressive psychosis or from a control group have been used to study the metabolism of the polyphosphoinositides in these cells. Cells were incubated for up to 6 h in [3H]inositol and the extent of inositol incorporation into the mono-, di- and triphosphoinositides was measured after extracting the water- and lipid-soluble inositol-containing pools. Although both the uptake of inositol and the 'free' intracellular inositol pool sizes were similar in the two cell groups, the incorporation of [3H]inositol into the phosphoinositides of the cells derived from bipolar manic-depressives was significantly less (by around 50-60%) than that which occurred in the control cells.

Abstract
Rabbit anti-bovine myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase was used to examine the distribution of that enzyme in perfused and immersion-fixed bovine brain and testis. In brain, intense and specific staining was found in the walls of all the vascular elements including cerebral capillaries. The remainder of brain parenchyma exhibited only low levels of background staining. In testis, an organ rich in the enzyme, blood vessels showed no specific staining. Instead, the enzyme was found in the seminiferous epithelium of the seminiferous tubules, perhaps localized in spermatozoa. To confirm the brain finding, the activity of myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase was measured in bovine brain microvessel preparations and brain pial vessels. In these preparations the activity of the enzyme was found on average to be 7 and 22 times enriched over that in whole brain, respectively. The activities of two other enzymes of inositol metabolism, myo-inosose reductase and myo-inositol-1-phosphatase, were also examined for their distribution in brain. Those enzymes were found to be generally distributed. The surprising finding of a vascular localization of myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase in brain raises new questions about the mechanism by which myo-inositol is concentrated to such high cellular levels in the principal substance of that organ.

Abstract
myo-Inositol uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was dependent on temperature, time, and substrate concentration. The transport obeyed saturation kinetics with an apparent Km for myo-inositol of 0.1 mM, myo-Inositol analogs, such as scyllo-inositol, 2-inosose, mannitol, and 1,2-cyclohexanediol, had no effect on myo-inositol uptake, myo-Inositol uptake required metabolic energy. Removal of D-glucose resulted in a loss of activity, and azide and cyanide ions were inhibitory. In the presence of D-glucose, myo-inositol was accumulated in the cells against a concentration gradient. A myo-inositol transport mutant was isolated from UV-mutagenized S. cerevisiae cells using the replica-printing technique. The defect in myo-inositol uptake was due to a single nuclear gene mutation. The activities of L-serine and D-glucose transport were not affected by the mutation. Thus it was shown that S. cerevisiae grown under the present culture conditions possessed a single and specific myo-inositol transport system. myo-Inositol transport activity was reduced by the addition of myo-inositol to the culture medium. The activity was reversibly restored by the removal of myo-inositol from the medium. This restoration of activity was completely abolished by cycloheximide.

Abstract
The cellular uptake of nonphosphorylated myo-inositol (MI) and its incorporation into phosphoinositide in the rat epitrochlearis muscle was measured. Cellular uptake of [2-(3)H]MI was determined by the difference between total uptake and [2-(3)H]MI present in the extracellular fluid determined with [1-(14)C]mannitol. Cellular uptake was parabolic and directly proportional to medium MI concentrations between 25 and 3,200 muM. Saturation of a MI carrier was not evident. Moreover, uptake was not inhibited by 2 mM ouabain, 0.3 mM 2,4-dinitrophenol, or 22 mM glucose. Insulin, 100 mU/ml, was without effect on either cellular uptake of [2-(3)H]MI or its incorporation into phosphoinositides. In muscles that were preloaded with [2-(3)H]MI and then incubated in media that contained a constant amount of MI but no [2-(3)H]MI, 44.3% of the [2-(3)H]MI was released after 10 min increasing to 62.5% by 120 min. Cellular MI concentrations were 0.18 mumol/g wet tissue (four times plasma levels) in rapidly isolated and frozen epitrochlearis muscle. When muscle was incubated without MI, 48% of endogenous MI was lost rapidly. Restoration of cellular MI in 50 muM MI media occurred in two phases, a rapid uptake phase lasting 10 min and a subsequent slow phase of MI uptake. It is concluded that MI enters and leaves skeletal muscle cells freely by a process that does not involve active transport. Neither insulin nor hyperglycemia affected MI transport nor its incorporation into phosphoinositides. The intracellular to medium concentration gradient may be dependent on reversible binding to tubulin and possibly to other intracellular components.

Abstract
Myoinositol uptake by rat hepatocytes in vitro was studied. Adult rat hepatocytes were prepared by digestion of the perfused liver with collagenase. Cell suspensions were incubated with tritium-labeled myoinositol in pH 7.4 Krebs bicarbonate solution containing 1% gelatin at 37 degrees. 14C-Carbon-labeled polyethylene glycol was used as a marker of adherent extracellular fluid volume. Myoinositol uptake was demonstrable after 5 min of incubation, but no intracellular concentration in excess of that in the incubation medium was observed after 60 min of incubation. Uptake saturation over a wide myoinositol concentration range could not be demonstrated. Neither the omission of sodium ions nor the inclusion of ouabain suppressed the distribution ratio significantly. Metabolic inhibitors and lower temperatures also showed no effect. Hexoses, phlorizin or mannitol, exerted no observable effect on myoinositol uptake. The results indicated that myoinositol uptake by rat hepatocytes is probably a passive process.

Abstract
The myo-inositol uptake system was studied in lenses of normal and hereditary cataract mouse. The normal mouse was able to accumulate myo-inositol continuously from medium and keep it in a high concentration. The specific myo-inositol uptake was dependent on temperature and it decreased in Ca(2+)-free medium. In contrast, specific uptake of myo-inositol reached a plateau after 15 min in the cataract mouse lens although initial incorporation was more rapid than that in normal mouse lens. This uptake system was not affected by temperature or Ca(2+) in the medium. The rate of myo-inositol efflux into the medium was more rapid in the cataract lens than that of the normal lens. It was shown that the low level of myo-inositol in the lens of hereditary cataract mouse was due to the defect of myo-inositol transport system and the enhanced efflux rate. These results suggest a dysfunction of the lens membrane.

Abstract
Myoinositol and its phosphorylated derivatives have been quantitatively determined in normal and Rous-sarcoma-virus-transformed quail cells under various growth conditions using [2-(3)H]myoinositol at isotope equilibrium conditions. The following amounts were determined (nmol/mumol phospholipid, as a unit of cell mass): exponentially growing normal and tumor cells contained 25--40 nmol free inositol, 0.40--0.45 nmol myoinositol 1-phosphate, 0.30--0.50 nmol glycerylphosphoinositol, and 0.03--0.04 nmol myoinositol cyclic 1 : 2-phosphate. At high cell populations in the absence of serum, conditions which result in cessation of growth by normal but not by tumor cells, changed levels were found for glycerylphosphoinositol and free inositol. In tumor cells the levels of these two compounds increased to 0.64 nmol and 64 nmol, respectively. In normal cells glycerylphosphoinositol increased to 0.95 nmol and free inositol showed highly elevated levels of 144 nmol. At short pulses the specific activities of inositol 1-phosphate and inositol cyclic 1 : 2-phosphate were found to be higher than that of phosphatidylinositol. This was not the case for glycerylphosphoinositol.

Abstract
Infection of chicken fibroblasts with Newcastle-disease virus indicates that cellular inositol is compartmented in at least two pools. Only the smaller pool is directly connected with the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol. Entrance of exogenous inositol into this pool is inhibited by phlorizin but not by the virus. Three hours after infection Newcastle-disease virus blocks the entrance of inositol from the small pool into one (or more) subsequent larger pool(s). About five hours after infection the virus enhances the catabolism of phosphatidylinositol in chicken cells and about seven hours after infection the permeability of the plasma membrane increases.

Abstract
Using hypotonically treated brush border membranes, binding and transport of myo-inositol were examined. By hypotonic treatment, both total and non-specific uptake decreased significantly, but specific uptake was not affected. myo-Inositol release from membranes preloaded by incubation for 2 min was very rapid and about 98% of preloaded myo-inositol was released in 5 min of incubation. However, myo-inositol release from membranes preloaded by incubation for 20 min was fairly slow and 50% of myo-inositol remained in the membranes even after 10 min of incubation. Uptake of myo-inositol decreased by the increase of osmolarity in the medium. However, effect of osmolarity on the uptake was less significant when myo-inositol concentration was lower. Under conditions in which mainly binding occurred, myo-inositol binding to the membranes was measured. Two binding systems were demonstrated and high affinity site could bind 22 pmol/mg protein at most and the apparent Km value was 8.3 muM. Both binding and transport processes were dependent on Na+ and enhanced by Na+-gradient.
