SVCT2 is heterogeneously induced in reactive astrogliosis generated in different pathologies affecting the central nervous system.
Title: SVCT2 Expression and Function in Reactive Astrocytes Is a Common Event in Different Brain Pathologies.
We speculate that SVCT2, possibly regulated by JNK/p38 MAPKs, NF-kappaB signaling and miR-125a-5p, has a neuroprotective effect against EtOH-induced oxidative stress. Promotion of SVCT2 expression or stimulation of SVCT2 activity may be a promising therapeutic strategy for the prevention of EtOH-associated neurodegeneration.
Title: SVCT2, a potential therapeutic target, protects against oxidative stress during ethanol-induced neurotoxicity via JNK/p38 MAPKs, NF-κB and miRNA125a-5p.
Expression of SVCT2 was upregulated in neurons after middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion in the nondiabetic cortex, accompanied by an increase in total ascorbic acid in the tissue, and these responses were suppressed in the diabetic rats.
Title: Orally administrated ascorbic acid suppresses neuronal damage and modifies expression of SVCT2 and GLUT1 in the brain of diabetic rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.
metabolic/oxidative stress in the liver induce different responses in the expression of ascorbic acid transporters SVCT1 and SVCT2 in intrahepatic and extrahepatic tissues, which may affect the overall bioavailability and cellular uptake of this vitamin
Title: Liver metabolic/oxidative stress induces hepatic and extrahepatic changes in the expression of the vitamin C transporters SVCT1 and SVCT2.
Expression and localization of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter-2 in the sarcolemma is reduced by doxorubicin, a change blunted by vitamin C supplementation.
Title: Downregulation of vitamin C transporter SVCT-2 in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyocyte injury.
glutathione depletion failed to affect ascorbic acid transport, and SVCT1 and SVCT2 expression in hepatoma cells.
Title: Essential role of intracellular glutathione in controlling ascorbic acid transporter expression and function in rat hepatocytes and hepatoma cells.
In adult rats, when obstructive cholestasis was maintained for 8 weeks, a significant up-regulation of Slc23a2 accompanied by a down-regulation of Slc23a1 was found.
Title: Hepatic expression of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters: ontogeny, subtissular distribution and effect of chronic liver diseases.
Results suggest that reduced expression level of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter type-2 might be involved in the development of morphine side effects such as tolerance and dependency.
Title: Effect of chronic administration of morphine on the gene expression level of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters in rat hippocampus and lumbar spinal cord.
Analysis of SVCT messenger RNA (mRNA) levels shows that one isoform of this transport protein, SVCT1, declines 45% with age, with no significant changes in SVCT2 mRNA levels.
Title: Age-related decline of sodium-dependent ascorbic acid transport in isolated rat hepatocytes.
mRNA expression patterns of SVCT2 and the glutamate-activated immediate early gene Arc were investigated at 2 and 22 h after middle cerebral artery ischemia in rat brain
Title: Effect of middle cerebral artery occlusion on mRNA expression for the sodium-coupled vitamin C transporter SVCT2 in rat brain.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
