The peptide transporter PEPT1 in the small intestine plays an important role in the absorption of small peptides and peptide-like drugs. We examined the effect of thyroid hormone (T3) on the activity and expression of PEPT1 in human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Treatment of Caco-2 cells with T3 inhibited [14C]glycylsarcosine uptake in time- and dose-dependent manner. [14C]glycylsarcosine uptake was reduced by pretreatment of the cells with 100 nM T3 for 4 days (67% of control value), whereas [14C]
-methyl-D-glucoside and [3H]threonine uptake were not decreased. Kinetic analysis showed that T3 treatment significantly decreased the Vmax value for [14C]glycylsarcosine uptake but had no effect on the Km value. Moreover, T3 treatment caused a significant decrease in the amount of PEPT1 mRNA (25% of the control). Western blotting indicated that the amount of PEPT1 protein in the apical membrane was decreased (70% of the control). These findings indicate that T3 treatment inhibits the uptake of glycylsarcosine by decreasing the transcription and/or stability of PEPT1 mRNA.
