摘要：The uptake of 3H-pyridoxol by everted intestinal rings of the rat was studied mainly at concentrations of 0.1-4μM of the vitamin in the medium. Incubation of the tissue at 37°C for 60 min in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate medium containing glucose and labelled pyridoxol resulted in intracellular accumulation of the labelled compounds. The total intracellular concentration of the compounds after the incubation was always higher than the extracellular concentration, and this accumu-lation was especially appreciable at relatively low external concentra-tions of the 3H-vitamin. The uptake under the same conditions was partially saturated with increasing concentration of 3H-pyridoxol in the medium, whereas the uptake during the initial 5 min of incubation increased in a linear manner with an increase of external concentration. The uptake was markedly depressed by lowering the temperature of incubation or addition of 4-deoxypyridoxol. The inhibition by 4-deoxypyridoxol affected the time course of uptake mainly in its later period, and also depressed both the linear and saturable components contained in the relation of uptake to the external concentration of the 3H-vitamin. However, a considerable uptake occurred even at the maximum inhibition with 4-deoxypyridoxol. Examination of the intracellular forms of the 3H-vitamin taken up revealed that the major components were three B6 phosphates. This phosphorylating tendency was particularly extreme when the tissue was incubated under conditions allowing marked accumulation of the 3H-vitamin. Of these phosphate esters, 3H-pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate appeared most highly responsible for the accumulation. 4-Deoxypyridoxol remark-ably diminished the 3H-vitamin B6 phosphates with a consequent de-crease of total intracellular 3H-vitamin B6 compounds, although it permitted free 3H-pyridoxol increase. From these results it is con-cluded that pyridoxol enters the intracellular space by simple diffusion, is accumulated by metabolic conversion to the phosphate forms of the vitamin, and the converion is inhibited by 4-deoxypyridoxol.
