Detection of choline transporter‐like 1 protein CTL1 in neuroblastoma × glioma cells and in the CNS, and its role in choline uptake
10 Jun 2009
Abstract excerpt
Choline is an essential nutrient necessary for synthesis of membrane phospholipids, cell signalling molecules and acetylcholine. The aim of this study was to detect and characterize the choline transporter-like 1 (CTL1/SLC44A1) protein in CNS tissues and the hybrid neuroblastoma x glioma cell line NG108-15, which synthesizes acetylcholine and has high affinity choline transport but does not express the...
