TABLE 2

Inhibition constants (Ki) of Gly-Sar and seven ACE inhibitors for the inhibition of [14C]Gly-Sar uptake in HRPE-hPEPT1 and HRPE-hPEPT2 cells Uptake of [14C]Gly-Sar (20 or 30 μM, 5 or 10 min, respectively) was measured at pH 6.0 with increasing concentrations of the test compounds (0–100 mM). Constants were derived from the competition curves shown in Figure 3. Parameters are shown ± S.E. (n = 4).
