Solute carrier family 22 member 10 (SLC22A10), also known as the organic anion transporter 5 (OAT5), is a protein encoded by the SLC22A10 gene. Organic anion transporter 5 (OAT5), is characterized by an organic anion/dicarboxylic acid exchanger. This protein is localized on the edge film of the proximal tubule straight segment (S3). Oatmeal 5 has been reported to interact with many anionic drugs such as bumetanide, furosemide, penicillin G, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Under pathological conditions, the function of organic anion exchangers in kidney cells has not been fully elucidated.

SLC22A10 is expressed only in the kidney, and its urinary excretion is considered to be an early biomarker of kidney damage. The organic anion transporter (OAT) family consists of a group of more than 10 transmembrane proteins belonging to the SLC22 (solute carrier 22) subfamily of the major promoter superfamily (MFS). The SLC22 subfamily also includes organic cation transporters (OCTs) and organic carnitine (zwitterion) transporter (OCTNs). OAT family members are very similar in the subclass of the SLC22 transmitter and have many structural features with other MFS proteins. Modeling, mutagenesis, and other studies are consistent with the notion that these transmembrane proteins are composed of approximately 540-560 amino acids, consisting of 12 transmembrane domains.

This article suggests that organic anions of different pathophysiological importance can be absorbed/eliminated by using the outward gradient of citric acid produced by NaDC1.
The results that imply urinary excretion of SLC22A10 can be considered as a potential non-invasive biomarker for kidney damage associated with vascular calcification.
This article reveals that in system physiology, the effects of various forms of SLC22A10 appear to be quite complex, and their effects are discussed in the context of remote sensing and signal transmission.
These results suggest that urinary excretion of SLC22A10 may be an early indicator of renal insufficiency, which is useful for detecting small changes in kidney structural and functional integrity.
This review introduced organic anion transporters and its regulatory mechanisms.
