Physiological Reviews PodcastAuthor: American Physiological Society
Each episode of the Physiological Reviews podcast features commentary and discussion of newly published articles in the journal, which provides state-of-the-art, comprehensive, and high-impact coverage of timely issues in the physiological and biomedical sciences. Physiological Reviews articles appeal to physiologists, neuroscientists, cell biologists, biophysicists, and clinicians with special interest in pathophysiology. The journal is very useful in teaching and research because it provides non-biased and clearly written updates on important developments.

The SLC-ome of Membrane Transport
Episode 31
Wednesday, 10 December, 2025
In our latest episode, Associate Editor Dr. John Orlowski (McGill University) interviews Dr. Matthias A Hediger (University of Bern) about the new Review article by Gyimesi et al. published in Physiological Reviews on the intracies of a superfamily of membrane solute carriers that is critically important to our understanding of human health and disease. This extensive Review contains over 3500 citations describing the superfamily of solute carriers the authors refer to as “The SLC-ome.” These SLCs comprise the largest group of membrane transport proteins encoded by the human genome and are responsible for moving numerous solutes and other essential biological compounds in and out of cells. Ready to learn more about how the SLC-ome is essential to mediating the movement of nutrients, electrolytes, metabolites and other molecules, such as pharmacological drugs, across cellular and organellar membranes? Listen now to learn more.
