Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ifosfamide (IFO) is considered an essential drug for the treatment of pediatric, adolescent and young adult patients with solid tumors. Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is one of the dose-limiting toxicity of IFO. However, there are insufficient evidence for risk factor and supportive care of IFO-induced HC. METHODS In this retrospective study, patients (<30-year-old) with malignant solid tumors who had been treated with IFO-based chemotherapy, were categorized according to the presence or absence of HC, and were analyzed possible risk factors for IFO-induced HC. In our institution, continuous hydration to increase urine output and intravenous 2-mercaptethane sulfonate (mesna) are used for prophylaxis of IFO-induced HC. Increased hydration and dosage of mesna are administered to patients who develop IFO-induced HC; they also receive 24-h continuous infusion of mesna in subsequent treatment cycles. RESULTS Nine treatment regimens were used in the 70 study patients. The range of daily IFO dosage was 1.2-3.0 g/m(2). HC occurred in 14/425 IFO-based chemotherapy cycles (3.3%). The daily IFO dosages (mean ± SD) in patients with or without HC were 2.23 ± 0.58 g/m(2) and 1.85 ± 0.50 g/m(2), respectively (P = 0.006). Only one of the nine patients who developed IFO-induced HC had experienced this complication in a subsequent cycle of treatment. CONCLUSION The incidence of IFO-induced HC may be associated with the dosage of IFO. When administering IFO higher than 2.0 g/m(2)/day, the volume of hydration, dosage of mesna and duration of mesna infusion should be increased to prevent HC.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation induced by reactive oxygen species is associated with increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which serves as a key mediator of inflammatory responses, plays an important role in CRC initiation and progression. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of prostaglandin transporter OATP2A1/SLCO2A1 in the changes of PGE2 disposition in CRC cells in response to oxidative stress. H2O2 induced translocation of cytoplasmic OATP2A1 to plasma membranes in LoVo and COLO 320DM cells, but not in Caco-2 cells. The shift of subcellular OATP2A1 was abolished in the presence of anti-oxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine or an inhibitor of protein kinase C, which evokes exocytosis. Exposure of LoVo cells to H2O2 caused an increase in the amount of extracellular PGE2 without changing the sum of intra- and extracellular PGE2. OATP2A1 knockdown decreased extracellular PGE2 in LoVo cells. In addition, extracellular PGE2 was significantly reduced by exocytosis inhibitor cytochalasin D, suggesting that H2O2-induced PGE2 release occurs in an exocytotic manner. Furthermore, mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was significantly reduced in LoVo cells by knockdown of OATP2A1. These results suggest that cytoplasmic OATP2A1 likely facilitates PGE2 loading into suitable intracellular compartment(s) for efficient exocytotic PGE2 release from CRC cells exposed to oxidative stress.

Abstract
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)-derived prostaglandin E3 (PGE3) possesses an anti-inflammatory effect; however, information for transporters that regulate its peri-cellular concentration is limited. The present study, therefore, aimed to clarify transporters involved in local disposition of PGE3. PGE3 uptake was assessed in HEK293 cells transfected with OATP2A1/SLCO2A1, OATP1B1/SLCO1B1, OATP2B1/SLCO2B1, OAT1/SLC22A6, OCT1/SLC22A1 or OCT2/SLC22A2 genes, compared with HEK293 cells transfected with plasmid vector alone (Mock). PGE3 uptake by OATP2A1-expressing HEK293 cells (HEK/2A1) was the highest and followed by HEK/1B1, while no significantly higher uptake of PGE3 than Mock cells was detected by other transporters. Saturation kinetics in PGE3 uptake by HEK/2A1 estimated the Km as 7.202 ± 0.595 μM, which was 22 times higher than that of PGE2 (Km=0.331 ± 0.131 μM). Furthermore, tissue disposition of PGE3 was examined in wild-type (WT) and Slco2a1-deficient (Slco2a1(-/-)) mice after oral administration of EPA ethyl ester (EPA-E) when they underwent intraperitoneal injection of endotoxin (e.g., lipopolysaccharide). PGE3 concentration was significantly higher in the lung, and tended to increase in the colon, stomach, and kidney of Slco2a1(-/-), compared to WT mice. Ratio of PGE2 metabolite 15-keto PGE2 over PGE2 concentration was significantly lower in the lung and colon of Slco2a1(-/-) than that of WT mice, suggesting that PGE3 metabolism is downregulated in Slco2a1(-/-) mice. In conclusion, PGE3 was found to be a substrate of OATP2A1, and local disposition of PGE3 could be regulated by OATP2A1 at least in the lung.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal toxicity, such as late-onset diarrhea, is a significant concern in irinotecan hydrochloride (CPT-11)-containing regimens. Prophylaxis of late-onset diarrhea has been reported with use of Japanese traditional (Kampo) medicine containing baicalin and with the antibiotic cefixime, and this has been explained in terms of inhibition of bacterial deconjugation of SN-38-glucuronide since unconjugated SN-38 (active metabolite of CPT-11) is responsible for the gastrointestinal toxicity. It is also prerequisite for SN-38 to be accumulated in intestinal tissues to exert toxicity. Based on the fact that liver-specific organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, a member of the same family as OATP2B1, is known to be involved in hepatic transport of SN-38, we hypothesized that intestinal transporter OATP2B1 contributes to the accumulation of SN-38 in gastrointestinal tissues, and its inhibition would help prevent associated toxicity. We found that uptake of SN-38 by OATP2B1-expressing Xenopus oocytes was significantly higher than that by control oocytes. OATP2B1-mediated uptake of SN-38 was saturable, pH dependent, and decreased in the presence of baicalin, cefixime, or fruit juices such as apple juice. In vivo gastrointestinal toxicity of SN-38 in mice caused by oral administration for consecutive 5 days was prevented by coingestion of apple juice. Thus, OATP2B1 contributes to the uptake of SN-38 by intestinal tissues, triggering gastrointestinal toxicity. So, in addition to the reported inhibition of bacterial β-glucuronidase by cefixime or baicalin, inhibition of OATP2B1 may also contribute to prevention of gastrointestinal toxicity. Apple juice may be helpful for prophylaxis of late-onset diarrhea observed in CPT-11 therapy without disturbance of the intestinal microflora.

Abstract
To quantitatively understand the events in the human liver, we modeled a hepatic disposition of bosentan and its three known metabolites (Ro 48-5033, Ro 47-8634, and Ro 64-1056) in sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes based on the known metabolic pathway. In addition, the hepatotoxicity of Ro 47-8634 and Ro 64-1056 was investigated because bosentan is well known as a hepatotoxic drug. A model illustrating the hepatic disposition of bosentan and its three metabolites suggested the presence of a novel metabolic pathway(s) from the three metabolites. By performing in vitro metabolism studies on human liver microsomes, a novel metabolite (M4) was identified in Ro 47-8634 metabolism, and its structure was determined. Moreover, by incorporating the metabolic pathway of Ro 47-8634 to M4 into the model, the hepatic disposition of bosentan and its three metabolites was successfully estimated. In hepatocyte toxicity studies, the cell viability of human hepatocytes decreased after exposure to Ro 47-8634, and the observed hepatotoxicity was diminished by pretreatment with tienilic acid (CYP2C9-specific inactivator). Pretreatment with 1-aminobenzotriazole (broad cytochrome P450 inactivator) also tended to maintain the cell viability. Furthermore, Ro 64-1056 showed hepatotoxicity in a concentration-dependent manner. These results suggest that Ro 64-1056 is directly involved in bosentan-induced liver injury partly because CYP2C9 specifically mediates hydroxylation of the t-butyl group of Ro 47-8634. Our findings demonstrate the usefulness of a quantitative modeling of hepatic disposition of drugs and metabolites in sandwich-cultured hepatocytes. In addition, the newly identified metabolic pathway may be an alternative route that can avoid Ro 64-1056-induced liver injury.

Abstract
There is significant evidence that the inducible cyclooxygenase isoform (COX-2) regulates the pericellular concentration of PGE2; however, the mechanism of the secretory process remains unclear. The present study, therefore, aimed to evaluate the role of prostaglandin transporter (OATP2A1) in PGE2 secretion from macrophages. Immunofluorescence staining for Oatp2a1 (Slco2a1) was primarily detected in cytoplasmic domains, and was partially co-localized with anti-PGE2 antibody, LysoTracker®, and anti-lysosome-associated membrane protein (Lamp) 1 antibody in murine macrophage-derived RAW264 cells and peritoneal macrophages (PMs). PGE2 uptake by subcellular fraction containing light lysosomes was reduced significantly in the presence of an OATP inhibitor and in Slco2a1(+/-) PMs. Secretion of PGE2 and lysosome-specific N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase was enhanced in activated macrophagic cells, and diminished significantly under the Ca(2+)-depleted condition. The amount of PGE2 secreted from lipopolysaccharide-activated Slco2a1(-/-) PMs was significantly lower than that from PMs from wild type (WT) mice. Expression of Cox-2 and 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-Pgdh) was unchanged between PMs from Slco2a1(-/-) and WT mice. These results suggest that OATP2A1 is involved in PGE2-loading into intracellular acidic compartments, including light lysosomes. Thus, OATP2A1 contributes to PGE2 secretion by macrophages via exocytosis induced by Ca(2+) influx, independently of PGE2 synthesis and metabolism.

Abstract
Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) chemotherapy with gemcitabine (GEM) is expected to be more effective and safer method to treat hepatic metastasis of pancreatic cancer compared with intravenous administration, because it affords higher tumor exposure with lower systemic exposure. Thus, a key issue for dose selection is the saturability of hepatic uptake of GEM. Therefore, we investigated GEM uptake in rat and human isolated hepatocytes. Hepatic GEM uptake involved high- and low-affinity saturable components with Km values of micromolar and millimolar order, respectively. The uptake was inhibited concentration dependently by S-(4-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (NBMPR) and was sodium-ion-independent, suggesting a contribution of equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENTs). The concentration dependence of uptake in the presence of 0.1 μM NBMPR showed a single low-affinity binding site. Therefore, the high- and low-affinity sites correspond to ENT1 and ENT2, respectively. Our results indicate hepatic extraction of GEM is predominantly mediated by the low-affinity site (hENT2), and at clinically relevant hepatic concentrations of GEM, hENT2-mediated uptake would not be completely saturated. This is critical for HAI, because saturation of hepatic uptake would result in a marked increase of GEM concentration in the peripheral circulation, abrogating the advantage of HAI over intravenous administration in terms of severe adverse events.

Abstract
Five-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is a prodrug to generate phototoxic protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) for photodynamic cancer therapy. It remains unclear how PPIX accumulates in cancer cells; therefore, we aimed to clarify determinant factors by assessing ALA uptake, PPIX biosynthesis, conversion of PPIX to heme (ferrochelatase activity), and PPIX efflux, independently, in 10 human cancer cell lines. ALA-induced PPIX accumulation was not correlated with ALA uptake clearance. ALA uptake rates were far greater than maximum conversion rates of ALA to PPIX in the five cell lines, where ALA uptake activity was detected. A negative correlation of PPIX accumulation with ferrochelatase activity was found, but not statistically significant among all cell lines. As PPIX accumulation was restored in MCF-7 and DU145 cells by adding an inhibitor of PPIX efflux transporter BCRP, a compartment model incorporating PPIX synthesis, ferrochelatase activity, and PPIX efflux, was established, and hybrid parameters (π index) calculated using the model were significantly correlated with ALA-induced PPIX accumulation (r = 0.90, p = 0.005). Accordingly, kinetic analyses indicate that ALA-induced PPIX levels are determined by the three processes of PPIX biosynthesis, conversion of PPIX to heme, and PPIX efflux, suggesting that π index is a useful to predict ALA-induced PPIX accumulation.

Abstract
TAS-102, which is effective for refractory metastatic colorectal cancer, is a combination drug of anticancer trifluridine (FTD; which is derived from pyrimidine nucleoside) and FTD-metabolizing enzyme inhibitor tipiracil hydrochloride (TPI) at a molecular ratio of 1:0.5. To evaluate the intestinal absorption mechanism of FTD, the uptake and transcellular transport of FTD by human small intestinal epithelial cell (HIEC) monolayer as a model of human intestinal epithelial cells was investigated. The uptake and membrane permeability of FTD by HIEC monolayers were saturable, Na(+) -dependent, and inhibited by nucleosides. These transport characteristics are mostly comparable with those of concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNTs). Moreover, the uptake of FTD by CNT1-expressing Xenopus oocytes was the highest among human CNT transporters. The obtained Km and Vmax values of FTD by CNT1 were 69.0 μM and 516 pmol/oocyte/30 min, respectively. The transcellular transport of FTD by Caco-2 cells, where CNT1 is heterologously expressed, from apical to basolateral side was greater than that by Mock cells. In conclusion, these results demonstrated that FTD exhibits high oral absorption by the contribution of human CNT1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES It has been reported that intestinal urate excretion is increased at chronic kidney disease (CKD) state. In this report, whether uremic toxins are involved in the upregulation of intestinal breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), an intestinal urate exporter, was examined. METHODS Uremic toxins that were increased at least 15-fold at CKD state were selected for investigation. Caco-2 cells were exposed to these uremic toxins at clinically relevant concentrations. mRNA was quantified by real-time PCR, and flow cytometry was utilized to measure BCRP protein and function in Caco-2 cells. Transcellular secretory transport of [(14) C]urate was determined utilizing Transwell studies after uremic toxin exposure. KEY FINDINGS Indoxyl sulfate (IS) treatment alone resulted in ∼ 3-fold increase in BCRP mRNA in Caco-2 cells. Membrane protein expression of BCRP in Caco-2 cells also was increased by 1.8-fold after treatment with IS. Intracellular accumulation of pheophorbide A, a selective BCRP substrate, was decreased by 22% after IS treatment for 3 days. Consistent with these findings, transcellular secretory transport of urate across Caco-2 cell monolayers was increased by 22%. CONCLUSION Intestinal urate secretion may be increased at CKD state partially by upregulation of intestinal BCRP by uremic toxins such as IS.

To elucidate the mechanism responsible for this reduction, SUA and the urinary excretion rate of uric acid (UE(UA)) were analysed after the oral administration of luseogliflozin, a SGLT2 inhibitor, to healthy subjects. After dosing, SUA decreased, and a negative correlation was observed between the SUA level and the UE(UA), suggesting that SUA decreased as a result of the increase in the UE(UA). The increase in UE(UA) was correlated with an increase in urinary D-glucose excretion, but not with the plasma luseogliflozin concentration. Additionally, in vitro transport experiments showed that luseogliflozin had no direct effect on the transporters involved in renal UA reabsorption. To explain that the increase in UE(UA) is likely due to glycosuria, the study focused on the facilitative glucose transporter 9 isoform 2 (GLUT9ΔN, SLC2A9b), which is expressed at the apical membrane of the kidney tubular cells and transports both UA and D-glucose. It was observed that the efflux of [(14) C]UA in Xenopus oocytes expressing the GLUT9 isoform 2 was trans-stimulated by 10 mm D-glucose, a high concentration of glucose that existed under SGLT2 inhibition. On the other hand, the uptake of [(14) C]UA by oocytes was cis-inhibited by 100 mm D-glucose, a concentration assumed to exist in collecting ducts. In conclusion, it was demonstrated that the UE(UA) could potentially be increased by luseogliflozin-induced glycosuria, with alterations of UA transport activity because of urinary glucose.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In clinical hepatobiliary scintigraphy, (99m)Tc-N-pyridoxyl-5-methyltryptophan ((99m)Tc-PMT) is an effective radiotracer among the (99m)Tc-pyridoxylaminates. However, the mechanisms of human hepatic uptake and bile excretion transport of (99m)Tc-PMT have not been determined. We thus investigated the transport mechanisms of human hepatic uptake and bile excretion in hepatobiliary scintigraphy with (99m)Tc-PMT. METHODS Four solute carrier (SLC) transporters involved in hepatic uptake were evaluated using human embryonic kidney (HEK) and HeLa cells with high expression of SLC transporters (organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, organic anion transporters (OAT)2 and organic cation transporters (OCT)1) after 5 min of (99m)Tc-PMT incubation. Metabolic analysis of (99m)Tc-PMT was performed using pooled human liver S9. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters for bile excretion were examined using hepatic ABC transporter vesicles human expressing multiple drug resistance 1 (MDR1), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2), breast cancer resistance protein or bile salt export pump. (99m)Tc-PMT was incubated for 1, 3 and 5 min with ATP or adenosine monophosphate and these vesicles. SPECT scans were performed in normal and Eisai hyperbilirubinemic (EHBR) model rats, deficient in Mrp2 transporters, without and with verapamil (rat Mdr1 and human MDR1 inhibitor) after intravenous injection of (99m)Tc-PMT. RESULTS Uptake of (99m)Tc-PMT in HEK293/OATP1B1 and HeLa/OATP1B3 was significantly higher than that in HEK293- and HeLa-mock cells. (99m)Tc-PMT was not metabolized in the human liver S9. In vesicles with high expression of ABC transporters, uptake of MDR1 or MRP2 was significantly higher at all incubation times. Bile excretion of (99m)Tc-PMT was also identified by comparison between normal and EHBR rats with and without verapamil on in-vivo imaging. CONCLUSIONS Human hepatic uptake of (99m)Tc-PMT was transferred by OATP1B1 and OATP1B3, and excretion into bile canaliculi via MDR1 and MRP2. (99m)Tc-PMT hepatobiliary scintigraphy may be a useful ligand as a noninvasive method of visualizing and quantifying hepatobiliary transporter functionality, which could predict drug pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
In recent years, it has become increasingly important to test the safety of circulating metabolites of novel drugs as part of drug discovery and development programs. Accordingly, it is essential to develop suitable methods for identifying the major metabolites and their disposition in animal species and in humans. Mycophenolic acid (MPA), a selective inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitor, is metabolized by glucuronidation and enterohepatic circulation of MPA-glucuronides is an important factor in the continuous systemic exposure of MPA. In humans, about 90% of the administered MPA dose is finally excreted as MPA phenyl-glucuronide (MPAG) in urine. Notably, the plasma concentration of MPAG is much higher than that of MPA. These factors suggest that, after its formation in hepatocytes, MPAG is excreted into bile and is also transported across the basolateral membrane to enter the circulation. In the present study, we performed metabolic/hepatobiliary transport studies of MPA and MPAG using sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes (SCHH) and constructed mathematical models of their hepatic disposition. We also performed vesicular transport studies to identify which human multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) are involved in the transport of MPAG from hepatocytes. MPAG was a preferred substrate for the biliary excretion transporter MRP2 and the hepatic basolateral transporters MRP3 and MRP4 in conventional and metabolic/hepatobiliary transport studies using SCHH and vesicular transport studies using human MRP-expressing membrane vesicles. The resulting mathematical model suggested that the basolateral transport plays an important role in the hepatic disposition of MPAG formed in hepatocytes. Our findings suggest that mathematical modeling of metabolic/hepatobiliary transport studies using SCH will provide useful information for determining the fate of metabolites formed in hepatocytes.
