Abstract
Purpose Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) limits the xenobiotic entry from the systemic blood stream to the eye. RPE surface transporters can be important in ocular drug distribution, but it has been unclear whether they are expressed on the apical, basal, or both cellular surfaces. In this paper, we provide quantitative comparison of apical and basolateral RPE surface proteomes. Methods We separated the apical and basolateral membranes of differentiated human fetal RPE (hfRPE) cells by combining apical membrane peeling and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The membrane fractions were analyzed with quantitative targeted absolute proteomics (QTAP) and sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS) to reveal the membrane protein localization on the RPE cell surfaces. We quantitated 15 transporters in unfractionated RPE cells and scaled their expression to tissue level. Results Several proteins involved in visual cycle, cell adhesion, and ion and nutrient transport were expressed on the hfRPE plasma membranes. Most drug transporters showed similar abundance on both RPE surfaces, whereas large neutral amino acids transporter 1 (LAT1), p-glycoprotein (P-gp), and monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) showed modest apical enrichment. Many solute carriers (SLC) that are potential prodrug targets were present on both cellular surfaces, whereas putative sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporter 7 (SNAT7) and riboflavin transporter (RFT3) were enriched on the basolateral and sodium- and chloride-dependent neutral and basic amino acid transporter (ATB0+) on the apical membrane. Conclusions Comprehensive quantitative information of the RPE surface proteomes was reported for the first time. The scientific community can use the data to further increase understanding of the RPE functions. In addition, we provide insights for transporter protein localization in the human RPE and the significance for ocular pharmacokinetics.

A novel mass spectrometry method for the absolute quantification of several cytochrome P450 and uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes in the human liver. Anal Bioanal Chem 2020; 412:1729-1740. [PMID: 32030490 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-020-02445-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2019] [Revised: 12/22/2019] [Accepted: 01/21/2020] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) and 5'-diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) are the two major families of drug-metabolizing enzymes in the human liver microsome (HLM). As a result of their frequent abundance fluctuation among populations, the accurate quantification of these enzymes in different individuals is important for designing patient-specific dosage regimens in the framework of precision medicine. The preparation and quantification of internal standards is an essential step for the quantitative analysis of enzymes. However, the commonly employed stable isotope labeling-based strategy (QconCAT) suffers from requiring very expensive isotopic reagents, tedious experimental procedures, and long labeling times. Furthermore, arginine-to-proline conversion during metabolic isotopic labeling compromises the quantification accuracy. Therefore, we present a new strategy that replaces stable isotope-labeled amino acids with lanthanide labeling for the preparation and quantification of QconCAT internal standard peptides, which leads to a threefold reduction in the reagent costs and a fivefold reduction in the time consumed. The absolute amount of trypsin-digested QconCAT peptides can be obtained by lanthanide labeling and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) analysis with a high quantification accuracy (%RE < 20%). By taking advantage of the highly selective and facile ICP-OES procedure and multiplexed large-scale absolute target protein quantification using biological mass spectrometry, this strategy was successfully used for the absolute quantification of drug-metabolizing enzymes. We obtained good linearity (correlation coefficient > 0.95) over concentrations spanning 2.5 orders of magnitude with improved sensitivity (limit of quantification = 2 fmol) in nine HLM samples, indicating the potential of this method for large-scale absolute target protein quantification in clinical samples.

Abstract
The levels of drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) and transporter proteins in the human intestine are pertinent to determine oral drug bioavailability. Despite the paucity of reports on such measurements, it is well recognized that these values are essential for translating in vitro data on drug metabolism and transport to predict drug disposition in gut wall. In the current study, clinically relevant DMEs [cytochrome P450 (P450) and uridine 5′-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)] and drug transporters were quantified in total mucosal protein preparations from the human jejunum (n = 4) and ileum (n = 12) using quantification concatemer–based targeted proteomics. In contrast to previous reports, UGT2B15 and organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1 (OATP1A2) were quantifiable in all our samples. Overall, no significant disparities in protein expression were observed between jejunum and ileum. Relative mRNA expression for drug transporters did not correlate with the abundance of their cognate protein, except for P-glycoprotein 1 (P-gp) and organic solute transporter subunit alpha (OST-α), highlighting the limitations of RNA as a surrogate for protein expression in dynamic tissues with high turnover. Intercorrelations were found within P450 [2C9-2C19 (P = 0.002, R2 = 0.63), 2C9–2J2 (P = 0.004, R2 = 0.40), 2D6-2J2 (P = 0.002, R2 = 0.50)] and UGT [1A1-2B7 (P = 0.02, R2 = 0.87)] family of enzymes. There were also correlations between P-gp and several other proteins [OST-α (P < 0.0001, R2 = 0.77), UGT1A6 (P = 0.009, R2 = 0.38), and CYP3A4 (P = 0.007, R2 = 0.30)]. Incorporating such correlations into building virtual populations is crucial for obtaining plausible characteristics of simulated individuals.

Abstract
Organic anion transporters (OATs) and organic anion transporter polypeptides (OATPs) are classified within two SLC superfamilies, namely, the SLC22A superfamily and the SLCO superfamily (formerly the SLC21A family), respectively. They are expressed in many tissues, such as the liver and kidney, and mediate the absorption and excretion of many endogenous and exogenous substances, including various drugs. Most are composed of 12 transmembrane polypeptide chains with the C-terminus and the N-terminus located in the cell cytoplasm. OATs and OATPs are abundantly expressed in the liver, where they mainly promote the uptake of various endogenous substrates such as bile acids and various exogenous drugs such as antifibrotic and anticancer drugs. However, differences in the locations of glycosylation sites, phosphorylation sites, and amino acids in the OAT and OATP structures lead to different substrates being transported to the liver, which ultimately results in their different roles in the liver. To date, few articles have addressed these aspects of OAT and OATP structures, and we study further the similarities and differences in their structures, tissue distribution, substrates, and roles in liver diseases.

Abstract
Liver, as a vital organ, is responsible for a wide range of biological functions to maintain homeostasis and any type of damages to hepatic tissue contributes to disease progression and death. Viral infection, trauma, carcinoma, alcohol misuse and inborn errors of metabolism are common causes of liver diseases are a severe known reason for leading to end-stage liver disease or liver failure. In either way, liver transplantation is the only treatment option which is, however, hampered by the increasing scarcity of organ donor. Over the past years, considerable efforts have been directed toward liver regeneration aiming at developing new approaches and methodologies to enhance the transplantation process. These approaches include producing decellularized scaffolds from the liver organ, 3D bio-printing system, and nano-based 3D scaffolds to simulate the native liver microenvironment. The application of small molecules and micro-RNAs and genetic manipulation in favor of hepatic differentiation of distinct stem cells could also be exploited. All of these strategies will help to facilitate the application of stem cells in human medicine. This article reviews the most recent strategies to generate a high amount of mature hepatocyte-like cells and updates current knowledge on liver regenerative medicine.

Abstract
It is now established that a drug's pharmacokinetics (PK) absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion (ADME) and drug-drug interaction (DDI) profile can be modulated by age, disease, and genotype. In order to facilitate subject phenotyping and clinical DDI assessment, therefore, various endogenous compounds (in plasma and urine) have been pursued as drug-metabolizing enzyme and transporter biomarkers. Compared with biomarkers, however, the topic of circulating extracellular vesicles as "liquid biopsy" has received little attention within the ADME community; most organs secrete nanovesicles (e.g., exosomes) into the blood that contain luminal "cargo" derived from the originating organ (proteins, messenger RNA, and microRNA). As such, ADME profiling of plasma exosomes could be leveraged to better define genotype-phenotype relationships and the study of ontogeny, disease, and complex DDIs. If methods to support the isolation of tissue-derived plasma exosomes are successfully developed and validated, it is envisioned that they will be used jointly with genotyping, biomarkers, and modeling tools to greatly progress translational PK-ADME-DDI science.

Abstract
While mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantification of small molecules has been successfully used for decades, targeted MS has only recently been used by the proteomics community to investigate clinical questions such as biomarker verification and validation. Targeted MS holds the promise of a paradigm shift in the quantitative determination of proteins. Nevertheless, targeted quantitative proteomics requires improvisation in making sample processing, instruments, and data analysis more accessible. In the backdrop of the genomic era reaching its zenith, certain questions arise: is the proteomic era about to come? If we are at the beginning of a new future for protein quantification, are we prepared to incorporate targeted proteomics at the benchside for basic research and at the bedside for the good of patients? Here, an overview of the knowledge required to perform targeted proteomics as well as its applications is provided. A special emphasis is placed on upcoming areas such as peptidomics, proteoform research, and mass spectrometry imaging, where the utilization of targeted proteomics is expected to bring forth new avenues. The limitations associated with the acceptance of this technique for mainstream usage are also highlighted. Also see the video abstract here https://youtu.be/mieB47B8gZw.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) has become essential for efficient and accurate quantification of proteins and proteomes and, thus, a key technology throughout all biosciences. However, validated MS methods are still scarce for meat quality research applications. The objective of this work was to develop and compare two targeted proteomic methods, namely, selected reaction monitoring (SRM) and sequential window acquisition of all theoretical spectra (SWATH), for the quantification of 11 bovine muscle proteins that may be indicators of meat color. Both methods require evaluation of spectra from proteotypic and quantotypic peptides, and we here report our evaluation of which peptides and MS parameters are best suited for robust quantification of these 11 proteins. We observed that the SRM approach provides better reproducibility, linearity, and sensitivity than SWATH and is therefore ideal for targeted quantification of low-abundance proteins, while the SWATH approach provides a more time-efficient method for targeted protein quantification of high-abundance proteins and, additionally, supports the search for novel biomarkers.

Knockdown of Orphan Transporter SLC22A18 Impairs Lipid Metabolism and Increases Invasiveness of HepG2 Cells. Pharm Res 2019; 36:39. [PMID: 30635741 DOI: 10.1007/s11095-018-2565-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2018] [Accepted: 12/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this work is to investigate the roles of solute carrier family 22 member 18 (SLC22A18) in lipid metabolism and in establishing the tumor phenotype of HepG2 cells. METHODS SLC22A18-knockdown HepG2 cells were established by stable transfection with shRNA. Protein expression levels were measured by quantitative proteomics and Western blot analysis. Cell growth was examined by cell counting kit. Accumulation of triglyceride-rich lipid droplets was measured by Oil-Red O staining. Cell migration and invasion were examined by Transwell assays. RESULTS SLC22A18-knockdown HepG2 cells accumulated triglyceride-rich lipid droplets and showed decreased expression levels of lysosomal/autophagic proteins, suggesting that lipid degradation is suppressed. Growth of HepG2 cells was decreased by SLC22A18 knockdown, but was restored by free fatty acid supplementation. In addition, SLC22A18 knockdown decreased the expression of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) and increased the invasion ability of HepG2 cells. Exogenous IGFBP-1 blocked the increase of invasion activity induced by SLC22A18 knockdown. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that suppression of SLC22A18 decreased the supply of intracellular free fatty acids from triglyceride-rich lipid droplets by impairing the lysosomal/autophagy degradation pathway and reduced the invasive activity of HepG2 cells by decreasing IGFBP-1 expression.

Abstract
Translating chemogenetic techniques from nonhuman primates to potential clinical applications has been complicated in part due to in vivo conversion of the chemogenetic actuator, clozapine N-oxide (CNO), to its pharmacologically active parent compound, clozapine, a ligand with known side effects, including five boxed warnings from the Food and Drug Administration. Additionally, the limited solubility of CNO requires high concentrations of potentially toxic detergents such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). To address these concerns, pharmacokinetic profiling of commercially available CNO in DMSO (CNO-DMSO, 10% v/v DMSO in saline) and a water-soluble salt preparation (CNO-HCl, saline) was conducted in rhesus macaques. A time course of blood plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of CNO and clozapine was conducted (30-240 minutes post-administration) following a range of doses (3-10 mg/kg, i.m. and/or i.v.) of CNO-DMSO or CNO-HCl. CNO-HCl resulted in 6- to 7-fold higher plasma concentrations of CNO compared to CNO-DMSO, and relatively less clozapine (3%-5% clozapine/CNO in the CNO-DMSO group and 0.5%-1.5% clozapine/CNO in the CNO-HCl group). Both groups had large between-subjects variability, pointing to the necessity of performing individual CNO pharmacokinetic studies prior to further experimentation. The ratio of CNO measured in the CSF was between 2% and 6% of that measured in the plasma and did not differ across drug preparation, indicating that CSF concentrations may be approximated from plasma samples. In conclusion, CNO-HCl demonstrated improved bioavailability compared with CNO-DMSO with less conversion to clozapine. Further investigation is needed to determine if brain concentrations of clozapine following CNO-HCl administration are pharmacologically active at off-target monoaminergic receptor systems in the primate brain.

Abstract
A potential CYP4B1 suicide gene application in engineered T-cell treatment of blood cancers has revived interest in the use of 4-ipomeanol (IPO) in gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy, in which disposition of the administered compound may be critical. IPO contains one chiral center at the carbon bearing a secondary alcohol group; it was of interest to determine the effect of stereochemistry on 1) CYP4B1-mediated bioactivation and 2) (UGT)-mediated glucuronidation. First, (R)-IPO and (S)-IPO were synthesized and used to assess cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells expressing rabbit CYP4B1 and re-engineered human CYP4B1, where the enantiomers were found to be equipotent. Next, a sensitive UPLC-MS/MS assay was developed to measure the IPO-glucuronide diastereomers and product stereoselectivity in human tissue microsomes. Human liver and kidney microsomes generated (R)- and (S)-IPO-glucuronide diastereomers in ratios of 57:43 and 79:21, respectively. In a panel of 13 recombinantly expressed UGTs, UGT1A9 and UGT2B7 were the major isoforms responsible for IPO glucuronidation. (R)-IPO-glucuronide diastereoselectivity was apparent with each recombinant UGT, except UGT2B15 and UGT2B17, which favored the formation of (S)-IPO-glucuronide. Incubations with IPO and the UGT1A9-specific chemical inhibitor niflumic acid significantly decreased glucuronidation in human kidney, but only marginally in human liver microsomes, consistent with known tissue expression patterns of UGTs. We conclude that IPO glucuronidation in human kidney is mediated by UGT1A9 and UGT2B7. In human liver, it is mediated primarily by UGT2B7 and, to a lesser extent, UGT1A9 and UGT2B15. Overall, the lack of pronounced stereoselectivity for IPO's bioactivation in CYP4B1-transfected HepG2 cells, or for hepatic glucuronidation, suggests the racemate is an appropriate choice for use in suicide gene therapies.

Abstract
The oral bioavailability of many drugs is highly influenced not only by hepatic but also by intestinal biotransformation. To estimate the impact of intestinal phase I and II metabolism on oral drug absorption, knowledge on the expression levels of the respective enzymes is an essential prerequisite. In addition, the potential interplay of metabolism and transport contributes to drug disposition. Both mechanisms may be subjected to coordinative regulation by nuclear receptors, leading to unwanted drug-drug interactions due to induction of intestinal metabolism and transport. Thus, it was the aim of this study to comprehensively analyse the regional expression of clinically relevant phase I and II enzymes along the entire human intestine and to correlate these data to expression data of drug transporters and nuclear receptors of pharmacokinetic relevance. Gene expression of 11 drug-metabolizing enzymes (CYP2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 3A4, 3A5, SULT1A, UGT1A, UGT2B7, UGT2B15) was studied in duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon from six organ donors by real-time RT-PCR. Enzyme expression was correlated with expression data of the nuclear receptors PXR, CAR and FXR as well as drug transporters observed in the same cohort. Intestinal expression of all studied metabolizing enzymes was significantly higher in the small intestine compared to colonic tissue. CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5, SULT1A, UGT1A and UGT2B7 expression increased from the duodenum to jejunum but was markedly lower in the ileum. In the small intestine, that is, the predominant site of drug absorption, the highest expression has been observed for CYP3A4, CYP2C9, SULT1A and UGT1A. In addition, significant correlations were found between several enzymes and PXR as well as ABC transporters in the small intestine. In conclusion, the observed substantial site-dependent intestinal expression of several enzymes may explain regional differences in intestinal drug absorption. The detected correlations between intestinal enzymes, transporters and nuclear receptors provide indirect evidence for their coordinative expression, regulation and function in the human small intestine.

Abstract
Intestinal disposition of small molecules involves interplay of drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), transporters, and host-microbiome interactions, which has spurred the development of in vitro intestinal models derived from primary tissue sources. Such models have been bioengineered from intestinal crypts, mucosal extracts, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived organoids, and human intestinal tissue. This minireview discusses the utility and limitations of these human-derived models in support of small molecule drug metabolism and disposition. Enteroids from human intestinal crypts, organoids derived from iPSCs using growth factors or small molecule compounds, and enterocytes extracted from mucosal scrapings show key absorptive cell morphology while are limited in quantitative applications due to the lack of accessibility to the apical compartment, the lack of monolayers, or low expression of key DMEs, transporters, and nuclear hormone receptors. Despite morphogenesis to epithelial cells, similar challenges have been reported by more advanced technologies that have explored the impact of flow and mechanical stretch on proliferation and differentiation of Caco-2 cells. Most recently, bioengineered human intestinal epithelial or ileal cells have overcome many of the challenges, as the DME and transporter expression pattern resembles that of native intestinal tissue. Engineering advances may improve such models to support longer-term applications and meet end-user needs. Biochemical characterization and transcriptomic, proteomic, and functional endpoints of emerging novel intestinal models, when referenced to native human tissue, can provide greater confidence and increased utility in drug discovery and development.

Abstract
This white paper provides updated International Transporter Consortium (ITC) recommendations on transporters that are important in drug development following the 3rd ITC workshop. New additions include prospective evaluation of organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) and retrospective evaluation of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)2B1 because of their important roles in drug absorption, disposition, and effects. For the first time, the ITC underscores the importance of transporters involved in drug-induced vitamin deficiency (THTR2) and those involved in the disposition of biomarkers of organ function (OAT2 and bile acid transporters).

Abstract
Organic anion transporter (OAT) 2 and OAT7 were recently shown to be involved in the hepatic uptake of drugs; however, there is limited understanding of the population variability in the expression of these transporters in liver. There is also a need to derive relative expression-based scaling factors (REFs) that can be used to bridge in vitro functional data to the in vivo drug disposition. To this end, we quantified OAT2 and OAT7 surrogate peptide abundance in a large number of human liver tissue samples ( n = 52), as well as several single-donor cryopreserved human hepatocyte lots ( n = 30) by a novel, validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. The average surrogate peptide expression of OAT2 and OAT7 in the liver samples was 1.52 ± 0.57 and 4.63 ± 1.58 fmol/μg membrane protein, respectively. While we noted statistically significant differences ( p < 0.05) in hepatocyte and liver tissue abundances for both OAT2 and OAT7, the differences were relatively small (1.8- and 1.5-fold difference in median values, respectively). Large interindividual variability was noted in the hepatic expression of OAT2 (16-fold in liver tissue and 23-fold in hepatocytes). OAT7, on the other hand, showed less interindividual variability (4-fold) in the livers, but high variability for the hepatocyte lots (27-fold). A significant positive correlation in OAT2 and OAT7 expression was observed, but expression levels were neither associated with age nor sex. In conclusion, our data suggest marked interindividual variability in the hepatic expression of OAT2/7, which may contribute to the pharmacokinetic variability of their substrates. Because both transporters were less abundant in hepatocytes than livers, a REF-based approach is recommended when scaling in vitro hepatocyte transport data to predict hepatic drug clearance and liver exposure of OAT2/7 substrates.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), encoded by the MDR1 gene in humans and by the Mdr1a/1b genes in rodents, is expressed in numerous tissues and performs as an efflux pump to limit the distribution and absorption of many drugs. Owing to species differences of P-gp between humans and rodents, it is difficult to predict the impact of P-gp on pharmacokinetics and the tissue distribution of P-gp substrates in humans from the results of animal experiments. Therefore, we generated a novel P-gp humanized mouse model by using a mouse artificial chromosome (MAC) vector [designated human MDR1-MAC (hMDR1-MAC) mice]. The results showed that hMDR1 mRNA was expressed in various tissues of hMDR1-MAC mice. Furthermore, the expression of human P-gp was detected in the brain capillary fraction and plasma membrane fraction of intestinal epithelial cells isolated from hMDR1-MAC mice, although the expression levels of intestinal P-gp were extremely low. Thus, we evaluated the function of human P-gp at the blood-brain barrier of hMDR1-MAC mice. The brain-to-plasma ratios of P-gp substrates in hMDR1-MAC mice were much lower than those in Mdr1a/1b-knockout mice, and the brain-to-plasma ratio of paclitaxel was significantly increased by pretreatment with a P-gp inhibitor in hMDR1-MAC mice. These results indicated that the hMDR1-MAC mice are the first P-gp humanized mice expressing functional human P-gp at the blood-brain barrier. This mouse is a promising model with which to evaluate species differences of P-gp between humans and mice in vivo and to estimate the brain distribution of drugs in humans while taking into account species differences of P-gp.

Abstract
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are made from a rolled single sheet of graphene with a diameter in the nanometer range. SWCNTs are potential carriers for drug delivery systems because antibodies or drugs can be loaded on their surface; however, their effect on the activities of cytochrome P450 (CYP) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of two kinds of SWCNTs with different lengths (FH-P- and SO-SWCNTs) on human CYP activity. In addition, other nano-sized carbon materials, such as carbon black, fullerene-C60 , and fullerene-C70 were also evaluated to compare their effects on CYP activities. Ten CYP substrates (phenacetin, coumarin, bupropion, paclitaxel, tolbutamide, S-mephenytoin, dextromethorphan, chlorzoxazone, midazolam, and testosterone) were used. Testosterone 6β-hydroxylation and midazolam 1'-hydroxylation, which are catalysed by both CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 in liver microsomes, were decreased by 25% and 45%, respectively, in the presence of 0.1 mg/ml SO-SWCNT. Dextromethorphan O-demethylation, which is catalysed mainly by CYP2D6, was decreased by 40% in the presence of SO-SWCNT. Other CYP activities, however, were not attenuated by SO-SWCNT. FH-P-SWCNT, carbon black, fullerene-C60 , and fullerene-C70 at 0.1 mg/ml had no effect on CYP activities. The Ki values for testosterone 6β-hydroxylation, midazolam 1'-hydroxylation, and dextromethorphan O-demethylation in liver microsomes were 136, 34, and 56 μg/ml, respectively. SO-SWCNT was determined to be a competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP2D6. These results suggest that the effect of SO-SWCNT differs among CYP isoforms, and that the inhibition potency depends on the physicochemical properties of the nanocarbons.

Abstract
Human hepatic cell lines are widely used as an in vitro model for the study of drug metabolism and liver toxicity. However, the validity of this model is still a subject of debate because the expressions of various proteins in the cell lines, including drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), can differ significantly from those in human livers. In the present study, we first conducted an untargeted proteomics analysis of the microsomes of the cell lines HepG2, Hep3B, and Huh7, and compared them to human livers using a sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra (SWATH) method. Furthermore, high-resolution multiple reaction monitoring (MRM-HR), a targeted proteomic approach, was utilized to compare the expressions of pre-selected DMEs between human livers and the cell lines. In general, the SWATH quantifications were in good agreement with the MRM-HR analysis. Over 3000 protein groups were quantified in the cells and human livers, and the proteome profiles of human livers significantly differed from the cell lines. Among the 101 DMEs quantified with MRM-HR, most were expressed at substantially lower levels in the cell lines. Thus, appropriate caution must be exercised when using these cell lines for the study of hepatic drug metabolism and toxicity.

Abstract
Molecular biomarkers in blood are needed to aid the early diagnosis and clinical assessment of glioblastoma (GBM). Here, in order to identify biomarker candidates in plasma of GBM patients, we performed quantitative comparisons of the plasma proteomes of GBM patients (n = 14) and healthy controls (n = 15) using SWATH mass spectrometry analysis. The results were validated by means of quantitative targeted absolute proteomics analysis. As a result, we identified eight biomarker candidates for GBM (leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein (LRG1), complement component C9 (C9), C-reactive protein (CRP), alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (SERPINA3), apolipoprotein B-100 (APOB), gelsolin (GSN), Ig alpha-1 chain C region (IGHA1), and apolipoprotein A-IV (APOA4)). Among them, LRG1, C9, CRP, GSN, IGHA1, and APOA4 gave values of the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of greater than 0.80. To investigate the relationships between the biomarker candidates and GBM biology, we examined correlations between plasma concentrations of biomarker candidates and clinical presentation (tumor size, progression-free survival time, or overall survival time) in GBM patients. The plasma concentrations of LRG1, CRP, and C9 showed significant positive correlations with tumor size (R2 = 0.534, 0.495, and 0.452, respectively).

Abstract
The enormous diversity of proteoforms produces tremendous complexity within cellular proteomes, facilitates intricate networks of molecular interactions, and constitutes a formidable analytical challenge for biomedical researchers. Currently, quantitative whole-proteome profiling often relies on non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), which samples proteoforms broadly, but can suffer from lower accuracy, sensitivity, and reproducibility compared with targeted LC-MS. Recent advances in bottom-up proteomics using targeted LC-MS have enabled previously unachievable identification and quantification of target proteins and posttranslational modifications within complex samples. Consequently, targeted LC-MS is rapidly advancing biomedical research, especially systems biology research in diverse areas that include proteogenomics, interactomics, kinomics, and biological pathway modeling. With the recent development of targeted LC-MS assays for nearly the entire human proteome, targeted LC-MS is positioned to enable quantitative proteomic profiling of unprecedented quality and accessibility to support fundamental and clinical research. Here we review recent applications of bottom-up proteomics using targeted LC-MS for systems biology research. SIGNIFICANCE: Advances in targeted proteomics are rapidly advancing systems biology research. Recent applications include systems-level investigations focused on posttranslational modifications (such as phosphoproteomics), protein conformation, protein-protein interaction, kinomics, proteogenomics, and metabolic and signaling pathways. Notably, absolute quantification of metabolic and signaling pathway proteins has enabled accurate pathway modeling and engineering. Integration of targeted proteomics with other technologies, such as RNA-seq, has facilitated diverse research such as the identification of hundreds of "missing" human proteins (genes and transcripts that appear to encode proteins but direct experimental evidence was lacking).

Kuno T, Hirayama-Kurogi M, Ito S, Ohtsuki S. Reduction in hepatic secondary bile acids caused by short-term antibiotic-induced dysbiosis decreases mouse serum glucose and triglyceride levels. Sci Rep 2018; 8:1253. [PMID: 29352187 PMCID: PMC5775293 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-19545-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 69] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2017] [Accepted: 01/03/2018] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Antibiotic-caused changes in intestinal flora (dysbiosis) can have various effects on the host. Secondary bile acids produced by intestinal bacteria are ligands for specific nuclear receptors, which regulate glucose, lipid, and drug metabolism in the liver. The present study aimed to clarify the effect of changes in secondary bile acids caused by antibiotic-induced dysbiosis on the host physiology, especially glucose, lipid, and drug metabolism. After oral administration of non-absorbable antibiotics for 5 days, decreased amounts of secondary bile acid-producing bacteria in faeces and a reduction in secondary bile acid [lithocholic acid (LCA) and deoxycholic acid (DCA)] levels in the liver were observed. Serum glucose and triglyceride levels were also decreased, and these decreases were reversed by LCA and DCA supplementation. Quantitative proteomics demonstrated that the expression levels of proteins involved in glycogen metabolism, cholesterol, bile acid biosynthesis, and drug metabolism (Cyp2b10, Cyp3a25, and Cyp51a1) were altered in the liver in dysbiosis, and these changes were reversed by LCA and DCA supplementation. These results suggested that secondary bile acid-producing bacteria contribute to the homeostasis of glucose and triglyceride levels and drug metabolism in the host, and have potential as therapeutic targets for treating metabolic disease.

Abstract
Serum creatinine (SCr) levels rise during trimethoprim therapy for infectious diseases. This study aimed to investigate whether the elevation of SCr can be quantitatively explained using a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model incorporating inhibition by trimethoprim on tubular secretion of creatinine via renal transporters such as organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), OCT3, multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE1), and MATE2-K. Firstly, pharmacokinetic parameters in the PBPK model of trimethoprim were determined to reproduce the blood concentration profile after a single intravenous and oral administration of trimethoprim in healthy subjects. The model was verified with datasets of both cumulative urinary excretions after a single administration and the blood concentration profile after repeated oral administration. The pharmacokinetic model of creatinine consisted of the creatinine synthesis rate, distribution volume, and creatinine clearance (CLcre), including tubular secretion via each transporter. When combining the models for trimethoprim and creatinine, the predicted increments in SCr from baseline were 29.0%, 39.5%, and 25.8% at trimethoprim dosages of 5 mg/kg (b.i.d.), 5 mg/kg (q.i.d.), and 200 mg (b.i.d.), respectively, which were comparable with the observed values. The present model analysis enabled us to quantitatively explain increments in SCr during trimethoprim treatment by its inhibition of renal transporters.

Abstract
We describe a sequential windowed acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion mass spectra (SWATH-MS) based method for label-free, simultaneous, relative quantification of drug metabolism enzymes in human liver microsomes (HLM; n = 78). In-solution tryptic digestion was aided by a pressure cycling method, which allowed a 90 min incubation time, a significant reduction over classical protocols (12-18 h). Digested peptides were separated on an Acquity UHPLC Peptide BEH C18 column using a 60 min gradient method at a flow rate of 0.100 mL/min. The quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (ESI-QTOFMS) was operated in positive electrospray ionization mode, and data were acquired by data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and SWATH-MSALL mode. A pooled HLM sample was used as a quality control to evaluate variability in digestion and quantification among different batches, and inter-batch %CV for various proteins was between 3.1 and 7.8%. Spectral library generated from the DDA data identified 1855 distinct proteins and 25 681 distinct peptides at a 1% global false discovery rate (FDR). SWATH data were queried and analyzed for 10 major cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes using Skyline, a targeted data extraction software. Further, correlation analysis was performed between functional activity, protein, and mRNA expression for ten CYP enzymes. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between protein and activity for CYPs ranged from 0.314 (CYP2C19) to 0.767 (CYP2A6). A strong correlation was found between CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 abundance and activity determined using midazolam and testosterone (r > 0.600, p < 0.001). Protein-to-activity correlation was moderate (r > 0.400-0.600, p < 0.001) for CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 and significant but poor (r < 0.400, p < 0.05) for CYP2C8, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6. The findings suggest the suitability of SWATH-MS based method as a valuable and relatively fast analytical technique for relative quantification of proteins in complex biological samples. We also show that protein abundance is a better surrogate than mRNA to predict the activity of CYP activity.

Abstract
Protein quantification data on drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters (collectively referred as DMET proteins) in human tissues are useful in predicting interindividual variability in drug disposition. While targeted proteomics is an emerging technique for quantification of DMET proteins, the methodology involves significant technical challenges especially when multiple samples are analyzed in a single study over a long period of time. Therefore, it is important to thoroughly address the critical variables that could affect DMET protein quantification.

Abstract
Transcriptomic, proteomic, phosphoproteomic, and metabolomic analyses were combined to determine the role of pregnane X receptor (PXR) in nongenotoxic signaling and energy homeostasis in liver after rats were repeatedly orally dosed with the PXR agonist pregnenolone carbonitrile (PCN) for 7 days. Analyses of mRNAs and proteins in the supernatant, membrane, and cytosolic fractions of enlarged liver homogenates showed diverse expression profiles. Gene set enrichment analysis showed that the synchronous increase in mRNAs and proteins involved in chemical carcinogenesis and the response to drug was possibly mediated by the PXR pathway and proteasome core complex assembly was possibly mediated by the Nrf2 pathway. In addition, levels of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen and involved in the acute-phase response showed specific increase with no change in mRNA level, and those composed of the mitochondrial inner membrane showed specific decrease. The analysis of phosphorylated peptides of poly(A) RNA binding proteins showed a decrease in phosphorylation, possibly by casein kinase 2, which may be related to the regulation of protein expression. Proteins involved in insulin signaling pathways showed an increase in phosphorylation, possibly by protein kinase A, and those involved in apoptosis showed a decrease. Metabolomic analysis suggested the activation of the pentose phosphate and anaerobic glycolysis pathways and the increase of amino acid and fatty acid levels, as occurs in the Warburg effect. In conclusion, the results of combined analyses suggest that PXR's effects are due to transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation with alteration of nongenotoxic signaling pathways and energy homeostasis.

Abstract
With increasing knowledge on the role of hepatic transporters in drug disposition, numerous efforts have been described to quantify the expression of human hepatic transporters. However, reported quantitative proteomic approaches often require long analysis times. Additionally, greater assay sensitivity is still necessary for less abundant transporters or limited quantity of samples (e.g. hepatocytes and liver tissue). In the present study, an LC-MS/MS method for rapid and simultaneous quantification of 12 hepatic transporters (BCRP, BSEP, MATE1, MRP2, MRP3, MRP4, NTCP, OATP1B1, 1B3, 2B1, OCT1, and P-gp) was developed. Using a high LC flow rate (1.5mL/min) and fast LC gradient (4min total cycle time), the run time was markedly reduced to 4min, which was much shorter than most previously published assays. Chromatographic separation was achieved using ACE UltraCore SuperC18 50mm×2.1mm 5-μm HPLC column. In addition, greater analytical sensitivity was achieved with both high LC flow rate/fast LC gradient and post-column infusion of ethylene glycol. The on-column LLOQ for signature peptides in this method ranged from 0.194 to 0.846 femtomoles. The impact of five protein solubilizers, including extraction buffer II of ProteoExtract Native Membrane Protein Extraction Kit, 3% (w/v) sodium deoxycholate, 20% (v/v) Invitrosol, 0.2% (w/v) RapiGest SF, and 10% (w/v) formamide on total membrane protein extraction and trypsin digestion was investigated. Sodium deoxycholate was chosen because of good total membrane protein extraction and trypsin digestion efficiency, as well as no significant MS interference. Good precision (within 15% coefficient of variation) and accuracy (within ±15% bias), and inter-day trypsin digestion efficiency (within 28% coefficient of variation) was observed for quality controls. This method can quantify human hepatic transporter expression in a high-throughput manner and due to the increased sensitivity can be used to investigate the down-regulation of hepatic transporter protein (e.g., different ethnic groups and liver disease patients).

Abstract
Although oral drug administration is currently the favorable route of administration, intestinal drug absorption is challenged by several highly variable and poorly predictable processes such as gastrointestinal motility, intestinal drug solubility and intestinal metabolism. One further determinant identified and characterized during the last two decades is the intestinal drug transport that is mediated by several transmembrane proteins such as P-gp, BCRP, PEPT1 and OATP2B1. It is well-established that intestinal transporters can affect oral absorption of many drugs in a significant manner either by facilitating their cellular uptake or by pumping them back to gut lumen, which limits their oral bioavailability. Their functional relevance becomes even more apparent in cases of unwanted drug-drug interactions when concomitantly given drugs that cause transporter induction or inhibition, which in turn leads to increased or decreased drug exposure. The longitudinal expression of several intestinal transporters is not homogeneous along the human intestine, which may have functional implications on the preferable site of intestinal drug absorption. Besides the knowledge about the expression of pharmacologically relevant transporters in human intestinal tissue, their exact localization on the apical or basolateral membrane of enterocytes is also of interest but in several cases debatable. Finally, there is obviously a coordinative interplay of intestinal transporters (apical-basolateral), intestinal enzymes and transporters as well as intestinal and hepatic transporters. This review aims to give an updated overview about the expression, localization, regulation and function of clinically relevant transporter proteins in the human intestine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION While selected/multiple-reaction monitoring (SRM or MRM) is considered the gold standard for quantitative protein measurement, emerging data-independent acquisition (DIA) using high-resolution scans have opened a new dimension of high-throughput, comprehensive quantitative proteomics. These newer methodologies are particularly well suited for discovery of biomarker candidates from human disease samples, and for investigating and understanding human disease pathways. Areas covered: This article reviews the current state of targeted and untargeted DIA mass spectrometry-based proteomic workflows, including SRM, parallel-reaction monitoring (PRM) and untargeted DIA (e.g., SWATH). Corresponding bioinformatics strategies, as well as application in biological and clinical studies are presented. Expert commentary: Nascent application of highly-multiplexed untargeted DIA, such as SWATH, for accurate protein quantification from clinically relevant and disease-related samples shows great potential to comprehensively investigate biomarker candidates and understand disease.

Abstract
We report in this work successful isolation and cryopreservation of enterocytes from human small intestine. The enterocytes were isolated by enzyme digestion of the intestinal lumen, followed by partial purification via differential centrifugation. The enterocytes were cryopreserved directly after isolation without culturing to maximize retention of in vivo drug-metabolizing enzyme activities. Post-thaw viability of the cryopreserved enterocytes was consistently over 80% based on trypan blue exclusion. Cryopreserved enterocytes pooled from eight donors (four male and four female) were evaluated for their metabolism of 14 pathway-selective substrates: CYP1A2 (phenacetin hydroxylation), CYP2A6 (coumarin 7-hydroxylation), CYP2B6 (bupropion hydroxylation), CYP2C8 (paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylation), CYP2C9 (diclofenac 4-hydroxylation), CYP2C19 (S-mephenytoin 4-hydroxylation), CYP2D6 (dextromethorphan hydroxylation), CYP2E1 (chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation), CYP3A4 (midazolam 1'-hydroxylation and testosterone 6β-hydroxylation), CYP2J2 (astemizole O-demethylation), UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT; 7-hydroxycoumarin glucuronidation), sulfotransferase (SULT; 7-hydroxycoumarin sulfation), and carboxylesterase 2 (CES2; irinotecan hydrolysis) activities. Quantifiable activities were observed for CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, CYPJ2, CES2, UGT, and SULT, but not for CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, and CYP2D6. Enterocytes from all 24 donors were then individually evaluated for the quantifiable drug metabolism pathways. All demonstrated quantifiable activities with the expected individual variations. Our results suggest that cryopreserved human enterocytes represent a physiologically relevant and convenient in vitro experimental system for the evaluation of intestinal metabolism, akin to cryopreserved human hepatocytes for hepatic metabolism.
