Raza A, Williams AR, Abeer MM. Importance of ABC Transporters in the Survival of Parasitic Nematodes and the Prospect for the Development of Novel Control Strategies. Pathogens 2023; 12:755.

Abstract
ABC transporters, a family of ATP-dependent transmembrane proteins, are responsible for the active transport of a wide range of molecules across cell membranes, including drugs, toxins, and nutrients. Nematodes possess a great diversity of ABC transporters; however, only P-glycoproteins have been well-characterized compared to other classes. The ABC transport proteins have been implicated in developing resistance to various classes of anthelmintic drugs in parasitic nematodes; their role in plant and human parasitic nematodes still needs further investigation. Therefore, ABC transport proteins offer a potential opportunity to develop nematode control strategies. Multidrug resistance inhibitors are becoming more attractive for controlling nematodes due to their potential to increase drug efficacy in two ways: (i) by limiting drug efflux from nematodes, thereby increasing the amount of drug that reaches its target site, and (ii) by reducing drug excretion by host animals, thereby enhancing drug bioavailability. This article reviews the role of ABC transporters in the survival of parasitic nematodes, including the genes involved, their regulation and physiological roles, as well as recent developments in their characterization. It also discusses the association of ABC transporters with anthelmintic resistance and the possibility of targeting them with next-generation inhibitors or nutraceuticals (e.g., polyphenols) to control parasitic infections.

ABCB1 and ABCC1 Function during TGF-β-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition: Relationship between Multidrug Resistance and Tumor Progression. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076046. [PMID: 37047018 PMCID: PMC10093952 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) and induction of metastasis are some of the puzzles encountered during cancer chemotherapy. The MDR phenotype is associated with overexpression of ABC transporters, involved in drug efflux. Metastasis originates from the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), in which cells acquire a migratory phenotype, invading new tissues. ABC transporters' role during EMT is still elusive, though cells undergoing EMT exhibit enhanced ABCB1 expression. We demonstrated increased ABCB1 expression but no change in activity after TGF-β-induced EMT in A549 cells. Moreover, ABCB1 inhibition by verapamil increased snail and fibronectin expression, an event associated with upregulation of ABCB1, evidencing coincident cell signaling pathways leading to ABCB1 and EMT-related markers transcription, rather than a direct effect of transport. Additionally, for the first time, increased ABCC1 expression and activity was observed after EMT, and use of ABCC1 inhibitors partially inhibited EMT-marker snail, although increased ABCC1 function translated into collateral sensibility to daunorubicin. More investigations must be done to evaluate the real benefits that the gain of ABC transporters might have on the process of metastasis. Considering ABCC1 is involved in the stress response, affecting intracellular GSH content and drug detoxification, this transporter could be used as a therapeutic target in cancer cells undergoing EMT.

Expression of Chemoresistance-Associated ABC Proteins in Hepatobiliary, Pancreatic and Gastrointestinal Cancers. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14143524. [PMID: 35884584 PMCID: PMC9320734 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14143524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary One-third of the approximately 10 million deaths yearly caused by cancer worldwide are due to hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and gastrointestinal tumors. One primary reason for this high mortality is the lack of response of these cancers to pharmacological treatment. More than 100 genes have been identified as responsible for seven mechanisms of chemoresistance, but only a few of them play a critical role. These include ABC proteins (mainly MDR1, MRP1-6, and BCRP), whose expression pattern greatly determines the individual sensitivity of each tumor to pharmacotherapy. Abstract Hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and gastrointestinal cancers account for 36% of the ten million deaths caused by cancer worldwide every year. The two main reasons for this high mortality are their late diagnosis and their high refractoriness to pharmacological treatments, regardless of whether these are based on classical chemotherapeutic agents, targeted drugs, or newer immunomodulators. Mechanisms of chemoresistance (MOC) defining the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype of each tumor depend on the synergic function of proteins encoded by more than one hundred genes classified into seven groups (MOC1-7). Among them, the efflux of active agents from cancer cells across the plasma membrane caused by members of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins (MOC-1b) plays a crucial role in determining tumor MDR. Although seven families of human ABC proteins are known, only a few pumps (mainly MDR1, MRP1-6, and BCRP) have been associated with reducing drug content and hence inducing chemoresistance in hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and gastrointestinal cancer cells. The present descriptive review, which compiles the updated information on the expression of these ABC proteins, will be helpful because there is still some confusion on the actual relevance of these pumps in response to pharmacological regimens currently used in treating these cancers. Moreover, we aim to define the MOC pattern on a tumor-by-tumor basis, even in a dynamic way, because it can vary during tumor progression and in response to chemotherapy. This information is indispensable for developing novel strategies for sensitization.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is an ATP-dependent efflux transporter, and responsible for the transport of a broad spectrum of xenobiotics, toxins, and physiological substrates across the plasma membrane. As an efflux pump, it plays a significant role in the absorption and disposition of drugs including anticancer drugs, antivirals, antimalarials, and antibiotics and their metabolites across physiological barriers in cells. MRP1 is also known to aid in the regulation of several physiological processes such as redox homeostasis, steroid metabolism, and tissue defense. However, its overexpression has been reported to be a key clinical marker associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) of several types of cancers including lung cancer, childhood neuroblastoma, breast and prostate carcinomas, often resulting in a higher risk of treatment failure and shortened survival rates in cancer patients. Aside MDR, overexpression of MRP1 is also implicated in the development of neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. Due to the cellular importance of MRP1, the identification and biochemical/molecular characterization of modulators of MRP1 activity and expression levels are of key interest to cancer research and beyond. This review primarily aims at highlighting the physiological and pharmacological importance of MRP1, known MRP1 modulators, current challenges encountered, and the potential benefits of conducting further research on the MRP1 transporter.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate pesticide, commonly detected in water and food. Despite CPF toxicity on aquatic species has been extensively studied, few studies analyze the effects of CPF on fish transcriptional pathways. The Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a nuclear receptor that is activated by binding to a wide variety of ligands and regulates the transcription of enzymes involved in the metabolism and transport of many endogenous and exogenous compounds. We evaluated the mRNA expression of PXR-regulated-genes (PXR, CYP3A27, CYP2K1, ABCB1, UGT, and ABCC2) in intestine and liver of the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, exposed in vivo to an environmentally relevant CPF concentration. Our results demonstrate that the expression of PXR and PXR-regulated genes is increased in O. mykiss liver and intestine upon exposure to CPF. Additionally, we evaluated the impact of CPF on other cellular pathway involved in xenobiotic metabolism, the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) pathway, and on the expression and activity of different biotransformation enzymes (CYP2M1, GST, FMO1, or cholinesterases (ChEs)). In contrast to PXR, the expression of AhR, and its target gene CYP1A, are reduced upon CPF exposure. Furthermore, ChE and CYP1A activities are significantly inhibited by CPF, in both the intestine and the liver. CPF activates the PXR pathway in O. mykiss in the intestine and liver, with a more profound effect in the intestine. Likewise, our results support regulatory crosstalk between PXR and AhR pathways, where the induction of PXR coincides with the downregulation of AhR-mediated CYP1A mRNA expression and activity in the intestine.

Abstract
Acquired multidrug resistance (MDR) in tumor diseases has repeatedly been associated with overexpression of ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABC-transporters) such as P-glycoprotein. Both in vitro and in vivo data suggest that these efflux transporters can cause MDR, albeit its actual relevance for clinical chemotherapy unresponsiveness remains uncertain. The overexpression can experimentally be achieved by exposure of tumor cells to cytotoxic drugs. For simplification, the drug-mediated transporter overexpression can be attributed to two opposite mechanisms: First, increased transcription of ABC-transporter genes mediated by nuclear receptors sensing the respective compound. Second, Darwinian selection of sub-clones intrinsically overexpressing drug transporters being capable of extruding the respective drug. To date, there is no definite data indicating which mechanism truly applies or whether there are circumstances promoting either mode of action. This review summarizes experimental evidence for both theories, suggests an algorithm discriminating between these two modes, and finally points out future experimental approaches of research to answer this basic question in cancer pharmacology.

Abstract
Cabozantinib (CAB) is a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of several cancer types. Enterohepatic recirculation (EHC) of the substance is assumed but has not been further investigated yet. CAB is mainly metabolized via CYP3A4 and is susceptible for drug-drug interactions (DDI). The goal of this work was to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to investigate EHC, to simulate DDI with Rifampin and to simulate subjects with hepatic impairment. The model was established using PK-Sim® and six human clinical studies. The inclusion of an EHC process into the model led to the most accurate description of the pharmacokinetic behavior of CAB. The model was able to predict plasma concentrations with low bias and good precision. Ninety-seven percent of all simulated plasma concentrations fell within 2-fold of the corresponding concentration observed. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC) were predicted correctly (predicted/observed ratio of 0.9-1.2 for AUC and 0.8-1.1 for Cmax). DDI with Rifampin led to a reduction in predicted AUC by 77%. Several physiological parameters were adapted to simulate hepatic impairment correctly. This is the first CAB model used to simulate DDI with Rifampin and hepatic impairment including EHC, which can serve as a starting point for further simulations with regard to special populations.

Abstract
A microfluidic multi-organ chip emulates the tissue culture microenvironment, enables interconnection of organ equivalents and overcomes interspecies differences, making this technology a promising and powerful tool for preclinical drug screening. In this study, we established a microfluidic chip-based model that enabled non-contact cocultivation of liver spheroids and renal proximal tubule barriers in a connecting media circuit over 16 days. Meanwhile, a 14-day repeated-dose systemic administration of cyclosporine A (CsA) alone or in combination with rifampicin was performed. Toxicity profiles of the two different doses of CsA on different target organs could be discriminated and that concomitant treatment with rifampicin from day6 onwards decreased the CsA concentration and attenuated the toxicity compared with that after treatment with CsA for 14 consecutive days. The latter is manifested with the changes in cytotoxicity, cell viability and apoptosis, gene expression of metabolic enzymes and transporters, and noninvasive toxicity biomarkers. The on chip coculture of the liver and the proximal tubulus equivalents showed its potential as an effective and translational tool for repeated dose multi-drug toxicity screening in the preclinical stage of drug development.

Abstract
Interactions between transcriptional inducers of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) and pharmacological agents might decrease drug efficacy and induce side effects. Such interactions could be prevented using an antagonist of the pregnane X receptor (PXR) and constitutive androstane receptor (CAR). Here, we aimed to determine the antagonistic effect of oleanolic acid (OA) on PXR and CAR. OA attenuated the promoter activities, expressions, and enzyme catalytic activities of CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 mediated by rifampin (RIF) and CITCO. Moreover, OA displayed species specificity for rodent PXR. Interaction of coregulators with PXR and transcriptional complexes on the CYP3A4 promoter was disrupted by OA. Additionally, OA reversed the cytotoxic effects of isoniazid induced by RIF. These data demonstrate that OA inhibited the transactivation of PXR and CAR, reduced the expression and function of CYP3A4 and CYP2B6, and may therefore serve as an effective agent for reducing probability adverse interactions between transcriptional inducers of CYP450 and therapeutic drugs.

Abstract
Transporters in proximal renal tubules contribute to the disposition of numerous drugs. Furthermore, the molecular mechanisms of tubular secretion have been progressively elucidated during the past decades. Organic anions tend to be secreted by the transport proteins OAT1, OAT3 and OATP4C1 on the basolateral side of tubular cells, and multidrug resistance protein (MRP) 2, MRP4, OATP1A2 and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) on the apical side. Organic cations are secreted by organic cation transporter (OCT) 2 on the basolateral side, and multidrug and toxic compound extrusion (MATE) proteins MATE1, MATE2/2-K, P-glycoprotein, organic cation and carnitine transporter (OCTN) 1 and OCTN2 on the apical side. Significant drug-drug interactions (DDIs) may affect any of these transporters, altering the clearance and, consequently, the efficacy and/or toxicity of substrate drugs. Interactions at the level of basolateral transporters typically decrease the clearance of the victim drug, causing higher systemic exposure. Interactions at the apical level can also lower drug clearance, but may be associated with higher renal toxicity, due to intracellular accumulation. Whereas the importance of glomerular filtration in drug disposition is largely appreciated among clinicians, DDIs involving renal transporters are less well recognized. This review summarizes current knowledge on the roles, quantitative importance and clinical relevance of these transporters in drug therapy. It proposes an approach based on substrate-inhibitor associations for predicting potential tubular-based DDIs and preventing their adverse consequences. We provide a comprehensive list of known drug interactions with renally-expressed transporters. While many of these interactions have limited clinical consequences, some involving high-risk drugs (e.g. methotrexate) definitely deserve the attention of prescribers.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the CYP450 enzyme family and cisplatin toxicity. METHODS This article examined a collection of studies suggesting that CYP450 enzymes may influence cisplatin toxicity. We performed a narrative mini-review. RESULTS The studies review showed that CYP450 enzymes have an important role in drug-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, mainly CYP2E1 and CYP4A11. The studies also suggested that the cisplatin and CYP2E1 interaction leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other oxidants resulting in renal injury; and that ROS generated by both the use of cisplatin and by the CYP2E1 increases tissue damage, induces apoptosis, and causes liver failure. CONCLUSIONS We observed that there is an important relationship between CYP450 and cisplatin, involving increased toxicity. However, the possible mechanisms described for the involvement of CYP450 enzymes in nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity induced by cisplatin need to be confirmed by further studies. Therefore, there is a need for a deeper investigation focusing on cisplatin toxicity mediated by CYP450 enzymes, which would undoubtedly contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms that have been implicated so far.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are highly expressed in tumor cells, as well as in organs involved in absorption and secretion processes, mediating the ATP-dependent efflux of compounds, both endogenous substances and xenobiotics, including drugs. Their expression and activity levels are modulated by the presence of inhibitors, inducers and/or activators. In vitro, ex vivo and in vivo studies with both known and newly synthesized P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inducers and/or activators have shown the usefulness of these transport mechanisms in reducing the systemic exposure and specific tissue access of potentially harmful compounds. This article focuses on the main ABC transporters involved in multidrug resistance [P-gp, multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)] expressed in tissues of toxicological relevance, such as the blood-brain barrier, cardiovascular system, liver, kidney and intestine. Moreover, it provides a review of the available cellular models, in vitro and ex vivo assays for the screening and selection of safe and specific inducers and activators of these membrane transporters. The available cellular models and in vitro assays have been proposed as high throughput and low-cost alternatives to excessive animal testing, allowing the evaluation of a large number of compounds.

Effects of in vitro exposure to ivermectin and levamisole on the expression patterns of ABC transporters in Haemonchus contortus larvae. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR PARASITOLOGY-DRUGS AND DRUG RESISTANCE 2016; 6:103-15. [PMID: 27164439 PMCID: PMC4919253 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpddr.2016.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2015] [Revised: 03/21/2016] [Accepted: 03/22/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
This study investigated the interaction of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transport proteins with ivermectin (IVM) and levamisole (LEV) in larvae of susceptible and resistant isolates of Haemonchus contortus in vitro by measuring transcription patterns following exposure to these anthelmintics. Furthermore, we studied the consequences of drug exposure by measuring the sensitivity of L3 to subsequent exposure to higher drug concentrations using larval migration assays. The most highly transcribed transporter genes in both susceptible and resistant L3 were pgp-9.3, abcf-1, mrp-5, abcf-2, pgp-3, and pgp-10. The resistant isolate showed significantly higher transcription of pgp-1, pgp-9.1 and pgp-9.2 compared to the susceptible isolate. Five P-gp genes and the haf-6 gene showed significantly higher transcription (up to 12.6-fold) after 3 h exposure to IVM in the resistant isolate. Similarly, five P-gp genes, haf-6 and abcf-1 were transcribed at significantly higher levels (up to 10.3-fold) following 3 h exposure to LEV in this isolate. On the other hand, there were no significant changes in transcriptional patterns of all transporter genes in the susceptible isolate following 3 and 6 h exposure to IVM or LEV. In contrast to these isolate-specific transcription changes, both isolates showed an increase in R-123 efflux following exposure to the drugs, suggesting that the drugs stimulated activity of existing transporter proteins in both isolates. Exposure of resistant larvae to IVM or LEV resulted, in some instances, in an increase in the proportion of the population able to migrate at the highest IVM concentrations in subsequent migration assays. The significant increase in transcription of some ABC transporter genes following 3 h exposure to both IVM and LEV in the resistant isolate only, suggests that an ability to rapidly upregulate protective pathways in response to drugs may be a component of the resistance displayed by this isolate. We studied interaction of anthelmintics with ABC transporters in Haemonchus contortus. pgp-1, 2, -9.1, -10, and -11 and haf-6 up-regulated after 3 h exposure to ivermectin. Up-regulation occurred in a drug-resistant isolate but not in a -susceptible isolate. A proportion of the drug exposed larvae showed tolerance to subsequent drug treatment. Rapid up-regulation of transporters may be component of resistance in parasitic nematodes.

Abstract
Anti-retroviral (ARV) -based microbicides are one of the strategies pursued to prevent HIV-1 transmission. Delivery of ARV drugs to subepithelial CD4+ T cells at concentrations for protection is likely determined by drug transporters expressed in the cervicovaginal epithelium. To define the role of drug transporters in mucosal disposition of topically applied ARV-based microbicides, these must be tested in epithelial cell line-based biopharmaceutical assays factoring the effect of relevant drug transporters. We have characterised gene expression of influx and efflux drug transporters in a panel of cervicovaginal cell lines and compared this to expression in cervicovaginal tissue. We also investigated the effect of dapivirine, darunavir and tenofovir, currently at advanced stages of microbicides development, on expression of drug transporters in cell lines. Expression of efflux ABC transporters in cervical tissue was best represented in HeLa, Ect1/E6E7 and End1/E6E7 cell lines. Expression of influx OCT and ENT transporters in ectocervix matched expression in Hela while expression of influx SLCO transporters in vagina was best reflected in VK2/E6E7 cell line. Stimulation with darunavir and dapivirine upregulated MRP transporters, including MRP5 involved in transport of tenofovir. Dapivirine also significantly downregulated tenofovir substrate MRP4 in cervical cell lines. Treatment with darunavir and dapivirine showed no significant effect on expression of BCRP, MRP2 and P-glycoprotein implicated in efflux of different ARV drugs. Darunavir strongly induced expression in most cell lines of CNT3 involved in cell uptake of nucleotide/nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors and SLCO drug transporters involved in cell uptake of protease inhibitors. This study provides insight into the suitability of cervicovaginal cell lines for assessment of ARV drugs in transport kinetics studies. The modulatory effect of darunavir and dapivirine on expression of drug transporters involved in transport of tenofovir points to the possibility of combining these drugs to improve retention of individual drugs at target tissues.

Abstract
The importance of genetic factors (e.g. sequence variation) in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion (ADME) and overall efficacy of therapeutic agents is well established. Our ability to identify, interpret and utilize these factors is the subject of much clinical investigation and therapeutic development. However, drug ADME and efficacy are also heavily influenced by epigenetic factors such as DNA/histone methylation and non-coding RNAs [especially microRNAs (miRNAs)]. Results from studies using tools, such as in silico miRNA target prediction, in vitro functional assays, nucleic acid profiling/sequencing and high-throughput proteomics, are rapidly expanding our knowledge of these factors and their effects on drug metabolism. Although these studies reveal a complex regulation of drug ADME, an increased understanding of the molecular interplay between the genome, epigenome and transcriptome has the potential to provide practically useful strategies to facilitate drug development, optimize therapeutic efficacy, circumvent adverse effects, yield novel diagnostics and ultimately become an integral component of personalized medicine.

Effect of FosPeg® mediated photoactivation on P-gp/ABCB1 protein expression in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY B-BIOLOGY 2015; 148:82-87.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) refers to the ability of cancer cells to develop cross resistance to a range of anticancer drugs which are structurally and functionally unrelated. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is the best studied MDR phenotype in photodynamic therapy (PDT) treated cells. Our pervious study demonstrated that FosPeg® mediated PDT is effective to NPC cell line models. In this in vitro study, the expression of MDR1 gene and its product P-gp in undifferentiated, poorly differentiated and well differentiated human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells were investigated. The influence of P-gp efflux activities on photosensitizer FosPeg® was also examined. Regardless of the differentiation status, PDT tested NPC cell lines all expressed P-gp protein. Results indicated that FosPeg® photoactivation could heighten the expression of MDR1 gene and P-gp transporter protein in a dose dependent manner. Up to 2-fold increase of P-gp protein expression were seen in NPC cells after FosPeg® mediated PDT. Interestingly, our finding demonstrated that FosPeg® mediated PDT efficiency is independent to the MDR1 gene and P-gp protein expression in NPC cells. FosPeg® itself is not the substrate of P-gp transporter protein and no efflux of FosPeg® were observed in NPC cells. Therefore, the PDT efficiency would not be affected even though FosPeg® mediated PDT could induce MDR1 gene and P-gp protein expression in NPC cells. FosPeg® mediated PDT could be a potential therapeutic approach for MDR cancer patients.

Abstract
Background Bcl-2 plays a major role in the pathobiology and drug resistance of ovarian cancer, and inhibition of bcl-2 was useful for OC therapy. It has previously reported that TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 family proteins, inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis in many cancer cells. In the present study,we investigate the effect of TW-37 or / and in combination with cisplain on several ovarian cancer (OC) cell lines with high bcl-2 expression. Methods The bcl-2 mRNA and protein expression, and the cisplain (DDP) sensitivity of OC cell lines SKOV3, OVCAR3, OV-90 and 3AO and SKOV3DDP were determined by Quantitative real-time RT-PCR,Western blot, and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (MTT) assays. The effects of TW-37 alone or combined with cisplain on growth and apoptosis in bcl-2 overexpressed OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP cells was detected by MTT,clonogenic assay, ELISA and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Results The cell lines SKOV3 and 3AO were sensitive, whereas OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP were resistant to cisplain. Significant positive correlation was observed between basal bcl-2 mRNA and protein and cisplain sensitivity. Cisplain treatment did not activate bcl-2 in vitro. Treatment with TW-37 inhibited bcl-2 expression in bcl-2 overexpressed OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP cells , and inhibited growth and induced apoptosis ,and increased cisplain killing of the bcl-2 overexpressed cells in a does and time-dependant manner in vitro. Conclusion Bcl-2 level positively correlated with sensitivity to cisplain. Treatment with TW-37 was effective alone and in combination with cisplain in bcl-2 overexpressed OC cell lines in vitro. Thus, TW-37 may be a useful therapeutic agent for OCs.

Abstract
Previous work has indicated that there is increased protein expression of multidrug resistance-associated protein 3 (MRP3) in the liver samples of patients treated with omeprazole compared with those who were not. However, evidence is still lacking to show the mechanisms underlying that induction. This study aimed to assess changes in the fold-induction of MRP3 mRNA and protein expression over controls in omeprazole-treated HepG2 cells after transient transfection of human MRP3 siRNA, or after pretreatment with actinomycin D (Act-D). Furthermore, MRP3 siRNA knock-down or MRP-specific inhibition (indomethacin) was used to determine whether the MRP3 protein induced by omeprazole possessed an enhanced efflux transport. The results demonstrated that omeprazole induced MRP3 mRNA and protein expression in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Moreover, that induction was almost completely abolished by the addition of human MRP3 siRNA and also by pretreatment with Act-D, respectively. In addition, the decay rate of MRP3 mRNA in vehicle- and omeprazole-treated cells was similar in the presence of Act-D, suggesting transcriptional up-regulation of MRP3 mRNA expression by omeprazole. Most importantly, omeprazole induced MRP3 efflux transport activity, as measured by the 5-carboxyfluorescein assay in the absence and presence of human MRP3 siRNA or indomethacin. It is concluded that omeprazole can induce MRP3 mRNA and protein expression and enhance MRP3 efflux transport activity through transcriptional up-regulation, and that omeprazole can also induce other MRP transporters.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to characterize the responsiveness of CYP1A and ABC transport proteins in European Sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) waterborne exposed to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) (46 pg/L) for 24 h and 7 days. Genes modulation (abcb1, abcc1-2, cyp1a), EROD activity were investigated in liver and 2,3,7,8-TCDD bioconcentration in liver and muscle. TCDD induced significantly cyp1a gene expression and EROD activity at 24 h and 7 d. A significant up-regulation of abcb1 was also observed but only after 7 days. No modulation of abcc1 and abcc2 genes was observed. Waterborne TCDD exposure was able to induce CYP1A and abcb1 encoding for P-glycoprotein in juvenile of European sea bass.

Abstract
The biodisposition of the antiparasitic drug ivermectin in host and parasite is decisive for its efficacy and strongly depends on the efflux by ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporters and on its biotransformation by cytochromes P450. The purpose of this study was to evaluate, in vitro and in vivo, the ivermectin ability in modulating the expression of the most important genes involved in drug detoxification. Gene expression of ABC transporters and cytochromes was evaluated by RT-qPCR in murine hepatic and intestinal cell lines exposed to increasing ivermectin doses, and in liver and intestine of mice orally administered with single or repeated therapeutic doses of ivermectin (0.2 mg/kg). Plasma, brain, liver and intestinal concentrations of ivermectin and its main metabolite were measured by HPLC in ivermectin-treated mice. In hepatocyte cell line, ivermectin up-regulated expression of Abcb1a, Abcb1b, Abcc2, Cyp1a1, Cyp1a2, Cyp2b10; while Abcb1a, Abcb1b, Abcg2, Cyp1a1, Cyp1a2, Cyp2b10 and Cyp3a11 levels were induced in intestinal cell line. In mice, repeated administration of ivermectin induced the expression of Abcb1a, Abcc2, Cyp1a1 and Cyp2b10 in intestine while only Cyp3a11 was induced in liver. Compared with single administration, repeated ivermectin administration lowered plasma, liver and intestine drug concentration, while increasing main metabolite content in plasma and intestine. These findings can be regarded as a warning that repeated ivermectin exposure is able to induce detoxification systems in mammals that may lead to subtherapeutic drug concentration. This may also be an important consideration in the assessment of drug-drug interaction and toxicity for other ABC transporters and CYP450s substrates.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major impediment to the overall success of chemotherapy in clinical oncology. MDR has been primarily attributed by the ATP-dependent transmembrane proteins, P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and Multidrug Resistance-Associated Protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1). These proteins maintain sublethal concentrations of intracellular chemotherapeutics by virtue of their drug efflux capacity. In this study, we report the acquisition and dissemination of functional MRP1 via microparticle (MP) mediated intercellular transfer. After we showed the transfer and functionality of P-gp in drug sensitive recipient cells, we report the transfer and time-dependent functionality of MRP1 in drug sensitive leukaemia cells following exposure to MPs shed by MRP1-overexpressing MDR cells. We also demonstrate a remarkable capacity for MPs shed from cells with a P-gp dominant resistance profile to re-template a pre-existing MRP1 dominant profile in recipient cells. These findings have significance in understanding the molecular basis for tumour dominant phenotypes and introduce potential new strategies and targets for the acquisition of MDR and other deleterious traits.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of solid tumors. A serious complication of cisplatin treatment is permanent hearing loss. The aim of this study was to replicate previous genetic findings in an independent cohort of 155 pediatric patients. Associations were replicated for genetic variants in TPMT (rs12201199, P = 0.0013, odds ratio (OR) 6.1) and ABCC3 (rs1051640, P = 0.036, OR 1.8). A predictive model combining variants in TPMT, ABCC3, and COMT with clinical variables (patient age, vincristine treatment, germ-cell tumor, and cranial irradiation) significantly improved the prediction of hearing-loss development as compared with using clinical risk factors alone (area under the curve (AUC) 0.786 vs. 0.708, P = 0.00048). The novel combination of genetic and clinical factors predicted the risk of hearing loss with a sensitivity of 50.3% and a specificity of 92.7%. These findings provide evidence to support the importance of TPMT, COMT, and ABCC3 in the prediction of cisplatin-induced hearing loss in children.

Abstract
This review encompasses the most important advances in liver functions and hepatotoxicity and analyzes which mechanisms can be studied in vitro. In a complex architecture of nested, zonated lobules, the liver consists of approximately 80 % hepatocytes and 20 % non-parenchymal cells, the latter being involved in a secondary phase that may dramatically aggravate the initial damage. Hepatotoxicity, as well as hepatic metabolism, is controlled by a set of nuclear receptors (including PXR, CAR, HNF-4α, FXR, LXR, SHP, VDR and PPAR) and signaling pathways. When isolating liver cells, some pathways are activated, e.g., the RAS/MEK/ERK pathway, whereas others are silenced (e.g. HNF-4α), resulting in up- and downregulation of hundreds of genes. An understanding of these changes is crucial for a correct interpretation of in vitro data. The possibilities and limitations of the most useful liver in vitro systems are summarized, including three-dimensional culture techniques, co-cultures with non-parenchymal cells, hepatospheres, precision cut liver slices and the isolated perfused liver. Also discussed is how closely hepatoma, stem cell and iPS cell-derived hepatocyte-like-cells resemble real hepatocytes. Finally, a summary is given of the state of the art of liver in vitro and mathematical modeling systems that are currently used in the pharmaceutical industry with an emphasis on drug metabolism, prediction of clearance, drug interaction, transporter studies and hepatotoxicity. One key message is that despite our enthusiasm for in vitro systems, we must never lose sight of the in vivo situation. Although hepatocytes have been isolated for decades, the hunt for relevant alternative systems has only just begun.

Abstract
AIM To investigate whether multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) was responsible for drug resistence in refractory epilepsy in amygdale kindling rats. METHODS Rat amygdale kindling was used as a model of refractory epilepsy. The expression of MRP1 mRNA and protein in the brains was examined using RT-PCR and Western blot. MRP1-positive cells in the cortex and hippocampus were studied with immunohistochemical staining. The rats were intraperitoneally injected with phenytoin (50 mg/kg) or carbamazepine (20 mg/kg), and their concentrations in the cortical extracellular fluid were measured using microdialysis and HPLC. Probenecid, a MRP1 inhibitor (40 mmol/L, 50 μL) was administered through an inflow tube into the cortex 30 min before injection of the antiepileptic drugs. RESULTS The expression of MRP1 mRNA and protein was significantly up-regulated in the cortex and hippocampus in amygdale kindling rats compared with the control group. Furthermore, the number of MRP1-positive cells in the cortex and hippocampus was also significantly increased in amygdale kindling rats. Microdialysis studies showed that the concentrations of phenytoin and carbamazepine in the cortical extracellular fluid were significantly decreased in amygdale kindling rats. Pre-administration of probenecid could restore the concentrations back to their control levels. CONCLUSION Up-regulation of MRP1 is responsible for the resistance of brain cells to antiepileptic drugs in the amygdale kindling rats.

Abstract
Export pumps often limit the usefulness of anticancer drugs. Here we investigated the effect of cisplatin on the expression of ABC proteins in human colon cancer cells. Short-term incubation of Caco-2 and LS174T cells with cisplatin resulted in up-regulation of several ABC pumps, in particular MRP2 and BCRP. In partially cisplatin-resistant cells (LS174T/R) obtained by long-term exposure to cisplatin, MRP2 and BCRP up-regulation was more marked. This was further enhanced when these cells were cultured under maintained stimulation with cisplatin. The MRP2 promoter (MRP2pr) was cloned, and partially deleted constructs linked to reporter genes were generated. Transfection of LS174T and LS174T/R cells with these constructs revealed the ability of cisplatin to activate MRP2pr. The intensity of this response was dependent on the conserved MRP2pr region. Basal MRP2pr activity was higher in LS174T/R cells, in which the expression of the transcription factors c/EBPβ, HNF1α, HNF3β, and HNF4α, but not PXR, p53, c-Myc, AP1, YB-1, NRF2, and RARα was enhanced. Up-regulation was particularly high for FXR (200-fold) and SHP (50-fold). In LS174T/R cells, GW4064 induced the expression of FGF19, SHP, OSTα/β, but not MRP2 and BCRP, although the sensitivity of these cells to cisplatin was further reduced. In LS174T cells, GW4064-induced chemoresistance was seen only after being transfected with FXR+RXR, when BCRP, but not MRP2, was up-regulated. Protection of LS174T cells against cisplatin was mimicked by transfection with BCRP. In conclusion, in colon cancer cells, cisplatin treatment enhances chemoresistance through FXR-dependent and FXR-independent mechanisms involving the expression of BCRP and MRP2, respectively.

Abstract
Fish in many surface freshwaters are exposed to a range of pharmaceuticals via wastewater treatment works effluent discharges. In mammals the pregnane X receptor (PXR) plays a key role in the regulation of a suite of genes involved in drug biotransformation, but information on the role of this response pathway in fish is limited. Here we investigated the effects of exposure of carp (Cyprinus carpio) primary hepatocytes to the human PXR agonist rifampicin (RIF) on expression of target genes involved in phase I (cyp2k, cyp3a) and phase II (gstα, gstπ) drug metabolism and drug transporters mdr1 and mrp2. RIF induced expression of all target genes measured and the PXR antagonist ketoconazole (KET) inhibited responses of cyp2k and cyp3a. Exposure of the primary carp hepatocytes to the pharmaceuticals ibuprofen (IBU), clotrimazole (CTZ), clofibric acid (CFA) and propranolol (PRP), found responses to IBU and CFA, but not CTZ or PRP. This is in contrast with mammals, where CTZ is a potent PXR-agonist. Collectively our data indicate potential PXR involvement in regulating selected genes involved in drug metabolism in fish, but suggest some divergence in the regulation pathways with those in mammals. The carp primary hepatocyte model serves as a useful system for screening for responses in these target genes involved in drug metabolism.

Abstract
Parasitic helminths cause significant disease in animals and humans. In the absence of alternative treatments, anthelmintics remain the principal agents for their control. Resistance extends to the most important class of anthelmintics, the macrocyclic lactone endectocides (MLs), such as ivermectin, and presents serious problems for the livestock industries and threatens to severely limit current parasite control strategies in humans. Understanding drug resistance is important for optimizing and monitoring control, and reducing further selection for resistance. Multidrug resistance (MDR) ABC transporters have been implicated in ML resistance and contribute to resistance to a number of other anthelmintics. MDR transporters, such as P-glycoproteins, are essential for many cellular processes that require the transport of substrates across cell membranes. Being overexpressed in response to chemotherapy in tumour cells and to ML-based treatment in nematodes, they lead to therapy failure by decreasing drug concentration at the target. Several anthelmintics are inhibitors of these efflux pumps and appropriate combinations can result in higher treatment efficacy against parasites and reversal of resistance. However, this needs to be balanced against possible increased toxicity to the host, or the components of the combination selecting on the same genes involved in the resistance. Increased efficacy could result from modifying anthelmintic pharmacokinetics in the host or by blocking parasite transporters involved in resistance. Combination of anthelmintics can be beneficial for delaying selection for resistance. However, it should be based on knowledge of resistance mechanisms and not simply on mode of action classes, and is best started before resistance has been selected to any member of the combination. Increasing knowledge of the MDR transporters involved in anthelmintic resistance in helminths will play an important role in allowing for the identification of markers to monitor the spread of resistance and to evaluate new tools and management practices aimed at delaying its spread.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of octreotide (OCT) on the reversal of resistance of cisplatin-resistant cancer cells and on enhancement of the cisplatin sensitivity of cancer cells. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2-5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide method and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect of cisplatin, OCT or the combination of these two compounds on the proliferation and apoptosis of SKOV3/DDP cells. Real-time, quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of SSTR2, MDR1, MRP2, GST-π and EGFR in SKOV3/DDP cells following OCT treatment. At the concentration of 2.5-20 μg/ml, OCT significantly reduced the IC(50) value (P<0.05) and promoted apoptosis (P<0.05) in the SKOV3/DDP cells in response to cisplatin. The synergistic effect of OCT and cisplatin on SKOV3/DDP cell proliferation was observed. SSTR2 was expressed on the SKOV3/DDP cell surface. OCT increased GST-π expression (P<0.05) and reduced MRP2 and EGFR expression (P<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner. However, it had no effect on the expression of MDR1 (P>0.05). It is suggested that OCT inhibits ovarian cancer proliferation and promotes apoptosis, via the cell surface expression of SSRT2, and reverses cisplatin resistance through the inhibition of MRP2 and EGFR expression.

Abstract
Several noncoding microRNAs (miR or miRNA) have been shown to regulate the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Xenobiotic drug-induced changes in enzyme and transporter expression may be associated with the alteration of miRNA expression. Therefore, this study investigated the impact of 19 xenobiotic drugs (e.g. dexamethasone, vinblastine, bilobalide and cocaine) on the expression of ten miRNAs (miR-18a, -27a, -27b, -124a, -148a, -324-3p, -328, -451, -519c and -1291) in MCF-7, Caco-2, SH-SY5Y and BE(2)-M17 cell systems. The data revealed that miRNAs were differentially expressed in human cell lines and the change in miRNA expression was dependent on the drug, as well as the type of cells investigated. Notably, treatment with bilobalide led to a 10-fold increase of miR-27a and a 2-fold decrease of miR-148a in Caco-2 cells, but no change of miR-27a and a 2-fold increase of miR-148a in MCF-7 cells. Neuronal miR-124a was generally down-regulated by psychoactive drugs (e.g. cocaine, methadone and fluoxetine) in BE(2)-M17 and SH-SY5Y cells. Dexamethasone and vinblastine, inducers of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters, suppressed the expression of miR-27b, -148a and -451 that down-regulate the enzymes and transporters. These findings should provide increased understanding of the altered gene expression underlying drug disposition, multidrug resistance, drug-drug interactions and neuroplasticity.

Abstract
microRNAs (miRNAs), which contribute to the post-transcriptional processing through 3'-untranslated region-interference, have been shown to be involved in the regulation of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) membrane transporters. The aim of this study was to investigate whether ABCC2, an important efflux transporter for various endogenous and exogenous compounds at several compartment barriers, is subject to miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene regulation. We screened the expression of 377 human miRNAs in HepG2 cells after 48 h of treatment with 5 μM rifampicin [a pregnane X receptor (PXR) ligand] or vehicle using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction-based low-density arrays. Specific miRNA, ABCC2 mRNA, and protein expression were monitored in HepG2 cells undergoing rifampicin treatment for 72 h. Loss- and gain-of-function experiments and reporter gene assays were performed for further confirmation. Highly deregulated miRNAs compared with in silico data revealed miRNA (miR) 379 as candidate miRNA targeting ABCC2 mRNA. Under rifampicin treatment, ABCC2 mRNA increased significantly, with a maximal fold change of 1.56 ± 0.43 after 24 h. In addition, miR-379 increased (maximally 4.10 ± 1.33-fold after 48 h), whereas ABCC2 protein decreased with a maximal fold change of 0.47 ± 0.08 after 72 h. In contrast, transfection of miR-379 inhibitor led to an elevation of ABCC2 protein expression after rifampicin incubation for 48 h. We identify a miRNA negatively regulating ABCC2 on the post-transcriptional level and provide evidence that this miRNA impedes overexpression of ABCC2 protein after a PXR-mediated external transcriptional stimulus in HepG2 cells.

Abstract
The pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR1I2) is a ligand activated transcription factor that belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor (NR) superfamily. PXR is highly expressed in the liver and intestine, but low levels of expression have also been found in many other tissues. PXR plays an integral role in xenobiotic and endobiotic metabolism by regulating the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters, as well as genes implicated in the metabolism of endobiotics. PXR exerts its transcriptional regulation by binding to its DNA response elements as a heterodimer with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) and recruitment of a host of coactivators. The biological and physiological implications of PXR activation are broad, ranging from drug metabolism and drug-drug interactions to the homeostasis of numerous endobiotics, such as glucose, lipids, steroids, bile acids, bilirubin, retinoic acid, and bone minerals. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview on the transcriptional circuits and metabolic relevance controlled by PXR. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Translating Nuclear Receptors from Health to Disease.

Abstract
Evasion of apoptosis plays a key role in cancer development, drug resistance, and recurrence. The BRCA1 locus product protein BRCA1-IRIS is overexpressed in several cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell lines, but its relationship to resistance is uncertain. Here, we show that in human ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE) cells, overexpression of BRCA1-IRIS triggers expression of the antiapoptotic protein survivin. Negative modulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling or AKT silencing reduced survivin expression in this setting. Conversely, silencing BRCA1-IRIS in ovarian cancer cell lines derepressed PTEN expression along with the antiapoptotic AKT targets FOXO1 and FOXO3a, suppressing survivin expression. Cisplatin (≤50 μmol/L) exposure was sufficient to activate expression of the BRCA1-IRIS-AKT-survivin cascade in HOSE cells, whereas under similar conditions cisplatin failed to induce apoptosis in ovarian cancer cell lines expressing this regulatory cascade. Mechanistic investigations indicated that BRCA1-IRIS triggers survivin expression through a PI3K/AKT-dependent pathway involving NF-κB, but also through a PI3K/AKT-independent pathway involving PTEN, FOXO1, and FOXO3a. Our findings indicate how BRCA1-IRIS overexpression prevents chemotherapy-induced cell death by upregulating expression of survivin, and they highlight this regulatory cascade as a candidate focus to improve treatment of advanced drug-resistant ovarian cancers.

Abstract
The subfamily of ABCC transporters consists of 13 members in mammals, including the multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs), sulfonylurea receptors (SURs), and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). These proteins play roles in chemical detoxification, disposition, and normal cell physiology. ABCC transporters are expressed differentially in the liver and are regulated at the transcription and translation level. Their expression and function are also controlled by post-translational modification and membrane-trafficking events. These processes are tightly regulated. Information about alterations in the expression of hepatobiliary ABCC transporters could provide important insights into the pathogenesis of diseases and disposition of xenobiotics. In this review, we describe the regulation of hepatic ABCC transporters in humans and rodents by a variety of xenobiotics, under disease states and in genetically modified animal models deficient in transcription factors, transporters, and cell-signaling molecules.

Abstract
Based on our current knowledge, PXR holds a key position in the induction of a selective battery of enzymes and transporters of drug metabolism. In order to prevent serious adverse drug effects or unpredicted drug-drug interactions (DDI), it is compulsory to investigate the possible inducing potency of drugs under development. Furthermore, analysis of the inducing potency of environmental pollutants and new or manufactured chemicals is part of toxicological risk assessment. In non-transfected human HepG2 and rat H4IIE hepatoma cells, we examined the characteristics of expression of 45 genes involved in drug metabolism. A few gene products such as CYP2B6 or CYP3A4 mRNA were prominent in HepG2 cells while their major rat counterparts were, e.g., CYP2B3 or CYP3A1/3A3. Furthermore, a number of xenobiotic receptors including PXR were expressed in both cell lines. A number of genes were regulated in a cell type and species-specific manner after incubation with the prototypical PXR agonists rifampicin or dexamethasone, respectively. Then, we established cell-based reporter gene assays for screening for PXR-dependent induction of drug metabolism. HepG2 and H4IIE cells were stably transfected with a reporter gene containing PXR responsive elements (XREMs) which mediate the induction of PXR target genes such as CYP3A enzymes. With both stable cell lines the CYP inducers clotrimazole, dexamethasone, omeprazole, phenobarbital, rifampicin, as well as the drug candidate EMD 392949 and the brominated flame retardants hexabromocylododecane (HBCD) and a pentabromodiphenyl ether (pentaBDE) mixture were screened. In the human HepG2-XREM3 and rat H4IIE-XREM3 cells, clotrimazole and HBCD were found as common activators of the human and rat PXR whereas pentaBDE was more effective with the human cell system. Omeprazole and phenobarbital did not induce the rat PXR-dependent reporter gene expression in H4IIE-XREM3 cells, while a moderate increase was found in HepG2-XREM3 cells. EMD 392949 also acted as inducer in human but not in rat cells confirming in vivo observations. In summary, the established PXR-dependent in vitro system allows the simultaneous, fast, and species-specific screening of chemicals, environmental contaminants, food ingredients and drugs for CYP3A induction in cells of human and rat origin.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) is an organic anion efflux pump capable of transporting nucleoside, nucleotide analogs, and cyclic nucleotide. MRP4 could have an influence on the resistance and transport of the two oxazaphosphorines, cyclophosphamide (CP) and ifosfamide (IF). V/HepG2 (HepG2, hepatoma cells stably transfected with an empty vehicle plasmid) and MRP4/HepG2 (HepG2 cells stably expressing MRP4) were exposed to CP and IF in the absence or presence of various MRP4 inhibitors. HepG2 and HEK293 human kidney cells were also used to investigate the inducing potency of oxazaphosphorines on the MRP4 expression. In this study, insertion of MRP4 gene in HepG2 cells was found to confer significant resistance to CP and IF in the 48-h drug-exposure assays. In the presence of various MRP4 inhibitors, the resistance to CP and IF was then partially reversed. These indicate that CP and IF are highly possible substrates of MRP4. In addition, CP and clofibrate (CFB), a reported MRP4 inducer, in vivo significantly increased the MRP4 expression at both protein level and mRNA level in HEK293 cells at higher concentrations, while IF significantly decreased the MRP4 expression at mRNA level at lower concentration and had no effect at higher concentrations. However, all tested compounds (CP, IF, and CFB) did not change the MRP4 protein expression in HepG2 cells. CP and CFB are cell-specific and concentration-dependent MRP4 inducers. The finding may have implications in the CP- or IF-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Liver X receptors (LXRs) belong to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. Multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2), multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) play an important role in the efflux of a broad range of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds from hepatocytes. Since the effects of LXR activation on there transporters have been obscure, we investigated the effects of LXR agonists, TO901317 and 25-hydroxycholesterol, on MRP2, MDR1, BCRP expression in HepG2 cells and the rat liver. In an in vitro study, TO901317 increased ABCA1, an LXR target gene, and MRP2 mRNA and protein levels. On the other hand, TO901317 had little effect on MDR1 and BCRP mRNA levels. In an in vivo study, Abca1 and Mrp2 mRNA and protein levels were increased by TO901317, but TO901317 had no effect on Mdr1a and Bcrp mRNA levels in the rat liver. Moreover, TO901317-induced MRP2 mRNA expression was blocked by LXRalpha knockdown. In this study, we demonstrated that LXR activation induced expression of MRP2 but not that of MDR1 and BCRP in hepatocytes. The results suggest that agonists for LXR activate transcription of the MRP2 gene in order to promote excretion of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds from hepatocytes into bile.

Abstract
In order to provide a global analysis of the effects of endocrine disruptors on the hormone cellular bioavailability, we combined 17beta-estradiol (E2) cellular flow studies with real-time PCR and Western blot expression measurements of genes involved in the hormone metabolism and excretion. Three endocrine disruptors commonly found in food were chosen for this study, which was conducted in the estrogen receptor (ER) negative hepatoblastoma HepG2 cell line: bisphenol A (BPA), genistein (GEN) and resveratrol (RES). We showed that 24 h after a single dose treatment with genistein, resveratrol or bisphenol A, the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporters (the multidrug resistance or MDR, and the multidrug resistance associated proteins or MRP) uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) and/or sulfotransferases (ST) involved in 17beta-estradiol elimination process were significantly modulated and that 17beta-estradiol cellular flow was modified. Resveratrol induced MDR1 and MRP3 expressions, bisphenol A induced MRP2 and MRP3 expressions, and both enhanced 17beta-estradiol efflux. Genistein, on the other hand, inhibited ST1E1 and UGT1A1 expressions, and led to 17beta-estradiol cellular retention. Thus, we demonstrate that bisphenol A, genistein and resveratrol modulate 17beta-estradiol cellular bioavailability in HepG2 and that these modulations most probably involve regulations of 17beta-estradiol phase II and III metabolism proteins. Up to now, the estrogenicity of environmental estrogenic pollutants has been based on the property of these compounds to bind to ERs. Our results obtained with ER negative cells provide strong evidence for the existence of ER-independent pathways leading to endocrine disruption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Certain nuclear receptors (NRs) such as the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), pregnane X receptor (PXR) and farnesoid X receptor (FXR) mediate induction of some cytochrome P450 enzymes and ABC transporters but conflicting reports exist. The purpose of this study was to assess the reasons for these discrepancies and use a standardized approach to compare activators of NRs. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Dexamethasone, pregnenolone 16alpha-carbonitrile, rifampicin, phenobarbital and chenodeoxycholic acid were incubated with HepG2, Caco-2 and cryopreserved human hepatocytes prior to analysis of mRNA and protein for CYP2B6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCC2, PXR, CAR and FXR. KEY RESULTS Dexamethasone significantly up-regulated PXR, CYP3A4 and ABCB1 expression in HepG2 and Caco-2 cells. As a result, including dexamethasone as a media supplement masked the induction of these genes by pregnenolone 16alpha-carbonitrile, which may explain discrepancies between previous reports. In the absence of dexamethasone, significant activator-dependent induction was observed in all cell types. Significant correlations were observed between the fold increase in mRNA and in protein, which were, for most instances, logarithmic. Changes in mRNA expression were greater in cell lines than primary cells but for most transcripts correlations were observed between fold increases in HepG2 and hepatocytes. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Clearly, no in vitro system can imitate the physiology of a hepatocyte or intestinal cell within an intact organ in vivo, but these data explain some of the discrepancies reported between laboratories and have important implications for study design.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic behaviour of drugs strongly depends on transporters in intestine and liver. The extent of absorption in the intestine depends on diffusion across the mucosa as well as transporter-mediated uptake across the apical membrane of enterocytes. Efflux pumps in this membrane may strongly reduce the extent of net uptake. These efflux pumps are ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters which are also expressed in the apical membrane of the hepatocyte were they mediate excretion into bile. This combined activity strongly determines whether drugs have access to the systemic circulation.

Abstract
MRP1 (ABCC1) is a peculiar member of the ABC transporter superfamily for several aspects. This protein has an unusually broad substrate specificity and is capable of transporting not only a wide variety of neutral hydrophobic compounds, like the MDR1/P-glycoprotein, but also facilitating the extrusion of numerous glutathione, glucuronate, and sulfate conjugates. The transport mechanism of MRP1 is also complex; a composite substrate-binding site permits both cooperativity and competition between various substrates. This versatility and the ubiquitous tissue distribution make this transporter suitable for contributing to various physiological functions, including defense against xenobiotics and endogenous toxic metabolites, leukotriene-mediated inflammatory responses, as well as protection from the toxic effect of oxidative stress. In this paper, we give an overview of the considerable amount of knowledge which has accumulated since the discovery of MRP1 in 1992. We place special emphasis on the structural features essential for function, our recent understanding of the transport mechanism, and the numerous assignments of this transporter.

Abstract
Platinating agents, including cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin, have been used clinically for nearly 30years as part of the treatment of many types of cancers, including head and neck, testicular, ovarian, cervical, lung, colorectal and relapsed lymphoma. The cytotoxic lesion of platinating agents is thought to be the platinum intrastrand crosslink that forms on DNA, although treatment activates a number of signal transduction pathways. Treatment with these agents is characterized by resistance, both acquired and intrinsic. This resistance can be caused by a number of cellular adaptations, including reduced uptake, inactivation by glutathione and other anti-oxidants, and increased levels of DNA repair or DNA tolerance. Here we investigate the pathways that treatment with platinating agents activate, the mechanisms of resistance, potential candidate genes involved in the development of resistance, and associated clinical toxicities. Although the purpose of this review is to provide an overview of cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin, we have focused primarily on preclinical data that has clinical relevance generated over the past five years.
