Nielsen S, Westerhoff AM, Gé LG, Carlsen KL, Pedersen MDL, Nielsen CU. MRP2-mediated transport of etoposide in MDCKII MRP2 cells is unaffected by commonly used non-ionic surfactants. Int J Pharm 2019; 565:306-315. [PMID: 31085259 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.05.023] [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: 03/13/2019] [Revised: 05/04/2019] [Accepted: 05/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the ability of non-ionic surfactants to inhibit MRP2-mediated transport in vitro in MDCKII MRP2 cells. Transport studies across MDCKII MRP2 cell monolayers were performed using 3H-etoposide and 3H-digoxin. 19 different non-ionic surfactants, including several polysorbates (PS), cremophor EL, vitamin E-TPGS, and n-nonyl β-D-glucopyranoside (NG), were investigated. Barrier function of the cells was investigated measuring TEER and transport of 14C-glycine. The amount of isotope was quantified using liquid scintillation counting. In MDCKII MRP2 cells a polarized transport of etoposide and digoxin in the secretory (basolateral to apical) direction with efflux ratios of 5.5 ± 0.7 and 18.5 ± 4.2, respectively, was measured. P-gp inhibitors such as valspodar and zosuquidar did not affect etoposide transport, and furthermore PS20 decreased secretory transport of digoxin, but not of etoposide. Transport of etoposide was therefore mainly MRP2-mediated and used as a probe to investigate pharmaceutical excipients. Non-ionic surfactants did not modulate etoposide transport across intact cell monolayers of MRP2 overexpressing MDCKII cells, although preliminary studies suggest that most were able to alter MRP2-mediated efflux of the fluorescent 5-chloromethylfluorescein (CMF). In conclusion, etoposide transport across MDCKII MRP2 cells was modulated by cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of MRP2 and P-gp, but not by specific P-gp inhibitors (valspodar and zosuquidar), which suggests that etoposide transport is primarily influenced by MRP2. In addition, commonly used non-ionic surfactants did not decrease MRP2-mediated etoposide transport in MDCKII MRP2 cells. These results suggest that etoposide transport in MDCKII MRP2 cells is a model system to investigate MRP2 interactions, and that surfactants may not have a large potential for increasing oral bioavailability of drugs through inhibition of MRP2 transport activity.

Abstract
Transporters influence the disposition of chemicals within the body by participating in absorption, distribution, and elimination. Transporters of the solute carrier family (SLC) comprise a variety of proteins, including organic cation transporters (OCT) 1 to 3, organic cation/carnitine transporters (OCTN) 1 to 3, organic anion transporters (OAT) 1 to 7, various organic anion transporting polypeptide isoforms, sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide, apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter, peptide transporters (PEPT) 1 and 2, concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNT) 1 to 3, equilibrative nucleoside transporter (ENT) 1 to 3, and multidrug and toxin extrusion transporters (MATE) 1 and 2, which mediate the uptake (except MATEs) of organic anions and cations as well as peptides and nucleosides. Efflux transporters of the ATP-binding cassette superfamily, such as ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), multidrug resistance proteins (MDR) 1 and 2, bile salt export pump, multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRP) 1 to 9, breast cancer resistance protein, and ATP-binding cassette subfamily G members 5 and 8, are responsible for the unidirectional export of endogenous and exogenous substances. Other efflux transporters [ATPase copper-transporting beta polypeptide (ATP7B) and ATPase class I type 8B member 1 (ATP8B1) as well as organic solute transporters (OST) alpha and beta] also play major roles in the transport of some endogenous chemicals across biological membranes. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of these transporters (both rodent and human) with regard to tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and substrate preferences. Because uptake and efflux transporters are expressed in multiple cell types, the roles of transporters in a variety of tissues, including the liver, kidneys, intestine, brain, heart, placenta, mammary glands, immune cells, and testes are discussed. Attention is also placed upon a variety of regulatory factors that influence transporter expression and function, including transcriptional activation and post-translational modifications as well as subcellular trafficking. Sex differences, ontogeny, and pharmacological and toxicological regulation of transporters are also addressed. Transporters are important transmembrane proteins that mediate the cellular entry and exit of a wide range of substrates throughout the body and thereby play important roles in human physiology, pharmacology, pathology, and toxicology.

Abstract
We previously showed that inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 2 (IHPK2) functions as a growth-suppressive and apoptosis-enhancing kinase during cell stress. Overexpression of IHPK2 sensitized ovarian carcinoma cell lines to the growth-suppressive and apoptotic effects of interferon beta (IFN-beta), IFN-alpha2, and gamma-irradiation. Expression of a kinase-dead mutant abrogated 50% of the apoptosis induced by IFN-beta. Because the kinase-dead mutant retained significant response to cell stressors, we hypothesized that a portion of the death-promoting function of IHPK2 was independent of its kinase activity. We now demonstrate that IHPK2 binds to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor (TRAF) 2 and interferes with phosphorylation of transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), thereby inhibiting NF-kappaB signaling. IHPK2 contains two sites required for TRAF2 binding, Ser-347 and Ser-359. Compared with wild type IHPK2-transfected cells, cells expressing S347A and S359A mutations displayed 3.5-fold greater TAK1 activation following TNF-alpha. This mutant demonstrated a 6-10-fold increase in NF-kappaB DNA binding following TNF-alpha compared with wild type IHPK2-expressing cells in which NF-kappaB DNA binding was inhibited. Cells transfected with wild type IHPK2 or IHPK2 mutants that lacked S347A and S359A mutations displayed enhanced terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling staining following TNF-alpha. We believe that IHPK2-TRAF2 binding leads to attenuation of TAK1- and NF-kappaB-mediated signaling and is partially responsible for the apoptotic activity of IHPK2.

Abstract
Immunosuppressants have a narrow therapeutic index, and pharmacokinetic variability negatively affects long-term outcome of transplantation. Recently, it has become clear that active transport is a major determinant of the inter-and intraindividual variability of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of immunosuppressants. Active transport plays a key role in (1) the poor correlation between oral doses and systemic exposure of cyclosporine, tacrolimus, sirolimus, and everolimus, (2) tissue distribution including distribution into lymphocytes, (3) hepatic and intestinal metabolism, (4) the pharmacokinetic variability of immunosuppressants after oral dosing, (5) drug-drug interactions, (6) disease-drug interactions, and (7) age, gender, and ethnicity-based differences in pharmacokinetics of immunosuppressants. Those new insights may significantly improve patient management and long-term outcome not only by reducing pharmacokinetic variability and avoidance of drug-drug interactions but also by identification of sensitive patient populations. They will also significantly impact preclinical and clinical development strategies of new immunosuppressants.

Abstract
Previously, we have reported that overexpression of IHPK2 (inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 2) sensitized NIH-OVCAR-3 ovarian carcinoma cell lines to the growth-suppressive and apoptotic effects of IFN-beta (interferon-beta) treatment and gamma-irradiation. In the present study, we demonstrate that Apo2L/TRAIL (Apo2L/tumour-necrosis-factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) is a critical mediator of IFN-induced apoptosis in these cells. Compared with IFN-alpha2, IFN-beta is a more potent inducer of Apo2L/TRAIL and IHPK2 activity. Overexpression of IHPK2 converts IFN-alpha2-resistant cells into cells that readily undergo apoptosis in response to IFN-alpha2. In untreated cells transfected with IHPK2-eGFP (where eGFP stands for enhanced green fluorescent protein), the fusion protein is localized to the cytoplasm and perinuclear region. After treatment with IFN-beta, IHPK2-eGFP translocated to the nucleus. In cells transfected with mutant IHPK2-NLS-eGFP (where NLS stands for nuclear localization sequence), containing point mutations in the NLS, the fusion protein remained trapped in the cytoplasm, even after IFN-beta treatment. Cells expressing mutant NLS mutation were more resistant to IFN-beta. The IC50 value of IHPK2-expressing cells was 2-3-fold lower than vector control. The IC50 value of NLS-mutant-expressing cells was 3-fold higher than vector control. Blocking antibodies to Apo2L/TRAIL or transfection with a dominant negative Apo2L/TRAIL receptor (DR5Delta) inhibited the antiproliferative effects of IFN-beta. Thus overexpression of IHPK2 enhanced apoptotic effects of IFN-beta, and expression of the NLS mutant conferred resistance to IFN-beta. Apo2L/TRAIL expression and nuclear localization of IHPK2 are both required for the induction of apoptosis by IFN-beta in ovarian carcinoma.

Abstract
Rat multidrug resistant protein 2 (Mrp2; Abcc2), an ATP-driven pump located on the canalicular domain of hepatocytes, exports glutathione S-conjugates (GS-X) and GSH among its wide variety of substrates. Previous studies have shown that chelerythrine (CHEL), a quaternary benzophenanthridine cation, reacts with GSH to form a reversible adduct under physiological conditions. Here we report that CHEL can strongly stimulate GSH efflux by Mrp2, when it is constitutively expressed in polarized canine kidney cells, thereby leading to the depletion of cellular GSH. Transepithelial transport experiments indicate that Mrp2 transports GSH and CHEL with a 1:1 stoichiometry, which can be readily inhibited by GS-bimane, a GS-X substrate for Mrp2. Moreover, CHEL can block Mrp2-mediated leukotriene C4 uptake by membrane vesicles with an IC50 approximately 100 microM in the presence of GSH, but not S-methyl GSH or ophthalmic acid. Thus the thiol group of GSH is required for inhibition of Mrp2 in the presence of CHEL. Our results suggest that CHEL stimulates GSH efflux by forming a reversible GS-CHEL adduct, which is transported by Mrp2 and dissociates extracellularly.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance associated protein 2 (MRP2/ABCC2), expressed on the bile canalicular membrane, plays an important role in the biliary excretion of various kinds of substrates. In addition, MRP2 is also expressed on the apical membrane of epithelial cells such as enterocytes. It is possible that the inter-individual difference in the function of MRP2 affects the drug disposition. In the present article, we will summarize the physiological and pharmacological role of MRP2, particularly focusing on the factors affecting its transport function such as single nucleotide polymorphisms and/or the induction/down regulation of this transporter. Mutations found in patients suffering from the Dubin-Johnson syndrome, along with the amino acid residues which are involved in supporting the transport activity of MRP2, are also summarized.

Abstract
Overexpression of the P-glycoprotein/multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) gene is closely associated with the clinical outcome of various malignancies, and it is involved in responses to some anticancer chemotherapeutic agents including doxorubicin. Six human MRP subfamily members (MRP2-7) with structural similarities to MRP1 have been identified. Recently, the relationships between MRP2 and MRP3 expression levels of some cancer cells and drug sensitivity to doxorubicin have been reported, but the relationship between the clinical samples and drug sensitivity remains unclear. We determined the expressions of the MDR1, MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 gene in bladder cancer during the clinical course and sought to learn whether the expression was correlated with drug responses to doxorubicin. Doxorubicin, used in chemotherapeutic treatment including intravesical and systemic chemotherapy, is an important anticancer agent for the treatment of bladder cancer. We used quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis for our study, and the sensitivity to doxorubicin in bladder cancer was determined using the in vitro succinate dehydrogenase inhibition test. Using 47 clinical samples of bladder cancer, we confirmed the significant correlation of MDR1, MRP1 and MRP3 mRNA levels with resistance to doxorubicin. We showed that the expression of MDR1, MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 in recurrent tumors and residual tumors after chemotherapeutic treatment was higher than that in untreated primary tumors. In particular, the MDR1 expression in residual tumors was 5.7-fold higher than that in untreated primary tumors.

Abstract
1. In the present study, we have examined the effects of the quinolones norfloxacin (NFLX), enoxacin (ENX), ofloxacin (OFLX), tosufloxacin (TFLX), lomefloxacin (LFLX), sparfloxacin (SPFX) and grepafloxacin (GPFX) on the efflux of doxorubicin from mouse leukaemia P388/ADR cells expressing P-glycoprotein. The relationship between their partition coefficients (hydrophobicity) and effluxing potencies was also elucidated. 2. Both TFLX and SPFX strongly increased the intracellular accumulation of doxorubicin (5 micromol/L) in P388/ADR cells, but had no effect on P388/S cells not expressing P-glycoprotein. The rank of order of the potency of the quinolones (TFLX > SPFX > GPFX > NFLX) was not related directly to their hydrophobicity. These results suggest that some quinolones can reverse anticancer drug resistance. 3. Because GPFX is more highly excreted into the bile than other known quinolones, the effects of doxorubicin (10 mg/kg) or the well-known inhibitors of P-glycoprotein, namely cyclosporine A (10 mg/kg) and erythromycin (100 mg/kg), on the biliary excretion of GPFX at steady state was studied in rats. 4. Doxorubicin, cyclosporine A and erythromycin significantly decreased the biliary clearance of GPFX. Cyclosporine A and erythromycin had a much stronger inhibitory effect on the biliary excretion of GPFX than doxorubicin. These results suggest the possibility that GPFX is, at least in part, excreted into the bile by a P-glycoprotein-mediated transport mechanism.

Abstract
Human organic anion transporting polypeptide 2 (OATP2/SLC21A6) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2/ABCC2) play important roles in the vectorial transport of organic anions across hepatocytes. In the present study, we have established a double-transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK II) cell monolayer, which expresses both OATP2 and MRP2 on basal and apical membranes, respectively. The basal-to-apical transport of 17 beta estradiol 17 beta-d-glucuronide (E(2)17 beta G), pravastatin, and leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)), which are substrates of OATP2 and MRP2, was significantly higher than that in the opposite direction in the double-transfected cells. Such vectorial transport was also observed for taurolithocholate sulfate, which is transported by rat oatp1 and Mrp2. The K(m) values of E(2)17 beta G and pravastatin for the basal-to-apical flux were 27.9 and 24.3 microm, respectively, which were comparable with those reported for OATP2. Moreover, the MRP2-mediated export of E(2)17 beta G across the apical membrane was not saturated. In contrast, basal-to-apical transport of estrone-3-sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, which are significantly transported by OATP2, but not by MRP2, was not stimulated by MRP2 expression. The double-transfected MDCK II monolayer expressing both OATP2 and MRP2 may be used to analyze the hepatic vectorial transport of organic anions and to screen the transport profiles of new drug candidates.

Abstract
Interferons (IFNs) regulate the expression of genes that mediate their antiviral, antitumor, and immunomodulatory actions. We have previously shown that IFN-beta suppresses growth of human ovarian carcinoma xenografts in vivo and induces apoptosis of ovarian carcinoma cells in vitro. To investigate mechanisms of IFN-beta-induced apoptosis we employed an antisense technical knockout approach to identify gene products that mediate cell death and have isolated several regulators of interferon-induced death (RIDs). In this investigation, we have characterized one of the RIDs, RID-2. Sequence analysis revealed that RID-2 was identical to human inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 2 (IP6K2). IP6K2 is post-transcriptionally induced by IFN-beta in ovarian carcinoma cells. A mutant IP6K2 with substitutions in the putative inositol phosphate binding domain abrogates IFN-beta-induced apoptosis. These studies identify a novel function for IP6K2 in cell growth regulation and apoptosis.

Abstract
To examine a role of DNA polymerase zeta in somatic hypermutation, we generated transgenic mice that express antisense RNA to a portion of mouse REV3, the gene encoding this polymerase. These mice express high levels of antisense RNA, significantly reducing the levels of endogenous mouse REV3 transcript. Following immunization to a hapten-protein complex, transgenic mice mounted vigorous Ab responses, accomplished the switch to IgG, and formed numerous germinal centers. However, in most transgenic animals, the generation of high affinity Abs was delayed. In addition, accumulation of somatic mutations in the V(H) genes of memory B cells from transgenic mice was decreased, particularly among those that generate amino acid replacements that enhance affinity of the B cell receptor to the hapten. These data implicate DNA polymerase zeta, a nonreplicative polymerase, in the process of affinity maturation, possibly through a role in somatic hypermutation, clonal selection, or both.

Abstract
The multidrug resistance protein (MRP) family belongs to the ATP-binding cassette superfamily (ABC) of transporters, which are involved in ATP-dependent transport of hydrophobic compounds. One of the MRP family, MRP1, is partially associated with the multidrug resistance phenotype in brain tumors. In this study, we asked whether another MRP family gene, MRP3, could affect drug sensitivity to anticancer agents in human glioma cell lines and clinical glioma specimens. We first produced two antisense transfectants by introduction of antisense MRP3 cDNA into the glioma cell line NHG2, which endogenously expresses MRP3. The two MRP3 antisense transfectants showed 2- to 5-fold increases in drug sensitivity to etoposide and cisplatin compared with NHG2 cells, but their sensitivity to vincristine or nitrosourea was not changed. Two MRP3 cDNA sense transfectants of pig kidney cell lines showed 4- to 6-fold drug resistance to etoposide, but only 1.4- to 1.5-fold to cisplatin. We next compared the mRNA levels of four ABC transporters, multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1), MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 in clinical samples, including 34 patients with gliomas, by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. In some of the clinical samples, increased expression of MRP1 and MRP3 was apparent in malignant gliomas. In situ hybridization revealed that glioma cells were stained with MRP3 probe. MRP3 may modulate drug sensitivity to certain anticancer agents in human gliomas.

Abstract
Multidrurg resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2)/canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter (cMOAT) is involved in the ATP-dependent export of organic anions across the bile canalicular membrane. To identify functional amino acid residues that play essential roles in the substrate transport, each of 13 basic residues around transmembrane regions (TMs) 6-17 were replaced with alanine. Wild type and mutant proteins were expressed in COS-7 cells, and the transport activity was measured as the excretion of glutathione-methylfluorescein. Four mutants, K324A (TM6), K483A (TM9), R1210A (TM16), and R1257A (TM17), showed decreased transport activity, and another mutant, K578A (TM11), showed decreased protein expression. These five mutants were normally delivered to the cell surface similar to the other fully active mutants and wild type MRP2. The importance of TM6, TM16, and TM17 in the transport function of MRP2 is consistent with the previous observation indicating the importance of the corresponding TM1, TM11, and TM12 on P-glycoprotein (Loo, T. W., and Clarke, D. M. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 35388-35392). Another observation that MRP2 inhibitor, cyclosporine A, failed to inhibit R1230A specifically, indicated the existence of its binding site within TM16.

Abstract
We have previously shown that cloned rat multidrug resistance-associated protein 3 (Mrp3) has the ability to transport organic anions such as 17beta-estradiol 17-beta-D-glucuronide (E(2)17betaG) and has a different substrate specificity from MRP1 and MRP2 in that glutathione conjugates are poor substrates for Mrp3 (Hirohashi, T., Suzuki, H., and Sugiyama, Y. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 15181-15185). In the present study, the involvement of Mrp3 in the transport of endogenous bile salts was investigated using membrane vesicles from LLC-PK1 cells transfected with rat Mrp3 cDNA. The ATP-dependent uptake of [(3)H]taurocholate (TC), [(14)C]glycocholate (GC), [(3)H]taurochenodeoxycholate-3-sulfate (TCDC-S), and [(3)H]taurolithocholate-3-sulfate (TLC-S) was markedly stimulated by Mrp3 transfection in LLC-PK1 cells. The extent of Mrp3-mediated transport of bile salts was in the order, TLC-S > TCDC-S > TC > GC. The K(m) and V(max) values for the uptake of TC and TLC-S were K(m) = 15.9 +/- 4.9 microM and V(max) = 50.1 +/- 9.3 pmol/min/mg of protein and K(m) = 3.06 +/- 0.57 microM and V(max) = 161.9 +/- 21.7 pmol/min/mg of protein, respectively. At 55 nM [(3)H]E(2)17betaG and 1.2 microM [(3)H]TC, the apparent K(m) values for ATP were 1.36 and 0.66 mM, respectively. TC, GC, and TCDC-S inhibited the transport of [(3)H]E(2)17betaG and [(3)H]TC to the same extent with an apparent IC(50) of approximately 10 microM. TLC-S inhibited the uptake of [(3)H]E(2)17betaG and [(3)H]TC most potently (IC(50) of approximately 1 microM) among the bile salts examined, whereas cholate weakly inhibited the uptake (IC(50) approximately 75 microM). Although TC and GC are transported by bile salt export pump/sister of P-glycoprotein, but not by MRP2, and TCDC-S and TLC-S are transported by MRP2, but not by bile salt export pump/sister of P-glycoprotein, it was found that Mrp3 accepts all these bile salts as substrates. This information, together with the finding that MRP3 is extensively expressed on the basolateral membrane of human cholangiocytes, suggests that MRP3/Mrp3 plays a significant role in the cholehepatic circulation of bile salts.

Abstract
The human multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2), also termed as the canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter (cMOAT), is a member of the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter superfamily. In the liver, MRP2 mediates the multispecific efflux of various types of organic anions, including glucuronate, sulfate, and glutathione conjugates, across the canalicular hepatocyte membrane to the bile. To investigate how the MRP2 gene is expressed in liver cells, the 5'-flanking region of the human MRP2 gene was isolated from a human placental genomic library. Sequence analysis of the MRP2 promoter showed a number of consensus binding sites for both ubiquitous and liver-enriched transcription factors. Transfection of human hepatic HepG2 cells with a series of 5'-deleted promoter luciferase constructs identified a putative silencer element localized in the -1,659/-491 region and a liver-specific positive regulatory element localized in the -491/-258 region. This latter region contained the liver-abundant transcription factor CCAAT-enhancer binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta). The transcriptional activity of the promoter construct containing a mutation in the C/EBPbeta binding site was significantly decreased in HepG2 cells. This study suggests that C/EBPbeta (-356 to -343) may regulate the liver expression of the MRP2 gene.
