Abstract
Kidney failure, the decrease of kidney function below a threshold necessary to support life, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 406,504 individuals in the UK Biobank, identifying 430 loci affecting kidney function in middle-aged adults. To investigate the cell types affected by these loci, we integrated the GWAS with human kidney candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) identified using single-cell assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (scATAC-seq). Overall, 56% of kidney function heritability localized to kidney tubule epithelial cCREs and an additional 7% to kidney podocyte cCREs. Thus, most heritable differences in adult kidney function are a result of altered gene expression in these two cell types. Using enhancer assays, allele-specific scATAC-seq and machine learning, we found that many kidney function variants alter tubule epithelial cCRE chromatin accessibility and function. Using CRISPRi, we determined which genes some of these cCREs regulate, implicating NDRG1, CCNB1 and STC1 in human kidney function.

Biochem Pharmacol 2024; 229:116514. [PMID: 39236937 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116514] [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: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 08/10/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
Organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2/SLC22A2) is predominantly localized on the basolateral membranes of renal tubular epithelial cells and plays a crucial role in the renal secretion of various cationic drugs. Although variations in substrate selectivity among renal organic cation transport systems across species have been reported, the characteristics of OCT2 remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that atenolol, a β1-selective adrenergic antagonist, is transported almost exclusively by human OCT2, contrasting with OCT2s from other selected species. Using chimeric constructs between human OCT2 (hOCT2) and the highly homologous monkey OCT2 (monOCT2), along with site-directed mutagenesis, we identified non-conserved amino acids Val8, Ala31, Ala34, Tyr222, Tyr245, Ala270, Ile394, and Leu503 as pivotal for hOCT2-mediated atenolol transport. Kinetic analysis revealed that atenolol was transported by hOCT2 with a 12-fold lower affinity than MPP+, a typical OCT2 substrate. The inhibitory effect of atenolol on MPP+ transport was 6200-fold lower than that observed for MPP+ on atenolol transport. Additionally, we observed weaker inhibitory effects on MPP+ transport compared to atenolol transport with ten different OCT2 substrates. Altogether, this study suggests that eight hOCT2-specific amino acids constitute the low-affinity recognition site for atenolol transport, indicating differences in OCT2-mediated drug elimination between humans and highly homologous monkeys. Our findings underscore the importance of understanding species-specific differences in drug transport mechanisms, shedding light on potential variations in drug disposition and aiding in drug development.

Evaluation of 14 PFAS for permeability and organic anion transporter interactions: Implications for renal clearance in humans. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 361:142390. [PMID: 38801906 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142390] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2024] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) encompass a diverse group of synthetic fluorinated chemicals known to elicit adverse health effects in animals and humans. However, only a few studies investigated the mechanisms underlying clearance of PFAS. Herein, the relevance of human renal transporters and permeability to clearance and bioaccumulation for 14 PFAS containing three to eleven perfluorinated carbon atoms (ηpfc = 3-11) and several functional head-groups was investigated. Apparent permeabilities and interactions with human transporters were measured using in vitro cell-based assays, including the MDCK-LE cell line, and HEK293 stable transfected cell lines expressing organic anion transporter (OAT) 1-4 and organic cation transporter (OCT) 2. The results generated align with the Extended Clearance Classification System (ECCS), affirming that permeability, molecular weight, and ionization serve as robust predictors of clearance and renal transporter engagement. Notably, PFAS with low permeability (ECCS 3A and 3B) exhibited substantial substrate activity for OAT1 and OAT3, indicative of active renal secretion. Furthermore, we highlight the potential contribution of OAT4-mediated reabsorption to the renal clearance of PFAS with short ηpfc, such as perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS). Our data advance our mechanistic understanding of renal clearance of PFAS in humans, provide useful input parameters for toxicokinetic models, and have broad implications for toxicological evaluation and regulatory considerations.

Abstract
Determination of serum creatinine concentrations and subsequent calculation of estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) is a cornerstone of clinical medicine. Crucial clinical decisions such as drug treatment discontinuations are based on eGFR calculated from serum creatinine measurements. However, creatinine is not only filtered in the kidneys, but also actively secreted into urine. Creatinine transporters such as OCT2, OCT3, MATE1, MATE2-K, and OAT2 expressed in proximal tubular cells are responsible for active renal secretion of creatinine. Multiple drugs (e.g., oral antitumor drugs) inhibit these transporters thereby causing a pseudo-worsening of kidney function with an increase in serum creatinine concentrations and a decrease in eGFR while other methods for eGFR determination (e.g., by cystatin C) reveal normal kidney function. Since US Prescribing Information (PI) and European Summaries of Product Characteristics (SmPCs) are the most relevant source of information for physicians, we investigated the quality of information in US PI/German SmPCs of drugs with clear evidence for pseudo-worsening of kidney function. 514 drugs putatively interacting with creatinine transporters were identified. For 149 of those drugs, an increase in serum creatinine concentrations has been described. Available data confirmed the existence of pseudo-worsening of kidney function for 30 of those drugs, for the remaining 119 drugs existing data are insufficient. Only 23.5% (12/51) of the 30 drugs' PI/SmPCs contained unambiguous statements on this proven pseudo-worsening of kidney function and gave clear recommendations for clinical management. Taken together, inadequate information provided in PI or SmPCs on the pseudo-worsening of kidney function poses patients at unnecessary risks.

Long-term impact of immediate versus deferred antiretroviral therapy on kidney health in people with HIV. Kidney Int 2024; 106:136-144.

Abstract
People with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are at risk for chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to HIV and antiretroviral therapy (ART) nephrotoxicity. Immediate ART initiation reduces mortality and is now the standard of care, but the long-term impact of prolonged ART exposure on CKD is unknown. To evaluate this, the Strategic Timing of Antiretroviral Treatment (START) trial randomized 4,684 ART-naïve adults with CD4 cell count under 500 cells/mm3 to immediate versus deferred ART. We previously reported a small but statistically significantly greater decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over a median of 2.1 years in participants randomized to deferred versus immediate ART. Here, we compare the incidence of CKD events and changes in eGFR and urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) in participants randomized to immediate versus deferred ART during extended follow-up. Over a median of 9.3 years, eight participants experienced kidney failure or kidney-related death, three in the immediate and five in the deferred ART arms, respectively. Over a median of five years of more comprehensive follow-up, the annual rate of eGFR decline was 1.19 mL/min/1.73m2/year, with no significant difference between treatment arms (difference deferred - immediate arm 0.055; 95% confidence interval -0.106, 0.217 mL/min/1.73m2). Results were similar in models adjusted for baseline covariates associated with CKD, including UACR and APOL1 genotype. Similarly, there was no significant difference between treatment arms in incidence of confirmed UACR 30 mg/g or more (odds ratio 1.13; 95% confidence interval 0.85, 1.51). Thus, our findings provide the most definitive evidence to date in support of the long-term safety of early ART with respect to kidney health.

Abstract
Kidney disease is highly heritable; however, the causal genetic variants, the cell types in which these variants function, and the molecular mechanisms underlying kidney disease remain largely unknown. To identify genetic loci affecting kidney function, we performed a GWAS using multiple kidney function biomarkers and identified 462 loci. To begin to investigate how these loci affect kidney function, we generated single-cell chromatin accessibility (scATAC-seq) maps of the human kidney and identified candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) for kidney podocytes, tubule epithelial cells, and kidney endothelial, stromal, and immune cells. Kidney tubule epithelial cCREs explained 58% of kidney function SNP-heritability and kidney podocyte cCREs explained an additional 6.5% of SNP-heritability. In contrast, little kidney function heritability was explained by kidney endothelial, stromal, or immune cell-specific cCREs. Through functionally informed fine-mapping, we identified putative causal kidney function variants and their corresponding cCREs. Using kidney scATAC-seq data, we created a deep learning model (which we named ChromKid) to predict kidney cell type-specific chromatin accessibility from sequence. ChromKid and allele specific kidney scATAC-seq revealed that many fine-mapped kidney function variants locally change chromatin accessibility in tubule epithelial cells. Enhancer assays confirmed that fine-mapped kidney function variants alter tubule epithelial regulatory element function. To map the genes which these regulatory elements control, we used CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) to target these regulatory elements in tubule epithelial cells and assessed changes in gene expression. CRISPRi of enhancers harboring kidney function variants regulated NDRG1 and RBPMS expression. Thus, inherited differences in tubule epithelial NDRG1 and RBPMS expression may predispose to kidney disease in humans. We conclude that genetic variants affecting tubule epithelial regulatory element function account for most SNP-heritability of human kidney function. This work provides an experimental approach to identify the variants, regulatory elements, and genes involved in polygenic disease.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus resulting from hyperglycemia stands as the primary cause of diabetic kidney disease. Emerging evidence suggests that plasma concentrations of soy isoflavones, substances with well-established antidiabetic properties, rise following supplemental inulin administration. The investigation encompassed 36 male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats segregated into two cohorts: non-diabetic and diabetic, induced with type 2 diabetes (high-fat diet + two intraperitoneal streptozotocin injections). Each cohort was further divided into three subgroups (n = 6): control, isoflavone-treated, and isoflavone plus inulin-treated rats. Tail blood glucose and ketone levels were gauged. Upon termination, blood samples were drawn directly from the heart for urea, creatinine, and HbA1c/HbF analyses. One kidney per rat underwent histological (H-E) and immunohistochemical assessments (anti-AQP1, anti-AQP2, anti-AVPR2, anti-SLC22A2, anti-ACC-alpha, anti-SREBP-1). The remaining kidney underwent fatty acid methyl ester analysis. Results unveiled notable alterations in water intake, body and kidney mass, kidney morphology, fatty acids, AQP2, AVPR2, AcetylCoA, SREBP-1, blood urea, creatinine, and glucose levels in control rats with induced type 2 diabetes. Isoflavone supplementation exhibited favorable effects on plasma urea, plasma urea/creatinine ratio, glycemia, water intake, and kidney mass, morphology, and function in type 2 diabetic rats. Additional inulin supplementation frequently modulated the action of soy isoflavones.

Abstract
High-throughput drug screening is crucial for advancing healthcare through drug discovery. However, a significant limitation arises from availablein vitromodels using conventional 2D cell culture, which lack the proper phenotypes and architectures observed in three-dimensional (3D) tissues. Recent advancements in stem cell biology have facilitated the generation of organoids-3D tissue constructs that mimic human organsin vitro. Kidney organoids, derived from human pluripotent stem cells, represent a significant breakthrough in disease representation. They encompass major kidney cell types organized within distinct nephron segments, surrounded by stroma and endothelial cells. This tissue allows for the assessment of structural alterations such as nephron loss, a characteristic of chronic kidney disease. Despite these advantages, the complexity of 3D structures has hindered the use of organoids for large-scale drug screening, and the drug screening pipelines utilizing these complexin vitromodels remain to be established for high-throughput screening. In this study, we address the technical limitations of kidney organoids through fully automated 3D imaging, aided by a machine-learning approach for automatic profiling of nephron segment-specific epithelial morphometry. Kidney organoids were exposed to the nephrotoxic agent cisplatin to model severe acute kidney injury. An U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug library was tested for therapeutic and nephrotoxicity screening. The fully automated pipeline of 3D image acquisition and analysis identified nephrotoxic or therapeutic drugs during cisplatin chemotherapy. The nephrotoxic potential of these drugs aligned with previousin vivoand human reports. Additionally, Imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in hematological malignancies, was identified as a potential preventive therapy for cisplatin-induced kidney injury. Our proof-of-concept report demonstrates that the automated screening process, using 3D morphometric assays with kidney organoids, enables high-throughput screening for nephrotoxicity and therapeutic assessment in 3D tissue constructs.

Pharmacol Res Perspect 2024; 12:e1191. [PMID: 38527949 PMCID: PMC10963303 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.1191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/02/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Ulotaront (SEP-363856) is a TAAR1 agonist, with 5-HT1A agonist activity, currently in clinical development for the treatment of schizophrenia. In vitro studies indicate ulotaront is an OCT2-specific inhibitor with IC50 of 1.27 μM. The primary objective of this study is to determine if a single dose of ulotaront affects the PK of metformin, an index substrate of OCT2, in subjects with schizophrenia. In a randomized, single-blind, 2-period crossover study, 25 adults with schizophrenia received a single dose of metformin-HCl 850 mg (approximately 663 mg metformin) with and without coadministration of 100 mg ulotaront. The plasma samples were analyzed by fully validated LC-MS/MS methods. The primary PK endpoints for metformin were AUCinf, AUClast, Cmax, and tmax. The highest-anticipated clinical dose of ulotaront (100 mg) had no statistically significant effect on the PK of a single dose of metformin based on Cmax and AUCinf. Geometric least squares mean ratios were 89.98% and 110.63%, respectively, with the 90% confidential interval (CI) for each parameter contained within 80%-125%. Median tmax was comparable across the treatments. Ulotaront does not act as a perpetrator of OCT2-mediated DDI against metformin. Co-administration of ulotaront is not expected to require dose adjustment of metformin or other drugs cleared by OCT2.

Abstract
Tubular secretion is a primary mechanism along with glomerular filtration for renal elimination of drugs and toxicants into urine. Organic cation transporters (OCTs) and multidrug and toxic extrusion (MATE) transporters facilitate the active secretion of cationic substrates, including drugs such as metformin and endogenous cations. We hypothesized that administration of cimetidine, an Oct/Mate inhibitor, will result in increased plasma levels and decreased renal clearance of metformin and endogenous Oct/Mate substrates in rats. A paired rat pharmacokinetic study was carried out in which metformin (5 mg/kg, intravenous) was administered as an exogenous substrate of Oct/Mate transporters to six Sprague-Dawley rats with and without cimetidine (100 mg/kg, intraperitoneal). When co-administered with cimetidine, metformin area under the curve increased significantly by 3.2-fold, and its renal clearance reduced significantly by 73%. Untargeted metabolomics was performed to investigate the effect of cimetidine on endogenous metabolome in the blood and urine samples. Over 8,000 features (metabolites) were detected in the blood, which were shortlisted using optimized criteria, i.e., a significant increase (P value < 0.05) in metabolite peak intensity in the cimetidine-treated group, reproducible retention time, and quality of chromatogram peak. The metabolite hits were classified into three groups that can potentially distinguish inhibition of i) extra-renal uptake transport or catabolism, ii) renal Octs, and iii) renal efflux transporters or metabolite formation. The metabolomics approach identified novel putative endogenous substrates of cationic transporters that could be tested as potential biomarkers to predict Oct/Mate transporter mediated drug-drug interactions in the preclinical stages. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Endogenous substrates of renal transporters in animal models could be used as potential biomarkers to predict renal drug-drug interactions in early drug development. Here we demonstrated that cimetidine, an inhibitor of organic cation transporters (Oct/Mate), could alter the pharmacokinetics of metformin and endogenous cationic substrates in rats. Several putative endogenous metabolites of Oct/Mate transporters were identified using metabolomics approach, which could be tested as potential transporter biomarkers to predict renal drug-drug interaction of Oct/Mate substrates.

Significance of Organic Anion Transporter 2 and Organic Cation Transporter 2 in Creatinine Clearance: Mechanistic Evaluation Using Freshly Prepared Human Primary Renal Proximal Tubule Cells. J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2024; 388:201-208. [PMID: 37977812 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.123.001890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Creatinine, a clinical marker for kidney function, is predominantly cleared by glomerular filtration, with active tubular secretion contributing to about 30% of its renal clearance. Recent studies suggested the potential involvement of organic anion transporter (OAT)2, in addition to the previously known organic cation transporter (OCT)2-mediated basolateral uptake, in creatinine active secretion. Here we characterized the transport mechanisms of creatinine using transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK)293 cells and freshly prepared human primary renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (hPTCs). Creatinine showed transport by OAT2 in transfected HEK293 cells. In addition, both creatinine and metformin showed transport by OCT2 and multidrug and toxin extrusion pump (MATE)1 and MATE2K, while penciclovir was selective for OAT2. Time-dependent cell accumulation was observed for creatinine and metformin in hPTCs. Their accumulation was increased by pyrimethamine but inhibited by decynium-22, likely due to differential inhibition of OCT2 versus MATEs. Additionally, indomethacin (an OAT2 inhibitor) reduced penciclovir uptake (∼75%) in hPTCs illustrating functional OAT2 activity. However, no modulation of creatinine and metformin cell accumulation was apparent with indomethacin. Creatinine transport characteristics in the presence of inhibitors approached those of metformin, an OCT2/MATE substrate, but were distinct from those of penciclovir, an OAT2-selective substrate. Moreover, indomethacin showed no significant effect on the basolateral-to-apical transport and net secretion of creatinine across hPTC monolayers. Collectively, the functional studies suggest OCT2 as the primary basolateral uptake mechanism and that OAT2 has a minimal role, in creatinine renal secretion. Our results highlight the utility of hPTCs to enable the functional assessment of renal transport mechanisms. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Our results obtained with primary hPTCs indicate that OCT2/MATE (vs. OAT2) play a major role in the active renal secretion of creatinine. Quantitative pharmacokinetic models should therefore focus on OCT2/MATE when describing serum creatinine and creatinine clearance modulation by inhibitor drugs and genotype- or disease-related activity changes. The present study highlights the utility of freshly isolated hPTCs to support solute carrier phenotyping to enable the functional assessment of renal transport mechanisms.

Abstract
Observational data published over the past decade have suggested that concomitant receipt of piperacillin-tazobactam with vancomycin significantly increases the risk for vancomycin-associated acute kidney injury. Importantly, however, there is significant controversy surrounding this association, and debate continues about the veracity of the risk. Given this ongoing debate, the recently published "Cefepime vs Piperacillin-Tazobactam in Adults Hospitalized With Acute Infection: The ACORN Randomized Clinical Trial" is of tremendous interest to the infectious diseases community. In ACORN, the authors conclude that there was no association between receipt of cefepime or piperacillin-tazobactam and the primary outcome of acute kidney injury or death by day 14, despite the fact that >75% of the population received concomitant vancomycin. In this perspective, we provide a brief history on the controversy, provide a critical analysis of the ACORN findings, and ultimately discuss how these data help inform the ongoing debate.

Abstract
Drug-induced kidney disease (DIKD) accounts for about one-fourth of all cases of acute kidney injury (AKI) in hospitalized patients, especially in critically ill setting. There is no standard definition or classification system of DIKD. To address this, a phenotype definition of DIKD using expert consensus was introduced in 2015. Recently, a novel framework for DIKD classification was proposed that incorporated functional change and tissue damage biomarkers. Medications were stratified into four categories, including "dysfunction without damage," "damage without dysfunction," "both dysfunction and damage," and "neither dysfunction nor damage" using this novel framework along with predominant mechanism(s) of nephrotoxicity for drugs and drug classes. Here, we briefly describe mechanisms and provide examples of drugs/drug classes related to the categories in the proposed framework. In addition, the possible movement of a patient's kidney disease between certain categories in specific conditions is considered. Finally, opportunities and barriers to adoption of this framework for DIKD classification in real clinical practice are discussed. This new classification system allows congruencies for DIKD with the proposed categorization of AKI, offering clarity as well as consistency for clinicians and researchers.

Abstract
Inflammation can regulate hepatic drug metabolism enzymes and transporters. The impact of inflammation on renal drug transporters remains to be elucidated. We aimed to quantify the effect of inflammation (caused by acute pyelonephritis) on the in vivo activity of renal OAT1/3, using the probe drug furosemide. Pregnant women (second or third trimester) received a single oral dose of furosemide 40 mg during acute pyelonephritis (Phase 1; n = 7) and after its resolution (Phase 2; n = 7; by treatment with intravenous cefuroxime 750 mg TID for 3-7 days), separated by 10 to 14 days. The IL-6, IFN-γ, TNF-α, MCP-1, and C-reactive protein plasma concentrations were higher in Phase I vs. Phase II. The pregnant women had a lower geometric mean [CV%] furosemide CLsecretion (3.9 [43.4] vs. 6.7 [43.8] L/h) and formation clearance to the glucuronide (1.1 [85.9] vs. 2.3 [64.1] L/h) in Phase 1 vs. Phase 2. Inflammation reduced the in vivo activity of renal OAT1/3 (mediating furosemide CLsecretion) and UGT1A9/1A1 (mediating the formation of furosemide glucuronide) by approximately 40% and 54%, respectively, presumably by elevating the plasma cytokine concentrations. The dosing regimens of narrow therapeutic window OAT drug substrates may need to be adjusted during inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
The treatment of patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been revolutionised by the development of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) that target specific HCV proteins involved in viral replication. The first DAAs were associated with clinical problems such as adverse drug reactions and pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Current FDA/EMA-approved treatments are combinations of DAAs that simultaneously target the HCV N5A-protein, the HCV N5B-polymerase and the HCV NS3/4A-protease. Adverse events and DDIs are less likely with these DAA combinations but several DDIs of potential clinical significance remain. Much of the available information on the interaction of DAAs with CYP drug-metabolising enzymes and influx and efflux transporters is contained in regulatory summaries and is focused on DDIs of likely clinical importance. Important DDIs perpetrated by current DAAs include increases in the pharmacokinetic exposure to statins and dabigatran. Some mechanistic information can be deduced. Although the free concentrations of DAAs in serum are very low, a number of these DDIs are likely mediated by the inhibition of systemic influx transporters, especially OATP1B1/1B3. Other DDIs may arise by DAA-mediated inhibition of intestinal efflux transporters, which increases the systemic concentrations of some coadministered drugs. Conversely, DAAs are victims of DDIs mediated by cyclosporin, ketoconazole, omeprazole and HIV antiretroviral drug combinations, especially when boosted by ritonavir and, to a lesser extent, cobicistat. In addition, concurrent administration of inducers, such as rifampicin, carbamazepine and efavirenz, decreases exposure to some DAAs. Drug-drug interactions that increase the accumulation of HCV N3/4A-protease inhibitors like grazoprevir may exacerbate hepatic injury in HCV patients.

Abstract
Creatinine is a common biomarker of renal function and is secreted in the renal tubular cells via drug transporters, such as organic cation transporter 2 and multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) 1/2-K. To differentiate between drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and drug interactions through the renal transporter, it has been examined whether these transporter inhibitions quantitatively explained increases in serum creatinine (SCr) at their clinically relevant concentrations using drugs without any changes in renal function. For such renal transporter inhibitors and recently approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), this mini-review describes clinical increases in SCr and inhibitory potentials against the renal transporters. Most cases of SCr elevations can be explained by considering the renal transporter inhibitions based on unbound maximum plasma concentrations, except for drugs associated with obvious changes in renal function. SCr increases for cobicistat, dolutegravir, and dronedarone, and some TKIs were significantly underestimated, and these underestimations were suggested to be associated with low plasma unbound fractions. Sensitivity analysis of SCr elevations regarding inhibitory potentials of MATE1/2-K demonstrated that typical inhibitors such as cimetidine, DX-619, pyrimethamine, and trimethoprim could give false interpretations of AKI according to the criteria based on relative or absolute levels of SCr elevations. Recent progress and current challenges of physiologically-based pharmacokinetics modeling for creatinine disposition were also summarized. Although it should be noted for the potential impact of in vitro assay designs on clinical translatability of transporter inhibitions data, mechanistic approaches could support decision-making in clinical development to differentiate between AKI and creatinine-drug interactions. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Serum creatinine (SCr) is widely used as an indicator of kidney function, but it increases due to inhibitions of renal transporters, such as multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1/2-K despite no functional changes in the kidney. Such SCr elevations were quantitatively explained by renal transporter inhibitions except for some drugs with high protein binding. The present analysis demonstrated that clinically relevant inhibitors of the renal transporters could cause SCr elevations above levels corresponding to acute kidney injury criteria.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most fatal non-AIDS defining cancer in people living with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Treatment of malignancies in PWH requires concomitant cancer therapy and ART, which can lead to potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and overlapping toxicities. In this study, we hypothesize that replacement of ART with HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) during cancer chemotherapy (chemo) may maintain HIV suppression and tumor inhibition while minimizing DDIs and overlapping toxicities. We compared HIV suppression, tumor inhibition, and toxicity between conventional treatment (ART plus chemo) and a new modality (bNAbs plus chemo) in humanized mice. Humanized mice infected with HIVYU2 and xenografted with human NSCLC A549 cells were treated with NSCLC chemo (cisplatin and gemcitabine) and first-line ART (dolutegravir, tenofovir disoproxil difumarate, and emtricitabine) or bNAbs (N49P9.6-FR and PGT 121) at human equivalent drug doses. We monitored plasma HIV RNA, tumor volume, and toxicities over five cycles of chemo. We found that chemo plus ART or bNAbs were equally effective at maintaining suppression of HIV viremia and tumor growth. Comparative analysis showed that mice on ART and chemo had significant reductions in body weight and significant increases in plasma creatinine concentrations compared with mice on bNAbs and chemo, which suggests that a combination of bNAbs and chemo produces less renal toxicity than an ART and chemo combination. These data suggest that bNAb therapy during concomitant chemo may be an improved treatment option over ART for PWH and NSCLC, and possibly other cancers, because bNAbs maintain HIV suppression while minimizing DDIs and toxicities.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the resulting Coronavirus disease 2019 emerged in late 2019 and is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. A hallmark of severe COVID-19 is exaggerated systemic inflammation, regarded as a "cytokine storm," which contributes to the damage of various organs, primarily the lungs. The inflammation associated with some viral illnesses is known to alter the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. These alterations can lead to modifications in drug exposure and the processing of various endogenous compounds. Here, we provide evidence to support changes in the mitochondrial ribonucleic acid expression of a subset of drug transporters (84 transporters) in the liver, kidneys, and lungs and metabolizing enzymes (84 enzymes) in the liver in a humanized angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor mouse model. Specifically, three drug transporters (Abca3, Slc7a8, Tap1) and the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 were upregulated in the lungs of SARS-CoV-2 infected mice. We also found significant downregulation of drug transporters responsible for the movement of xenobiotics in the liver and kidney. Additionally, expression of cytochrome P-450 2f2 which is known to metabolize some pulmonary toxicants, was significantly decreased in the liver of infected mice. The significance of these findings requires further exploration. Our results suggest that further research should emphasize altered drug disposition when investigating therapeutic compounds, whether re-purposed or new chemical entities, in other animal models and ultimately in individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, the influence and impact of these changes on the processing of endogenous compounds also require further investigation.

Abstract
Ritonavir, originally developed as HIV protease inhibitor, is widely used as a booster in several HIV pharmacotherapy regimens and more recently in Covid-19 treatment (e.g., Paxlovid). Its boosting capacity is due to the highly potent irreversible inhibition of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3 A enzyme, thereby enhancing the plasma exposure to coadministered drugs metabolized by CYP3A. Typically used booster doses of ritonavir are 100-200 mg once or twice daily. This review aims to address several aspects of this booster drug, including the possibility to use lower ritonavir doses, 20 mg for instance, resulting in partial CYP3A inactivation in patients. If complete CYP3A inhibition is not needed, lower ritonavir doses could be used, thereby reducing unwanted side effects. In this context, there are contradictory reports on the actual recovery time of CYP3A activity after ritonavir discontinuation, but probably this will take at least one day. In addition to ritonavir's CYP3A inhibitory effect, it can also induce and/or inhibit other CYP enzymes and drug transporters, albeit to a lesser extent. Although ritonavir thus exhibits gene induction capacities, with respect to CYP3A activity the inhibition capacity clearly predominates. Another potent CYP3A inhibitor, the ritonavir analog cobicistat, has been reported to lack the ability to induce enzyme and transporter genes. This might result in a more favorable drug-drug interaction profile compared to ritonavir, although the actual benefit appears to be limited. Indeed, ritonavir is still the clinically most used pharmacokinetic enhancer, indicating that its side effects are well manageable, even in chronic administration regimens.

Abstract
In between 30% and 50% of people, lack of vitamin D and insufficiency are reputed to be serious health concerns. Diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic renal disease are both connected with insufficient amounts of vitamin D (CKD). Diabetes' onset and development have both been connected to vitamin D deficiency. But even if there is a connection the relationship between impaired beta cells, insulin resistance, and synthesis of these hormones in patients with diabetes. In modern study, in female the level of Vit D is decreased compared with male, as well as he values of HbA1c were significantly higher in cases than in controls (p< 0. 01). A lack of vitamin D has been associated with the development of DM. Although there is growing evidence that a vitamin D deficiency the likelihood of getting chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetic mellitus (DM) both rises), the relationship between vitamin D, creatinine, and blood urea has been established. As a result, patients with D3 deficiency have higher blood urea levels than controls, which is a significant difference. The level of Creatinine was the highest in the D3 delicacy patients (1.689±0.142) and showed a significant difference when it compared with controls (1.000±0.040) in different significant (P≤0.01). this study observed that serum creatinine increased in individuals who lack vitamin D and have chronic renal dysfunction and it's widely interpreted as a measure only of renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the creatinine equation (eGFRcreat) or the cystatin C equation (eGFRcys) in people with HIV (PWH) under antiretroviral drugs. We specifically included patients with an eGFRcreat around 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 to evaluate agreement on stage 2 and 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) classification. DESIGN eGFRcreat, eGFRcys and resulting CKD staging were determined in 262 consecutive patients with HIV-1 (PWH) with a suppressed viral load (<200 copies/ml) under antiretroviral drugs and having impaired renal function (eGFRcreat between 45 and 80 ml/min per 1.73 m2). Antiretroviral drugs regimens were classified into eight groups: cobicistat (COBI)+elvitegravir (EVG), ritonavir (RTV)+protease inhibitor, dolutegravir (DTG), DTG+rilpivirine (RPV), RPV, raltegravir (RAL), bictegravir (BIC), and other antiretroviral drugs. RESULTS Mean eGFRcys was higher than mean eGFRcreat (77.7 ± 0.5 vs. 67.9 ± 7.9 ml/min per 1.73 m2, P < 0.0001). The differences were significant in five treatment groups with COBI/EVG; DTG; DTG+RPV; RPV; RAL. CKD classification was modified for 51% of patients when using eGFRcys instead of eGFRcreat, with reclassification to less severe stages in 37% and worse stages in 14%. CONCLUSION This study highlighted significant differences in eGFR depending on the renal marker used in PWH, having a significant impact on CKD classification. eGFRcys should be an additive tool for patients having eGFRcreat around 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 for better identification of renal impairment.

Abstract
Capmatinib is a highly specific, potent, and selective mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor inhibitor predominantly eliminated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and aldehyde oxidase. Here, we investigated the effects of a strong CYP3A inhibitor (itraconazole) and a strong CYP3A inducer (rifampicin) on single-dose pharmacokinetics of capmatinib. In addition, serum creatinine and cystatin C were monitored to assess the potential inhibition of renal transporters by capmatinib. This was an open-label, 2-cohort (inhibition and induction), 2-period (capmatinib alone and inhibition/induction periods) study in healthy subjects. In the inhibition cohort, capmatinib (400 mg/day) was given alone, then with itraconazole (200 mg/day for 10 days, 5-day lead-in before coadministration). In the induction cohort, capmatinib (400 mg/day) was given alone, then with rifampicin (600 mg/day for 9 days, 5-day lead-in before coadministration). Fifty-three subjects (inhibition cohort, n = 27; induction cohort, n = 26) were enrolled. Coadministration of itraconazole resulted in an increase of capmatinib area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity by 42% (geometric mean ratio [GMR], 1.42; 90%CI, 1.33-1.52) with no change in maximum plasma concentration (GMR, 1.03; 90%CI, 0.866-1.22). Coadministration of rifampicin resulted in a reduction of capmatinib area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity by 66.5% (GMR, 0.335; 90%CI, 0.300-0.374) and a decrease in maximum plasma concentration by 55.9% (GMR, 0.441; 90%CI, 0.387-0.502). After a single dose of capmatinib, a transient increase in serum creatinine was observed with no change in serum cystatin C concentration during the 3-day monitoring period. In conclusion, coadministration of itraconazole or rifampicin resulted in clinically relevant changes in systemic exposure to capmatinib. The transient increase in serum creatinine without any increase in cystatin C suggests inhibition of renal transport by capmatinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is uncertainty about whether piperacillin/tazobactam (PT) increases the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients without concomitant use of vancomycin. This study compared the risk of hospital-acquired AKI (HA-AKI) among adults treated with PT or antipseudomonal β-lactams (meropenem, ceftazidime) without concomitant use of vancomycin. METHODS This real-world study analysed the data from China Renal Data System and assessed the risk of HA-AKI in adults hospitalized with infection after exposure to PT, meropenem or ceftazidime in the absence of concomitant vancomycin. The primary outcome was any stage of HA-AKI according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. A multi-variable Cox regression model and different propensity score (PS) matching models were used. RESULTS Among the 29,441 adults [mean (standard deviation) age 62.44 (16.84) years; 17,980 females (61.1%)] included in this study, 14,721 (50%) used PT, 9081 (31%) used meropenem and 5639 (19%) used ceftazidime. During a median follow-up period of 8 days, 2601 (8.8%) develped HA-AKI. The use of PT was not associated with significantly higher risk of HA-AKI compared with meropenem [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.97-1.19], ceftazidime (aHR 1.09, 95% CI 0.92-1.30) or both agents (aHR 1.07, 95% CI 0.97-1.17) after adjusting for confounders. Results were consistent in stratified analyses, PS matching using logistic regression or random forest methods to generate a PS, and in an analysis restricting outcomes to AKI stage 2-3. CONCLUSIONS Without concomitant use of vancomycin, the risk of AKI following PT therapy is comparable with that of meropenem or ceftazidime among adults hospitalized with infection.

Plasma Protein Binding Refinement of the Extended Clearance Classification System: Subclasses for Predicting Hepatic Uptake or Renal Clearance for Classes 1B and 3B. Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2023; 48:63-73.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The Extended Clearance Classification System (ECCS) was established to facilitate the timely anticipation of clearance rate determination according to the physicochemical characteristics of a given compound and in vitro passive membrane permeability. Unfortunately, distinguishing between renal and hepatic uptake clearance mechanisms using ECCS class 3B is not possible. We determined the effects of plasma protein binding (PPB) on major hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) and renal organic anion transporter (OAT) substrates. A modified ECCS could predict when renal or hepatic uptake mechanisms were the main clearance rate determinants (accounting for ≥ 70% of total clearance). METHODS A dataset of 66 human OATP and 41 OAT substrates was analyzed to determine the effect of PPB. A total of 63 acidic and zwitterionic, and high-molecular-weight (MW > 400 Da) compounds, including 50 drugs in ECCS classes 1B and 3B, were reanalyzed considering their PPB. RESULTS Statistical analyses revealed that hepatic uptake transporter (OATP1B1 and OATP1B3) substrates possess a high PPB rate of ≥ 90%, whereas OAT1 and/or OAT3 substrates possess low PPB rates of < 90%. By analyzing the 63 drugs on the basis of their PPB, the active hepatic uptakes of acids and zwitterions were determined to be the main clearance mechanisms, with PPB ≥ 90%, whereas renally eliminated drugs exhibited limited PPB (< 90%). CONCLUSIONS Therefore, PPB is an effective parameter for defining clearance rate determination for acidic and zwitterionic drugs with high MWs. Using PPB as an additional parameter in ECCS, clearance mechanisms for class 1B and 3B compounds can be predicted, and OATP and OAT substrates may be readily distinguished.

Abstract
Edema caused by kidney disease is called renal edema. Edema is a common symptom of many human kidney diseases. Patients with renal edema often need to take diuretics.However, After taking diuretics, patients with kidney diseases are prone to kidney congestion, decreased renal perfusion, decreased diuretics secreted by renal tubules, neuroendocrine system abnormalities, abnormal ion transporter transport, drug interaction, electrolyte disorder, and hypoproteinemia, which lead to ineffective or weakened diuretic use and increase readmission rate and mortality. The main causes and coping strategies of diuretic resistance in patients with kidney diseases were described in detail in this report. The common causes of DR included poor diet (electrolyte disturbance and hypoproteinemia due to patients' failure to limit diet according to correct sodium, chlorine, potassium, and protein level) and poor drug compliance (the patient did not take adequate doses of diuretics. true resistance occurs only if the patient takes adequate doses of diuretics, but they are not effective), changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, electrolyte disorders, changes in renal adaptation, functional nephron reduction, and decreased renal blood flow. Common treatment measures include increasing in the diuretic dose and/or frequency, sequential nephron blockade,using new diuretics, ultrafiltration treatment, etc. In clinical work, measures should be taken to prevent or delay the occurrence and development of DR in patients with kidney diseases according to the actual situation of patients and the mechanism of various causes. Currently, there are many studies on DR in patients with heart diseases. Although the phenomenon of DR in patients with kidney diseases is common, there is a relatively little overview of the mechanism and treatment strategy of DR in patients with kidney diseases. Therefore, this paper hopes to show the information on DR in patients with kidney diseases to clinicians and researchers and broaden the research direction and ideas to a certain extent.

Abstract
Serum creatinine is widely used to adjust the dosing of drugs eliminated by the kidney in patients with renal dysfunction, as it is a readily accessible indicator of kidney function. However, there are many limitations for drug dosage adjustment based on serum creatinine levels, one of which is the limited understanding of creatinine's tubular transport. Thus, we aimed to complement and advance the renal tubular transport of creatinine by activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) and transporter-overexpression technology. Renal tubular transporters were not identified via ABPP due to the low-affinity interaction between transporters and creatinine. The uptake of isotopically labeled d3-creatinine was significantly increased in OCT2-overexpressing cell lines (p<0.01), and the Km and Vmax of d3-creatinine uptake mediated by OCT2 was 3.1 mM and 408 pmol/mg protein/min, respectively. In the OCT2-overexpressing cell lines, the IC50 of creatinine for d3-creatinine uptake was 10.3 mM, and that of the OCT2 inhibitor cimetidine for d3-creatinine uptake was 99.04 μM. Different dosages of creatinine did not affect the renal excretion of d3-creatinine in mice (p>0.05), while cimetidine significantly reduced the renal excretion of d3-creatinine (p<0.01) without affecting the glomerular filtration rate. Molecular docking in silico showed that the OCT2 amino acid GLN242 could form a hydrogen bond of 2.5 Å with creatinine, and there may be a π-π interaction between TYR362 and creatinine. A site mutation experiment demonstrated that TYR362 and GLN242 were important sites for the OCT2-creatinine interaction. These results demonstrate that OCT2 mediates the renal tubular secretion of creatinine with low affinity and is a minor contributor to creatinine secretion.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important health issue that affects ~ 9.1% of the world adult population. Serum creatinine is the most commonly used biomarker for assessing kidney function and is utilized in different equations for estimating creatinine clearance or glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The Cockcroft-Gault formula for adults and "original" Schwartz formula for children have been the most commonly used equations for estimating kidney function during the last 3-4 decades. Introduction of standardized serum creatinine bioanalytical methodology has reduced interlaboratory variability but is not intended to be used with Cockcroft-Gault or original Schwartz equations. More accurate equations (for instance, Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) for adults and bedside Schwartz or Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Schwartz equation for children) based on standardized serum creatinine values (and another biomarker-cystatin C) have been introduced and validated in recent years. Recently, the CKD-EPI equation refitted without a race variable was introduced. Clinical practice guidance in nephrology advocates a shift to these equations for managing health care of patients with CKD. The guidance also recommends use of albuminuria in addition to GFR for CKD diagnosis and management. Significant research with large data sets would be necessary to evaluate whether this paradigm would also be valuable in drug dose adjustments. This article attempts to highlight some important advancements in the field from a clinical pharmacology perspective and is a call to action to industry, regulators, and academia to rethink the current paradigm for assessing kidney function to enable dose recommendation in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Organic anion transporter 2 (OAT2 or SLC22A7) plays an important role in the hepatic uptake and renal secretion of several endogenous compounds and drugs. The goal of this work is to understand the structure activity of OAT2 inhibition and assess clinical drug interaction risk. A single-point inhibition assay using OAT2-transfected HEK293 cells was employed to screen about 150 compounds; and concentration-dependent inhibition potency (IC50) was measured for the identified "inhibitors". Acids represented about 65% of all inhibitors, and the frequency of bases-plus-zwitterions approximately doubled for "non-inhibitors". Interestingly, 9 of 10 most potent inhibitors (low IC50) are acids (pKa ∼ 3-5). Additionally, inhibitors are significantly larger and lipophilic than non-inhibitors. In silico (binary) models were developed to identify inhibitors and non-inhibitors. Finally, in vivo risk assessed via static drug-drug interaction models identified several inhibitors with potential for renal and hepatic OAT2 inhibition at clinical doses. This is the first study assessing the global pattern of OAT2-ligand interactions.

Performance of Creatinine- and Cystatin C-Based Equations for Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation in HIV-1-Infected Individuals Receiving Dolutegravir + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate + Lamivudine as Initial Antiretroviral Therapy: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2022; 91:S35-S41.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dolutegravir (DTG) may inhibit organic cation transporter-2 in renal tubules and elevate serum creatinine levels without true renal function deterioration. There are scarce data on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) equations in Chinese HIV patients with DTG/TDF/3 TC. This retrospective study was to evaluate the changes in creatinine- and cystatin C-based estimated GFR values among Chinese adult HIV patients with initial highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) with DTG/TDF/3 TC for 48 weeks. SETTINGS Retrospective analysis of Chinese adult HIV patients who received initial HAART with DTG/TDF/3 TC between January 2016 and May 2021. METHODS We compared the changes in creatinine-based and cystatin C-based estimated GFR before and 48 weeks after HAART to determine the optimal tool for renal function estimation. RESULTS Ninety-five patients [91.58% men; median age, 34 years (interquartile range, 29-44 years)] were enrolled. The median baseline CD4+ cell count was 185 cells/µL [interquartile range, 53-303 cells/µL] and the median baseline viral load was 148,000 copies/mL [interquartile range, 26,800-596,000 copies/mL]. The estimated GFR at 4, 12, and 24 weeks was significantly different than at baseline (P < 0.05) using all 4 equations. Only the GFR estimated using the CKD-EPIcreat and CKD-EPIcys equations was significantly different at 48 weeks of treatment (P < 0.05). The modification of diet in renal disease-based decline of GFR incidence at 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks of treatment (21.5%, 24.21%, 33.68% and 38.95%, respectively) was higher than that calculated using the other 3 GFR equations. CONCLUSIONS The modification of diet in renal disease equation may not be optimal for Chinese HIV-1-infected adults receiving DTG + TDF + 3 TC as the initial antiviral therapy. Clinicians must carefully choose the GFR equation for patients with HIV/hepatitis B virus coinfection.

Abstract
Four decades after the first cases of HIV were reported, kidney disease remains an important comorbidity in people with HIV (PWH). Both HIV-associated nephropathy and immune complex kidney disease were recognized as complications of HIV infection in the early years before treatment was available. Although the introduction of effective antiretroviral therapy in the late 1990s resulted in dramatic improvements in survival and health in PWH, several commonly used antiretroviral agents have been associated with kidney injury. HIV infection and treatment may also promote the progression of comorbid chronic kidney disease due to traditional risk factors such as diabetes, and HIV is one of the strongest "second hits" for the high-risk APOL1 genotype. Unique considerations in the management of chronic kidney disease in PWH are largely related to the need for lifelong antiretroviral therapy, with potential for toxicity, drug-drug interactions, and polypharmacy. PWH who develop progressive chronic kidney disease are candidates for all modalities of kidney replacement therapy, including kidney transplantation, and at some centers, PWH may be candidates to serve as donors for recipients with HIV. Transplantation of kidney allografts from donors with HIV also offers a unique opportunity to study viral dynamics in the kidney, with implications for kidney health and for research toward HIV cure. In addition, HIV-transgenic animal models have provided important insights into kidney disease pathogenesis beyond HIV, and experience with HIV and HIV-related kidney disease has provided important lessons for future pandemics.

Abstract
Small molecule mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) inhibitors, such as crizotinib, capmatinib, and tepotinib, are treatment options for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in adult patients whose tumors have a mutation that leads to MET exon 14 skipping. In clinical trials, these MET inhibitors were associated with a high incidence of peripheral edema, although this was generally mild-to-moderate in severity. There is limited information about the mechanism involved in MET inhibitor-induced peripheral edema. Perturbation of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/MET signaling may disrupt the permeability balance in the vascular endothelium and thus promote edema development. Another potential mechanism is through effects on renal function, although this is unlikely to be the primary mechanism. Because edema is common in cancer patients and may not necessarily be caused by the cancer treatment, or other conditions that have similar symptoms to peripheral edema, a thorough assessment is required to ascertain the underlying cause. Before starting MET-inhibitor therapy, patients should be educated about the possibility of developing peripheral edema. Patient limb volume should be measured before initiating treatment, to aid assessment if symptoms develop. Since the exact mechanism of MET inhibitor-induced edema is unknown, management is empiric, with common approaches including compression stockings, specific exercises, massage, limb elevation, and/or diuretic treatment. Although not usually required, discontinuation of MET inhibitor treatment generally resolves peripheral edema. Early diagnosis and management, as well as patient information and education, are vital to decrease the clinical burden associated with edema, and to reinforce capmatinib treatment adherence.

Abstract
Why does the usual dose of medication work for a person while another
individual cannot give the expected response to the same drug? On the other hand, how
come half of the usual dose of an analgesic relieves an individual’s pain immediately,
as another man continue to suffer even after taking double dose? Although a treatment
method has been successfully used in majority of the population for many years, why
does the same therapy cause serious side effects in another region of the world? Most
presently approved therapies are not effective in all patients. For example, 20-40% of
patients with depression respond poorly or not at all to antidepressant drug therapy.
Many patients are resistant to the effects of antiasthmatics and antiulcer drugs or drug
treatment of hyperlipidemia and many other diseases. The reason for all those is
basically interindividual differences in genomic structures of people, which are
explained in this chapter in terms of the systems and the most frequently used drugs in
clinical treatment.

Abstract
Cystatin C has been shown to be a reliable and accurate marker of kidney function across diverse populations. The 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines recommended using cystatin C to confirm the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) determined by creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and to estimate kidney function when accurate eGFR estimates are needed for clinical decision-making. In the efforts to remove race from eGFR calculations in the United States, the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) and American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Joint Task Force recommended increasing availability and clinical adoption of cystatin C to assess kidney function. This review summarizes the key advantages and limitations of cystatin C use in clinical practice. Our goals were to review and discuss the literature on cystatin C; understand the evidence behind the recommendations for its use as a marker of kidney function to diagnose CKD and risk stratify patients for adverse outcomes; discuss the challenges of its use in clinical practice; and guide clinicians on its interpretation.

Abstract
An administration plan for vancomycin (VCM) in bedridden elderly patients has not been established. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of VCM by the Bayesian approach using creatinine-based equations of estimated kidney function in such patients. Kidney function was estimated using the Japanese equation of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the Cockcroft-Gault equation of estimated creatinine clearance (eCCr). eCCr (serum creatinine (SCr) + 0.2) was calculated by substituting the SCr level +0.2 mg/dL into the Cockcroft-Gault equation. For eGFR/0.789, eGFR, eCCr, and eCCr (SCr + 0.2), the AUC values were calculated by the Bayesian approach using the therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) software, BMs-Pod (ver 8.06) and denoted as AUCeGFR/0.789, AUCeGFR, AUCeCCr, and AUCeCCr (SCr + 0.2) respectively. The reference AUC (AUCREF) was calculated by applying VCM's peak and trough steady-state concentrations to first-order pharmacokinetic equations. The medians (range) of AUCeGFR/0.789/AUCREF, AUCeGFR/AUCREF, AUCeCCr/AUCREF, and AUCeCCr (SCr + 0.2)/AUCREF were 0.88 (0.74-0.93), 0.90 (0.79-1.04), 0.92 (0.81-1.07), and 1.00 (0.88-1.11), respectively. Moreover, the percentage of patients within 10% of the AUCREF, defined as |Bayesian-estimated AUC - AUCREF| < AUCREF × 0.1, was the highest (86%) in AUCeCCr (SCr + 0.2). These results suggest that the Bayesian approach using eCCr (SCr + 0.2) has the highest prediction accuracy for the AUCREF in bedridden elderly patients. Although further studies are required with more accurate determination methods of the CCr and AUC, our findings highlight the potential of eCCr (SCr + 0.2) for estimating VCM's AUC by the Bayesian approach in such patients.

Abstract
During its 4th transporter workshop in 2021, the International Transporter Consortium (ITC) provided updates on emerging clinically relevant transporters for drug development. Previously highlighted and new transporters were considered based on up-to-date clinical evidence of their importance in drug-drug interactions and potential for altered drug efficacy and safety, including drug-nutrient interactions leading to nutrient deficiencies. For the first time, folate transport pathways (PCFT, RFC, and FRα) were examined in-depth as a potential mechanism of drug-induced folate deficiency and related toxicities (e.g., neural tube defects, megaloblastic anemia). However, routine toxicology studies conducted in support of drug development appear sufficient to flag such folate deficiency toxicities, while prospective prediction from in vitro folate metabolism and transport inhibition is not well enough established to inform drug development. Previous suggestion of retrospective study of intestinal OATP2B1 inhibition to explain unexpected decreases in drug exposure were updated. Furthermore, when the absorption of a new molecular entity is more rapid and extensive than can be explained by passive permeability, evaluation of OATP2B1 transport may be considered. Emerging research on hepatic and renal OAT2 is summarized, but current understanding of the importance of OAT2 was deemed insufficient to justify specific consideration for drug development. Hepatic, renal, and intestinal MRPs (MRP2, MRP3, MRP4) were revisited. MRPs may be considered when they are suspected to be the major determinant of drug disposition (e.g., direct glucuronide conjugates); MRP2 inhibition as a mechanistic explanation for drug-induced hyperbilirubinemia remains justified. There were no major changes in recommendations from previous ITC whitepapers.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Trimethoprim (TMP) inhibits the Na+ /K+ -ATPase present in the basement membrane of distal tubular epithelial cells. However, hyponatremia and hyperkalemia may develop in patients taking TMP-sulfamethoxazole (SMX). In addition, because TMP inhibits drug transporters, such as organic cation transporter 2 and multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 2-K in proximal tubules, reversible increases in the concentration of serum creatinine (SCr), the substrate of these transporters, may occur. Here, we investigated variability in SCr, serum sodium (Na+ ), and serum potassium (K+ ) concentrations after initiation of TMP-SMX treatment and evaluated the risk of hyponatremia and hyperkalemia in patients with increased SCr concentrations without changes in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). METHODS In this retrospective study, all patients aged 20 years or older who received oral TMP-SMX during hospitalization were enrolled. The patients with estimated creatinine (Cr) clearance (eCCr) lower than 30 mL/min were excluded, as were patients taking drugs that were likely to induce renal dysfunction, drugs other than glucocorticoids that were likely to induce electrolyte imbalances, or drugs other than TMP that inhibit tubular Cr secretion. Additionally, those with SCr concentrations elevated more than 30% from baseline or serum blood urea nitrogen concentration levels above 20 mg/dL during follow-up were also excluded. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In total, 111 patients were enrolled in the study. The common independent variable affecting the change rate in SCr, Na+ , and K+ concentrations (ΔSCr, ΔNa+ , and ΔK+ ) from baseline to the highest value during the follow-up period (14 days after initiation of TMP-SMX treatment) was the daily dose of TMP. There were significant correlations between ΔSCr and ΔNa+ or ΔK+ (ρ = -0.199, p = 0.036 and ρ = 0.244, p = 0.010, respectively). Kaplan-Meier curves for hyponatremia and hyperkalemia with greater than or equal to grade 1 severity showed different profiles when the TMP dose varied (≤ 160 vs. > 160 mg/day; p = 0.005 and 0.008). The cumulative incidences of both adverse effects were 64.7% (median: 7 days) and 29.4% in patients taking more than 160 mg/day TMP and 35.2% and 6.7% in patients taking 160 mg/day TMP or less. Thus, TMP may affect the kinetics of Cr, Na+ , and K+ in the proximal and distal tubules in a dose-dependent without changing the GFR. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION This study is the first report to demonstrate the degree of changes in SCr, Na+ , and K+ concentrations after initiation of TMP-SMX treatment. If SCr is elevated after initiation of TMP-SMX treatment, clinicians should be aware of decreased Na+ and increased K+ concentrations. TMP may increase the risks of hyponatremia and hyperkalemia in a dose-dependent manner without altering GFR.

Abstract
Kidney mass and function are sexually determined, but the cellular events and the molecular mechanisms involved in this dimorphism are poorly characterized. By combining female and male mice with castration/replacement experiments, we showed that male mice exhibited kidney overgrowth from five weeks of age. This effect was organ specific, since liver and heart weight were comparable between males and females, regardless of age. Consistently, the androgen receptor was found to be expressed in the kidneys of males, but not in the liver. In growing mice, androgens led to kidney overgrowth by first inducing a burst of cell proliferation and then an increase of cell size. Remarkably, androgens were also required to maintain cell size in adults. In fact, orchiectomy resulted in smaller kidneys in a matter of few weeks. These changes paralleled the changes of the expression of ornithine decarboxylase and cyclin D1, two known mediators of kidney growth, whereas, unexpectedly, mTORC1 and Hippo pathways did not seem to be involved. Androgens also enhanced kidney autophagy, very likely by increasing transcription factor EB nuclear translocation. Functionally, the increase of tubular mass resulted in increased sodium/phosphate transport. These findings were relevant to humans. Remarkably, by studying living gender-paired kidney donors-recipients, we showed that tubular cell size increased three months after transplantation in men as compared to women, regardless of the donor gender. Thus, our results identify novel signaling pathways that may be involved in androgen-induced kidney growth and homeostasis, and suggest that androgens determine kidney size after transplantation.

The Interplay between Uremic Toxins and Albumin, Membrane Transporters and Drug Interaction. Toxins (Basel) 2022; 14:toxins14030177. [PMID: 35324674 PMCID: PMC8949274 DOI: 10.3390/toxins14030177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Uremic toxins are a heterogeneous group of molecules that accumulate in the body due to the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). These toxins are associated with kidney dysfunction and the development of comorbidities in patients with CKD, being only partially eliminated by dialysis therapies. Importantly, drugs used in clinical treatments may affect the levels of uremic toxins, their tissue disposition, and even their elimination through the interaction of both with proteins such as albumin and cell membrane transporters. In this context, protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) are highlighted for their high affinity for albumin, the most abundant serum protein with multiple binding sites and an ability to interact with drugs. Membrane transporters mediate the cellular influx and efflux of various uremic toxins, which may also compete with drugs as substrates, and both may alter transporter activity or expression. Therefore, this review explores the interaction mechanisms between uremic toxins and albumin, as well as membrane transporters, considering their potential relationship with drugs used in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the new indication of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK4/6) inhibitor abemaciclib for the adjuvant treatment of hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-), axillary lymph node (LN) positive early breast cancer (EBC) at high risk of recurrence and a Ki-67 ≥20%. DATA SOURCES A literature search was performed through PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website (February 1, 2018, to December 23, 2021) to identify relevant information. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Human and animal studies related to pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety of abemaciclib were identified. DATA SYNTHESIS Addition of abemaciclib to standard of care endocrine therapy (ET) for patients with high-risk clinicopathologic features and Ki-67 ≥20% demonstrated 30% reduction in the risk of developing invasive disease and distant recurrence. At 15.5 months, abemaciclib + ET demonstrated a significant improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) vs ET alone (hazard ratio [HR], 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.60-0.93, P = 0.01). At 27 months, IDFS benefit was maintained (HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.59-0.82, P < 0.0001). Diarrhea occurred in more than 80% of patients in the abemaciclib arm. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE This review describes the clinical applicability of adjuvant abemaciclib for patients with HR+, HER2- EBC at high risk for recurrence. CONCLUSION Adjuvant abemaciclib significantly reduces the risk for early development of invasive disease and distant recurrence in patients with HR+, HER2- node positive EBC. Longer follow-up is needed to determine the impact of adjuvant abemaciclib on late disease recurrence and survival outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are more than 30 agents available for the treatment of HIV with guidelines shifting toward integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) as part of first line therapy. The fixed dose combination of dolutegravir (DTG), abacavir (ABC), and lamivudine (3TC) is a convenient, well tolerated, and highly effective option for treating HIV infection and remains a first line therapy across several prominent guidelines. AREAS COVERED In this drug evaluation, the authors provide a comprehensive overview of DTG/ABC/3TC for the treatment of HIV including the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy, safety, and tolerability. The authors also provide the reader with their expert perspectives on this particular treatment strategy. EXPERT OPINION While DTG/ABC/3TC remains a valuable HIV treatment option, newer combination regimens have entered the market. Bictegravir with tenofovir alafenamide and emtricitabine offers the benefit of same day initiation and efficacy in hepatitis B co-infection, while new two-drug regimens enhance the simplicity of HIV treatment. Continued study is required into the mechanisms and optimal management strategies for weight gain for many regimens, including DTG/ABC/3TC.

Abstract
Lipid risk factors for cardiovascular disease depend in part on lifestyle, but optimum control of lipids often demands additional measures. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) doubtless contributes causally to atherosclerosis. Recent human genetic findings have substantiated a number of novel targets for lipid-lowering therapy including apolipoprotein C-III, angiopoietin-like protein 3 and 4, apolipoprotein V, and ATP citrate lyase. These discoveries coupled with advances in biotechnology development afford new avenues for management of LDL and other aspects of lipid risk. Beyond LDL, new treatments targeting triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and lipoprotein(a) have become available and have entered clinical development. Biological and RNA-directed agents have joined traditional small-molecule approaches, which themselves have undergone considerable refinement. Innovative targeting strategies have increased efficacy of some of these novel interventions and markedly improved their tolerability. Gene-editing approaches have appeared on the horizon of lipid management. This article reviews this progress offering insight into novel biological and therapeutic discoveries, and places them into a practical patient care perspective.

Abstract
The human Solute Carrier 22 family (SLC22), also termed the organic ion transporter family, consists of 28 distinct multi-membrane spanning proteins, which phylogenetically cluster together according to their charge specificity for organic cations (OCTs), organic anions (OATs) and organic zwitterion/cations (OCTNs). Some SLC22 family members are well characterized in terms of their substrates, transport mechanisms and expression patterns, as well as their roles in human physiology and pharmacology, whereas others remain orphans with no known ligands. Pharmacologically, SLC22 family members play major roles as determinants of the absorption and disposition of many prescription drugs, and several including the renal transporters, OCT2, OAT1 and OAT3 are targets for many clinically important drug-drug interactions. In addition, mutations in some of these transporters (SLC22A5 (OCTN2) and SLC22A12 (URAT1) lead to rare monogenic disorders. Genetic polymorphisms in SLC22 transporters have been associated with common human disease, drug response and various phenotypic traits. Three members in this family were deorphaned in very recently: SLC22A14, SLC22A15 and SLC22A24, and found to transport specific compounds such as riboflavin (SLC22A14), anti-oxidant zwitterions (SLC22A15) and steroid conjugates (SLC22A24). Their physiologic and pharmacological roles need further investigation. This review aims to summarize the substrates, expression patterns and transporter mechanisms of individual SLC22 family members and their roles in human disease and drug disposition and response. Gaps in our understanding of SLC22 family members are described. Significance Statement In recent years, three members of the SLC22 family of transporters have been deorphaned and found to play important roles in the transport of diverse solutes. New research has furthered our understanding of the mechanisms, pharmacological roles, and clinical impact of SLC22 transporters. This minireview provides overview of SLC22 family members of their physiologic and pharmacologic roles, the impact of genetic variants in the SLC22 family on disease and drug response, and summary of recent studies deorphaning SLC22 family members.

Abstract
Spot determinations of the urine creatinine concentration are widely used as a substitute for 24-hour urine collections. Expressed as the amount excreted per gram of creatinine, urine concentrations in a single-voided sample are often used to estimate 24-hour excretion rates of protein, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, urea, and uric acid. These estimates are predicated on the assumption that daily creatinine excretion equals 1 gm (and that a urine creatinine concentration of 100 mg/dl reflects a 1 Liter 24-hour urine volume). Such estimates are invalid if the serum creatinine concentration is rising or falling. In addition, because creatinine excretion is determined by muscle mass, the assumption that 24-hour urine creatinine excretion equals 1 gm yields a misleading estimate at the extremes of age and body size. In this review we evaluate seven equations for the accuracy of their estimates of urine volume based on urine creatinine concentrations in actual and idealized patients. None of the equations work well in patients who are morbidly obese or in patients with markedly decreased muscle mass. In other patients, estimates based on a reformulation of the Cockroft-Gault equation are reasonably accurate. A recent study based on this relationship found a high strength of correlation between estimated and measured urine output with chronic kidney disease (CKD) studied in the African American Study of Kidney Disease (AASK) trial and for the patients studied in the CKD Optimal Management with Binders and NictomidE (COMBINE) trial. However, the equation systematically underestimated urine output in the AASK trial. Hence, an intercept was added to account for the bias in estimated output. A more rigorous equation, derived from an ambulatory Swiss population, that includes body mass index and models the non-linear accelerated decline in creatinine excretion with age, could potentially be more accurate in overweight and elderly patients. In addition to extremes of body weight and muscle mass, decreased dietary intake or reduced hepatic synthesis of creatine, a precursor of creatinine, or ingestion of creatine supplements will also result in inaccurate estimates. These limitations must be appreciated to rationally use predictive equations to estimate urine volume. If the baseline urine creatinine concentration is determined in a sample of known volume, subsequent urine creatinine concentrations will reveal actual urine output as well as the change in urine output. Given the constraints of the various estimating equations, a single baseline timed collection may be more useful strategy for monitoring urine volume than entering anthropomorphic data into a calculator.

Abstract
Ibrutinib (Imbruvica; PCI-32765) is an orally administered inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase that has transformed the treatment of B-cell malignancies. However, ibrutinib has very low oral bioavailability that contributes to significant variability in systemic exposure between patients, and this has the potential to affect both efficacy and toxicity. We hypothesized that the oral bioavailability of ibrutinib is limited by CYP3A isoform-mediated metabolism, and that this pathway can be inhibited to improve the pharmacokinetic properties of ibrutinib. Pharmacokinetic studies were performed in wild-type mice and mice genetically engineered to lack all CYP3A isoforms [CYP3A(-/-)] that received ibrutinib alone or in combination with CYP3A inhibitors cobicistat or ketoconazole. Computational modeling was performed to derive doses of ibrutinib that, when given after a CYP3A inhibitor, results in therapeutically-relevant drug levels. Deficiency of CYP3A in mice was associated with a ~10-fold increase in the area under the curve of ibrutinib. This result could be phenocopied by administration of cobicistat before ibrutinib in wild-type mice, but cobicistat did not influence levels of ibrutinib in CYP3A(-/-) mice. Population pharmacokinetic and prospectively validated physiologically-based pharmacokinetic models established preclinical and clinical doses of ibrutinib that could be given safely in combination with cobicistat without negatively affecting anti-leukemic properties. These findings signify a dominant role for CYP3A-mediated metabolism in the elimination of ibrutinib, and suggest a role for pharmacological inhibitors of this pathway to intentionally modulate the plasma levels and improve the therapeutic use of this clinically important agent.

Abstract
Auranofin (AF), a gold compound, has been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA) for more than 40 years; however, its mechanism of action remains unknown. We revealed that AF inhibited the induction of proinflammatory proteins and their mRNAs by the inflammatory stimulants, cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase, and their upstream regulator, NF-κB. AF also activated the proteins peroxyredoxin-1, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1, and NF-E2-related factor 2, and inhibited thioredoxin reductase, all of which are involved in oxidative or electrophilic stress under physiological conditions. Although the cell membrane was previously considered to be permeable to AF because of its hydrophobicity, the mechanisms responsible for transporting AF into and out of cells as well as its effects on the uptake and excretion of other drugs have not yet been elucidated. Antibodies for cytokines have recently been employed in the treatment of RA, which has had an impact on the use of AF. Trials to repurpose AF as a risk-controlled agent to treat cancers or infectious diseases, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2/coronavirus disease 2019, are ongoing. Novel gold compounds are also under development as anti-cancer and anti-infection agents.

Abstract
In humans and animal models, the kidneys and cardiovascular systems are negatively affected by BPA from the environment. It is considered that BPA have some potential estrogen-like and non-hormone-like properties. In this study, RNA-sequencing and its-related bioinformatics was used as the basic strategy to clarify the characteristic mechanisms of kidney-heart axis remodeling and dysfunction in diabetic male rats under BPA exposure. We found that continuous BPA exposure in diabetic rats aggravated renal impairment, and caused hemodynamic disorders and dysfunctions. There were 655 and 125 differentially expressed genes in the kidney and heart, respectively. For the kidneys, functional annotation and enrichment, and gene set enrichment analyses identified bile acid secretion related to lipid synthesis and transport, and MAPK cascade pathways. For the heart, these bioinformatics analyses clearly pointed to MAPKs pathways. A total of 12 genes and another total of 6 genes were identified from the kidney tissue and heart tissue, respectively. Western blotting showed that exposure to BPA activated MAPK cascades in both organs. In this study, the exacerbated remodeling of diabetic kidney-heart axis under BPA exposure and diabetes might occur through hemodynamics, metabolism disorders, and the immune-inflammatory response, as well as continuous estrogen-like stimulation, with focus on the MAPK cascades.

Abstract
Pregnancy can significantly change the pharmacokinetics of drugs, including those renally secreted by organic anion transporters (OATs). Quantifying these changes in pregnant women is logistically and ethically challenging. Hence, predicting the in vivo plasma renal secretory clearance (CLsec) and renal CL (CLrenal) of OAT drugs in pregnancy is important to design correct dosing regimens of OAT drugs. Here, we first quantified the fold-change in renal OAT activity in pregnant versus nonpregnant individual using available selective OAT probe drug CLrenal data (training dataset; OAT1: tenofovir, OAT2: acyclovir, OAT3: oseltamivir carboxylate). The fold-change in OAT1 activity during the 2nd and 3rd trimester was 2.9 and 1.0 compared with nonpregnant individual, respectively. OAT2 activity increased 3.1-fold during the 3rd trimester. OAT3 activity increased 2.2, 1.7 and 1.3-fold during the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimester, respectively. Based on these data, we predicted the CLsec, CLrenal and total clearance ((CLtotal) of drugs in pregnancy, which are secreted by multiple OATs (verification dataset; amoxicillin, pravastatin, cefazolin and ketorolac, R-ketorolac, S-ketorolac). Then, the predicted clearances (CLs) were compared with the observed values. The predicted/observed CLsec, CLrenal, and CLtotal of drugs in pregnancy of all verification drugs were within 0.80-1.25 fold except for CLsec of amoxicillin in the 3rd trimester (0.76-fold) and cefazolin in the 2nd trimester (1.27-fold). Overall, we successfully predicted the CLsec, CLrenal, and CLtotal of drugs in pregnancy that are renally secreted by multiple OATs. This approach could be used in the future to adjust dosing regimens of renally secreted OAT drugs which are administered to pregnant women. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report to successfully predict renal secretory clearance and renal clearance of multiple OAT substrate drugs during pregnancy. The data presented here could be used in the future to adjust dosing regimens of renally secreted OAT drugs in pregnancy. In addition, the mechanistic approach used here could be extended to drugs transported by other renal transporters.

Abstract
Renal transporters involved in tubular excretion pathway are considered to be the key concern in drug evaluations in nephrotoxicity. However, the relationship between the alternation of renal transporters and the kinetic process of vancomycin (VCM)-induced nephrotoxicity has not been fully elucidated. The present study investigated the alteration of renal transporters expression in the kinetic process of VCM-induced nephrotoxicity in mice. C57BL/6 mice were administrated with normal saline or VCM for 7 days. Biochemical and pathological analyses were conducted to investigate the nephrotoxicity induced by VCM administration. Renal oxidative status, plasma, and kidney content of VCM were monitored. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry analyses were performed to analyze the expression of renal transporters. Finally, our data showed that the exposure of VCM (400 mg/kg) caused a slight nephrotoxicity in mice, whereas exposure of VCM (600 mg/kg) resulted in the severe nephrotoxicity in mice as evidenced by biochemical parameters and renal morphological changes. In addition, the accumulation of VCM in kidney is higher than plasma. Interestingly, VCM (600 mg/kg, body weight) resulted in the induction of Oct2-Mate1 and Oat1/3-Mrp2/Mrp4/Bcrp pathways. However, VCM (400 mg/kg, body weight) caused the induction of Oct2-Mate1/Mate2 and Oat1/3-Mrp4/Bcrp pathways. The changes of renal transporters in association with the kinetic process of VCM-induced nephrotoxicity may exert important practical implications for its optimal use in clinic.

Abstract
Drug-drug interactions mediated by transporters are a serious clinical concern hence a tremendous amount of work has been done on the characterization of the transporter-mediated proteins in humans and animals. The underlying mechanism for the transporter-mediated drug-drug interaction is the induction or inhibition of the transporter which is involved in the cellular uptake and efflux of drugs. Transporter of the brain, liver, kidney, and intestine are major determinants that alter the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion profile of drugs, and considerably influence the pharmacokinetic profile of drugs. As a consequence, transporter proteins may affect the therapeutic activity and safety of drugs. However, mounting evidence suggests that many drugs change the activity and/or expression of the transporter protein. Accordingly, evaluation of drug interaction during the drug development process is an integral part of risk assessment and regulatory requirements. Therefore, this review will highlight the clinical significance of the transporter, their role in disease, possible cause underlying the drug-drug interactions using analytical tools, and update on the regulatory requirement. The recent in-silico approaches which emphasize the advancement in the discovery of drug-drug interactions are also highlighted in this review. Besides, we discuss several endogenous biomarkers that have shown to act as substrates for many transporters, which could be potent determinants to find the drug-drug interactions mediated by transporters. Transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions are taken into consideration in the drug approval process therefore we also provided the extrapolated decision trees from in-vitro to in-vivo, which may trigger the follow-up to clinical studies.
