Abstract
Anthracyclines remain the cornerstone of numerous chemotherapeutic protocols, with beneficial effects against haematological malignancies and solid tumours. Unfortunately, the clinical usefulness of anthracyclines is compromised by the development of cardiotoxic side effects, leading to dose limitations or treatment discontinuation. There is no absolute linear correlation between the incidence of cardiotoxicity and the threshold dose, suggesting that genetic factors may modify the association between anthracyclines and cardiotoxicity risk. And the majority of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with anthracycline pharmacogenomics were identified in the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) and solute carrier (SLC) transporters, generating increasing interest in the pharmacogenetic implications of their genetic variations for anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC). This review focuses on the influence of SLC and ABC polymorphisms on AIC and highlights the prospects and clinical significance of pharmacogenetics for individualised preventive approaches.

Catalpol alleviates adriamycin-induced nephropathy by activating the SIRT1 signalling pathway in vivo and in vitro. Br J Pharmacol 2019; 176:4558-4573. [PMID: 31378931 DOI: 10.1111/bph.14822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2018] [Revised: 06/28/2019] [Accepted: 07/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Catalpol, a water-soluble active ingredient isolated from Rehmannia glutinosa, exhibits multiple pharmacological activities. However, the mechanism(s) underlying protection against renal injury by catalpol remains unknown. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Adriamycin-induced kidney injury models associated with podocyte damage were employed to investigate the nephroprotective effects of catalpol. In vivo, TUNEL and haematoxylin-eosin staining was used to evaluate the effect of catalpol on kidney injury in mice. In vitro, effects of catalpol on podocyte damage induced by adriamycin was determined by elisa kit, flow cytometry, Hoechst 33342, and TUNEL staining. The mechanism was investigated by siRNA, EX527, and docking simulations. KEY RESULTS In vivo, catalpol treatment significantly improved adriamycin-induced kidney pathological changes and decreased the number of apoptotic cells. In vitro, catalpol markedly decreased the intracellular accumulation of adriamycin and reduced the calcium ion level in podocytes and then attenuated apoptosis. Importantly, the regulatory effects of catalpol on sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2), and the TRPC6 channel were mostly abolished after incubation with SIRT1 siRNA or the SIRT1-specific inhibitor EX527. Furthermore, docking simulations showed that catalpol efficiently oriented itself in the active site of SIRT1, indicating a higher total binding affinity score than that of other SIRT1 activators, such as resveratrol, SRT2104, and quercetin. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Taken together, our results suggest that catalpol exhibits strong protective effects against adriamycin-induced nephropathy by inducing SIRT1-mediated inhibition of TRPC6 expression and enhancing MRP2 expression.

Abstract
Identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that influence chemotherapy disposition may help to personalize cancer treatment and limit toxicity. Genome-wide approaches are unbiased, compared with candidate gene studies, but usually require large cohorts. As most chemotherapy is given cyclically multiple blood sampling is required to adequately define drug disposition, limiting patient recruitment. We found that carboplatin and paclitaxel disposition are stable phenotypes in ovarian cancer patients and tested a genome-wide association study (GWAS) design to identify SNPs associated with chemotherapy disposition. We found highly significant SNPs in ABCC2, a known carboplatin transporter, associated with carboplatin clearance (asymptotic P = 5.2 × 106, empirical P = 1.4 × 10−5), indicating biological plausibility. We also identified novel SNPs associated with paclitaxel disposition, including rs17130142 with genome-wide significance (asymptotic P = 2.0 × 10−9, empirical P = 1.3 × 10−7). Although requiring further validation, our work demonstrated that GWAS of chemotherapeutic drug disposition can be effective, even in relatively small cohorts, and can be adopted in drug development and treatment programs.

Abstract
Haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) survivors are at increased risk for developing congestive heart failure (CHF), primarily due to pre-HCT exposure to anthracyclines. We examined the association between the development of CHF after HCT and polymorphisms in 16 candidate genes involved in anthracycline metabolism, iron homeostasis, anti-oxidant defence, and myocardial remodelling. A nested case-control study design was used. Cases (post-HCT CHF) were identified from 2950 patients who underwent HCT between 1988 and 2007 at City of Hope and had survived ≥1 year. This cohort formed the sampling frame for selecting controls (without CHF) matched on: age, race/ethnicity, cumulative anthracycline exposure, stem cell source (allogeneic, autologous), and length of follow-up. Seventy-seven cases with pre-HCT germline DNA and 178 controls were genotyped. Multivariate analysis revealed that the odds of CHF was higher in females [Odds Ratio (OR) = 2·9, P < 0·01], individuals with pre-HCT chest radiation (OR = 4·7, P = 0·05), hypertension (OR = 2·9, P = 0·01), and with variants of genes coding for the NAD(P)H-oxidase subunit RAC2 (rs13058338, 7508T→A; OR = 2·8, P < 0·01), HFE (rs1799945, 63C→G; OR = 2·5, P = 0·05) or the doxorubicin efflux transporter ABCC2 (rs8187710, 1515G→A; OR = 4·3, P < 0·01). A combined (clinical and genetic) CHF predictive model performed better [area under the curve (AUC), 0·79] than the genetic (AUC = 0·67) or the clinical (AUC = 0·69) models alone.

Abstract
1. Since the prevalent hormonal combination therapy with estrogen analogues in cancer patients has frequency and possibility to induce the cholestasis, the frequent combination therapy with 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE, an oral contraceptive) and doxorubicin (an anticancer drug) might be monitored in aspect of efficacy and safety. Doxorubicin is mainly excreted into the bile via P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2) in hepatobiliary route and metabolized via cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A subfamily. Also the hepatic Mrp2 (not P-gp) and CYP3A subfamily levels were reduced in EE-induced cholestatic (EEC) rats. Thus, we herein report the pharmacokinetic changes of doxorubicin with respect to the changes in its biliary excretion and hepatic metabolism in EEC rats. 2. The pharmacokinetic study of doxorubicin after intravenous administration of its hydrochloride was conducted along with the investigation of bile flow rate and hepatobiliary excretion of doxorubicin in control and EEC rats. 3. The significantly greater AUC (58.7% increase) of doxorubicin in EEC rats was due to the slower CL (32.9% decrease). The slower CL was due to the reduction of hepatic biliary excretion (67.0% decrease) and hepatic CYP3A subfamily-mediated metabolism (21.9% decrease) of doxorubicin. These results might have broader implications to understand the altered pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacologic effects of doxorubicin via biliary excretion and hepatic metabolism in experimental and clinical estrogen-induced cholestasis.

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

Abstract
Methotrexate (MTX), an important anticancer and immunosuppressive agent, has been suggested for the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis. However, the drug's pharmacodynamics and toxicity is dependent on its concentrations in plasma which in turn are directly related to MTX's elimination in the liver and kidney. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate changes in MTX biliary and renal excretion during either intrahepatic or obstructive cholestasis in rats. The steady state pharmacokinetic parameters of MTX were evaluated in rats one (BDO1) or seven (BDO7) days after bile duct obstruction (BDO) or 18 h after administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In comparison to the respective control groups, biliary and total clearances of MTX were decreased to 12% and 49% in the BDO1 group, to 5% and 56% in the BDO7 animals, and to 42% and 43% in the LPS group, respectively. Renal clearance of MTX was unchanged in BDO groups, but decreased to 23% of controls in the LPS animals. The serum biochemistry and expression of main hepatic MTX transporters (Mrp2, Mrp3, Mrp4, Bcrp, Oatp1a1, Oatp1a4 and Oatp1b2) confirmed the pathological cholestatic changes in the liver and partly elucidated the cause of changes in MTX pharmacokinetic parameters. In conclusion, this study is the first describing marked alteration of MTX hepatic and renal elimination induced by cholestasis in rats. Moreover, the reported changes in MTX pharmacokinetics and respective transporter expression suggest important mechanistic differences between the two widely used cholestatic models.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug efflux transporters limit intracellular concentration of their substrates by pumping them out of cell through an active, energy dependent mechanism. Several of these proteins have been originally associated with the phenomenon of multidrug resistance; however, later on, they have also been shown to control body disposition of their substrates. P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is the first detected and the best characterized of ABC drug efflux transporters. Apart from tumor cells, its constitutive expression has been reported in a variety of other tissues, such as the intestine, brain, liver, placenta, kidney, and others. Being located on the apical site of the plasma membrane, Pgp can remove a variety of structurally unrelated compounds, including clinically relevant drugs, their metabolites, and conjugates from cells. Driven by energy from ATP, it affects many pharmacokinetic events such as intestinal absorption, brain penetration, transplacental passage, and hepatobiliary excretion of drugs and their metabolites. It is widely believed that Pgp, together with other ABC drug efflux transporters, plays a crucial role in the host detoxication and protection against xenobiotic substances. On the other hand, the presence of these transporters in normal tissues may prevent pharmacotherapeutic agents from reaching their site of action, thus limiting their therapeutic potential. This chapter focuses on P-glycoprotein, its expression, localization, and function in nontumor tissues and the pharmacological consequences hereof.

Abstract
High-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) chemotherapy with leucovorin (LV) rescue has been used as a therapeutic strategy in oncology since the 1970s. Adverse reactions following extension of methotrexate (MTX) elimination are a crucial problem in HDMTX chemotherapy. MTX is a substrate for drug transporters, which are multidrug resistance protein 2 (Mrp2), organic anion transporter polypeptide 2 (Oatp2) and other transporters. We previously reported that MTX treatment downregulated the expression level of Mrp2 in rats. Here we examined the effect of MTX treatment on the expression of Oatp2, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and bile salt export pump (Bsep) in rats. MTX was single-injected intraperitoneally at a dose of 150 mg/kg, and Western blot analysis was performed. The levels of Oatp2, P-gp and Bsep in the liver on day 4 after treatment were downregulated to 36.3 +/- 6.9%, 51.5 +/- 5.2% and 61.8 +/- 5.5% (mean +/- S.E.M.) of controls, respectively. Expression levels of P-gp in the kidney and ileum were also downregulated to 38.5 +/- 1.6% and 16.2 +/- 1.6% of controls, respectively. These effects of MTX were partially recovered by LV, which rescues normal cells from MTX toxicity. In conclusion, the result indicates that MTX treatment downregulates expression levels of Oatp2, P-gp and Bsep.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study was aimed at evaluation of in vivo biliary and renal excretion of rhodamine 123 (Rho123), a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, in rats during either acute or chronic cholestasis induced by bile duct obstruction (BDO). METHODS The Rho123 clearance study was performed either one (BDO1) or seven (BDO7) days after BDO. Bile flow was reconstituted, and bile and urine were collected after steady-state plasma concentration of Rho123 was attained. Tissue expression of P-gp was evaluated by quantitative immunohistochemistry, and immunoblotting. RESULTS Significant up-regulation of the liver P-gp protein was observed in acute and chronic cholestasis. Primary periportal location of P-gp was enlarged also to pericentral areas. In the kidneys, immunohistochemistry showed pancellular increase in P-gp after 1 day of BDO, which subsided after 7 days of BDO. Nevertheless, biliary and renal clearances (CL(Bile) and CL(R)) of Rho123 did not reflect the induction of P-gp expression. While CL(Bile) was reduced one day after cholestasis and restored on the seventh day, the CL(R) was preserved in BDO1 group and reduced in BDO7 group without change in glomerular filtration rate. In parallel, biliary and renal clearances of conjugated bilirubin were significantly reduced in both cholestatic groups compared with controls. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that extrahepatic cholestasis causes time-dependent changes in elimination of Rho123 which do not exactly reflect alteration of P-gp expression in the rat liver and kidney. These data may help to explain impaired elimination of P-gp substrates after short-term cholestasis that may commonly occur in clinical practice.

Abstract
Anthracyclines belong to the most successful antineoplastic drugs, but they are cardiotoxic, which may result in congestive heart failure (CHF). The CHF risk increases with the cumulative anthracycline dose, but it seems also to be modified by individual factors. A role of the individual genetic background is consistent with the altered sensitivity to anthracyclines observed in many transgenic and knockout mouse strains. First clinical data obtained in humans suggest the existence of predisposing variants in genes involved in the oxidative stress, and in the metabolism and transport of anthracyclines. These data will have to be verified in further clinical trials before any attempts of their application in the individual cardiotoxicity prediction can be undertaken. In the meantime, anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity can be best reduced by application of liposomal anthracycline formulations or by a co-medication with the cardioprotective iron chelator dexrazoxane.

Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the role of P glycoprotein and multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp2) in the transport of telithromycin, a newly developed ketolide antibiotic, in vitro and in vivo. The in vitro experiments revealed that the intracellular accumulation of telithromycin in adriamycin-resistant human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells (K562/ADR) overexpressing P glycoprotein was significantly lower than that in human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells (K562/S) not expressing P glycoprotein. Cyclosporine significantly increased the intracellular accumulation of telithromycin in K562/ADR cells. When telithromycin was coadministered intravenously with cyclosporine in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, cyclosporine significantly delayed the disappearance of telithromycin from plasma and decreased its systemic clearance to 60% of the corresponding control values. Hepatobiliary excretion experiments revealed that cyclosporine almost completely inhibited the biliary clearance of telithromycin, suggesting that telithromycin is a substrate of P glycoprotein and a potential substrate of Mrp2. Moreover, the biliary clearance of telithromycin was significantly decreased by 80% in Eisai hyperbilirubinemic mutant rats with a hereditary deficiency in Mrp2, indicating that Mrp2, as well as P glycoprotein, plays an important role in the biliary excretion of telithromycin. When the effect of telithromycin on the biliary excretion of doxorubicin, a substrate of P glycoprotein and Mrp2, was examined in SD rats, telithromycin significantly decreased the biliary clearance of doxorubicin by 80%. Results obtained from this study indicate that telithromycin is a substrate of both P glycoprotein and Mrp2, and these transporters are involved in the hepatobiliary transport of telithromycin.

Abstract
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 infection causes severe clinical symptoms, due to its bacterial toxin, called Shiga-like toxin (SLT). However, little is known about the information to establish a safe and efficient prescription to treat for EHEC O157:H7 patients. Thus, we investigated the effect of SLT-II on intestinal function in rats by using the antibiotic norfloxacin (NFLX) as a model drug. The intestinal clearance (CLi) of NFLX, determined by loop method in the jejunum, was significantly decreased by SLT-II. In histopathological experiment, epithalaxia was observed in SLT-II-treated rats without structural changes of tight junction suggesting the deterioration of active transport systems by SLT-II. CLi of NFLX in normal rats was decreased by carnitine (CAR), suggesting the possible involvement of CAR-sensitive transporter in CLi of NFLX. Taken together, these results suggest that the EHEC O157:H7 infection might affect the intestinal disposition of NFLX due to the changing intestinal expression/function of drug transporters by SLT-II.

Gender-related differences in expression and function of hepatic P-glycoprotein and multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp2) in rats. Life Sci 2006; 79:455-61. [PMID: 16483613 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2006.01.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2005] [Revised: 01/04/2006] [Accepted: 01/18/2006] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
To clarify whether gender-related differences exist in the expression and function of hepatic P-glycoprotein- and/or multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp2), we measured the hepatobiliary excretion of doxorubicin and their protein levels in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. When rats received a single intravenous injection of doxorubicin (5 mg/kg), a delay in the disappearance of doxorubicin from plasma was observed in male rats. When rats received a constant-rate infusion of doxorubicin, no significant gender-related differences in the apparent biliary clearance of doxorubicin based on the steady state plasma concentrations were observed between male and female rats. However, the net biliary clearance of doxorubicin based on the liver concentration, which represents the actual function of P-glycoprotein and/or Mrp2, was higher in female rats than in male rats. These results suggest that the actual function of the hepatobiliary transport of doxorubicin is greater in female than in male rats. Western blot analysis revealed that the expression of P-glycoprotein and Mrp2 in the liver of female rats was significantly higher than in male rats, similar to results of hepatobiliary excretion experiments. The expression of hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B1, which is involved in the metabolism of doxorubicin, was significantly higher in male than in female rats. By pretreatment with testosterone (10 mg/day for 7 days), the actual biliary clearance of doxorubicin in female rats was nearly that of male rats. The protein levels of P-glycoprotein and Mrp2 in female rats were also lowered by treatment with testosterone so as to be nearer those in male rats. These results suggest that gender-related differences exist in P-glycoprotein- and Mrp2-mediated hepatobiliary transport and that these two transporters may be regulated by sex hormones.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A significant number of patients treated with anthracyclines develop cardiotoxicity (anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity [ACT]), mainly presenting as arrhythmias (acute ACT) or congestive heart failure (chronic ACT). There are no data on pharmacogenomic predictors of ACT. METHODS AND RESULTS We genotyped participants of the German non-Hodgkin lymphoma study (NHL-B) who were followed up for the development of heart failure for a median of >3 years. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected from 82 genes with conceivable relevance to ACT. Of 1697 patients, 55 developed acute and 54 developed chronic ACT (cumulative incidence of either form, 3.2%). We detected 5 significant associations with polymorphisms of the NAD(P)H oxidase and doxorubicin efflux transporters. Chronic ACT was associated with a variant of the NAD(P)H oxidase subunit NCF4 (rs1883112, -212A-->G; symbols with right-pointing arrows, as edited?' odds ratio [OR], 2.5; 95% CI, 1.3 to 5.0). Acute ACT was associated with the His72Tyr polymorphism in the p22phox subunit (rs4673; OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.0 to 3.9) and with the variant 7508T-->A (rs13058338; OR, 2.6; 95% CI, 1.3 to 5.1) of the RAC2 subunit of the same enzyme. In agreement with these results, mice deficient in NAD(P)H oxidase activity, unlike wild-type mice, were resistant to chronic doxorubicin treatment. In addition, acute ACT was associated with the Gly671Val variant of the doxorubicin efflux transporter multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) (OR, 3.6; 95% CI, 1.6 to 8.4) and with the Val1188Glu-Cys1515Tyr (rs8187694-rs8187710) haplotype of the functionally similar MRP2 (OR, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.0 to 5.4). Polymorphisms in adrenergic receptors previously demonstrated to be predictive of heart failure were not associated with ACT. CONCLUSIONS Genetic variants in doxorubicin transport and free radical metabolism may modulate the individual risk to develop ACT.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (PGP) encoded by the Mdr1 gene mediates the excretion of drugs in organs such as the liver and kidney. Inflammation has been shown to suppress the expression and activity of PGP in rodent liver, thus potentially altering the pharmacokinetics of drugs that are substrates of PGP. Here we examined the effect of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide; LPS)-induced inflammation on the disposition of the PGP substrate doxorubicin (DOX) in the mouse. Male CD-1 mice received 5 mg/kg LPS intraperitoneally. DOX (5 mg/kg) was administered intravenously 24 h after LPS treatment. The time course of DOX levels in plasma, urine, bile, and tissues was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. PGP protein and mRNA expression in liver and kidney was measured using Western blots and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. As compared to controls, LPS-treated mice exhibited a significant decrease (50%) in biliary clearance and 3-fold increased renal clearance of DOX. These changes were associated with strongly reduced PGP protein levels (30% controls, p < 0.05) in the liver and increased PGP levels in the kidney (140% controls, p < 0.05). Hepatic mRNA levels of all Mdr isoforms were reduced in LPS-treated mice, whereas renal Mdr1b levels were increased. In LPS-treated mice, we also measured an increased area under the plasma concentration-time curve and reduced systemic clearance of DOX, as well as a 2- to 5-fold increase in the urinary excretion of the doxorubicin and doxorubicinol aglycones. Our data suggest that endotoxin-induced inflammation in mice causes differential regulation of PGP in liver and kidney, thereby altering the clearance profile of DOX.

Abstract
We investigated the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in the down-regulation of hepatic P-glycoprotein and cytochrome P450 (CYP) by endotoxin, using TNF-alpha gene-deficient (TNF-alpha-/-) mice. In the case of P-glycoprotein, endotoxin (10 mg/kg) significantly decreased the expression of hepatic P-glycoprotein in wild-type mice 6 h, but not 24 h, after intraperitoneal injection, with no significant differences in the constitutional expression of P-glycoprotein between wild-type mice and TNF-alpha-/- mice. However, endotoxin had no effect on the expression of P-glycoprotein in TNF-alpha-/- mice either 6 or 24 h after injection. When doxorubicin was administered intravenously to TNF-alpha-/- mice treated 6 h earlier with and without endotoxin, no significant differences in the plasma concentrations of doxorubicin 3 h after injection were observed between endotoxin-treated and untreated TNF-alpha-/- mice. These results suggest that TNF-alpha plays a pivotal role in the down-regulation of P-glycoprotein by endotoxin. In the case of CYP, the constitutive expression of hepatic CYP3A2 and CYP2C11 had a tendency to decline in TNF-alpha-/- mice compared with that in wild-type mice. Endotoxin significantly decreased the expression of hepatic CYP3A2 and CYP2C11 in wild-type mice 24 h after injection, and that decreased expression was significantly greater in TNF-alpha-/- mice than wild-type mice. When antipyrine was administered intravenously to wild-type mice and TNF-alpha-/- mice treated 24 h earlier with endotoxin, the plasma concentrations of antipyrine in TNF-alpha-/- mice 3 h after injection were significantly higher than those in wild-type mice. These findings suggest that TNF-alpha plays a key role in endotoxin-induced down-regulation of hepatic P-glycoprotein, as well as plays a protective role in the regulation of hepatic CYP3A2 and CYP2C11 against endotoxin-induced acute inflammatory response. In TNF-alpha-/- mice, other cytokines appear to function as compensation for the lack of endogenous TNF-alpha.

Abstract
The present study aims to investigate whether pazufloxacin, a new quinolone antimicrobial agent, is a substrate for P-glycoprotein in vitro, and whether it is excreted from kidney by P-glycoprotein and/or multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp2) in vivo. The in vitro experiments showed that the intracellular accumulation of pazufloxacin in adriamycin-resistant human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells (K562/ADR) overexpressing P-glycoprotein was significantly lower than that in human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells (K562/S) not expressing P-glycoprotein. When rats received an intravenous injection of pazufloxacin in combination with or without cyclosporine, cyclosporine significantly delayed the disappearance of pazufloxacin from plasma and decreased the systemic clearance and volume of distribution at steady state of pazufloxacin to 50% and 70% of the corresponding control values, respectively. Renal handling experiments revealed that the renal clearance of pazufloxacin was 75% of that corresponding to the systemic clearance, suggesting that the main route of pazufloxacin elimination is the kidney. Cyclosporine significantly increased the steady-state concentration of pazufloxacin in plasma by decreasing the tubular secretion clearance and glomerular filtration rate. These results suggest the possibility that pazufloxacin is excreted into the urine via P-glycoprotein. No significant differences in the renal and tubular secretion clearances of pazufloxacin were observed between normal rats and Eisai hyperbilirubinemic rats (EHBR), which have a hereditary deficiency in Mrp2, indicating the lack of the involvement of Mrp2 in the renal excretion of pazufloxacin. Sparfloxacin, a P-glycoprotein substrate, also significantly decreased the renal and tubular secretion clearances of pazufloxacin, suggesting that pazufloxacin and sparfloxacin share the same transporters, including P-glycoprotein. The present study at least suggests that pazufloxacin is excreted into the urine via P-glycoprotein and some active drug transporters other than Mrp2.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 infection frequently induces clinical complications such as hemolytic uremic syndromes and intestinal dysfunctions. These changes could alter the disposition of drugs, consequently changing their efficacy. However, the possible changes of drug-metabolizing activities by E. coli O157:H7 infection have not been addressed. Thus, we have investigated the effect of Shiga-like toxin type II (SLT-II), derived from E. coli O157:H7, on the hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) content and its activity in rats. SLT-II (2microg per animal, i.v.) time-dependently decreased total CYP content and the contents of CYP2C11 and CYP3A2 in hepatic microsomal preparations up to 24hr following injection. Consistently, SLT-II time-dependently decreased CYP activity in vivo, as represented by systemic clearance of antipyrine. An inhibitor of inducible nitric oxide synthase, S-methylisothiourea, restored the decreased systemic clearance of antipyrine by SLT-II, suggesting the involvement of the overproduction of nitric oxide by SLT-II. Moreover, dexamethasone restored the decreased systemic clearance of antipyrine by SLT-II. In the hepatic microsomal preparation, dexamethasone restored the SLT-II-induced decrease of CYP3A2 whereas S-methylisothiourea did not affect both CYP subtypes. Taken together, these results suggest that SLT-II might alter hepatic drug-metabolizing function during E. coli O157 infection and that more than one cytokines induced by SLT-II, including nitric oxide, might make a critical contribution to the decrease of CYP content and its activity.

Abstract
The present study aims to investigate whether azithromycin reverses P-glycoprotein-dependent anticancer drug resistance in vitro and modifies the hepatobiliary excretion of doxorubicin, a substrate for P-glycoprotein in vivo. Azithromycin increased dose-dependently the intracellular accumulation of doxorubicin in adriamycin-resistant human myelogenous leukemia cells (K562/ADR) with no effect on the expression of P-glycoprotein in the cells. However, the inhibitory effect was much weaker than that of cyclosporin A and was comparable to that of erythromycin. When Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, which have drug transporting P-glycoprotein and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2) in the bile canalicular membrane of hepatocytes, received an infusion of doxorubicin, the steady-state biliary clearance of doxorubicin was significantly decreased for 40 min after a single intravenous injection of azithromycin. However, azithromycin did not increase the plasma concentration of doxorubicin. The biliary clearance of doxorubicin in Eisai hyperbilirubinemic rats (EHBRs), which have a hereditary deficiency in Mrp2, was significantly decreased compared with that in Sprague-Dawley rats, suggesting the involvement of Mrp2 in the biliary excretion of doxorubicin. The present findings suggest that azithromycin overcomes P-glycoprotein-dependent anticancer drug resistance of tumors by inhibiting the binding of doxorubicin to P-glycoprotein in K562/ADR cells and inhibits the hepatobiliary excretion of drugs that are substrates for P-glycoprotein and Mrp2.
