Abstract
The high mortality rate due to chemoresistance in patients with high-grade ovarian cancer (HGSOC) emphasizes the urgent need to determine optimal treatment strategies for advanced and recurrent cases. Our study investigates the interplay between estrogens and chemoresistance in HGSOC and shows clear differences between platinum-sensitive and -resistant tumors. Through comprehensive transcriptome analyzes, we uncover differences in the expression of genes of estrogen biosynthesis, metabolism, transport and action underlying platinum resistance in different tissues of HGSOC subtypes and in six HGSOC cell lines. Furthermore, we identify genes involved in estrogen biosynthesis and metabolism as prognostic biomarkers for HGSOC. Additionally, our study elucidates different patterns of estrogen formation/metabolism and their effects on cell proliferation between six HGSOC cell lines with different platinum sensitivity. These results emphasize the dynamic interplay between estrogens and HGSOC chemoresistance. In particular, targeting the activity of steroid sulfatase (STS) proves to be a promising therapeutic approach with potential efficacy in limiting estrogen-driven cell proliferation. Our study reveals potential prognostic markers as well as identifies novel therapeutic targets that show promise for overcoming resistance and improving treatment outcomes in HGSOC.

The Renin-Angiotensin System Involvement in Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity: An Overview of Physiological and Pathological Mechanisms-A Systematic Review. Int J Nephrol 2024; 2024:1511216. [PMID: 38799728 PMCID: PMC11127762 DOI: 10.1155/2024/1511216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) is a highly potent chemotherapy drug. But its nephrotoxicity poses a significant limitation to its use. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been proposed to play a role in drug-induced nephrotoxicity. This systematic review (SR) sought to identify the link between CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity and the RAS pathway. In this SR, relevant keywords were employed to explore databases such as PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus (Elsevier), and Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) Web of Science up to October 2023. Nine studies were selected based on predefined inclusion/exclusion criteria. The findings support the involvement of the RAS in the CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity model, along with the activation of inflammatory mediators, lipid peroxidation, and changes in markers of kidney tissue damage. Furthermore, physiology and pathology of RAS-related interventions in CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity models have involved the factors such as human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2), organic anion transporting polypeptides 1B1 (OATP1B1) and 1B3, kallikrein-kinin system, and bradykinin receptors. CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity has been found to be substantially influenced by both classic and nonclassic RAS axes. Angiotensin II exacerbates renal damage induced by CDDP. Conversely, inhibiting the pressor arm of RAS in males mitigates this damage. However, activation of the renal vasodepressor arm of RAS exacerbates CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity in females. These findings underscore gender differences in renal function and response to RAS-related interventions in the presence of CDDP. This SR provides insights into both beneficial and adverse interventions associated with RAS in the CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity, offering valuable considerations for researchers and clinicians.

Impact of liver diseases and pharmacological interactions on the transportome involved in hepatic drug disposition. Biochem Pharmacol 2024:116166. [PMID: 38527556 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116166] [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: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
The liver plays a pivotal role in drug disposition owing to the expression of transporters accounting for the uptake at the sinusoidal membrane and the efflux across the basolateral and canalicular membranes of hepatocytes of many different compounds. Moreover, intracellular mechanisms of phases I and II biotransformation generate, in general, inactive compounds that are more polar and easier to eliminate into bile or refluxed back toward the blood for their elimination by the kidneys, which becomes crucial when the biliary route is hampered. The set of transporters expressed at a given time, i.e., the so-called transportome, is encoded by genes belonging to two gene superfamilies named Solute Carriers (SLC) and ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC), which account mainly, but not exclusively, for the uptake and efflux of endogenous substances and xenobiotics, which include many different drugs. Besides the existence of genetic variants, which determines a marked interindividual heterogeneity regarding liver drug disposition among patients, prevalent diseases, such as cirrhosis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and several cholestatic liver diseases, can alter the transportome and hence affect the pharmacokinetics of drugs used to treat these patients. Moreover, hepatic drug transporters are involved in many drug-drug interactions (DDI) that challenge the safety of using a combination of agents handled by these proteins. Updated information on these questions has been organized in this article by superfamilies and families of members of the transportome involved in hepatic drug disposition.

Toxicon 2024; 238:107592. [PMID: 38163460 DOI: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2023.107592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The protein phosphatase inhibitor microcystin-LR (MC-LR), a hepatocyte-selective cyanotoxin, induces phenotypic changes in HEK293 OATP1B3-expressing (HEK293-OATP1B3) cells, which include cytoskeletal reorganization (HEK293-OATP1B3-AD) and anoikis resistance (HEK293-OATP1B3-FL) transformed cells, respectively. These cells acquire resistance to MC-LR and partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) characteristics. In cancer cells, EMT is generally involved in multi-drug resistance. Here, we focused on the multi-drug resistance of HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells. The MTT assay and immunoblotting were conducted to examine the responses of HEK293-OATP1B3, HEK293-OATP1B3-AD, and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells to multiple toxins and drugs that function as substrates for OATP1B3, including MC-LR, nodularin (Nod), okadaic acid (OA), and cisplatin (CDDP). HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells were more resistant to MC-LR, Nod, and OA than HEK293-OATP1B3 cells. Conversely, the three cell types were equivalently sensitive to CDDP. By using protein phosphatase assay, the reduction of the inhibitory effect of MC-LR and Nod on phosphatase activity might be one reason for the resistance to MC-LR and Nod in HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells. Furthermore, the parental HEK293-OATP1B3 cells showed enhanced p53 phosphorylation and stabilization after MC-LR exposure, while p53 phosphorylation was attenuated in HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells. Moreover, in HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells, AKT phosphorylation was higher than that of the parental HEK293-OATP1B3 cell line. These results suggest that the multi-toxin resistance observed in HEK293-OATP1B3-AD and HEK293-OATP1B3-FL cells is associated with AKT activation and p53 inactivation.

[PMID: 38145344 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202302019r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023]
Abstract
Cisplatin (Cis) is among the most powerful antineoplastic medications, nevertheless, its serious side effects; particularly nephrotoxicity designates a major concern. Previous studies reported that ezetimibe (Eze), a well-known antihyperlipidemic drug, exerts additional trivial pharmacological effects. In this work, we displayed Eze as an intriguing protective candidate in a cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity rat model through AMPK activation. Eze (10 mg/kg, p.o.) was administered for two weeks and Cis (10 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered on the 10th day to induce nephrotoxicity in male Wistar rats. Treatment with Eze greatly augmented the phosphorylation of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and the antioxidant regulator; nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), thus, mitigating oxidative injury through induction of the antioxidant enzymes, such as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and glutathione reductase (GR). As well, Eze relieved inflammation by reducing protein expression of thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) and nucleotide-binding domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), which led to a decrease in the release of caspase-1, in addition to, the inflammatory markers IL-18 and IL-1 β. Besides, Eze ameliorated apoptosis in the renal cells through inhibiting the phosphorylated Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase-1(p-ASK1), caspase-3 and reducing Bax/Bcl2ratio. Correspondingly, histopathological examination corroborated the previous biochemical findings. Collectively, Eze exerts significant renal protection against Cis-induced nephrotoxicity via antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic pathways that are probably mediated, at least partly, via activating AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and conquering both TXNIP/NLRP3 inflammasome and TXNIP/ASK1 signaling pathways. To confirm the protective effect of Eze via AMPK-activation, an AMPK-inhibitor, dorsomorphin (Dors), when co-administered with Eze abolished its protective effect.

Eur Radiol 2023; 33:8764-8775.

Abstract
Recent advances in systemic therapy have had major impacts on treatment strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The 2022 Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) guidelines incorporate a new section on clinical decision-making for personalized medicine, although the first treatment suggested by the BCLC guidelines is based on solid scientific evidence. More than ever before, the appropriate treatment strategy must be selected prior to the initiation of therapy for HCC. Gadolinium ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid magnetic resonance imaging (Gd-EOB-DTPA-MRI) is essential for liver imaging and the hepatobiliary phase (HBP) of EOB-MRI reflects the expression of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) transporters. Molecules associated with OATP expression are relevant in the molecular classification of HCC subclasses, and EOB-MRI is becoming increasingly important with advances in the molecular and genetic understanding of HCC. In this review, we describe imaging findings for the pretreatment prediction of response to standard therapies for HCC based on the BCLC algorithm using the HBP of EOB-MRI, with specific attention to the molecular background of OATPs. A more complete understanding of these findings will help radiologists suggest appropriate treatments and clinical follow-ups and could lead to the development of more personalized treatment strategies in the future. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: In the coming era of personalized medicine, HBP of EOB-MRI reflecting molecular and pathological factors could play a predictive role in the therapeutic efficacy of HCC and contribute to treatment selection. KEY POINTS: • Imaging features of hepatobiliary phase predict treatment efficacy prior to therapy and contribute to treatment choice. • Wnt/β-catenin activation associated with organic anion transporting polypeptide expression is involved in the tumor immune microenvironment and chemo-responsiveness. • Peritumoral hypointensity of hepatobiliary phase reflecting microvascular invasion affects the therapeutic efficacy of locoregional to systemic therapy.

In Vivo 2023; 37:2044-2056. [PMID: 37652484 PMCID: PMC10500535 DOI: 10.21873/invivo.13302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM CBLB502, a Toll-like receptor-5 agonist derived from Salmonella flagellin, exerts protective roles against irradiation and chemical drugs in mammalian tissues and stimulates tissue regeneration. This study aimed to investigate whether CBLB502 can protect against liver and kidney damage induced by the chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin (CDDP) and the underlying mechanism of the protective effect. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice were pretreated with CBLB502 [0.2 mg/kg, intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection] 0.5 h prior to administration of CDDP (20 mg/kg, i.p. injection), and analyses of the liver and kidney indices, blood biochemistry, and histopathology were performed. RESULTS Pretreatment with CBLB502 alleviated CDDP-induced liver and kidney damage. RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis indicated that CDDP induced a similar damage-promoting gene regulation pattern in the liver and kidney. CBLB502 protected against liver and kidney damage only after CDDP treatment primarily via different pathways. However, some CBLB502-regulated genes were common between the liver and kidney, including those involved in blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, hemostasis, apoptotic regulation, NF-kappaB signaling, and response to lipopolysaccharide, suggesting a general protective effect by CBLB502. CONCLUSION Our data provide insights into the protective mechanism of CBLB502 against CDDP-induced tissue damage in the liver and kidney and might provide a basis for future studies on functional genes and regulatory mechanisms that mediate protection against chemoradiotherapy-induced damage.

Abstract
Vincristine is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug for the treatment of multiple malignant diseases that causes a dose-limiting peripheral neurotoxicity. There is no clinically effective preventative treatment for vincristine-induced sensory peripheral neurotoxicity (VIPN), and mechanistic details of this side effect remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that VIPN is dependent on transporter-mediated vincristine accumulation in dorsal root ganglion neurons. Using a xenobiotic transporter screen, we identified OATP1B3 as a neuronal transporter regulating the uptake of vincristine. In addition, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of the murine orthologue transporter OATP1B2 protected mice from various hallmarks of VIPN - including mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia, and changes in digital maximal action potential amplitudes and neuronal morphology - without negatively affecting plasma levels or antitumor effects of vincristine. Finally, we identified α-tocopherol from an untargeted metabolomics analysis as a circulating endogenous biomarker of neuronal OATP1B2 function, and it could serve as a companion diagnostic to guide dose selection of OATP1B-type transport modulators given in combination with vincristine to prevent VIPN. Collectively, our findings shed light on the fundamental basis of VIPN and provide a rationale for the clinical development of transporter inhibitors to prevent this debilitating side effect.

Puris E, Fricker G, Gynther M. The Role of Solute Carrier Transporters in Efficient Anticancer Drug Delivery and Therapy. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020364. [PMID: 36839686 PMCID: PMC9966068 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15020364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Transporter-mediated drug resistance is a major obstacle in anticancer drug delivery and a key reason for cancer drug therapy failure. Membrane solute carrier (SLC) transporters play a crucial role in the cellular uptake of drugs. The expression and function of the SLC transporters can be down-regulated in cancer cells, which limits the uptake of drugs into the tumor cells, resulting in the inefficiency of the drug therapy. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of low-SLC-transporter-expression-mediated drug resistance in different types of cancers. Recent advances in SLC-transporter-targeting strategies include the development of transporter-utilizing prodrugs and nanocarriers and the modulation of SLC transporter expression in cancer cells. These strategies will play an important role in the future development of anticancer drug therapies by enabling the efficient delivery of drugs into cancer cells.

Polymorphisms in solute carrier genes (SLC19A1, SLCO1B1, and SLCO1B3) predicts survival and toxicity in North Indian lung cancer patients undergoing platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. J Clin Pharm Ther 2022; 47:2049-2067. [PMID: 35896189 DOI: 10.1111/jcpt.13748] [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: 06/19/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Solute Carrier (SLC) transporters are known mediators of drug disposition that facilitate the influx of substrates and various chemotherapeutic agents into cells. Polymorphisms in the SLC19A1, SLCO1B1, and SLCO1B3 gene influence the prognosis in the cancer patients, but little is known about their role in lung cancer in Asians. So, the current study aims to investigate the polymorphisms in SLC19A1, SLCO1B1, and SLCO1B3 genes in Northern Indian lung cancer patients. METHODS Patients with lung cancer who had a confirmed histology and cytology diagnosis were enrolled in the study. SLC polymorphisms were assessed by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for variations in SLC19A1 (G80 A), SLCO1B1 (A388 G, T521 C), and SLCO1B3 (A1683-5676 G). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Our results showed that mutant genotype for SLC19A1 G80 A polymorphism had higher median survival time (MST) compared to wild genotype. ADCC patients with mutant genotype showed better survival compared to wild genotype for SLC19A1 G80 A. SCLC patients G80 A polymorphism showed increased survival in patients with mutant genotype (p = 0.04). In SLCO1B3, A1683-5676 G patients carrying heterozygous alleles and administered with platinum and docetaxel showed inferior survival (p = 0.006). In T521 C variant, patients with carrier genotype had reduced chances of developing anaemia (p = 0.04). Patients with SLC19A1 and SLCO1B3 variants showed lower incidence of thrombocytopenia and nephrotoxicity. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Our findings imply that Solute Carrier gene polymorphisms modulate the overall survival in lung cancer patients undergoing platin-based doublet chemotherapy, also these polymorphisms have a modifying impact on the associated adverse events/toxicity.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (OIPN) is a debilitating side effect that afflicts ~90% of patients that is initiated by OCT2-dependent uptake of oxaliplatin in DRG neurons. The antidepressant drug duloxetine has been used to treat OIPN, although its usefulness in preventing this side effect remains unclear. We hypothesized that duloxetine has OCT2-inhibitory properties and can be used as an adjunct to oxaliplatin-based regimens to prevent OIPN. Transport studies were performed in cells stably transfected with mouse or human OCT2 and in isolated mouse DRG neurons ex vivo. Wild-type and OCT2-deficient mice were used to assess effects of duloxetine on hallmarks of OIPN, endogenous OCT2 biomarkers, and the pharmacokinetics of oxaliplatin, and the translational feasibility of a duloxetine-oxaliplatin combination was evaluated in various models of colorectal cancer. We found that duloxetine potently inhibited the OCT2-mediated transport of several xenobiotic substrates, including oxaliplatin, in a reversible, concentration-dependent manner, and independent of species and cell context. Furthermore, duloxetine restricted access of these substrates to DRG neurons ex vivo and prevented OIPN in wild-type mice to a degree similar to the complete protection observed in OCT2-deficient mice, without affecting the plasma levels of oxaliplatin. Importantly, the uptake and cytotoxicity of oxaliplatin in tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo were not negatively influenced by duloxetine. The observed OCT2-targeting properties of duloxetine, combined with the potential for clinical translation, provide support for its further exploration as a therapeutic candidate for studies aimed at preventing OIPN in cancer patients requiring treatment with oxaliplatin. Significance We found that duloxetine has potent OCT2-inhibitory properties and can diminish excessive accumulation of oxaliplatin into DRG neurons. In addition, pre-treatment of mice with duloxetine prevented OIPN without significantly altering the plasma pharmacokinetics and antitumor properties of oxaliplatin. These results suggest that intentional inhibition of OCT2-mediated transport by duloxetine can be employed as a prevention strategy to ameliorate OIPN without compromising the effectiveness of oxaliplatin-based treatment.

A Metabolomics Approach for Predicting OATP1B-Type Transporter-Mediated Drug–Drug Interaction Liabilities. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14091933. [PMID: 36145680 PMCID: PMC9502272 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14091933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
In recent years, various endogenous compounds have been proposed as putative biomarkers for the hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 that have the potential to predict transporter-mediated drug–drug interactions (DDIs). However, these compounds have often been identified from top–down strategies and have not been fully utilized as a substitute for traditional DDI studies. In an attempt to eliminate observer bias in biomarker selection, we applied a bottom–up, untargeted metabolomics screening approach in mice and found that plasma levels of the conjugated bile acid chenodeoxycholate-24-glucuronide (CDCA-24G) are particularly sensitive to deletion of the orthologous murine transporter Oatp1b2 (31-fold increase vs. wild type) or the entire Oatp1a/1b(−/−)cluster (83-fold increased), whereas the humanized transgenic overexpression of hepatic OATP1B1 or OATP1B3 resulted in the partial restoration of transport function. Validation studies with the OATP1B1/OATP1B3 inhibitors rifampin and paclitaxel in vitro as well as in mice and human subjects confirmed that CDCA-24G is a sensitive and rapid response biomarker to dose-dependent transporter inhibition. Collectively, our study confirmed the ability of CDCA-24G to serve as a sensitive and selective endogenous biomarker of OATP1B-type transport function and suggests a template for the future development of biomarkers for other clinically important xenobiotic transporters.

Abstract
Improvements in screening, diagnosis and treatment of cancer has seen cancer mortality substantially diminish in the past three decades. It is estimated there are almost 20 million cancer survivors in the USA alone, but some 40% live with chronic pain after completing treatment. While a broad definition of survivorship that includes all people living with, through and beyond a cancer diagnosis—including those with active cancer—is often used, this narrative review primarily focuses on the management of pain in people who are disease-free after completing primary cancer treatment as adults. Chronic pain in this population needs a different approach to that used for people with a limited prognosis. After describing the common chronic pain syndromes caused by cancer treatment, and the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved, the pharmacologic management of entities such as post-surgical pain, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, aromatase inhibitor musculoskeletal syndrome and checkpoint inhibitor-related pain are described. The challenges associated with opioid prescribing in this population are given special attention. Expert guidelines on pain management in cancer survivors now recommend a combination of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic modalities, and these are also briefly covered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We previously reported that the concomitant use of enalapril and telmisartan exacerbates the risk of cisplatin (CDDP)-induced acute renal dysfunction compared to other antihypertensive drugs in mice. Thus, in the current study, we investigated the risk of developing chronic kidney disease following repeated concomitant use of CDDP and antihypertensive drugs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male BALB/c mice were divided into 12 groups: (1) Control group (untreated), (2) CDDP group (7 mg/kg, CDDP), (3) AML group (5 mg/kg, amlodipine), (4) ENA group (2.5 mg/kg, enalapril), (5) TEL group (10 mg/kg, telmisartan), (6) LOS group (10 mg/kg, losartan), (7) CDDP+AML group (5 mg/mL, AML), (8) CDDP+ENA group (2.5 mg/kg, ENA), (9) CDDP+LowENA group (1.25 mg/kg, ENA), (10) CDDP+TEL group (10 mg/kg, TEL), (11) CDDP+LowTEL group (5 mg/kg, TEL), and (12) CDDP+LOS group (10 mg/kg, LOS). CDDP was administered intraperitoneally four times every 7 days, and each antihypertensive drug was administered orally from day 3 before CDDP administration until day 24 (six times a week). The degree of renal damage was assessed. The nephrotoxicity of each individual was evaluated by measuring serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. The degrees of renal fibrosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition were also examined in kidney tissue sections. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The results suggest that combinatorial treatment of CDDP and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors, particularly ENA and TEL, may exacerbate CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity. This study clearly demonstrates the need for large-scale clinical studies to construct treatment regimens that do not interfere with the therapeutic intensity of CDDP.

Abstract
The membrane transport of many cationic prescription drugs depends on facilitated transport by organic cation transporters of which several members, including OCT2 (SLC22A2), are sensitive to inhibition by select tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). We hypothesized that TKIs may differentially interact with the renal transporter MATE1 (SLC47A1) and influence the elimination and toxicity of the MATE1 substrate oxaliplatin. Interactions with FDA-approved TKIs were evaluated in transfected HEK293 cells, and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies were performed in wild-type, MATE1-deficient, and OCT2/MATE1-deficient mice. Of 57 TKIs evaluated, 37 potently inhibited MATE1 function by >80% through a non-competitive, reversible, substrate-independent mechanism. The urinary excretion of oxaliplatin was reduced by about 2-fold in mice with a deficiency of MATE1 or both OCT2 and MATE1 (p < 0.05), without impacting markers of acute renal injury. In addition, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of MATE1 did not significantly alter plasma levels of oxaliplatin, suggesting that MATE1 inhibitors are unlikely to influence the safety or drug-drug interaction liability of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Rotor syndrome is caused by digenic loss-of-function variants in SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 but only a few studies have reported co-occurring inactivating variants from both genes. A rotor syndrome-causing long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1) insertion in SLCO1B3 had been reported to be highly prevalent in the Japanese population but there has been no additional report. In spite of its known association with various human diseases, LINE-1 is hard to detect with current sequencing technologies. In this study, we aimed to devise a method to screen the LINE-1 insertion variant and investigate the frequency of this variant in various populations. A chimeric sequence, that was generated by concatenating the reference sequence at the junction and a part of inserted LINE-1 sequence, was searched from 725 raw sequencing data files. In cases containing the chimeric sequence, confirmatory long-range PCR and gap-PCR were performed. In total, 95 (13.1%) of 725 patients were positive for the chimeric sequence, and all were confirmed to have the SLCO1B3 LINE-1 insertion by PCR-based tests. The same chimeric sequence was searched from the 1000 Genomes Project data repository and the carrier frequency was remarkably high in the East Asian populations (10.1%), especially in Southern Han Chinese (18.5%), but almost absent in other populations. This SLCO1B3 LINE-1 insertion should be screened in a population-specific manner under suspicion of Rotor syndrome and the methods proposed in this study would enable this in a simple way.

Abstract
Endometrial cancer (EC) is associated with increased estrogen actions. Locally, estrogens can be formed from estrone-sulphate (E1-S) after cellular uptake by organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATP) or organic anion transporters (OAT). Efflux of E1-S is enabled by ATP Binding Cassette transporters (ABC) and organic solute transporter (OST)αβ. Currently, 19 E1-S transporters are known but their roles in EC are not yet understood. Here, we analysed levels of E1-S transporters in Ishikawa (premenopausal EC), HEC-1-A (postmenopausal EC), HIEEC (control) cell lines, in EC tissue, examined metabolism of steroid precursor E1-S, studied effects of OATPs' inhibition and gene-silencing on E1-S uptake, and assessed associations between transporters and histopathological data. Results revealed enhanced E1-S metabolism in HEC-1-A versus Ishikawa which could be explained by higher levels of OATPs in HEC-1-A versus Ishikawa, especially 6.3-fold up-regulation of OATP1B3 (SLCO1B3), as also confirmed by immunocytochemical staining and gene silencing studies, lower ABCG2 expression and higher levels of sulfatase (STS). In EC versus adjacent control tissue the highest differences were seen for ABCG2 and SLC51B (OSTβ) which were 3.0-fold and 2.1-fold down-regulated, respectively. Immunohistochemistry confirmed lower levels of these two transporters in EC versus adjacent control tissue. Further analysis of histopathological data indicated that SLCO1B3 might be important for uptake of E1-S in tumours without lymphovascular invasion where it was 15.6-fold up-regulated as compared to adjacent control tissue. Our results clearly indicate the importance of E1-S transporters in EC pathophysiology and provide a base for further studies towards development of targeted treatment.

Abstract
Peripheral neurotoxicity is a debilitating condition that afflicts up to 90% of patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin-containing therapy. Although emerging evidence has highlighted the importance of various solute carriers to the toxicity of anticancer drugs, the contribution of these proteins to oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neurotoxicity remains controversial. Among candidate transporters investigated in genetically engineered mouse models, we provide evidence for a critical role of the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) in satellite glial cells in oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity, and demonstrate that targeting OCT2 using genetic and pharmacological approaches ameliorates acute and chronic forms of neurotoxicity. The relevance of this transport system was verified in transporter-deficient rats as a secondary model organism, and translational significance of preventive strategies was demonstrated in preclinical models of colorectal cancer. These studies suggest that pharmacological targeting of OCT2 could be exploited to afford neuroprotection in cancer patients requiring treatment with oxaliplatin.

Abstract
Cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathic pain is a common adverse effect of chemotherapy. The present study evaluated the effects of 2'-chloro-6-methylflavone (2'-Cl-6MF) at recombinant α1β2γ2L, α2β1-3γ2L, and α3β1-3γ2L GABA-A receptor subtypes expressed in Xenopus oocytes and subsequently evaluated its effectiveness in cisplatin-induced neuropathic pain. The results showed that 2'-Cl-6MF potentiated GABA-elicited currents at α2β2/3γ2L and α3β2/3γ2L GABA-A receptor subtypes. The potentiation was blocked by the co-application of flumazenil (a benzodiazepine (BDZs) site antagonist). In behavioral studies, mechanical allodynia was induced by intraplantar injection of cisplatin (40 μg/paw) in Sprague Dawley rats, and behavioral assessments were made 24 h after injection. 2'-Cl-6MF (1, 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg, i.p.), was administered 1 h before behavioral evaluation. Administration of 2'-Cl-6MF (30 and 100 mg/kg, i.p) significantly enhanced the paw withdrawal threshold and decreased mechanical allodynia. The standard drugs, gabapentin (GBP) at the dose of 70 mg/kg, and HZ 166 (16 mg/kg), i.p. also significantly enhanced the paw withdrawal threshold in mechanical allodynia. Pretreatment with pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) (15 mg/kg, i.p.) and flumazenil reversed the antinociceptive effect of 2'-Cl-6MF in mechanical allodynia indicating GABAergic mechanisms. Moreover, the binding mechanism of 2'-Cl-6MF was rationalized by in silico modeling tools. The 3D-coordinates of α2β2γ2L and α2β3γ2L were generated after homology modeling of the α2 subtype and 2'-Cl-6MF was at predicted binding sites of the developed models. The α2 model was compared with the α1 and α3 subunits via structural and sequence alignment. Molecular docking depicted that the compound binds efficiently at the neuromodulator binding site of the receptors. The findings of this study revealed that 2'-Cl-6MF ameliorated the manifestations of cisplatin-induced neuropathic pain in rats. Furthermore, we also conclude that GABAergic mechanisms may contribute to the antinociceptive effect of 2'-Cl-6MF. The molecular docking studies also confirm the involvement of the BDZs site of GABA-A receptors. It was observed that Ile230 of α2 stabilize the chlorophenyl ring of 2'-Cl-6MF through hydrophobic interactions, which is replaced by Val203 in α1 subunit. However, the smaller side chain of Val203 does not provide hydrophobic interaction to the compound due to high conformational flexibility of α1 subunit.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and dose-limiting toxicity to widely used chemotherapeutics. Although the exact molecular mechanism of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy remains elusive, there is consensus that it is caused by damage to the peripheral nervous system leading to sensory symptoms. Recently developed methodologies have provided evidence of expression of drug transporters in the peripheral nervous system. In this literature review, we explore the role for drug transporters in CIPN. First, we assessed the transport of chemotherapeutics that cause CIPN (taxanes, platins, vincristine, bortezomib, epothilones, and thalidomide). Second, we cross-referenced the transporters implicated in genetic or functional studies with CIPN with their expression in the peripheral nervous system. Several drug transporters are involved in the transport of chemotherapeutics that cause peripheral neuropathy and particularly efflux transporters, such as ABCB1 and ABCC1, are expressed in the peripheral nervous system. Previous literature has linked genetic variants in efflux transporters to higher risk of peripheral neuropathy with the taxanes paclitaxel and docetaxel and the vinca alkaloid vincristine. We propose that this might be due to accumulation of the chemotherapeutics in the peripheral nervous system due to reduced neuronal efflux capacity. Thus, concomitant administration of efflux transporter inhibitors may lead to higher risk of adverse events of drugs that cause CIPN. This might prove valuable in drug development where screening new drugs for neurotoxicity might also require drug transporter consideration. There are ongoing efforts targeting drug transporters in the peripheral nervous system to reduce intraneuronal concentrations of chemotherapeutics that cause CIPN, which might ultimately protect against this dose-limiting adverse event.

Abstract
Failure to recognize important features of a drug's pharmacokinetic characteristics is a key cause of inappropriate dose and schedule selection, and can lead to reduced efficacy and increased rate of adverse drug reactions requiring medical intervention. As oral chemotherapeutic agents, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are particularly prone to cause drug-drug interactions as many drugs in this class are known or suspected to potently inhibit the hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. In this article, we provide a comprehensive overview of the published literature and publicly-available regulatory documents in this rapidly emerging field. Our findings indicate that, while many TKIs can potentially inhibit the function of OATP1B1 and/or OATP1B3 and cause clinically-relevant drug-drug interactions, there are many inconsistencies between regulatory documents and the published literature. Potential explanations for these discrepant observations are provided in order to assist prescribing clinicians in designing safe and effective polypharmacy regimens, and to provide researchers with insights into refining experimental strategies to further predict and define the translational significance of TKI-mediated drug-drug interactions.

Abstract
Solute carrier transporters comprise a large family of uptake transporters involved in the transmembrane transport of a wide array of endogenous substrates such as hormones, nutrients, and metabolites as well as of clinically important drugs. Several cancer therapeutics, ranging from chemotherapeutics such as topoisomerase inhibitors, DNA-intercalating drugs, and microtubule binders to targeted therapeutics such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors are substrates of solute carrier (SLC) transporters. Given that SLC transporters are expressed both in organs pivotal to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination and in tumors, these transporters constitute determinants of cellular drug accumulation influencing intracellular drug concentration required for efficacy of the cancer treatment in tumor cells. In this review, we explore the current understanding of members of three SLC families, namely SLC21 (organic anion transporting polypeptides, OATPs), SLC22A (organic cation transporters, OCTs; organic cation/carnitine transporters, OCTNs; and organic anion transporters OATs), and SLC15A (peptide transporters, PEPTs) in the etiology of cancer, in transport of chemotherapeutic drugs, and their influence on efficacy or toxicity of pharmacotherapy. We further explore the idea to exploit the function of SLC transporters to enhance cancer cell accumulation of chemotherapeutics, which would be expected to reduce toxic side effects in healthy tissue and to improve efficacy.

Abstract
Currently, chemotherapy is one of the mainstays of oncologic therapies. But the efficacy of chemotherapy is often limited by drug resistance and severe side effects. Consequently, it is becoming increasingly important to investigate the underlying mechanism and overcome the problem of anticancer chemotherapy resistance. The solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B3 (SLCO1B3), a functional transporter normally expressed in the liver, transports a variety of endogenous and exogenous compounds, including hormones and their conjugates as well as some anticancer drugs. The extrahepatic expression of SLCO1B3 has been detected in different cancer cell lines and cancer tissues. Recently, accumulating data indicates that the abnormal expression and function of SLCO1B3 are involved in resistance to anticancer drugs, such as taxanes, camptothecin and its analogs, SN-38, and Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in breast, prostate, lung, hepatic, and colorectal cancer, respectively. Thus, more investigations have been implemented to identify the potential SLCO1B3-related mechanisms of cancer drug resistance. In this review, we focus on the emerging roles of SLCO1B3 protein in the development of cancer chemotherapy resistance and briefly discuss the mechanisms of resistance. Elucidating the function of SLCO1B3 in chemoresistance may bring out novel therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Members of the solute carrier (SLC) family of transporters are responsible for the cellular influx of a broad range of endogenous compounds and xenobiotics. These proteins are highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract and eliminating organs such as the liver and kidney, and are considered to be of particular importance in governing drug absorption and elimination. Many of the same transporters are also expressed in a wide variety of organs targeted by clinically important anticancer drugs, directly affect cellular sensitivity to these agents, and indirectly influence treatment-related side effects. Furthermore, targeted intervention strategies involving the use of transport inhibitors have been recently developed, and have provided promising lead candidates for combinatorial therapies associated with decreased toxicity. Gaining a better understanding of the complex interplay between transporter-mediated on-target and off-target drug disposition will help guide the further development of these novel treatment strategies to prevent drug accumulation in toxicity-associated organs, and improve the safety of currently available treatment modalities. In this report, we provide an update on this rapidly emerging field with particular emphasis on anticancer drugs belonging to the classes of taxanes, platinum derivatives, nucleoside analogs, and anthracyclines.

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

Abstract
Membrane transporters play an important role in the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs. The cellular accumulation of many drugs is the result of the net function of efflux and influx transporters. Efflux transporters such as P-glycoprotein/ABCB1 have been shown to confer multidrug resistance in cancer. Although expression of uptake transporters has been confirmed in cancer cells, their role in chemotherapy response has not been systematically investigated. In the present study we have adapted a fluorescence-based cytotoxic assay to characterize the influence of key drug-transporters on the toxicity of approved anticancer drugs. Co-cultures of fluorescently labeled parental and transporter-expressing cells (expressing ABCB1, ABCG2 or OATP2B1) were screened against 101 FDA-approved anticancer drugs, using a novel, automated, triple fluorescence-based cytotoxicity assay. By measuring the survival of parental and transporter-expressing cells in co-cultures, we identify those FDA-approved anticancer drugs, whose toxicity is influenced by ABCB1, ABCG2 or OATP2B1. In addition to confirming known substrates of ABCB1 and ABCG2, the fluorescence-based cytotoxicity assays identified anticancer agents whose toxicity was increased in OATP2B1 expressing cells. Interaction of these compounds with OATP2B1 was verified in dedicated transport assays using cell-impermeant fluorescent substrates. Understanding drug-transporter interactions is needed to increase the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents. Our results highlight the potential of the fluorescence-based HT screening system for identifying transporter substrates, opening the way for the design of therapeutic approaches based on the inhibition or even the exploitation of transporters in cancer cells.

Mechanisms of Anticancer Drug Resistance in Hepatoblastoma. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11030407.

Abstract
The most frequent liver tumor in children is hepatoblastoma (HB), which derives from embryonic parenchymal liver cells or hepatoblasts. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which rarely affects young people, causes one fourth of deaths due to cancer in adults. In contrast, HB usually has better prognosis, but this is still poor in 20% of cases. Although more responsive to chemotherapy than HCC, the failure of pharmacological treatment used before and/or after surgical resection is an important limitation in the management of patients with HB. To advance in the implementation of personalized medicine it is important to select the best combination among available anti-HB drugs, such as platinum derivatives, anthracyclines, etoposide, tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, Vinca alkaloids, 5-fluorouracil, monoclonal antibodies, irinotecan and nitrogen mustards. This requires predicting the sensitivity to these drugs of each tumor at each time because, it should be kept in mind, that cancer chemoresistance is a dynamic process of Darwinian nature. For this goal it is necessary to improve our understanding of the mechanisms of chemoresistance involved in the refractoriness of HB against the pharmacological challenge and how they evolve during treatment. In this review we have summarized the current knowledge on the multifactorial and complex factors responsible for the lack of response of HB to chemotherapy.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin is important for the clinical treatment of colorectal cancer and other gastrointestinal malignancies, but tumour resistance is limiting. Several oxaliplatin transporters were previously identified but their relative contributions to determining oxaliplatin tumour responses and gastrointestinal tumour cell sensitivity to oxaliplatin remains unclear. We studied clinical associations between tumour expression of oxaliplatin transporter candidate genes and patient response to oxaliplatin, then experimentally verified associations found with MRP2 in models of human gastrointestinal cancer. Among 18 oxaliplatin transporter candidate genes, MRP2 was the only one to be differentially expressed in the tumours of colorectal cancer patients who did or did not respond to FOLFOX chemotherapy. Over-expression of MRP2 (endogenously in HepG2 and PANC-1 cells, or induced by stable transfection of HEK293 cells) decreased oxaliplatin accumulation and cytotoxicity but those deficits were reversed by inhibition of MRP2 with myricetin or siRNA knockdown. Mice bearing subcutaneous HepG2 tumour xenografts were sensitised to oxaliplatin antitumour activity by concurrent myricetin treatment with little or no increase in toxicity. In conclusion, MRP2 limits oxaliplatin accumulation and response in human gastrointestinal cancer. Screening tumour MRP2 expression levels, to select patients for treatment with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy alone or in combination with a MRP2 inhibitor, could improve treatment outcomes.

Abstract
The organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are a superfamily of drug transporters involved in the uptake and disposition of a wide array of structurally divergent endogenous and exogenous substrates, including steroid hormones, bile acids, and commonly used drugs, such as anti-infectives, antihypertensives, and cholesterol lowering agents. In the past decade, OATPs, primarily OATP1A2, OATP1B1, and OATP1B3, have emerged as potential mediators of chemotherapy disposition, including drugs such as methotrexate, doxorubicin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, irinotecan and its important metabolite 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin, and certain tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Furthermore, OATP family members are polymorphic and numerous studies have shown OATP variants to have differential uptake, disposition, and/or pharmacokinetics of numerous drug substrates with important implications for interindividual differences in efficacy and toxicity. Additionally, certain OATPs have been found to be overexpressed in a variety of human solid tumors, including breast, liver, colon, pancreatic, and ovarian cancers, suggesting potential roles for OATPs in tumor development and progression and as novel targets for cancer therapy. This review focuses on the emerging roles for selected OATPs in cancer pharmacology, including preclinical and clinical studies suggesting roles in chemotherapy disposition, the pharmacogenetics of OATPs in cancer therapy, and OATP overexpression in various tumor tissues with implications for OATPs as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Membrane transport protein organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B3 mediates the cellular uptake of many clinically important drugs including anti-cancer drugs (e.g., paclitaxel). In addition to the well-recognized hepatic expression and function of OATP1B3 [herein named liver-type (Lt) OATP1B3], OATP1B3 also expresses in cancers and has been postulated to play a role in cancer therapy, presumably by facilitating the influx of anti-cancer drugs. Recently, a cancer type (Ct)-OATP1B3 mRNA variant was identified in colon and lung cancer tissues, which encodes truncated Ct-OATP1B3 with negligible transport activity. Other than in colon and lung cancers, reports on mRNA expression of OATP1B3 in other cancers cannot distinguish between the Ltand Ct-OATP1B3. OBJECTIVE The current studies were designed to characterize the expression of Lt- and Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA in ovarian, prostate, bladder, breast, and lung tissues. METHODS Lt- and Ct-OATP1B3 isoform-specific PCR primers were utilized to determine the mRNA levels of Lt- and Ct-OATP1B3, respectively. An expression vector expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Lt-OATP1B3 was transiently transfected into the ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3. Confocal live-cell microscopy was utilized to determine the localization of GFP-Lt-OATP1B3 in SKOV3 cells. RESULTS For the first time, Lt-OATP1B3 mRNA was detected in ovarian, prostate, bladder and breast cancers. The localization of GFP-Lt-OATP1B3 on the plasma membrane of SKOV3 cells after transient transfection was readily detected by confocal microscopy. CONCLUSION Our findings are supportive of the potential role of Lt-OATP1B3 in cancer cells.

Abstract
![]()
Hepatocellular
organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP1B1,
OATP1B3, and OATP2B1) are important for proper liver function and
the regulation of the drug elimination process. Understanding their
roles in different conditions of liver toxicity and cancer requires
an in-depth investigation of hepatic OATP–ligand interactions
and selectivity. However, such studies are impeded by the lack of
crystal structures, the promiscuous nature of these transporters,
and the limited availability of reliable bioactivity data, which are
spread over different data sources in the open domain. To this end,
we integrated ligand bioactivity data for hepatic OATPs from five
open data sources (ChEMBL, the UCSF–FDA TransPortal database,
DrugBank, Metrabase, and IUPHAR) in a semiautomatic KNIME workflow.
Highly curated data sets were analyzed with respect to enriched scaffolds,
and their activity profiles and interesting scaffold series providing
indication for selective, dual-, or pan-inhibitory activity toward
hepatic OATPs could be extracted. In addition, a sequential binary
modeling approach revealed common and distinctive ligand features
for inhibitory activity toward the individual transporters. The workflows
designed for integrating data from open sources, data curation, and
subsequent substructure analyses are freely available and fully adaptable.
The new data sets for inhibitors and substrates of hepatic OATPs as
well as the insights provided by the feature and substructure analyses
will guide future structure-based studies on hepatic OATP–ligand
interactions and selectivity.

Abstract
Paclitaxel is among the most widely used anticancer drugs and is known to cause a dose-limiting peripheral neurotoxicity, the initiating mechanisms of which remain unknown. Here, we identified the murine solute carrier organic anion-transporting polypeptide B2 (OATP1B2) as a mediator of paclitaxel-induced neurotoxicity. Additionally, using established tests to assess acute and chronic paclitaxel-induced neurotoxicity, we found that genetic or pharmacologic knockout of OATP1B2 protected mice from mechanically induced allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia, and changes in digital maximal action potential amplitudes. The function of this transport system was inhibited by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor nilotinib through a noncompetitive mechanism, without compromising the anticancer properties of paclitaxel. Collectively, our findings reveal a pathway that explains the fundamental basis of paclitaxel-induced neurotoxicity, with potential implications for its therapeutic management.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy among the gynecological cancers, with a 5-year survival rate, mainly due to being diagnosed at advanced stages, recurrence and resistance to the current chemotherapeutic agents. Drug resistance is a complex phenomenon and the number of known involved genes and cross-talks between signaling pathways in this process is growing rapidly. Thus, discovering and understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in chemo-resistance are crucial for management of treatment and identifying novel and effective drug targets as well as drug discovery to improve therapeutic outcomes. In this review, the major and recently identified molecular mechanisms of drug resistance in ovarian cancer from relevant literature have been investigated. In the final section of the paper, new approaches for studying detailed mechanisms of chemo-resistance have been briefly discussed.

Abstract
The anti-arthritic drug auranofin exerts also potent antitumour activity in in vitro and in vivo models, whose mechanisms are not yet well defined. From an auranofin-sensitive human ovarian cancer cell line A2780, a highly resistant (>20-fold) subline (A2780/AF-R) was developed and characterized. Marked reduction of gold accumulation occurred in auranofin-resistant A2780 cells. Also, moderately higher thioredoxin reductase activity in A2780/AF-R cells was observed while no changes in intracellular glutathione content occurred. Resistance to auranofin was associated with a low level of cross-resistance to some investigational gold compounds as well as to oxaliplatin and other anticancer drugs with different mode of action (i.e. melphalan, vinblastine, doxorubicin, etoposide, and paclitaxel). Reduced gold accumulation was associated to substantial gene expression changes in various influx (e.g. SLC22A1, SLC47A1, SLCO1B1) and efflux (e.g. ABCB1, ABCC2, ABCC3) transporters. The expression levels of selected proteins (i.e. SLC22A1, SLC47A1, P-gp) were also changed accordingly. These data provide evidence that multiple drug transporters may act as mediators of transport of auranofin and other gold compounds in cancer cells. Further investigation into the molecular mechanisms mediating transport of auranofin and new gold complexes in view of their potential clinical application in the treatment of cancer is warranted.

Abstract
Endometrial and ovarian cancers predominately affect women after menopause, and are more frequently observed in developed countries. These are considered to be hormone-dependent cancers, as steroid hormones, and estrogens in particular, have roles in their onset and progression. After the production of estrogens in the ovary has ceased, estrogen synthesis occurs in peripheral tissues. This depends on the cellular uptake of estrone-sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, as the most important steroid precursors in the plasma of postmenopausal women. The uptake through transporter proteins, such as those of the organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) and organic anion-transporter (OAT) families, is followed by the synthesis and action of estradiol E2. Here, we provide an overview of the current understanding of this intracrine action of steroid hormones, which depends on the availability of the steroid precursors and transmembrane transporters for precursor uptake, along with the enzymes for the synthesis of E2. The data is also provided relating to the selected transmembrane transporters from the OATP, OAT, SLC51, and ABC-transporter families, and the enzymes involved in the E2-generating pathways in cancers of the endometrium and ovary. Finally, we discuss these transporters and enzymes as potential drug targets.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The in vivo fate and effectiveness of a drug depends highly on its absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADME-Tox). Organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are membrane proteins involved in the cellular uptake of various organic compounds, including clinically used drugs. Since OATPs are significant players in drug absorption and distribution, modulation of OATP function via pharmacotherapy with OATP substrates/inhibitors, or modulation of their expression, affects drug pharmacokinetics. Given their cancer-specific expression, OATPs may also be considered anticancer drug targets. Areas covered: We describe the human OATP family, discussing clinically relevant consequences of altered OATP function. We offer a critical analysis of published data on the role of OATPs in ADME and in drug-drug interactions, especially focusing on OATP1A2, 1B1, 1B3 and 2B1. Expert opinion: Four members of the OATP family, 1A2, 1B1, 1B3 and 2B1, have been characterized in detail. As biochemical and pharmacological knowledge on the other OATPs is lacking, it seems timely to direct research efforts towards developing the experimental framework needed to investigate the transport mechanism and substrate specificity of the poorly described OATPs. In addition, elucidating the role of OATPs in tumor development and therapy response are critical avenues for further research.

Abstract
It is now widely accepted that organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs), especially members of the OATP1A/1B family, can have a major impact on the disposition and elimination of a variety of endogenous molecules and drugs. Owing to their prominent expression in the sinusoidal plasma membrane of hepatocytes, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 play key roles in the hepatic uptake and plasma clearance of a multitude of structurally diverse anti-cancer and other drugs. Here, we present a thorough assessment of the currently available OATP1A and OATP1B knockout and transgenic mouse models as key tools to study OATP functions in vivo. We discuss recent studies using these models demonstrating the importance of OATPs, primarily in the plasma and hepatic clearance of anticancer drugs such as taxanes, irinotecan/SN-38, methotrexate, doxorubicin, and platinum compounds. We further discuss recent work on OATP-mediated drug-drug interactions in these mouse models, as well as on the role of OATP1A/1B proteins in the phenomenon of hepatocyte hopping, an efficient and flexible way of liver detoxification for both endogenous and exogenous substrates. Interestingly, glucuronide conjugates of both the heme breakdown product bilirubin and the protein tyrosine kinase-targeted anticancer drug sorafenib are strongly affected by this process. The clinical relevance of variation in OATP1A/1B activity in patients has been previously revealed by the effects of polymorphic variants and drug-drug interactions on drug toxicity. The development of in vivo tools to study OATP1A/1B functions has greatly advanced our mechanistic understanding of their functional role in drug pharmacokinetics, and their implications for therapeutic efficacy and toxic side effects of anticancer and other drug treatments.

Abstract
Therapeutic benefits offered by common chemotherapy drugs, such as oxaliplatin, are limited due to the development of resistance, which contributes to treatment failure and metastasis. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key event contributing to the development of resistance to chemotherapeutics. Although the relationship between oxaliplatin and chemotherapy resistance has been described for decades, the molecular mechanisms have remained elusive. The aim of the present study was to investigate the underlying mechanisms of oxaliplatin-mediated metastasis. Here, we identify reactive oxygen species (ROS) as mediators that promote the oxaliplatin-induced EMT. Following oxaliplatin treatment, the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of most peroxiredoxin family genes, except for peroxiredoxin 1 (prdx1) gene, were constant or even decreased, resulting in ROS abundance. And the antioxidant guardian Nrf2 was unconspicuously raised both transcriptionally and translationally with oxaliplatin treatment as compared to those induced by topotecan treatment, which has been proved with no induced metastasis. In addition, the study evaluated high levels of ROS leading to EMT via activation of the known oncogenes Akt and Snail. Using the Akt inhibitor LY294002 or knocking down Snail expression via RNA interference (RNAi) reversed the effects of oxaliplatin on the EMT and metastasis. Our studies establish a role for the ROS-Akt-Snail axis as a mechanism by which chemotherapeutics induce EMT and cancer metastasis.

Abstract
The recent symposium on "Target-Site" Drug Metabolism and Transport that was sponsored by the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics at the 2014 Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego is summarized in this report. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that drug-metabolizing enzyme and transporter activity at the site of therapeutic action can affect the efficacy, safety, and metabolic properties of a given drug, with potential outcomes including altered dosing regimens, stricter exclusion criteria, or even the failure of a new chemical entity in clinical trials. Drug metabolism within the brain, for example, can contribute to metabolic activation of therapeutic drugs such as codeine as well as the elimination of potential neurotoxins in the brain. Similarly, the activity of oxidative and conjugative drug-metabolizing enzymes in the lung can have an effect on the efficacy of compounds such as resveratrol. In addition to metabolism, the active transport of compounds into or away from the site of action can also influence the outcome of a given therapeutic regimen or disease progression. For example, organic anion transporter 3 is involved in the initiation of pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and may have a role in how uremic toxins enter pancreatic β-cells and ultimately contribute to the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes. Finally, it is likely that a combination of target-specific metabolism and cellular internalization may have a significant role in determining the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of antibody-drug conjugates, a finding which has resulted in the development of a host of new analytical methods that are now used for characterizing the metabolism and disposition of antibody-drug conjugates. Taken together, the research summarized herein can provide for an increased understanding of potential barriers to drug efficacy and allow for a more rational approach for developing safe and effective therapeutics.

Abstract
Variants in SLCO1B3 transporter are linked to disposition and uptake of drugs and show high degree of heterogeneity between populations. A total of 467 Roma and 448 Hungarian subjects were genotyped for SLCO1B3 c.334T>G and c.1683-5676A>G variant alleles by PCR-RFLP assay and direct sequencing. We found significant differences in the frequencies of homozygous variant genotypes of SLCO1B3 334GG (41.54% vs. 8.04%, p<0.001) and 1683-5676GG (0.43% vs. 2.01%, p=0.028) between Romas and Hungarians. A significantly increased prevalence was found in SLCO1B3 1683-5676G allele frequency in Hungarians compared to the Roma population (15.07% vs. 3.43%, p≤0.001). The frequency of SLCO1B3 334G allele was significantly increased in Roma population compared to Hungarians (70.56% vs. 52.23%, p=0.001). The LD values between the examined SNPs were 80 and 90 in Roma and in Hungarian samples, respectively. Our results highlight notable pharmacogenetic differences between Roma and Hungarian populations, which may have therapeutic implications.

Abstract
Taxane antineoplastic agents are extensively taken up into hepatocytes by OATP1B-type transporters before metabolism and excretion. Because the biodistributional properties imposed upon these agents by different solubilizers drive clinically important pharmacodynamic endpoints, we tested the hypothesis that the in vitro and in vivo interaction of taxanes with OATP1B transporters is affected by the choice of drug delivery system. Transport of paclitaxel, docetaxel, and cabazitaxel was studied in vitro using various cell lines transfected with OATP1B1, OATP1B3, or the rodent equivalent OATP1B2. Pharmacokinetic studies were done in wild-type and OATP1B2-knockout mice in the presence or absence of polysorbate 80 (PS80) or Kolliphor EL (formerly Cremophor EL; CrEL). Paclitaxel and docetaxel, but not cabazitaxel, were transported substrates of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP1B2, and these in vitro transport processes were strongly reduced in the presence of clinically relevant concentrations of PS80 and CrEL. When paclitaxel was administered without any solubilizers, deficiency of OATP1B2 in mice was associated with a significantly decreased systemic clearance because of a liver distribution defect (P=0.000484). However, this genotype dependence of paclitaxel clearance was masked in the presence of PS80 or CrEL because of significant inhibition of OATP1B2-mediated hepatocellular uptake of the drug (P<0.05). Our findings confirm the importance of OATP1B-type transporters in the hepatic elimination of taxanes and indicate that this process can be inhibited by PS80 and CrEL. These results suggest that the likelihood of drug-drug interactions mediated by these transporters is strongly dependent on the selected taxane solubilizer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral neuropathy is the major dose-limiting side effect of cisplatin and oxaliplatin, and there are currently no effective treatments available. The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacological mechanisms underlying chemotherapy-induced neuropathy in novel animal models based on intraplantar administration of cisplatin and oxaliplatin and to systematically evaluate the analgesic efficacy of a range of therapeutics. METHODS Neuropathy was induced by a single intraplantar injection of cisplatin or oxaliplatin in C57BL/6J mice and assessed by quantification of mechanical and thermal allodynia. The pharmacological basis of cisplatin-induced neuropathy was characterized using a range of selective pharmacological inhibitors. The analgesic effects of phenytoin, amitriptyline, oxcarbazepine, mexiletine, topiramate, retigabine, gabapentin, fentanyl, and Ca(2+/)Mg(2+) were assessed 24 hours after induction of neuropathy. RESULTS Intraplantar administration of cisplatin led to the development of mechanical allodynia, mediated through Nav1.6-expressing sensory neurons. Unlike intraplantar injection of oxaliplatin, cold allodynia was not observed with cisplatin, consistent with clinical observations. Surprisingly, only fentanyl was effective at alleviating cisplatin-induced mechanical allodynia despite a lack of efficacy in oxaliplatin-induced cold allodynia. Conversely, lamotrigine, phenytoin, retigabine, and gabapentin were effective at reversing oxaliplatin-induced cold allodynia but had no effect on cisplatin-induced mechanical allodynia. Oxcarbazepine, amitriptyline, mexiletine, and topiramate lacked efficacy in both models of acute chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. CONCLUSION This study established a novel animal model of cisplatin-induced mechanical allodynia consistent with the A-fiber neuropathy seen clinically. Systematic assessment of a range of therapeutics identified several candidates that warrant further clinical investigation.

Abstract
Members of the solute carrier (SLC) family of transporters are responsible for the cellular influx of a broad range of endogenous compounds and xenobiotics in multiple tissues. Many of these transporters are highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and kidney and are considered to be of particular importance in governing drug absorption, elimination, and cellular sensitivity of specific organs to a wide variety of oncology drugs. Although the majority of studies on the interaction of oncology drugs with SLC have been restricted to the use of exploratory in vitro model systems, emerging evidence suggests that several SLCs, including OCT2 and OATP1B1, contribute to clinically important phenotypes associated with those agents. Recent literature has indicated that modulation of SLC activity may result in drug-drug interactions, and genetic polymorphisms in SLC genes have been described that can affect the handling of substrates. Alteration of SLC function by either of these mechanisms has been demonstrated to contribute to interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics and toxicity associated with several oncology drugs. In this report, we provide an update on this rapidly emerging field.

Abstract
Hydroxyurea is currently the only FDA-approved drug that ameliorates the pathophysiology of sickle cell anemia. Unfortunately, substantial interpatient variability in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of hydroxyurea may result in variation of the drug's efficacy. However, little is known about mechanisms that modulate hydroxyurea PK. Recent in vitro studies identifying hydroxyurea as a substrate for organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP1B) transporters prompted the current investigation assessing the role of OATP1B transporters in modulating hydroxyurea PK. Using wild-type and Oatp1b knockout (Oatp1b(-/-)) mice, hydroxyurea PK was analyzed in vivo by measuring [(14)C]hydroxyurea distribution in plasma, kidney, liver, urine, or the exhaled (14)CO2 metabolite. Plasma levels were significantly reduced by 20% in Oatp1b(-/-) mice compared with wild-type (area under the curve of 38.64 or 48.45 μg·h(-1)·ml(-1), respectively) after oral administration, whereas no difference was observed between groups following intravenous administration. Accumulation in the kidney was significantly decreased by twofold in Oatp1b(-/-) mice (356.9 vs. 748.1 pmol/g), which correlated with a significant decrease in urinary excretion. Hydroxyurea accumulation in the liver was also decreased (136.6 vs. 107.3 pmol/g in wild-type or Oatp1b(-/-) mice, respectively) correlating with a decrease in exhaled (14)CO2. These findings illustrate that deficiency of Oatp1b transporters alters the absorption, distribution, and elimination of hydroxyurea thus providing the first in vivo evidence that cell membrane transporters may play a significant role in modulating hydroxyurea PK. Future studies to investigate other transporters and their role in hydroxyurea disposition are warranted for understanding the sources of variation in hydroxyurea's PK.

Conjunctive therapy of cisplatin with the OCT2 inhibitor cimetidine: influence on antitumor efficacy and systemic clearance. Clin Pharmacol Ther 2013; 94:585-92. [PMID: 23863876 PMCID: PMC3832209 DOI: 10.1038/clpt.2013.145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2013] [Accepted: 07/09/2013] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
The organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) regulates uptake of cisplatin in proximal tubules, and inhibition of OCT2 protects against severe cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. However, it remains uncertain whether potent OCT2 inhibitors, such as cimetidine, can influence the antitumor properties and/or disposition of cisplatin. Using an array of preclinical assays, we found that cimetidine had no effect on the uptake and cytotoxicity of cisplatin in ovarian cancer cells with high OCT2 mRNA levels (IGROV-1 cells). Moreover, the antitumor efficacy of cisplatin in mice bearing luciferase-tagged IGROV-1 xenografts was unaffected by cimetidine (P = 0.39). Data obtained in 18 patients receiving cisplatin (100 mg/m(2)) in a randomized crossover fashion with or without cimetidine (800 mg × 2) revealed that cimetidine did not alter exposure to unbound cisplatin, a marker of antitumor efficacy (4.37 vs. 4.38 µg·h/ml; P = 0.86). These results support the future clinical exploration of OCT2 inhibitors as specific modifiers of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
