1. P-glycoprotein, a 170-180 kDa membrane glycoprotein that mediates multidrug resistance, hydrolyses ATP to efflux a broad spectrum of hydrophobic agents. In this study, we analysed the effects of three MDR reversing agents, verapamil, cyclosporin A and [3'-keto-Bmt1]-[Val2]-cyclosporin (PSC 833), on the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of human P-glycoprotein. 2. P-glycoprotein was immunoprecipitated with a monoclonal antibody (MRK-16) and the P-glycoprotein-MRK-16-Protein A-Sepharose complexes obtained were subjected to a coupled enzyme ATPase assay. 3. While verapamil activated the ATPase, the cyclosporin derivatives inhibited both the substrate-stimulated and the basal P-glycoprotein ATPase. No significant difference was observed between PSC 833 and cyclosporin A on the inhibition of basal P-glycoprotein ATPase activity. PSC 833 was more potent than cyclosporin A for the substrate-stimulated activity. 4. Kinetic analysis indicated a competitive inhibition of verapamil-stimulated ATPase by PSC 833. 5. The binding of 8-azido-[alpha-32P]-ATP to P-glycoprotein was not altered by the cyclosporin derivatives, verapamil, vinblastine and doxorubicin, suggesting that the modulation by these agents of P-glycoprotein ATPase cannot be attributed to an effect on ATP binding to P-glycoprotein. 6. The interaction of the cyclosporin derivatives with ATPase of P-glycoprotein might present an alternative and/or additional mechanism of action for the modulation of P-glycoprotein function.

P-Glycoprotein, a 170-180 kDa membrane glycoprotein that mediates multidrug resistance, hydrolyses ATP to efflux a broad spectrum of hydrophobic agents. To observe the interaction of a P-gp reversal agent with P-gp ATPase activity should provide further insights into the mechanisms of P-gp modulator. In this study, we analysed the effect of CJZ3, a lomerizine derivative, on the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of human P-glycoprotein. The results showed that the basal P-gp ATPase activity was increased by CJZ3 with half-maximal activity concentration (Km) of 6.8 +/- 1.5 microM, CJZ3 may interact with P-gp with a higher affinity and exhibit a more potent effect than verapamil (Ver). Kinetic analysis indicated a noncompetitive inhibition of Ver-stimulated P-gp ATPase activity and a competitive inhibition of CJX2-stimulated P-gp ATPase activity by CJZ3, moreover, the effect of CsA on CJZ3-stimulated and Ver-stimulated P-gp ATPase activity showed a non-competitive and a competitive inhibition respectively. CJZ3 and CJX2 can bind P-gp either on overlapping sites or distinct but interacting sites, while CJZ3 and Ver as well as CsA can bind P-gp on separated sites in K562/DOX cells.
