The multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) subfamily transporters associated with anticancer drug efflux are attributed to the multidrug-resistance of cancer cells. The genomic organization of human multidrug resistance-associated protein 7 (MRP7) was identified. The human MRP7 gene, consisting of 22 exons and 21 introns, greatly differs from other members of the human MRP subfamily. A splicing variant of human MRP7, MRP7A, expressed in most human tissues, was also characterized. The 1.93-kb promoter region of MRP7 was isolated and shown to support luciferase activity at a level 4- to 5-fold greater than that of the SV40 promoter. Basal MRP7 gene expression was regulated by 2 regions in the 5'-flanking region at -1,780-1,287 bp, and at -611 to -208 bp. In Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, MRP7 promoter activity was increased by 226% by genotoxic 2-acetylaminofluorene and 347% by the histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A. The protein was expressed in the membrane fraction of transfected MDCK cells.

CUDC-907 is a novel, dual-acting small molecule compound designed to simultaneously inhibit the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Treatment with CUDC-907 led to sustained inhibition of HDAC and PI3K activity, inhibition of RAF-MEK-MAPK signaling pathway, and inhibition of cancer cell growth. CUDC-907 is currently under evaluation in phase I clinical trials in patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma, and in patients with advanced solid tumors. However, the risk of developing acquired resistance to CUDC-907 can present a significant therapeutic challenge to clinicians in the future and should be investigated. The overexpression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug transporter ABCB1, ABCC1, or ABCG2 is one of the most common mechanisms of developing multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancers and a major obstacle in chemotherapy. In this study, we reveal that ABCG2 reduces the intracellular accumulation of CUDC-907 and confers significant resistance to CUDC-907, which leads to reduced activity of CUDC-907 to inhibit HDAC and PI3K in human cancer cells. Moreover, although CUDC-907 affects the transport function of ABCG2, it was not potent enough to reverse drug resistance mediated by ABCG2 or affect the expression level of ABCG2 in human cancer cells. Taken together, our findings indicate that ABCG2-mediated CUDC-907 resistance can have serious clinical implications and should be further investigated. More importantly, we demonstrate that the activity of CUDC-907 in ABCG2-overexpressing cancer cells can be restored by inhibiting the function of ABCG2, which provides support for the rationale of combining CUDC-907 with modulators of ABCG2 to improve the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of CUDC-907 in future treatment trials.
