Our previous studies have shown that the glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) can operate in synergy with the efflux transporter multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) to confer resistance to the cyto- and genotoxicities of some anticancer drugs and carcinogens. The current study was designed to determine whether the alternative efflux transporter, MRP2 (ABCC2), can also potentiate GST-mediated detoxifications in HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells, which express high-level MRP2 but not MRP1, were stably transduced with GST expression vectors under tetracycline-repressible transcriptional control. MRP2 was able to support GSTA1-1-mediated resistance to chlorambucil (CHB) cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells. Resistance was GST isozyme-specific in that GSTP1a-1a and GSTM1a-1a failed to confer protection from CHB toxicity. Moreover, inhibition of MRP2 with sulfinpyrazone completely reversed GSTA1-1-associated resistance, indicating that MRP2-efflux function is required to potentiate GSTA1-1-mediated resistance. Relative transport by MRP1 versus MRP2 of monoglutathionyl-CHB (CHB-SG) was examined using inside-out plasma membrane vesicles derived from MCF7 cells transduced with MRP1 or MRP2 expression vectors. Both MRP1 and MRP2 transported CHB-SG efficiently, at the levels of protein expressed, with similar Vmax and with Km of 0.39 and 10 microM, respectively. We conclude that detoxification of CHB by GSTA1-1 requires the removal of the glutathione conjugate formed and that either MRP1 or MRP2 can serve this efflux function. These findings have implications for the role of MRP2 in detoxification of alkylating agents in the apical epithelium of liver and kidney where it is highly expressed as well as the role of MRP2 in the emergence of alkylating drug resistance in cancer cells.

Phloridzin, a glucoside of the flavonoid-like polyphenol phloretin, has long been known to be a specific nontransportable inhibitor of the sodium-dependent glucose transporter SGLT1. The objective of this study was to determine whether efflux by multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) transporters might have masked the absorption by SGLT1 in previous studies. Various cells used as transport models were incubated with phloridzin (50 microM) in the absence and presence of 50 microM 3-[[3-[2-(7-chloroquinolin-2-yl)vinyl]phenyl]-(2-dimethylcarbamoylethylsulfanyl)methylsulfanyl] propionic acid (MK-571), a highly selective MRP1/MRP2 inhibitor, and the cellular uptake of phloridzin was measured by high performance liquid chromatography. The uptake of phloridzin by SGLT1-transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) (G6D3) cells was 1.7-fold higher than that by parent CHO cells (p < 0.01). In the presence of MK-571, the uptake of phloridzin by CHO cells increased 3.7-fold (p < 0.001). MK-571 caused an 8.0-fold increase in the uptake of phloridzin by G6D3 cells (p < 0.0001). Thus, in the absence of MRP1 efflux, transport of phloridzin by SGLT1 was clearly demonstrated. Similar results were obtained for the glycosides of the flavonoids quercetin, genistein, and diosmetin. A significantly lower accumulation of phloridzin in MRP2-transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells compared with parent MDCK cells demonstrated that phloridzin was a substrate also for MRP2 (p < 0.05). This conclusion was further strengthened when MK-571 increased the uptake by MRP2-MDCK cells as much as 3.6-fold (p < 0.01). These results demonstrate that phloridzin, in contrast to previous notions, is transported by SGLT1. In addition, they demonstrate that this and other flavonoid glycosides unexpectedly are efficiently effluxed by both MRP1 and MRP2.

The active outward translocation of phospholipid analogues from the inner to the outer membrane leaflet of human erythrocytes by the multi-drug resistance protein MRP1 (ABCC1) depends on intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH). Entrapment of ATP and increasing amounts of GSH inside resealed ghosts prepared from erythrocytes resulted in an up to six-fold increase of the translocation rate. Entrapped oxidized glutathione (GSSG) acted inhibitory but produced stimulation after addition of the disulphide-reducing reagent dithioerythritol. Modification of GSH by esterification of the C-terminal carboxylate of Gly, removal of the N-terminal Glu or substitution of the SH group by an anionic S-dicarboxyethyl or sulphonate group abolished stimulation. The effect of S-alkylation of GSH depended on the length of the alkyl group. S-methyl GSH was somewhat more effective than GSH, but maximal stimulation was similar. S-butyl GSH acted poorly stimulatory while S-hexyl GSH was essentially ineffective. Analyses of the kinetic data of translocation revealed K(m) values for GSH and methyl-GSH of respectively 7.4 +/- 2.4 and 4.9 +/- 1.1 mmol l(-1). At high GSH levels and defined constant ATP levels using an ATP-regenerating system, the Km for ATP of the outward translocation was 0.16 +/- 0.02 mmol l(-1). In the same system lacking GSH, the Km for ATP of the inward translocation by the aminophospholipid flippase was 0.53 +/- 0.23 mmol l(-1).

Tumor cells may become resistant to conventional anticancer drugs through the occurrence of transmembrane transporter proteins such as P-glycoprotein (ABCB1), breast cancer resistance protein (ABCG2), or members of the multidrug resistance-associated protein family (MRP1-MRP5; ABCC1-ABCC5). In this report, we studied whether tumor cells that are cytostatic drug resistant because of overexpression of one of the above mentioned proteins are sensitive to a new anticancer agent, interleukin-4 toxin (IL-4 toxin). IL-4 toxin is a fusion protein composed of circularly permuted IL-4 and a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin (PE) [IL-4(38-37)-PE38KDEL]. Ninety-six-h cytotoxicity assays and 10-day clonogenic assays showed that drug-selected multidrug resistant (MDR) tumor cells that overexpress P-glycoprotein or breast cancer resistance proteins are still sensitive to IL-4 toxin. Also, tumor cells transfected with cDNA for MRP2-5 showed no resistance, or marginal resistance, only to the toxin as compared with the parent cells. In contrast, MRP1-overexpressing cells, both drug selected and MRP1 transfected, are clearly resistant to IL-4 toxin with resistance factors of 4.3 to 8.4. MRP1-overexpressing cells were not resistant to PE itself. IL-4 toxin resistance in MRP1-overexpressing cells could be reversed by the MRP1 inhibitors probenecid or MK571 and were not affected by glutathione depletion by DL-buthionine-S,R-sulfoximine. In a transport assay using plasma membrane vesicles prepared from MRP1-overexpressing cells, IL-4 toxin and IL-4, but not PE, inhibited the translocation of the known MRP1 substrate 17beta-estradiol 17-(beta-D-glucuronide) (E(2)17betaG). These data suggest that MRP1-overexpressing cells are resistant to IL-4 toxin because of extrusion of this agent by MRP1. Still, the results of this study demonstrate that IL-4 toxin effectively kills most MDR tumor cells and, therefore, represents a promising anticancer drug.

Multidrug resistance proteins (MRPs) are ATP-dependent export pumps that mediate the export of organic anions. ABCC1 (MRP1), ABCC2 (MRP2) and ABCC3 (MRP3) are all able to facilitate the efflux of anionic conjugates including glutathione (GSH), glucuronide and sulfate conjugates of xenobiotics and endogenous molecules. Earlier studies showed that ABCC4 functions as an ATP-driven export pump for cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, as well as estradiol-17-beta-D-glucuronide. However, it was unclear if other conjugated metabolites can be transported by ABCC4. Hence in this study, a fluorescent substrate, bimane-glutathione (bimane-GS) was used to further examine the transport activity of ABCC4. Using cells stably overexpressing ABCC4, this study shows that ABCC4 can facilitate the efflux of the glutathione conjugate, bimane-glutathione. Bimane-glutathione efflux increased with time and >85% of the conjugate was exported after 15min. This transport was abolished in the presence of 2.5microM carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrasone (CCCP), an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. Inhibition was also observed with known inhibitors of MRP transporters including benzbromarone, verapamil and indomethacin. In addition, 100microM methotrexate, an ABCC4 substrate or 100microM 6-thioguanine (6-TG), a compound whose monophosphate metabolite is an ABCC4 substrate, reduced efflux by >40%. A concentration-dependent inhibition of bimane-glutathione efflux was observed with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) which is metabolized intracellularly to the glutathione conjugate, 2,4-dinitrophenyl-glutathione (DNP-GS). The determination that ABCC4 can mediate the transport of glucuronide and glutathione conjugates indicates that ABCC4 may play a role in the cellular extrusion of Phase II detoxification metabolites.

Multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is an ATP-binding cassette transporter that confers resistance to drugs and mediates the transport of organic anions. MRP1 has a core structure of two membrane spanning domains (MSDs) each followed by a nucleotide binding domain. This core structure is preceded by a third MSD with five transmembrane (TM) helices, whereas MSD2 and MSD3 each contain six TM helices. We investigated the consequences of Ala substitution of 18 Pro residues in both the non-membrane and TM regions of MSD2 and MSD3 on MRP1 expression and organic anion transport function. All MRP1-Pro mutants except P1113A were expressed in human embryonic kidney cells at levels comparable with wild-type MRP1. In addition, five mutants containing substitutions of Pro residues in or proximal to the TM helices of MSD2 (TM6-Pro(343), TM8-Pro(448), TM10-Pro(557), and TM11-Pro(595)) and MSD3 (TM14-Pro(1088)) exhibited significantly reduced transport of five organic anion substrates. In contrast, mutation of Pro(1150) in the cytoplasmic loop (CL7) linking TM15 to TM16 caused a substantial increase in 17beta-estradiol-17-beta-(D-glucuronide) and methotrexate transport, whereas transport of other organic anions was reduced or unchanged. Significant substrate-specific changes in the ATP dependence of transport and binding by the P1150A mutant were also observed. Our findings demonstrate the importance of TM6, TM8, TM10, TM11, and TM14 in MRP1 transport function and suggest that CL7 may play a differential role in coupling the activity of the nucleotide binding domains to the translocation of different substrates across the membrane.

Remarkable advances have been made in cancer chemotherapy by developing new anticancer drugs and pharmacogenomics strategies. However, multidrug resistance in human cancers is the major obstacle to long-term, sustained patient response to chemotherapy. Several ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters cause multidrug resistance in cancer cells by actively extruding the clinically administered chemotherapeutic drugs. P-glycoprotein (ABCB1/MDR1/P-gp) and MRP1 (ABCC1/GS-X pump) have been well characterized in terms of their molecular structure and function. In addition, ABCG2/breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is the most recently identified/ABC transporter, and is also reportedly associated with cellular resistance against chemotherapeutic agents, such as DNA topoisomerase I, II inhibitor. It is important to note that these ABC transporters are expressed not only in cancer cells but also in normal tissues to play a pivotal role in the absorption, distribution, and excretion of endogenous substances as well as xenobiotics. ABC transporters are key factors that can affect the pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs. Recent studies have revealed that many single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reside in these ABC transporter genes. Functional analysis of the genetic polymorphism of ABC transporters would greatly contribute to our understanding of individual differences in the drug response and also to the development of personalized medicine in the near future.

Drug resistance is a major impediment in the treatment of cancer patients receiving single or multiple drug treatment. Efforts to reverse drug resistance of tumor cells have not been successful. In recent years, considerable emphasis has been placed on understanding the underlying mechanisms that confer drug resistance. The expression of the multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1 or ABCC1) in cancer cells has been shown to confer resistance to diverse classes of anti-cancer drugs. MRP1 is a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family whose function, in tumor cells, is to reduce drug accumulation through energized drug efflux. To learn more about the functions of MRP1 in tumor drug resistance, knowledge of the protein binding characteristics and the location of its binding sites are essential. Photoaffinity labeling (PAL) has emerged as a leading technique that can rapidly shed light on a protein's drug binding characteristics and ultimately drug binding domains. Several MRP1-specific photoreactive probes have been developed. PAL of MRP1 was first demonstrated with the quinoline-based drug, IAAQ. Other studies showed that the high affinity endogenous substrate of MRP1, LTC(4), has intrinsic photoreactive properties and binds within both N- and C-terminal domains of MRP1. LTC(4) is conjugated to glutathione (GSH), a property common to several MRP1 substrates. In addition, several unconjugated drugs have been identified that interact with MRP1: [(3)H]VF-13,159, IAAQ, IACI and IAARh123. Mapping studies showed that IACI and IAARh123 bind two sites within transmembrane (TM) regions 10-11 and 16-17 of MRP1. Interestingly, the GSH-dependent PAL of [(125)I]azidoAG-A and [(125)I]LY475776 occurs within, or proximal to TM 16-17. The PAL with several analogs of GSH, IAAGSH and azidophenacyl-[(35)S]GSH found to interact specifically with MRP1 within TM 10-11 and TM 16-17 in addition to binding two cytoplasmic regions in MRP1, L0 and L1. This review focuses on the use of PAL for studying MRP1 interactions with various drugs and cell metabolites. Furthermore, knowledge of MRP1 drug binding domains, as identified by PAL with various photoreactive drug analogs, provides an important first step towards more detailed analyses of MRP1 binding domains.

The human ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporter MRP1 (human multidrug-resistance-associated protein 1; ABCC1) is involved in the cellular extrusion of conjugated metabolites and causes multidrug resistance in tumour cells. The transport of substrate molecules by ABC proteins is energized by ATP hydrolysis, performed by two co-operating ABC units. Orthovanadate (Vi), a non-covalent inhibitor of the ABC ATPases, was found to catalyse a photo-oxidative cleavage of various ATP-binding proteins. In the present study, we have identified three Vi-cleavage sites within MRP1, and found that the cleavage reactions were variably modulated by the presence of nucleotides and by transported substrates. We concluded that Vi cleavage of MRP1 at Site I detects conformational changes due to the binding of MgATP. In contrast, Site II could be identified as part of the substrate-modulated catalytic cycle, probably containing an MRP1.MgADP.Vi transition-state-like complex. Cleavage at Site III was modulated by both the binding and hydrolysis of MgATP, in a biphasic pattern, which was also affected by the presence of transported substrates. We detected two different allosteric effects and found that they control two consecutive steps of the MRP1 ATPase catalytic cycle. Nucleotide binding to the low-affinity site accelerated the formation of the pre-hydrolytic intermediate in the other catalytic centre. Interaction of the transporter with its transported substrates stimulated a later reaction of the hydrolytic cycle, the formation of the post-hydrolytic intermediate, which could be detected in both catalytic sites by the experimental strategy used.

Chemoresistance is a major obstacle for successful treatment of cancer. To identify regions of the genome associated with acquired resistance to therapeutic drugs, we conducted molecular cytogenetic analyses of 23 cancer-cell lines, each resistant to either camptothecin, cisplatin, etoposide (VP-16), Adriamycin, or 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine, although the parental tumor lines were not. Subtractive comparative genomic hybridization studies revealed regions of gain or loss in DNA-copy numbers that were characteristic of drug-resistant cell lines; i.e., differences from their drug-sensitive parental cell lines. Thirteen ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter genes [ABCA3, ABCB1 (MDR1), ABCB6, ABCB8, ABCB10, ABCB11, ABCC1 (MRP1), ABCC4, ABCC9, ABCD3, ABCD4, ABCE1, and ABCF2] were amplified among 19 of the resistant cell lines examined. Three genes encoding antiapoptotic BCL-2 proteins (BCL2L2, MCL1, and BCL2L10) were also amplified and consequently overexpressed in three of the derivative lines. Down-regulation of BCL2L2 with an antisense oligonucleotide sensitized a VP-16 resistant ovarian-cancer cell line (SKOV3/VP) to VP-16. A decrease in copy numbers of genes encoding deoxycytidine kinase, DNA topoisomerase I, and DNA topoisomerase II alpha reduced their expression levels in one cytosine arabinoside-resistant line, two of three camptothecin-resistant lines, and two of five VP-16-resistant cell lines, respectively. Our results indicated that changes in DNA-copy numbers of the genes mentioned can activate or down-regulate them in drug-resistant cell lines, and that such genomic alterations might be implicated in acquired chemoresistance.
