The 190-kDa ATP-binding cassette (ABC) multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) encoded by the MRP1/ABCC1 gene mediates the active cellular efflux of glucuronide, glutathione and sulfate conjugates. It can also confer resistance to a diverse spectrum of chemotherapeutic agents and transport a variety of toxicants. In the present study, we examined 10 MRP1/ABCC1 missense genetic variants [non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] to determine whether or not they affect expression or function of the transporter. Variants 218C>T (Thr73Ile), 257C>T (Ser92Phe), 350C>T (Thr117Met), 689G>A (Arg230Gln), 1898G>A (Arg633Gln), 2168G>A (Arg723Gln), 2965G>A (Ala989Thr), 3140G>C (Cys1047Ser), 3173G>A (Arg1058Gln) and 4535C>T (Ser1512Leu) were recreated using site-directed mutagenesis and transfected into human embryonic kidney cells. Immunoblotting experiments showed that all mutant proteins were expressed at levels comparable to wild-type MRP1. Vesicular transport assays revealed that the Ala989Thr mutation caused a significant decrease in estradiol 17beta-glucuronide transport due to a decrease in apparent affinity (Km) for this organic anion. The transport properties of the other mutants were comparable to wild-type MRP1. When the MRP1/ABCC1 non-synonymous SNPs were evaluated by the SIFT algorithm using subsets of homologs and orthologs of MRP1/ABCC1, Arg230Gln, Val353Met, Arg433Ser, Gly671Val and Arg1058 mutations were predicted to be deleterious, whereas the PolyPhen algorithm predicted Ser92Phe and Gly671Val to be potentially damaging. Thus most predictions of these algorithms were not in accordance with our experimental results. In conclusion, our data suggest that none of the MRP1/ABCC1 variants studied are likely by themselves to have major deleterious effects in healthy individuals, and the SIFT and PolyPhen algorithms appear to be poor predictors of the phenotypic consequences of these MRP1 mutations at least in vitro.

Multidrug resistance in tumor cells may be caused by reduced drug accumulation resulting from expression of one or more proteins belonging to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. In addition to their drug efflux properties, certain ABC proteins such as multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) (ABCC1) mediate the ATP-dependent transport of a broad array of organic anions. The intrinsically photoreactive glutathione-conjugated cysteinyl leukotriene C4 (LTC4) is a high-affinity physiological substrate of MRP1 and is widely regarded as a model compound for evaluating the substrate binding and transport properties of wild-type and mutant forms of the transporter. In the present study, we have optimized high-level expression of recombinant human MRP1 in Pichia pastoris and developed a two-step purification scheme that results in purification of the transporter to >90% homogeneity. Peptide mapping by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/time of flight mass spectrometry of the peptides generated by in-gel protease digestions of purified underglycosylated MRP1 identified 96.7% of the MRP1 sequence with >98% coverage of its 17 transmembrane helices. Subsequent comparisons with mass spectra of MRP1 photolabeled with LTC4 identified six candidate LTC4-modified peptide fragments that are consistent with the conclusion that the intracellular juxtamembrane positions of transmembrane helices 6, 7, 10, 17, and a COOH-proximal portion of the cytoplasmic loop that links the first and second membrane spanning domains are part of the LTC4 binding site of the transporter. Our studies confirm the usefulness of mass spectrometry for analysis of mammalian polytopic membrane proteins and for identification of substrate binding sites of human MRP1.

Based upon several previous reports, no consistent relationship between multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) expression and cellular sensitivity to mitoxantrone (MX) toxicity can be ascertained; thus, the role of MRP1 in MX resistance remains controversial. The present study, using paired parental, MRP1-poor, and transduced MRP1-overexpressing MCF7 cells, unequivocally demonstrates that MRP1 confers resistance to MX cytotoxicity and that resistance is associated with reduced cellular accumulation of MX. This MRP1-associated reduced accumulation of MX was partially reversed by treatment of cells with 50 microM MK571 [3-[[3-[2-(7-chloroquinolin-2-yl)vinyl]phenyl]-(2-dimethylcarbamoylethylsulfanyl)methylsulfanyl] propionic acid]-an MRP inhibitor that increased MX accumulation in MRP1-expressing MCF7 cells but had no effect on MRP-poor MCF7 cells. Moreover, in vitro experiments using inside-out membrane vesicles show that MRP1 supports ATP-dependent, osmotically sensitive uptake of MX. Unlike ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein, mitoxantrone-resistant protein), MRP1-mediated MX transport is dependent upon the presence of glutathione or its S-methyl analog. In addition, MX stimulates transport of [3H]glutathione. Together, these data are consistent with the interpretation that MX efflux by MRP1 involves cotransport of MX and glutathione. The results suggest that MRP1-like the alternative MX transporters ABCG2 and ABCB1 (MDR1, P-glycoprotein)-can significantly influence tumor cell sensitivity to and pharmacological disposition of MX.

Dendritic cells (DC) express the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1; ABCC1). Functionally, both these transporters have been described to be required for efficient DC and T cell migration. In this study, we report that MRP1 activity is also crucial for differentiation of DC. Inhibition of MRP1, but not P-glycoprotein, transporter activity with specific antagonists during in vitro DC differentiation interfered with early DC development. Impaired interstitial and Langerhans DC differentiation was characterized by 1) morphological changes, reflected by dropped side scatter levels in flow cytometric analysis and 2) phenotypic changes illustrated by maintained expression of the monocytic marker CD14, lower expression levels of CD40, CD86, HLA-DR, and a significant decrease in the amount of cells expressing CD1a, CD1c, and Langerin. Defective DC differentiation also resulted in their reduced ability to stimulate allogeneic T cells. We identified the endogenous CD1 ligands sulfatide and monosialoganglioside GM1 as MRP1 substrates, but exogenous addition of these substrates could not restore the defects caused by blocking MRP1 activity during DC differentiation. Although leukotriene C(4) was reported to restore migration of murine Mrp1-deficient DC, the effects of MRP1 inhibition on DC differentiation appeared to be independent of the leukotriene pathway. Though MRP1 transporter activity is important for DC differentiation, the relevant MRP1 substrate, which is required for DC differentiation, remains to be identified. Altogether, MRP1 seems to fulfill an important physiological role in DC development and DC functions.

Many studies have been performed with the aim of developing effective resistance modulators to overcome the multidrug resistance (MDR) of human cancers. Potent MDR modulators are being investigated in clinical trials. Many current studies are focused on dietary herbs due to the fact that these have been used for centuries without producing any harmful side effects. In this study, the effect of tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) on three ABC drug transporter proteins, P-glycoprotein (P-gp or ABCB1), mitoxantrone resistance protein (MXR or ABCG2) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1 or ABCC1) was investigated, to assess whether an ultimate metabolite form of curcuminoids (THC) is able to modulate MDR in cancer cells. Two different types of cell lines were used for P-gp study, human cervical carcinoma KB-3-1 (wild type) and KB-V-1 and human breast cancer MCF-7 (wild type) and MCF-7 MDR, whereas, pcDNA3.1 and pcDNA3.1-MRP1 transfected HEK 293 and MXR overexpressing MCF7AdrVp3000 or MCF7FL1000 and its parental MCF-7 were used for MRP1 and MXR study, respectively. We report here for the first time that THC is able to inhibit the function of P-gp, MXR and MRP1. The results of flow cytometry assay indicated that THC is able to inhibit the function of P-gp and thereby significantly increase the accumulation of rhodamine and calcein AM in KB-V-1 cells. The result was confirmed by the effect of THC on [(3)H]-vinblastine accumulation and efflux in MCF-7 and MCF-7MDR. THC significantly increased the accumulation and inhibited the efflux of [(3)H]-vinblastine in MCF-7 MDR in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect was not found in wild type MCF-7 cell line. The interaction of THC with the P-gp molecule was clearly indicated by ATPase assay and photoaffinity labeling of P-gp with transport substrate. THC stimulated P-gp ATPase activity and inhibited the incorporation of [(125)I]-iodoarylazidoprazosin (IAAP) into P-gp in a concentration-dependent manner. The binding of [(125)I]-IAAP to MXR was also inhibited by THC suggesting that THC interacted with drug binding site of the transporter. THC dose dependently inhibited the efflux of mitoxantrone and pheophorbide A from MXR expressing cells (MCF7AdrVp3000 and MCF7FL1000). Similarly with MRP1, the efflux of a fluorescent substrate calcein AM was inhibited effectively by THC thereby the accumulation of calcein was increased in MRP1-HEK 293 and not its parental pcDNA3.1-HEK 293 cells. The MDR reversing properties of THC on P-gp, MRP1, and MXR were determined by MTT assay. THC significantly increased the sensitivity of vinblastine, mitoxantrone and etoposide in drug resistance KB-V-1, MCF7AdrVp3000 and MRP1-HEK 293 cells, respectively. This effect was not found in respective drug sensitive parental cell lines. Taken together, this study clearly showed that THC inhibits the efflux function of P-gp, MXR and MRP1 and it is able to extend the MDR reversing activity of curcuminoids in vivo.

Despite advances in treatment, asthma continues to be a significant health and economic burden. Although asthma cannot be cured, several drugs, including beta2 agonists, corticosteroids, and leukotriene (LT) modifiers, are well tolerated and effective in minimizing symptoms, improving lung function, and preventing exacerbations. However, inter-patient variability in response to asthma drugs limits their effectiveness. It has been estimated that 60-80% of this inter-patient variability may be attributable to genetic variation. LT modifiers, in particular, have been associated with heterogeneity in response. These drugs exert their action by inhibiting the activity of cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs), which are potent bronchoconstrictors and pro-inflammatory agents. Two classes of LT modifiers are 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) inhibitors (zileuton) and leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs) [montelukast, pranlukast, and zarfirlukast]. LT modifiers can be used as alternatives to low-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in mild persistent asthma, as add-on therapy to low- to medium-dose ICS in moderate persistent asthma, and as add-on to high-dose ICS and a long-acting ss2 agonist in severe persistent asthma. At least six genes encode key proteins in the LT pathway: arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5), ALOX5 activating protein (ALOX5AP [FLAP]), leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H), LTC4 synthase (LTC4S), the ATP-binding cassette family member ABCC1 (multidrug resistance protein 1 [MRP1]), and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1). Studies have reported that genetic variation in ALOX5, LTA4H, LTC4S, and ABCC1 influences response to LT modifiers. Plasma concentrations of LTRAs vary considerably among patients. Physio-chemical characteristics make it likely that membrane efflux and uptake transporters mediate the absorption of LTRAs into the systemic circulation following oral administration. Genes that encode efflux and uptake transport proteins harbor many variants that could influence the pharmacokinetics, and particularly the bioavailability, of LTRAs, and could contribute to heterogeneity in response. In the future, large, well designed clinical trials studying the pharmacogenetics of LT modifiers in diverse populations are warranted to determine whether a genetic signature can be developed that will accurately predict which patients will respond.

Recently, we have introduced [tris(1,10-phenanthroline)lanthanum(III)] trithiocyanate (KP772, FFC24) as a new lanthanum compound which has promising anticancer properties in vivo and in vitro. Aim of this study was to investigate the impact of ABC transporter-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) on the anticancer activity of KP772. Here, we demonstrate that all MDR cell models investigated, overexpressing ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein), ABCC1 (multidrug resistance protein 1), or ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein) either due to drug selection or gene transfection, were significantly hypersensitive against KP772. Using ABCB1-overexpressing KBC-1 cells as MDR model, KP772 hypersensitivity was demonstrated to be based on stronger apoptosis induction and/or cell cycle arrest at unaltered cellular drug accumulation. KP772 did neither stimulate ABCB1 ATPase activity nor alter rhodamine 123 accumulation arguing against a direct interaction with ABCB1. Accordingly, several drug resistance modulators did not sensitize but rather protect MDR cells against KP772-induced cytotoxicity. Moreover, long-term KP772 treatment of KBC-1 cells at subtoxic concentrations led within 20 passages to a complete loss of drug resistance based on blocked MDR1 gene expression. When exposing parental KB-3-1 cells to subtoxic, stepwise increasing KP772 concentrations, we observed, in contrast to several other metallo-drugs, no acquisition of KP772 resistance. Summarizing, our data demonstrate that KP772 is hyperactive in MDR cells and might have chemosensitizing properties by blocking ABCB1 expression. Together with the disability of tumor cells to acquire KP772 resistance, our data suggest that KP772 should be especially active against notoriously drug-resistant tumor types and as second line treatment after standard chemotherapy failure.

The presence of human multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) in the human erythrocyte membrane is well established. In the present study, flow cytometric monitoring is introduced to identify MRP1 as the main transporter of 2',7'-bis-(3-carboxypropyl)-5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCPCF) in the erythrocyte membrane and to facilitate inhibition and kinetic studies of MRP1-mediated transport. The ATP-dependent transport of BCPCF into human erythrocyte inside-out vesicles and, for comparison, into MRP1-expressing Sf9 cell membrane inside-out vesicles were studied. The MRP1-specific monoclonal antibody, QCRL-3 and the MRP1 inhibitor, MK-571 strongly decreased the uptake of BCPCF into both erythrocyte and MRP1-expressing Sf9 cell membrane inside-out vesicles. The inhibition profiles of cyclosporin A, verapamil, benzbromarone, and probenecid in erythrocyte membrane vesicles were typical for MRP1-mediated transport. Furthermore, kinetic constants K(m) and V(max) of BCPCF transport into erythrocyte membrane inside-out vesicles were determined in the absence and in the presence of selected inhibitors (MK-571, cyclosporin A, benzbromarone and verapamil). The presented results identified MRP1 as the major transporter of BCPCF in the human erythrocyte membrane and showed for the first time that the active transport of fluorescent substrate into inside-out vesicles can be monitored by flow cytometry.

Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is becoming indispensable to the study of transgene expression during development and, in many in vivo models of disease such as cancer, for high throughput drug screening in vitro. Because reaction of d-luciferin with firefly luciferase (fLuc) produces photons of sufficiently long wavelength to permit imaging in intact animals, use of this substrate and enzyme pair has become the method of choice for performing BLI in vivo. We now show that expression of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family transporter ABCG2/BCRP affects BLI signal output from the substrate d-luciferin. In vitro studies show that d-luciferin is a substrate for ABCG2/BCRP but not for the MDR1 P-glycoprotein (ABCB1/Pgp), multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1), or multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2/ABCC2). d-Luciferin uptake within cells is shown to be modulated by ABC transporter inhibitors, including the potent and selective ABCG2/BCRP inhibitor fumitremorgin C. Images of xenografts engineered to express transgenic ABCG2/BCRP, as well as xenografts derived from the human prostate cancer cell line 22Rv1 that naturally express ABCG2/BCRP, show that ABCG2/BCRP expression and function within regions of interest substantially influence d-luciferin-dependent bioluminescent output in vivo. These findings highlight the need to consider ABCG2/BCRP effects during d-luciferin-based BLI and suggest novel high throughput methods for identifying new ABCG2/BCRP inhibitors.

Although the kidney is a major target in hypertension, several studies have correlated important immune alterations with the development of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), like increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, inflammatory infiltration in kidneys and thymic atrophy. Because adenosine-triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1; P-glycoprotein) and adenosine-triphosphate-binding cassette sub-family C member 1 (ABCC1; multidrug resistance protein 1), two proteins first described in multidrug resistant tumors, physiologically transport several immune mediators and are required for the adequate functioning of the immune system, we aimed to measure the expression and activity of these proteins in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), thymocytes, and also kidneys of normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats and SHR. Our results showed that ABCB1, but not ABCC1, activity was diminished (nearly 50%) in PBMC. Moreover, Abcb1b gene was downregulated in PBMC and kidney of SHR and this was not counterbalanced by an upregulation of its homolog Abcb1a, suggesting that the diminished activity is due to downregulation of the gene. No alteration was detected in ABCB1 activity in SHR thymocytes, indicating that this downregulation occurs after lymphocytes leave the primary lymphoid organs. Even though it is not known at present which parameter(s) is(are) responsible for this downregulation, it may contribute for the altered immune response observed in hypertension and to possible altered drug disposition in hypertensive individuals, resulting in greater drug interaction and increased drug toxicity.
