The effects of dietary plant sterols on human drug efflux transporters P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) were investigated using P-gp-overexpressing human carcinoma KB-C2 cells and human MRP1 gene-transfected KB/MRP cells. The effects of natural phytosterols found in foods, herbs, and dietary supplements such as beta-sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, fucosterol, and z-guggulsterone were investigated. The accumulation of daunorubicin or rhodamine 123, fluorescent substrates of P-gp, increased in the presence of guggulsterone in KB-C2 cells. The efflux of rhodamine 123 from KB-C2 cells was inhibited by guggulsterone. Guggulsterone also increased the accumulation of calcein, a fluorescent substrate of MRP1, in KB/MRP cells. The ATPase activities of P-gp and MRP1 were stimulated by guggulsterone. These results suggest that guggulsterone, a natural dietary hypolipidemic agent have dual inhibitory effects on P-gp and MRP1 and the potencies to cause food-drug interactions.

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are involved in a variety of physiological processes such as lipid metabolism, ion homeostasis and immune functions. A large number of these proteins have been causatively linked to rare and common human genetic diseases including familial high-density lipoprotein deficiency, retinopathies, cystic fibrosis, diabetes and cardiomyopathies. Furthermore, genetic variations in ABC transporter genes and deregulated expression patterns significantly contribute to drug resistance in human cancer and pancreatic beta cells and alter the pharmacokinetic properties of a variety of drugs. Up-to-date 15 ABC transporters have been identified in human pancreatic beta cells, however only a few of them are identified to date as proteins/genes associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) in diabetes mellitus. Prominent members include the multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1), sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1/ABCC8), the multi drug transporter TAP2 and member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter subfamily A (ABCA1). ABCC8 is a subunit of the pancreatic beta-cell K(ATP) channel and plays a key role in the regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Although the physiological role of these transporters to MDR is not yet fully understood, they play an important role in the blood-membrane barrier in pancreatic beta cells. The aim of this article is to provide an overview and to present few examples of drug treatment in MDR in diabetes mellitus associated with function of ABC-transporters.

The capacity of dendritic cells (DCs) to migrate from peripheral organs to lymph nodes (LNs) is important in the initiation of a T cell-mediated immune response. The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters P-glycoprotein (P-gp; ABCB1) and the multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1; ABCC1) have been shown to play a role in both human and murine DC migration. Here we show that a more recently discovered family member, MRP4 (ABCC4), is expressed on both epidermal and dermal human skin DCs and contributes to the migratory capacity of DCs. Pharmacological inhibition of MRP4 activity or down-regulation through RNAi in DCs resulted in reduced migration of DCs from human skin explants and of in vitro generated Langerhans cells. The responsible MRP4 substrate remains to be identified as exogenous addition of MRP4's known substrates prostaglandin E(2), leukotriene B(4) and D(4), or cyclic nucleotides (all previously implicated in DC migration) could not restore migration. This notwithstanding, our data show that MRP4 is an important protein, significantly contributing to human DC migration toward the draining lymph nodes, and therefore relevant for the initiation of an immune response and a possible target for immunotherapy.

The effects of dietary chemopreventive citrus phytochemicals on the drug efflux transporters P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) were investigated using P-glycoprotein-overexpressing human carcinoma KB-C2 cells and human MRP1 gene-transfected KB/MRP cells. The effects of natural chemopreventive citrus phytochemicals, such as auraptene, nobiletin, citral, citronellal, limonene, limonin, and synephrine were examined. The accumulation of daunorubicin, a fluorescent substrate of P-glycoprotein, increased in the presence of auraptene and nobiletin in KB-C2 cells. Nobiletin also increased the accumulation of calcein, a fluorescent substrate of MRP1, in KB/MRP cells. The ATPase activity of P-glycoprotein was stimulated by auraptene and nobiletin. The ATPase activity of MRP1 was stimulated by nobiletin. These results suggest that chemopreventive citrus phytochemicals, such as nobiletin found in oranges, have inhibitory effects on P-glycoprotein and/or MRP1, and may cause food-drug interactions.

Sunitinib is an ATP-competitive multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In this study, we evaluated the possible interaction of sunitinib with P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1), multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2) and lung-resistance protein (LRP) in vitro. Our results showed that sunitinib completely reverse drug resistance mediated by ABCG2 at a non-toxic concentration of 2.5muM and has no significant reversal effect on ABCB1-, ABCC1- and LRP-mediated drug resistance, although a small synergetic effect was observed in combining sunitinib and conventional chemotherapeutic agents in ABCB1 overexpressing MCF-7/adr and parental sensitive MCF-7 cells, ABCC1 overexpressing C-A120 and parental sensitive KB-3-1 cells. Sunitinib significantly increased intracellular accumulation of rhodamine 123 and doxorubicin and remarkably inhibited the efflux of rhodamine 123 and methotrexate by ABCG2 in ABCG2-overexpressing cells, and also profoundly inhibited the transport of [(3)H]-methotrexate by ABCG2. However, sunitinib did not affect the expression of ABCG2 at mRNA or protein levels. In addition, sunitinib did not block the phosphorylation of Akt and Erk1/2 in ABCG2-overexpressing or parental sensitive cells. Overall, we conclude that sunitinib reverses ABCG2-mediated MDR through inhibiting the drug efflux function of ABCG2. These findings may be useful for cancer combinational therapy with sunitinib in the clinic.

The effects of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)] on gene expression and function were studied in Caco-2 cells. Microarray analyses, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reactions, and Western blotting were used to determine the mRNA and protein expression of transporters and enzymes after 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) or vehicle (0.1% ethanol) treatment for 1, 3, 6, and 10 days. The mRNA and protein expressions of the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter, oligopeptide transporter 1, multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 3, and sulfotransferase 1E1 remained unchanged with 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) treatment, whereas those for CYP3A4, multidrug resistance protein 1, and MRP2 were significantly increased (P < 0.05). 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) treatment significantly enhanced MRP4 protein expression by increasing protein stability without affecting mRNA expression, as confirmed in cycloheximide experiments. Marked increase in 6beta-hydroxylation of testosterone by CYP3A4 was also observed in the 6-day 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-treated (100 nM) cell lysate. The transport of [(3)H]digoxin, the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate, after treatment with 100 nM 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) for 3 days revealed a higher apparent permeability (P(app)) value in the basal (B)-to-apical (A) direction over that of vehicle treatment (15.1 +/- 0.53 x 10(-6) versus 11.8 +/- 0.58 x 10(-6) cm/s; P < 0.05), whereas the P(app) in the A-to-B direction was unchanged; the efflux ratio was increased (from 5.8 to 8.0). Reduced cellular retention of 5-(and-6)-carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein, suggestive of higher MRP2 activity, was observed in the 3-day 100 nM 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-treated cells over controls. Higher protein expression of CYP3A4, MRP2, P-gp, and MRP4 was also observed after a 6-day treatment with other vitamin D analogs (100 nM 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3),1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(2) or Hectorol, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3)) in Caco-2 cells, suggesting a role of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and analogs in the activation of enzymes and transporters via the vitamin D receptor.

Here we showed that bivalency approach is effective in modulating multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1)-mediated doxorubicin (DOX) and etoposide (VP16) resistance in human 2008/MRP1 ovarian carcinoma cells. Flavonoid dimers bearing five or six ethylene glycol (EG) units with 6-methyl (4e, 4f) or 7-methyl (5e, 5f) substitution on the ring A of flavonoid dimers have the highest modulating activity for DOX against MRP1 with an EC(50) ranging from 73 to 133 nM. At 0.5 microM, the flavonoid dimer 4e was sufficient to restore DOX accumulation in 2008/MRP1 to parental 2008/P level. Lineweaver-Burk and Dixon plot suggested that it is likely a competitive inhibitor of DOX transport with a K(i) = 0.2 microM. Our data suggest that flavonoid dimers have a high affinity toward binding to DOX recognition site of MRP1. This results in inhibiting DOX transport, increasing intracellular DOX retention, and finally resensitizing 2008/MRP1 to DOX. The present study demonstrates that flavonoid dimers can be employed as an effective modulator of MRP1-mediated drug resistance in cancer cells.

Cobalamin (Cbl, vitamin B(12)) deficiency in humans is a cause of hematologic and neurologic disorders. We show here that the cellular export of Cbl, in contrast to the carrier- and receptor-dependent cellular import of Cbl, occurs by transmembrane transport of "free" Cbl. Screening of candidate transporters by cellular gene silencing showed a role in cellular Cbl efflux of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC)-drug transporter, ABCC1, alias multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), which is present in the basolateral membrane of intestinal epithelium and in other cells. The ability of MRP1 to mediate ATP-dependent Cbl transport was confirmed by vesicular transport experiments, and a physiologic role of MRP1 in mammalian Cbl homeostasis is indicated by the phenotype of knockout mice with targeted disruption of MRP1. These animals have a reduced concentration of Cbl in plasma and in the storage organs liver and kidney. In contrast, Cbl accumulates in the terminal part of the intestine of these mice, suggesting a functional malabsorption because of a lower epithelial basolateral Cbl efflux. The identification of this Cbl export mechanism now allows the delineation of a coherent pathway for Cbl trafficking from food to the body cells.

The effects of dietary antioxidative and chemopreventive rosemary phytochemicals on the function of the human drug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (MDR1, ABCB1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) were investigated using P-glycoprotein-overexpressing human carcinoma KB-C2 cells and human MRP1 gene-transfected KB/MRP cells. The effects of natural phytochemicals found in rosemary such as carnosic acid, carnosol, rosmarinic acid, and ursolic acid were investigated. The accumulation of daunorubicin or rhodamine 123, fluorescent substrates of P-glycoprotein, in KB-C2 cells increased in the presence of carnosic acid, carnosol, and ursolic acid in a concentration-dependent manner. In contrast, carnosic acid, carnosol, rosmarinic acid, and ursolic acid had no effects on the accumulation of calcein, a fluorescent substrate of MRP1, in KB/MRP cells. The ATPase activities of P-glycoprotein were stimulated by carnosic acid, carnosol, and ursolic acid. KB-C2 cells were sensitized to vinblastine cytotoxicity by carnosic acid, showing that carnosic acid reverses multidrug resistance. These results suggest that rosemary phytochemicals, such as carnosic acid, have inhibitory effects on anticancer drug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein and may become useful to enhance the efficacy of cancer chemotherapy.

To predict the efficacy of cisplatin and radiation therapy for maxillary squamous cell carcinoma, we examined the mRNA expression of 14 cisplatin-resistant genes and p53 mutation in specimens biopsied from patients prior to initiation of therapy. Five of 10 patients had mutations in the p53 gene, of whom four had residual tumors pathologically following chemoradiotherapy (p=0.0476). Of 14 genes examined, the mRNA expression of ATP7B was significantly lower in cases that were resistant to chemoradiotherapy. Six genes including multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR-1), multidrug resistance associated protein 1 (MRP-1), Cu++ transporting, beta polypeptide (ATP7B), xeroderma pigmentosum, complementation group A (XPA), excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 1 (ERCC-1) and B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (BCL2) were down-regulated in cases of recurrent cancers. These results show that the evaluation of p53 mutation provides the most useful predictor of therapeutic effects. In responder cases, the drug-resistant genes that were determined in cell lines by culture do not necessarily translate into clinical relevance.
