Membrane vesicles prepared from cells expressing the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) transport glutathione S-conjugates of hydrophobic substrates in an ATP dependent manner. Purified MRP possesses ATPase activity which can be further stimulated by anticancer drugs or leukotriene C4. However, the detailed relationship between ATP hydrolysis and drug transport has not been established. How the ATPase activity of MRP is regulated in the cell is also not known. In this report, we have examined the effects of different nucleotides on the ATPase activity of purified MRP. We have found that pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphates have little effect on enzymatic activity. In contrast, purine nucleotides dATP, dGTP, and adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate function as competitive inhibitors. Somewhat unexpectedly, low concentrations of all the nucleoside diphosphates (NDPs) tested, except UDP, stimulate the ATPase activity severalfold. ADP or GDP at higher concentrations was inhibitory, reflecting NDP binding to the substrate site. On the other hand, the enhancement of hydrolysis at low NDP concentrations must reflect interactions with a separate site. Therefore, we postulate the presence of at least two types of nucleotide binding sites on the MRP, a catalytic site(s) to which ATP preferentially binds and is hydrolyzed and a regulatory site to which NDPs preferentially bind and stimulate hydrolysis. Interestingly, the stimulatory effects of drugs transported by MRP and NDPs are not additive, i.e. drugs are not able to further stimulate the NDP-activated enzyme. Hence, the two activation pathways intersect at some point. Since both nucleotide binding domains of MRP are likely to be required for drug stimulation of ATPase activity, the two sites that we postulate may also involve both domains.

Several organic anions are actively extruded from intestinal epithelial cells into the lumen and vascular sides. To examine the role of the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) family in the intestinal efflux of organic anions, the function and expression of these proteins were investigated with Caco-2, a human adenocarcinoma cell line that retains many of the characteristics of normal enterocytes. [(3)H]2,4-Dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione (DNP-SG) and [(3)H]17beta-estradiol 17-beta-D-glucuronide (E(2)17betaG), typical substrates for MRP1 and cMOAT (canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter)/MRP2, were taken up into brush-border membrane vesicles (BBMVs) from Caco-2 in an ATP-dependent manner, with K(m) values of 16.9 +/- 7.2 and 9.4 +/- 1.2 microM, respectively. The uptake of [(3)H]DNP-SG into BBMVs was osmotically sensitive and stimulated to some extent by other nucleotide triphosphates (GTP, CTP, and UTP) but not by ADP or AMP. An ATPase inhibitor, vanadate, inhibited the ATP-dependent uptake of [(3)H]DNP-SG to some extent. Reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction resulted in the amplification of MRP1, MRP3, and MRP5. Northern blot analysis indicated extensive expression of cMOAT/MRP2 and MRP3 and only minimal expression of MRP1 and MRP5. Although cMOAT/MRP2 was continuously expressed throughout the culture period, MRP3 was not expressed immediately after the confluent state was reached. Collectively, the presence of ATP-dependent transport systems for DNP-SG and E(2)17betaG was demonstrated in Caco-2 cells. Because cMOAT/MRP2 and MRP3 may be expressed on brush-border and basolateral membranes in epithelial cells, respectively, the transport activity associated with BBMVs may result from the function of cMOAT/MRP2.

The 190-kDa phosphoglycoprotein multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) (ABCC1) confers resistance to a broad spectrum of anticancer drugs and also actively transports certain xenobiotics with reduced glutathione (GSH) (cotransport) as well as conjugated organic anions such as leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)). In the present study, we have investigated a series of bioflavonoids for their ability to influence different aspects of MRP1 function. Most flavonoids inhibited MRP1-mediated LTC(4) transport in membrane vesicles and inhibition by several flavonoids was enhanced by GSH. Five of the flavonoids were competitive inhibitors of LTC(4) transport (K(i), 2.4-21 microM) in the following rank order of potency: kaempferol > apigenin (+ GSH) > quercetin > myricetin > naringenin (+ GSH). These flavonoids were less effective inhibitors of 17beta-estradiol 17beta-(D-glucuronide) transport. Moreover, their rank order of inhibitory potency for this substrate differed from that for LTC(4) transport inhibition but correlated with their relative lipophilicity. Several flavonoids, especially naringenin and apigenin, markedly stimulated GSH transport by MRP1, suggesting they may be cotransported with this tripeptide. Quercetin inhibited the ATPase activity of purified reconstituted MRP1 but stimulated vanadate-induced trapping of 8-azido-alpha-[(32)P]ADP by MRP1. In contrast, kaempferol and naringenin stimulated both MRP1 ATPase activity and trapping of ADP. In intact MRP1-overexpressing cells, quercetin reduced vincristine resistance from 8.9- to 2.2-fold, whereas kaempferol and naringenin had no effect. We conclude that dietary flavonoids may modulate the organic anion and GSH transport, ATPase, and/or drug resistance-conferring properties of MRP1. However, the activity profile of the flavonoids tested differed from one another, suggesting that at least some of these compounds may interact with different sites on the MRP1 molecule.

Substrates transported by the 190-kDa multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) (ABCC1) include endogenous organic anions such as the cysteinyl leukotriene C(4). In addition, MRP1 confers resistance against various anticancer drugs by reducing intracellular accumulation by co-export of drug with reduced GSH. We have examined the properties of LY475776, an intrinsically photoactivable MRP1-specific tricyclic isoxazole modulator that inhibits leukotriene C(4) transport by this protein in a GSH-dependent manner. We show that [125I]LY475776 photolabeling of MRP1 requires GSH but is also supported by several non-reducing GSH derivatives and peptide analogs. Limited proteolysis revealed that [(125)I]LY475776 labeling was confined to the 75-kDa COOH-proximal half of MRP1. More extensive proteolysis generated two major 125I-labeled fragments of approximately 56 and approximately 41 kDa, and immunoblotting with regionally directed antibodies showed that these fragments correspond to amino acids approximately 1045-1531 and approximately 1150-1531, respectively. However, an approximately 33-kDa COOH-terminal immunoreactive fragment was not labeled, inferring that the major [125I]LY475776-labeling site resides approximately between amino acids 1150-1250. This region encompasses transmembrane (TM) segments 16 and 17 at the COOH-proximal end of the third membrane spanning domain of the protein. [125I]LY475776 labeling of mutant MRP1 molecules with substitutions of Trp(1246) in TM17 were reduced >80% compared with wild-type MRP1, confirming that TM17 is important for LY475776 binding. Finally, vanadate-induced trapping of ADP inhibited [125I]LY475776 labeling, suggesting that ATP hydrolysis causes a conformational change in MRP1 that reduces the affinity of the protein for this inhibitor.

Multidrug-resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is a human ATP-binding cassette transporter that confers cell resistance to antitumour drugs. Its NBDs (nucleotide-binding domains) bind/hydrolyse ATP, a key step in the activation of MRP1 function. To relate its intrinsic functional features to the mechanism of action of the full-size transporter, we expressed the N-terminal NBD1 domain (Asn(642) to Ser(871)) in Escherichia coli. NBD1 was highly purified under native conditions and was characterized as a soluble monomer. (15)N-labelling allowed recording of the first two-dimensional NMR spectra of this domain. The NMR study showed that NBD1 was folded, and that Trp(653) was a key residue in the NBD1-ATP interaction. Thus, interaction of NBD1 with ATP/ADP was studied by intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence. The affinity for ATP and ADP were in the same range (K (d(ATP))=118 microM and K (d(ADP))=139 microM). Binding of nucleotides did not influence the monomeric state of NBD1. The ATPase activity of NBD1 was magnesium-dependent and very low [V (max) and K (m) values of 5x10(-5) pmol of ATP x (pmol NBD1)(-1) x s(-1) and 833 microM ATP respectively]. The present study suggests that NBD1 has a low contribution to the ATPase activity of full-length MRP1 and/or that this activity requires NBD1-NBD2 heterodimer formation.

The Multidrug Resistance Protein MRP1 (ABCC1) can confer resistance to a variety of therapeutic drugs. In addition, MRP1/ABCC1 mediates cellular export of natural folates, such as folic acid and l-leucovorin. In this study we determined whether cellular folate status affected the functional activity of MRP1/ABCC1 mediated efflux of an established substrate, the anthracycline daunorubicin (DNR). As a model system we used the human ovarian carcinoma cell line 2008wt, and its MRP1/ABCC1 transfected subline 2008/MRP1. Both types of these moderate- and high-MRP1/ABCC1 expressing cells displayed efflux of DNR when maintained in standard culture media (2.3microM folic acid). The initial total cellular DNR efflux rate in 2008/MRP1 cells was approximately 2-fold higher compared to 2008wt cells. This efflux consisted of MRP1/ABCC1 mediated transport, possibly non-MRP1 mediated transport, as well as passive diffusion. Benzbromarone, a specific MRP1 inhibitor, decreased the initial efflux rate in 2008/MRP1 cells (4-fold) and in 2008wt cells (2-fold). When 2008/MRP1 cells were challenged for 2 days in folate-free medium, total cellular DNR efflux was decreased to 43% of the initial efflux rate under folate-rich conditions. In 2008wt cells DNR efflux was decreased to 84% of the folate-rich conditions. Benzbromarone did not inhibit DNR efflux after the folate-free period in both cell lines. Repletion of folate by a 2-24hr exposure to 2.5microM l-leucovorin or folic acid resulted in a complete restoration of DNR efflux. In contrast, expression of MRP1/ABCC1 protein was not changed significantly during the folate-free period or the repletion-period, nor were cellular ATP or ADP pools. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that the cellular folate status can influence the transport activity of MRP1/ABCC1. These results have potentially important implications in the understanding of the (patho-)physiological roles of MRP1/ABCC1, and possibly other ABC transporter proteins in cellular folate homeostasis and drug resistance.

Several DNA- and microtubule-binding agents are used to manage hematologic malignancies in the clinic. However, drug resistance has been a challenge, perhaps due to a few surviving cancer stem cells. Toxicity is another major impediment to successful chemotherapy, leading to an impoverished quality of life. Here, we show that a semisynthetic nontoxic tubulin-binding agent, 9-bromonoscapine (EM011), effectively inhibits growth and regresses multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP)-overexpressing teniposide-resistant T-cell lymphoma xenografts and prolongs longevity. As expected, teniposide treatment failed to regress teniposide-resistant xenografts, rather, treated mice suffered tremendous body weight loss. Mechanistically, EM011 displays significant antiproliferative activity, perturbs cell cycle progression by arresting mitosis, and induces apoptosis in teniposide-resistant lymphoblastoid T cells both in vitro and in vivo. EM011-induced apoptosis has a mitochondrially-mediated component, which was attenuated by pretreatment with cyclosporin A. We also observed alterations of apoptosis-regulatory molecules such as inactivation of Bcl2, translocation of BAX to the mitochondrial membrane, cytochrome c release, and activation of downstream apoptotic signaling. EM011 caused DNA degradation as evident by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin end labeling staining of the increased concentration of 3'-DNA ends. Furthermore, the apoptotic induction was caspase dependent as shown by cleavage of the caspase substrate, poly(ADP)ribose polymerase. In addition, EM011 treatment caused a suppression of natural survival pathways such as the phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase/Akt signaling. These preclinical findings suggest that EM011 is an excellent candidate for clinical evaluation.

ABCG2 confers resistance to cancer cells by mediating the ATP-dependent outward efflux of chemotherapeutic compounds. Recent studies have indicated that the protein contains a number of interconnected drug binding sites. The present investigation examines the coupling of drug binding to ATP hydrolysis. Initial drug binding to the protein requires a high-affinity interaction with the drug binding site, followed by transition and reorientation to the low-affinity state to enable dissociation at the extracellular face. [3H]Daunomycin binding to the ABCG2 R482G isoform was examined in the nucleotide-bound and post-hydrolytic conformations. Binding of [3H]daunomycin was displaced by ATP analogues, indicating transition to a low-affinity conformation prior to hydrolysis. The low-affinity state was observed to be retained immediately post-hydrolysis. Therefore, the dissociation of phosphate and/or ADP is likely to be responsible for resetting of the transporter. The data indicate that, like ABCB1 and ABCC1, the 'power stroke' for translocation in ABCG2 R482G is the binding of nucleotide.
