Inorganic arsenic is an established human carcinogen, but its metabolism is incompletely defined. The ATP binding cassette protein, multidrug resistance protein (MRP1/ABCC1), transports conjugated organic anions (e.g. leukotriene C(4)) and also co-transports certain unmodified xenobiotics (e.g. vincristine) with glutathione (GSH). MRP1 also confers resistance to arsenic in association with GSH; however, the mechanism and the species of arsenic transported are unknown. Using membrane vesicles prepared from the MRP1-overexpressing lung cancer cell line, H69AR, we found that MRP1 transports arsenite (As(III)) only in the presence of GSH but does not transport arsenate (As(V)) (with or without GSH). The non-reducing GSH analogs L-gamma-glutamyl-L-alpha-aminobutyryl glycine and S-methyl GSH did not support As(III) transport, indicating that the free thiol group of GSH is required. GSH-dependent transport of As(III) was 2-fold higher at pH 6.5-7 than at a more basic pH, consistent with the formation and transport of the acid-stable arsenic triglutathione (As(GS)(3)). Immunoblot analysis of H69AR vesicles revealed the unexpected membrane association of GSH S-transferase P1-1 (GSTP1-1). Membrane vesicles from an MRP1-transfected HeLa cell line lacking membrane-associated GSTP1-1 did not transport As(III) even in the presence of GSH but did transport synthetic As(GS)(3). The addition of exogenous GSTP1-1 to HeLa-MRP1 vesicles resulted in GSH-dependent As(III) transport. The apparent K(m) of As(GS)(3) for MRP1 was 0.32 microM, suggesting a remarkably high relative affinity. As(GS)(3) transport by MRP1 was osmotically sensitive and was inhibited by several conjugated organic anions (MRP1 substrates) as well as the metalloid antimonite (K(i) 2.8 microM). As(GS)(3) transport experiments using MRP1 mutants with substrate specificities differing from wild-type MRP1 suggested a commonality in the substrate binding pockets of As(GS)(3) and leukotriene C(4). Finally, human MRP2 also transported As(GS)(3). In conclusion, MRP1 transports inorganic arsenic as a tri-GSH conjugate, and GSTP1-1 may have a synergistic role in this process.

The multiple drug resistance protein 1 (MRP1 or ABCC1) transports anticancer drugs and normal cell metabolites. Leucotriene C(4) (LTC(4)) is one of the highest affinity substrates of MRP1. In this study, we have synthesized and characterized a novel photoreactive azido analogue of LTC(4) (AALTC(4)). The specificity of AALTC(4) binding to MRP1 was confirmed using an LTC(4)-specific monoclonal antibody. Moreover, binding with radioiodinated [(125)I]AALTC(4) (or IAALTC(4)) to MRP1 was dramatically competed with unmodified LTC(4) and to a lesser degree by glutathione (GSH). Oxidized glutathione (GSSG) slightly increased IAALTC(4) binding to MRP1, while MK571, verapamil, and vincristine inhibited IAALTC(4) binding to MRP1. Using AALTC(4) together with a panel of epitope-specific and LTC(4)-specific monoclonal antibodies, we identified LTC(4) binding sites in MRP1. Western blotting of large tryptic fragments of MRP1 with three well-characterized epitope-specific mAbs (MRPr1, QCRL1, and MRPm6) showed LTC(4) binding in both the N- and C-terminal halves of MRP1. Furthermore, a peptide corresponding to the N-terminal membrane-spanning domain of MRP1 (MSD0) was photoaffinity labeled by AALTC(4), indicating that MSD0 contains an LTC(4) binding site. Higher resolution mapping of additional LTC(4) binding sites was obtained using eight MRP1 variants with each containing hemaglutanin A (HA) epitopes at different sites (at amino acid 4, 163, 271, 574, 653, 938, 1001, or 1222). MRP1 variants were photoaffinity labeled with IAALTC(4) and digested with trypsin to isolate specific regions of MRP1 that interact with LTC(4). These results confirmed that sequences in MSD0 interact with IAALTC(4). Other regions that were photoaffinity labeled by IAALTC(4) include TM 10-11, TM 16-17, and TM 12, shown previously to encode MRP1 drug binding site(s). Together, our results show a high-resolution map of LTC(4) binding domains in MRP1 and provide the first direct evidence for LTC(4) binding within MSD0.

The human ATP-binding cassette proteins MRP1 (ABCC1), MRP2 (ABCC2) and MRP3 (ABCC3) are active transporters of antineoplastic drugs as well as conjugated metabolites and other organic anions. In addition to being substrates, many glucuronide, glutathione and sulfate conjugates can also inhibit the transport activities of these MRP-related proteins, sometimes in a glutathione (GSH)-dependent manner. Nicotine is the major addictive component of cigarette smoke. Three glucuronide metabolites of this compound have been identified in vivo: nicotine-N-glucuronide, cotinine-N-glucuronide and trans-hydroxycotinine-O-glucuronide. In this study, we first chemically synthesized trans-hydroxycotinine-O-glucuronide and then tested the ability of this compound, nicotine-N-glucuronide and cotinine-N-glucuronide to modulate the vesicular transport of several organic anions by MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3. We observed that none of the three metabolites at concentrations up to 100muM significantly affected organic anion transport by MRP1 or MRP2, either in the absence or presence of GSH. MRP3-mediated transport of 17beta-estradiol 17-(beta-d-glucuronide) and methotrexate were partially inhibited by trans-hydroxycotinine-O-glucuronide (300 microM) (by 70% and 50%, respectively), whereas nicotine-N-glucuronide and cotinine-N-glucuronide had no effect. We conclude that the physiological functions of MRP1, MRP2 and MRP3 are not likely to be substantially affected by nicotine glucuronide metabolites at concentrations achievable in human serum.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of newly synthesized 4-aryl-1,4-dihydropyridine and pyridines on drug efflux mediated by multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1). These compounds were designed to maximize inhibition of P-glycoprotein and minimize calcium channel binding activity, based on structure modifications of niguldipine. A [3H]vinblastine accumulation study was conducted in human small cell lung cancer H69AR (overexpressing MRP1) and wild type H69 cells. Five out of 16 dihydropyridines and 6 out of 9 pyridines were found to significantly increase the intracellular accumulation of vinblastine in resistant H69AR cells (p<0.01) at a concentration of 2.5 microM. Daunomycin accumulation studies, determined using a flow cytometric assay, were also performed in H69AR and human pancreatic adenocarcinoma Panc-1 cells and the results were highly correlated with those obtained from the [3H]vinblastine accumulation studies. Four compounds, which significantly increased vinblastine accumulation, were tested for their effect on daunomycin cytotoxicity in H69AR cells and found to significantly decrease the IC50 of daunomycin, confirming the accumulation study results. Compounds were also tested for their effect on intracellular glutathione (GSH) concentrations, a cosubstrate for MRP1-mediated efflux in H69AR and Panc-1 cells. No significant changes in the intracellular GSH level were observed in H69AR cells after treatment with these test compounds. However, following a 2-hr and 24-hr incubation with a dihydropyridine compound, Im, and its pyridine derivative IIm, there was a small (approximately 20%) but statistically significant decrease in intracellular GSH in Panc-1 cells. Our results indicate that some dihydropyridine and pyridine compounds in our series could inhibit MRP1-mediated transport and that GSH modulation plays a minor, if any, role in this effect.

Multidrug resistance protein-5 (MRP5, ABCC5) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily that effluxes a broad range of natural and xenobiotic compounds such as cyclic GMP, antiviral compounds, and cancer chemotherapeutic agents including nucleoside-based drugs, antifolate agents and platinum compounds. In cellular assays, MRP5 transfectants are less fluorescent after incubation with 5-chloromethylfluorescein diacetate (CMFDA). The present study examines the uptake of a close fluorescent analog, carboxydichlorofluorescein (CDCF), and drug substrates into inside-out membrane vesicles prepared from MRP transfected cells. MRP5-mediated uptake of CDCF was ATP-dependent and GSH-independent and possessed a Km of 12 microM and a Vmax of 56 pmol/min/mg prot. Comparison of kinetic parameters with drug substrates such as methotrexate (MTX), pemetrexed (Alimta), and the metabolite of 5-fluorouracil, 5-fluorodeoxyuridine monophosphate (5-FdUMP) (Km values of 0.3-1.3 mM) indicated that MRP5 has a 25-100-fold higher affinity for CDCF than for these drugs and that they share a common transport binding site. In addition, the potency of MRP5 inhibitors such as probenecid, MK571, and the phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors correlated well between the uptake of CDCF and MTX. A survey of CDCF uptake by other MRPs revealed that MRP2 (ABCC2) also demonstrated ATP-dependent uptake with a Km of 19 microM and Vmax of 95.5 pmol/min/mg prot, while MRP1 (ABCC1) and MRP4 (ABCC4) had little to no uptake. Taken together, these data indicate that CDCF is a useful fluorescent drug surrogate with which to measure ATP-dependent MRP5-mediated transport.

Multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is an ATP-dependent efflux pump that can confer resistance to multiple anticancer drugs and transport conjugated organic anions. Unusually, transport of several MRP1 substrates requires glutathione (GSH). For example, estrone sulfate transport by MRP1 is stimulated by GSH, vincristine is co-transported with GSH, or GSH can be transported alone. In the present study, radioligand binding assays were developed to investigate the mechanistic details of GSH-stimulated transport of estrone sulfate by MRP1. We have established that estrone sulfate binding to MRP1 requires GSH, or its non-reducing analogue S-methyl GSH (S-mGSH), and further that the affinity (Kd) of MRP1 for estrone sulfate is 2.5-fold higher in the presence of S-mGSH than GSH itself. Association kinetics show that GSH binds to MRP1 first, and we propose that GSH binding induces a conformational change, which makes the estrone sulfate binding site accessible. Binding of non-hydrolyzable ATP analogues to MRP1 decreases the affinity for estrone sulfate. However, GSH (or S-mGSH) is still required for estrone sulfate binding, and the affinity for GSH is unchanged. Estrone sulfate affinity remains low following hydrolysis of ATP. The affinity for GSH also appears to decrease in the post-hydrolytic state. Our results indicate ATP binding is sufficient for reconfiguration of the estrone sulfate binding site to lower affinity and argue for the presence of a modulatory GSH binding site not associated with transport of this tripeptide. A model for the mechanism of GSH-stimulated estrone sulfate transport is proposed.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle to successful application of cancer chemotherapy and also a basic problem in cancer biology. Studies on the molecular basis of MDR have revealed that a number of proteins over express in multidrug resistant cells viz., multidrug resistant MDR1 gene product P-glycoprotein, the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) and enzymes associated with the glutathione (GSH) metabolism. Decreased expression or altered activity of topoisomerase II has also been implicated in MDR. In the present investigation a number of changes in phase II detoxification parameters have been noticed in drug resistant cells but the novel aspect of the present report is the observation that the metal copper is involved in drug resistance. Although copper plays important roles in many human and other biological systems and even in the treatment of cancer but the relation of Cu and drug resistance has not so far been studied in detailed. The present report describes the novel findings that the level of copper increases with the development of drug resistance in Ehrlich ascites carcinoma and in Lewis lung carcinoma cells and also in serum of mice bearing drug resistant cancer cells compared to mice bearing drug sensitive cells; the work indicates the important aspect of treating drug resistant cancer patients by lowering Cu level in the cancerous cells and serum prior to treatment.

We generated a Cd-sensitive insertional mutant, Cds18, in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and elucidated the deletion of a 10 kb fragment containing the promoter and a portion of the coding region for CrMRP2 gene that silenced the transcription of CrMRP2 in mutant Cds18. The association between CrMRP2 and Cd sensitivity was confirmed by complementing mutant Cds18 with a cloned genomic DNA fragment containing the promoter and complete coding sequence for CrMRP2. The genomic region and the full-length cDNA for CrMRP2 were cloned and sequenced. Computer searches detected the significant resemblance of CrMRP2 with HsMRP1, AtMRP3 and ScYCF1, in Homo sapiens, Arabidopsis thaliana and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, respectively. All are members of the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP)/cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) subfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. When the cDNA of CrMRP2 was cloned into the yeast expression vector pEGKT and transformed into the yeast mutant strain DTY168 lacking ScYCF1, it restored the function of ScYCF1, a yeast vacuolar glutathione (GSH)-conjugate ABC transporter. A putative vacuolar-targeting motif (T/I/K)LP(L/K/I) was detected in the N-terminal part of CrMRP2. In wild-type C. reinhardtii, CrMRP2 transcription was significantly up-regulated upon Cd treatment. Comparing with mutant Cds18, the wild-type algal cells accumulated and sequestered more Cd in the stable high molecular weight (HMW) phytochelatin (PC)-Cd complex; the labile low molecular weight (LMW) PC-Cd complex was detected in mutant Cds18 at an earlier stage of Cd treatment. This study demonstrated the expression of CrMRP2 in C. reinhardtii and implicated its function in the formation/accumulation of stable HMW PC-Cd complex.

Multidrug resistance related protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) is an ABC transporter protein related to the extrusion of reduced glutathione (GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG) and GSH-conjugates, as well as leukotriene C(4) and cyclopentane prostaglandins. Inhibition of ABCC1 activity impairs lymphocyte activation. The present work studied ABCC1 expression and activity on a murine macrophage cell line, RAW 267.4 and the effects of ABCC1 classical inhibitors, as well as GSH metabolism modulators, on LPS induced activation. Approximately, 75% of resting cells were positive for ABCC1 and the classical ABCC1 reversors (indomethacin, 0.1-2mM; probenecid, 0.1-10mM and MK571, 0.01-1mM) were able to enhance intracellular CFDA accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner, suggesting ABCC1 inhibition. After LPS (100ng/ml) activation 50% of the population was positive for ABCC1, and this protein was still active. In LPS-activated cells, ABCC1 activity was also impaired by BSO (1mM), an inhibitor of GSH synthesis. Conversely, GSH (5mM) reversed the BSO effect. ABCC1 inhibition by indomethacin, probenecid or MK571 decreased LPS induced nitrite production in a concentration-dependent manner, the same result was observed with BSO and again GSH reversed its effect. The ABCC1 reversors were also able to inhibit iNOS expression. In conclusion, LPS modulated the expression and activity of ABCC1 transporters in RAW macrophages and inhibitors of these transporters were capable of inhibiting nitrite production suggesting a role for ABCC1 transporters in the inflammatory process.

The over-expression of ABCC1 transmembrane protein has been shown to cause multidrug resistance in tumor cell lines. ABCC1 is a member of the ABC transmembrane proteins that function as efflux pumps with diverse substrate specificity. Several endogenous cell metabolites, including the leukotriene C4 (LTC(4)) and glutathione (GSH) are substrates for ABCC1 protein. ABCC1 expression in certain tumor cells was demonstrated to confer hypersensitivity to glutathione modulating agents. In this report we have investigated the mechanism of collateral sensitivity seen in tumor cells over-expressing ABCC1 protein. The results of this study show that ABCC1 expression in tumor cells correlates with their hypersensitivity to various glutathione modulating agents, as demonstrated in H69AR-drug selected and HeLa/ABCC1-transfectant cells. This effect was triggered either through inhibition of GSH synthesis with BSO or by increasing ABCC1-mediated GSH transport with verapamil or apigenin. In addition, our results show that the hypersensitivity of ABCC1-expressing cells to BSO, verapamil or apigenin was preceded by an increase in reactive oxygen species (or ROS). A decrease in GSH level is also observed prior the increase in ROS. In addition, we show that hypersensitivity to the BSO, verapamil or apigenin leads to tumor cell death by apoptosis. Together, the results of this study demonstrate that ABCC1 potentiates oxidative stress in tumor cells through reductions in cellular GSH levels.
