Mobilization of dendritic cells into lymphatic vessels requires cytokine stimulation and induction of the chemokine receptor CCR7. The respective roles of the CCR7 ligands CCL19 and CCL21 in mediating migration are not fully defined, but chemotaxis to CCL19 mediates Langerhans cell exit from the epidermis. Optimal chemotaxis to CCL19 occurs when DCs are triggered with exogenous leukotriene C(4), an eicosanoid transported out of the cell via the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter multidrug resistance related protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1). Indeed, MRP1 and the related multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1, p-glycoprotein, ABCB1) may control the intracellular and extracellular accumulation of key signaling lipids that regulate dendritic cell migration.

P-glycoprotein (Pgp/ABCB1) and multidrug resistance related protein 1 (MRP1/ABCC1) were first described in multidrug resistant tumor cells. It is presently known that both proteins are also expressed in a variety of normal cells, including lymphocytes. ABCB1 activity has already been detected in subpopulations of murine thymocytes, but there was little information on the expression or activity of ABCC1 in these cells. The present work studied in mice the expression of both proteins by RT-PCR and immunofluorescence. It was possible to identify the presence of ABCB1 and to detect the expression of ABCC1 in these cells. The functional activities of these proteins were also studied in vivo and in vitro measuring the extrusion of fluorescent dyes in association with MDR modulators. Cyclosporine A, verapamil and trifluoperazine inhibited the activity of thymic ABCB1. Indomethacin, probenecid and MK571 were effective in inhibiting ABCC1 activity by thymic cells. ABCB1 was only active in a small percentage of thymocytes being present in the immature double negative (not CD4 nor CD8) subpopulation and the mature single positive (CD4 or CD8) subpopulations. The functional activity of ABCC1, on the other hand, was more homogeneously distributed being found in all thymocyte subpopulations. Possible physiological roles for these transporters on thymocytes are discussed.

We investigated the fate of latex (LX) particles that were introduced into mice intranasally. Macrophages acquired the vast majority of particles and outnumbered LX particle-bearing airway dendritic cells (DCs) by at least two orders of magnitude. Yet alveolar macrophages were refractory to migration to the draining lymph node (DLN), and all transport to the DLN could be ascribed to the few LX(+) airway DCs. Upon macrophage depletion, markedly greater numbers of DCs were recruited into the alveolar space. Consequently, the number of DCs that carried particles to the DLN was boosted by 20-fold. Thus, a so far overlooked aspect of macrophage-mediated suppression of airway DC function stems from the modulation of DC recruitment into the airway. This increase in DC recruitment permitted the development of a robust assay to quantify the subsequent migration of DCs to the DLN. Therefore, we determined whether lung DCs use the same molecules that skin DCs use during migration to DLNs. Like skin DCs, lung DCs used CCR7 ligands and CCR8 for emigration to DLN, but the leukotriene C(4) transporter multidrug resistance-related protein 1 did not mediate lung DC migration as it does in skin, indicating that pathways governing DC migration from different tissues partially differ in molecular regulation.

Interindividual differences of drug response are an important cause of treatment failures and adverse drug reactions. The identification of polymorphisms explaining distinct phenotypes of drug metabolizing enzymes contributed in part to the understanding of individual variations of drug plasma levels. However, bioavailability also depends on a major extent from the expression and activity of drug transport across biomembranes. In particular efflux transporters of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family such as ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein, P-gp), the ABCC (multidrug resistance-related protein, MRP) family and ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein, BCRP) have been identified as major determinants of chemoresistance in tumor cells. They are expressed in the apical membranes of many barrier tissue such as the intestine, liver, blood-brain barrier, kidney, placenta, testis and in lymphocytes, thus contributing to plasma, liquor, but also intracellular drug disposition. Since expression and function exhibit a broad variability, it was hypothesized that hereditary variances in the genes of membrane transporters could explain at least in part interindividual differences of pharmacokinetics and clinical outcome of a variety of drugs. This review focuses on the functional significance of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCC2, and ABCG2 in in vitro systems, in vivo tissues and drug disposition, as well as on the clinical outcome of major indications.

Multidrug resistance-related protein 1 (MRP1), an ATP-binding cassette transporter encoded by the ABCC1 gene, is expressed in many tissues, and functions as an efflux transporter for glutathione-, glucuronate- and sulfate-conjugates as well as unconjugated substrates. In this study, the 31 exons and their flanking introns of ABCC1 were comprehensively screened for genetic variations in 153 Japanese subjects to elucidate the linkage disequilibrium (LD) profiles and haplotype structures of ABCC1 that is necessary for pharmacogenetic studies of the substrate drugs. Eighty-six genetic variations including 31 novel ones were found: 1 in the 5'-flanking region, 1 in the 5'-untranslated region (UTR), 20 in the coding exons (9 synonymous and 11 nonsynonymous variations), 4 in the 3'-UTR, and 60 in the introns. Of these, eight novel nonsynonymous variations, 726G>T (Trp242Cys), 1199T>C (Ile400Thr), 1967G>C (Ser656Thr), 2530G>A (Gly844Ser), 3490G>A (Val1164Ile), 3550G>A (Glu1184Lys), 3901C>T (Arg1301Cys), and 4502A>G (Asp1501Gly), were detected with an allele frequency of 0.003. Based on the LD profiles, the analyzed regions of the gene were divided into five LD blocks (Blocks -1 and 1 to 4). The multiallelic repeat polymorphism in the 5'-UTR was defined as Block -1. For Blocks 1, 2, 3 and 4, 32, 23, 23 and 13 haplotypes were inferred, and 9, 7, 7 and 6 haplotypes commonly found on > or = 10 chromosomes accounted for > or = 91% of the inferred haplotypes in each block. Haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms for each block were identified to capture the common haplotypes. This study would provide fundamental and useful information for the pharmacogenetic studies of MRP1-dependently effluxed drugs in Japanese.

Anthracyline antibiotics, produced by Streptomyces sp., still rank among the most efficient anticancer drugs in clinical use. Aim of this study was to gain deeper insight into the anticancer properties of the anthracycline-related angucycline landomycin E (LE). The impact of LE on nuclear morphology was assessed by 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining in the human carcinoma cell model KB-3-1. LE treatment led to the appearance of typical morphological signs of programmed cell death like cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation and formation of apoptotic bodies. Apoptotic cell death induced by LE was further characterised by caspase (substrate) cleavage and intense mitochondrial membrane depolarisation (JC-1 and rhodamine 123 staining) already after 1h drug incubation. Moreover, incubation with LE led to reduced intracellular ATP pools suggesting LE-induced apoptotic cell death as a consequence of rapid mitochondrial damage. Furthermore, LE treatment led to profound generation of intracellular oxidative stress, indicated by radical scavenger pre-treatment and dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCF-DA) staining experiments. Since chemoresistance is a common problem in cancer therapy, we also investigated the influence of ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein, P-gp), ABCC1 (multidrug resistance-related protein, MRP1) and ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein, BCRP) overexpression on the anticancer activity of LE. Compared to anthracyclines, cytotoxic activity of LE was only weakly reduced by P-gp and MRP1 overexpression. Moreover, BCRP expression had no influence on LE anticancer activity. In summary, LE exerts anticancer activity via potent induction of apoptosis and has promising anticancer activity even against multidrug resistant (MDR) cells. Taken together, these data suggest further development of LE as a new anticancer drug.

The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCC1, or multidrug resistance-related protein 1 (MRP1) is implicated in Phase II metabolism and multidrug resistance as it effluxes substrate anticancer drugs. As cannabinoids inhibit two related ABC transporters, P-glycoprotein and ABCG2, here we examined whether they also inhibit ABCC1. Indeed, the cannabinoids enhanced the intracellular accumulation of two ABCC1 substrates, Fluo3 and vincristine, in ovarian carcinoma cells over-expressing ABCC1 (2008/MRP1) with a rank order of potency: cannabidiol>cannabinol>Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol. Cannabinoid inhibition of ABCC1 was confirmed using insect cell membrane MRP1 ATPase assays. These results demonstrate that cannabinoids inhibit ABCC1.

Members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily exist in bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals and play key roles in the efflux of xenobiotic compounds, physiological substrates, and toxic intracellular metabolites. Based on sequence relatedness, mammalian ABC proteins have been divided into seven subfamilies, ABC subfamily A (ABCA) to ABCG. This review focuses on recent advances in our understanding of ABC transporters in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We propose a revised unified nomenclature for the six yeast ABC subfamilies to reflect the current mammalian designations ABCA to ABCG. In addition, we specifically review the well-studied yeast ABCC subfamily (formerly designated the MRP/CFTR subfamily), which includes six members (Ycf1p, Bpt1p, Ybt1p/Bat1p, Nft1p, Vmr1p, and Yor1p). We focus on Ycf1p, the best-characterized yeast ABCC transporter. Ycf1p is located in the vacuolar membrane in yeast and functions in a manner analogous to that of the human multidrug resistance-related protein (MRP1, also called ABCC1), mediating the transport of glutathione-conjugated toxic compounds. We review what is known about Ycf1p substrates, trafficking, processing, posttranslational modifications, regulation, and interactors. Finally, we discuss a powerful new yeast two-hybrid technology called integrated membrane yeast two-hybrid (iMYTH) technology, which was designed to identify interactors of membrane proteins. iMYTH technology has successfully identified novel interactors of Ycf1p and promises to be an invaluable tool in future efforts to comprehensively define the yeast ABC interactome.

Multidrug resistance-related protein 1 (MRP1 or ABCC1), a membrane-bound energy-dependent efflux transporter, is overexpressed in several kinds of multidrug-resistant cell lines and related to multidrug-resistance (MDR) of various cancers. In this study, we investigated whether MRP1 was involved in the chemoresistance of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC). We demonstrated that down-regulation of MRP1 in MC3/5FU, a drug-resistant MEC cell line, by RNA interference increased the drug sensitivity of the cells to 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, pharmorubicin, bleomycin-A5, cis-platinum and taxol. However, no significant quantitative difference of MRP1 mRNA and protein expression was found between MC3/5FU cells and its parental cell line (MC3) as determined by RT-PCR and Western blot. Interestingly, MRP1 was translocated from the cytoplasmic membrane of the MC3 cells to the nuclei of MC3/5FU cells as revealed by indirect immunofluorescence staining. Furthermore, MRP1 down-regulation mainly decreased the nuclear expression of MRP1 rather than the cytoplasmic membrane expression. Our results suggested that MRP1 was involved in the chemoresistance of MEC and MRP1 may confer drug-resistance by a mechanism associated with its nuclear translocation.

Breast cancer resistant protein (BCRP, ABCG2) is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, which together with two other ABC efflux drug pumps, namely P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and multidrug resistance-related protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) is the most important multidrug resistance protein foun d in eukaryotic cells including cells in the testis. However, unlike P-gp and MRP1, which are components of the Sertoli cell blood-testis barrier (BTB), BCRP is not expressed at the BTB in rodents and human testes. Instead, BCRP is expressed by peritubular myoid cells and endothelial cells of the lymphatic vessel in the tunica propria, residing outside the BTB. As such, the testis is equipped with two levels of defense against xenobiotics or drugs, preventing these harmful substances from entering the adluminal compartment to perturb meiosis and post-meiotic spermatid development: one at the level of the BTB conferred by P-gp and MRP1 and one at the tunica propria conferred by BCRP. The presence of drug transporters at the tunica propria as well as at the Sertoli cell BTB thus poses significant obstacles in developing non-hormonal contraceptives if these drugs (e.g., adjudin) exert their effects in germ cells behind the BTB, such as in the adluminal (apical) compartment of the seminiferous epithelium. Herein, we summarize recent findings pertinent to adjudin, a non-hormonal male contraceptive, and molecular interactions of adjudin with BCRP so that this information can be helpful to devise delivery strategies to evade BCRP in the tunica propria to improve its bioavailability in the testis.
