Peroxynitrite was demonstrated to inhibit the active efflux of glutathione S-conjugates (2,4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione and bimane-S-glutathione) from human erythrocytes and the erythrocyte membrane ATPase activity stimulated by glutathione S-conjugates. As the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) is responsible for the transport of glutathione S-conjugates in mammalian cells, these results point to the possibility of the effect of peroxynitrite on the MRP function.

Molecular masses of functional units of two components of 2, 4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione (DNP-SG) transport across the erythrocyte membrane determined by radiation inactivation were 437 +/- 69 kDa for the high-affinity component and 466 +/- 67 kDa for the low-affinity component. These results confirm that the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 1 is responsible for the high-affinity DNP-SG transport across the erythrocyte membrane and suggest that MRP1 exists in the membrane as a dimer. The molecular size of the low-affinity transporter is similar if not identical to that of MRP1. Moreover, while the molecular mass of the DNP-SG-ATPase activity of the erythrocyte membrane corresponds also to that of MRP (375 +/- 36 kDa), the molecular mass of the functional unit of dinitrophenol-stimulated ATPase is significantly lower (232 +/- 26 kDa), which suggests that thisactivity is linked to a different protein, perhapsaminophospholipid translocase.

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.

Multidrug resistance (MDR), caused by overexpression of either P-glycoprotein or the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP), is characterized by a decreased cellular drug accumulation due to an enhanced drug efflux. Many studies on cells overexpressing MRP and/or Pgp, have shown a concentration of the drug inside cytoplasmic acidic vesicles followed by an exocytotic process. In this study, we examined the effects of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole or NBD (a H+-ATPase pump inhibitor), buthionine sulphoximine or BSO (an inhibitor of glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis) and verapamil or VPL (a calcium channel blocker) on the subcellular distribution of daunorubicin or DNR in K562 cells overexpressing MRP (K-H30) and Pgp (K-H300) and A549 cells overexpressing spontaneously MRP. Nucleo-cytoplasmic distribution of DNR was carried out using scanning confocal microspectrofluorometry. This technique allows determination of nuclear accumulation of anthracyclines. Our results show that nuclear accumulation of DNR in K-H30 and A549 cells was increased by NBD, BSO and VPL while in K-H300 cells, only VPL was able to increase nuclear accumulation of DNR. Similarly, NBD, BSO and VPL could reverse DNR resistance in K-H30 cells whereas, in K-H300 cells, only VPL increased the sensitivity of these cells. These data suggest a requirement for GSH in MRP-mediated resistance and suggest that even if vesicular sequestration can happen in cells overexpressing MRP and Pgp proteins, probably only the MRP protein is able to extrude the drug through intracellular vesicles and efflux. Finally, NBD and BSO might be a useful agents in facilitating discrimination between Pgp and MRP phenotypes and prognosis in patients.

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.

An Ehrlich ascites tumour cell line (EHR2) was selected for resistance to etoposide (VP16) by in vivo exposure to this agent. The resulting cell line (EHR2/VP16) was 114.3-, 5.7-, and 4.0-fold resistant to VP16, daunorubicin, and vincristine, respectively. The amount of salt-extractable immunoreactive topoisomerase IIalpha and beta in EHR2/VP16 was reduced by 30-40% relative to that in EHR2. The multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) mRNA was increased 20-fold in EHR2/VP16 as compared with EHR2, whereas the expression of P-glycoprotein was unchanged. In EHR2/VP16, the steady-state accumulation of [(3)H]VP16 and daunorubicin was reduced by 64% and 17%, respectively, as compared with EHR2. Deprivation of energy by addition of sodium azide increased the accumulation of both drugs to the level of sensitive cells. When glycolysis was restored by the addition of glucose to EHR2/VP16 cells loaded with drug in the presence of sodium azide, extrusion of [(3)H]VP16 and daunorubicin was induced. Addition of verapamil (25 microM) decreased the efflux of daunorubicin to the level of sensitive cells, but had only a moderate effect on the efflux of [(3)H]VP16. The resistant cells showed moderate sensitisation to VP16 on treatment with verapamil, whereas cyclosporin A had no effect. Compared with that of sensitive cells, the ATPase activity of plasma membrane vesicles prepared from EHR2/VP16 cells was very low. Vanadate inhibited the ATPase activity of EHR2/VP16 microsomes with a K(i) value of 30 microM. ATPase activity was slightly stimulated by daunorubicin, whereas vinblastine, verapamil, and cyclosporin A had no effect. In conclusion, development of resistance to VP16 in EHR2 is accompanied by a significant reduction in topoisomerase II (alpha and beta) and by increased expression of MRP mRNA (20-fold). MRP displays several points of resemblance to P-glycoprotein in its mode of action: 1) like P-glycoprotein, MRP causes resistance to a range of hydrophobic drugs; 2) MRP decreases drug accumulation in the cells and this decrease is abolished by omission of energy; and 3) MRP increases efflux of drug from cells. However, compared with that of P-glycoprotein-positive cells, the ATPase activity of MRP-positive cells is found to be low and not able to be stimulated by verapamil.

The 190-kDa multidrug resistance protein MRP1 (ABCC1) is a polytopic transmembrane protein belonging to the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily. In addition to conferring resistance to various antineoplastic agents, MRP1 is a transporter of conjugated organic anions, including the cysteinyl leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)). We previously characterized the ATPase activity of reconstituted immunoaffinity-purified native MRP1 and showed it could be stimulated by its organic anion substrates (Mao, Q., Leslie, E. M., Deeley, R. G., and Cole, S. P. C. (1999) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1461, 69-82). Here we show that purified reconstituted MRP1 is also capable of active transport of its substrates. Thus LTC(4) uptake by MRP1 proteoliposomes was osmotically sensitive and could be inhibited by two MRP1-specific monoclonal antibodies. LTC(4) uptake was also markedly reduced by the competitive inhibitor, S-decyl-glutathione, as well as by the MRP1 substrates 17 beta-estradiol 17-beta-(d-glucuronide), oxidized glutathione, and vincristine in the presence of reduced glutathione. The K(m) for ATP and LTC(4) were 357 +/- 184 microm and 366 +/- 38 nm, respectively, and 2.14 +/- 0.75 microm for 17 beta-estradiol 17-beta-(d-glucuronide). Transport of vincristine required the presence of both ATP and GSH. Conversely, GSH transport was stimulated by vincristine and verapamil. Our data represent the first reconstitution of transport competent purified native MRP1 and confirm that MRP1 is an efflux pump, which can transport conjugated organic anions and co-transport vincristine together with GSH.

Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). This protein belongs to the large ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family of transporters. Most patients with cystic fibrosis bear a mutation in the nucleotide-binding domain 1 (NBD1) of CFTR, which plays a key role in the activation of the channel function of CFTR. Determination of the three dimensional structure of NBD1 is essential to better understand its structure-function relationship, and relate it to the biological features of CFTR. In this paper, we report the first preparation of recombinant His-tagged NBD1, as a soluble, stable and isolated domain. The method avoids the use of renaturing processes or fusion constructs. ATPase activity assays show that the recombinant domain is functional. Using tryptophan intrinsic fluorescence, we point out that the local conformation, in the region of the most frequent mutation DeltaF508, could differ from that of the nucleotide-binding subunit of histidine permease, the only available ABC structure. We have undertaken three dimensional structure determination of NBD1, and the first two dimensional 15N-1H NMR spectra demonstrate that the domain is folded. The method should be applicable to the structural studies of NBD2 or of other NBDs from different ABC proteins of major biological interest, such as multidrug resistance protein 1 or multidrug resistance associated protein 1.

Conditionally immortalized brain and retinal capillary endothelial and choroid plexus epithelial cell lines were established from a transgenic rat (Tg rat) and mouse (Tg mouse) harboring the temperature-sensitive simian virus 40 (ts SV 40) large T-antigen. These cell lines exhibit temperature-sensitive cell growth due to the expression of ts SV 40 large T-antigen. Mouse brain (TM-BBB) and rat brain (TR-BBB) and rat retinal (TR-iBRB) capillary endothelial cell lines appear to have a spindle-fiber shaped morphology and exhibit the typical endothelial markers, such as von Willebrand factor and acetylated low-density lipoprotein uptake. These cell lines express in vivo influx and efflux transporters, such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and GLUT1, which is capable of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose transport. TM-BBB cells are able to undergo efflux transport of cyclosporin A, which is a substrate for P-gp transport activity. They may also express oatp2 and exhibit dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and digoxin uptake activity. TR-BBB cells express the mRNA of multidrug resistance associated protein 1 (MRP1) and a large neutral amino acid transporter, which consists of LAT1 and 4F2hc. TR-iBRB cells exhibit pH-dependent L-lactic acid transport activity and express the mRNA of monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) 1 and 2. The choroid plexus epithelial cell line (TR-CSFB) has polygonal cell morphology, expresses the typical choroid plexus epithelial cell marker, transthyretin, and has Na+, K+-ATPase located on the apical side. TR-CSFB cells also exhibit amino acid transport activity which has been observed in vivo. These barrier cell lines established from the Tg rat and Tg mouse have in vivo transport functions and are good in vitro models for drug transport to the brain and retina and as a screen for drugs which might be capable of delivery to the brain and retina.

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.
