Extrapolation of Elementary Rate Constants of P-glycoprotein-Mediated Transport from MDCKII-hMDR1-NKI to Caco-2 Cells.
    Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 2017, Volume: 45, Issue:2

    The best parameters for incorporation into mechanistic physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for transporters are system-independent kinetic parameters and active (not total) transporter levels. Previously, we determined the elementary rate constants for P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated transport (on- and off-rate constants from membrane to P-gp binding pocket and efflux rate constant into the apical chamber) using the structural mass action kinetic model in confluent MDCKII-hMDR1-NKI cell monolayers. In the present work, we extended the kinetic analysis to Caco-2 cells for the first time and showed that the elementary rate constants are very similar compared with MDCKII-hMDR1-NKI cells, suggesting they primarily depend on the interaction of the compound with P-gp and are therefore mostly independent of the in vitro system used. The level of efflux active (not total) P-gp is also fitted by our model. The estimated level of efflux active P-gp was 5.0 ± 1.4-fold lower in Caco-2 cells than in MDCKII-hMDR1-NKI cells. We also kinetically identified the involvement of a basolateral uptake transporter for both digoxin and loperamide in Caco-2 cells, as found previously in MDCKII-hMDR1-NKI cells, due to their low passive permeability. This demonstrates the value of our P-gp structural model as a diagnostic tool in detecting the importance of other transporters, which cannot be unambiguously done by the Michaelis-Menten approach. The system-independent elementary rate constants for P-gp obtained in vitro are more fundamental parameters than those obtained using Michaelis-Menten steady-state equations. This suggests they will be more robust mechanistic parameters for incorporation into physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for transporters.

Transport inhibition of digoxin using several common P-gp expressing cell lines is not necessarily reporting only on inhibitor binding to P-gp.
    PloS one, 2013, Volume: 8, Issue:8

    We have reported that the P-gp substrate digoxin required basolateral and apical uptake transport in excess of that allowed by digoxin passive permeability (as measured in the presence of GF120918) to achieve the observed efflux kinetics across MDCK-MDR1-NKI (The Netherlands Cancer Institute) confluent cell monolayers. That is, GF120918 inhibitable uptake transport was kinetically required. Therefore, IC50 measurements using digoxin as a probe substrate in this cell line could be due to inhibition of P-gp, of digoxin uptake transport, or both. This kinetic analysis is now extended to include three additional cell lines: MDCK-MDR1-NIH (National Institute of Health), Caco-2 and CPT-B2 (Caco-2 cells with BCRP knockdown). These cells similarly exhibit GF120918 inhibitable uptake transport of digoxin. We demonstrate that inhibition of digoxin transport across these cell lines by GF120918, cyclosporine, ketoconazole and verapamil is greater than can be explained by inhibition of P-gp alone. We examined three hypotheses for this non-P-gp inhibition. The inhibitors can: (1) bind to a basolateral digoxin uptake transporter, thereby inhibiting digoxin's cellular uptake; (2) partition into the basolateral membrane and directly reduce membrane permeability; (3) aggregate with digoxin in the donor chamber, thereby reducing the free concentration of digoxin, with concomitant reduction in digoxin uptake. Data and simulations show that hypothesis 1 was found to be uniformly acceptable. Hypothesis 2 was found to be uniformly unlikely. Hypothesis 3 was unlikely for GF120918 and cyclosporine, but further studies are needed to completely adjudicate whether hetero-dimerization contributes to the non-P-gp inhibition for ketoconazole and verapamil. We also find that P-gp substrates with relatively low passive permeability such as digoxin, loperamide and vinblastine kinetically require basolateral uptake transport over that allowed by +GF120918 passive permeability, while highly permeable P-gp substrates such as amprenavir, quinidine, ketoconazole and verapamil do not, regardless of whether they actually use the basolateral transporter.

Fitting the elementary rate constants of the P-gp transporter network in the hMDR1-MDCK confluent cell monolayer using a particle swarm algorithm.
    PloS one, 2011, Volume: 6, Issue:10

    P-glycoprotein, a human multidrug resistance transporter, has been extensively studied due to its importance to human health and disease. In order to understand transport kinetics via P-gp, confluent cell monolayers overexpressing P-gp are widely used. The purpose of this study is to obtain the mass action elementary rate constants for P-gp's transport and to functionally characterize members of P-gp's network, i.e., other transporters that transport P-gp substrates in hMDR1-MDCKII confluent cell monolayers and are essential to the net substrate flux. Transport of a range of concentrations of amprenavir, loperamide, quinidine and digoxin across the confluent monolayer of cells was measured in both directions, apical to basolateral and basolateral to apical. We developed a global optimization algorithm using the Particle Swarm method that can simultaneously fit all datasets to yield accurate and exhaustive fits of these elementary rate constants. The statistical sensitivity of the fitted values was determined by using 24 identical replicate fits, yielding simple averages and standard deviations for all of the kinetic parameters, including the efflux active P-gp surface density. Digoxin required additional basolateral and apical transporters, while loperamide required just a basolateral tranporter. The data were better fit by assuming bidirectional transporters, rather than active importers, suggesting that they are not MRP or active OATP transporters. The P-gp efflux rate constants for quinidine and digoxin were about 3-fold smaller than reported ATP hydrolysis rate constants from P-gp proteoliposomes. This suggests a roughly 3∶1 stoichiometry between ATP hydrolysis and P-gp transport for these two drugs. The fitted values of the elementary rate constants for these P-gp substrates support the hypotheses that the selective pressures on P-gp are to maintain a broad substrate range and to keep xenobiotics out of the cytosol, but not out of the apical membrane.

Kinetic identification of membrane transporters that assist P-glycoprotein-mediated transport of digoxin and loperamide through a confluent monolayer of MDCKII-hMDR1 cells.
    Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 2008, Volume: 36, Issue:2

    A robust screen for compound interaction with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) has some obvious requirements, such as a cell line expressing P-gp and a probe substrate that is transported solely by P-gp and passive permeability. It is actually difficult to prove that a particular probe substrate interacts only with P-gp in the chosen cell line. Using a confluent monolayer of MDCKII-hMDR1 cells, we have determined the elementary rate constants for the P-gp efflux of amprenavir, digoxin, loperamide, and quinidine. For amprenavir and quinidine, transport was fitted with just P-gp and passive permeability. For digoxin and loperamide, fitting required a basolateral transporter (p < 0.01), which was inhibited by the P-gp inhibitor N-(4-[2-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dimethoxy-2-isoquinolinyl)ethyl]-phenyl)-9,10-dihydro-5-methoxy-9-oxo-4-acridine carboxamide (GF120918). This means that when digoxin is used as a probe substrate and a compound is shown to inhibit digoxin flux, it could be that the inhibition occurs at the basolateral transporter rather than at P-gp. Digoxin basolateral>apical efflux also required an apical importer (p < 0.05). We propose that amprenavir and quinidine are robust probe substrates for assessing P-gp interactions using the MDCKII-hMDR1 confluent cell monolayer. Usage of another cell line, e.g., LLC-hMDR1 or Caco-2, would require the same kinetic validation to ensure that the probe substrate interacts only with P-gp. Attempts to identify the additional digoxin and loperamide transporters using a wide range of substrates/inhibitors of known epithelial transporters (organic cation transporters, organic anion transporters, organic ion-transporting polypeptide, uric acid transporter, or multidrug resistance-associated protein) failed to inhibit the digoxin or loperamide transport through their basolateral transporter.
