Atenolol Renal Secretion Is Mediated by Human Organic Cation Transporter 2 and Multidrug and Toxin Extrusion Proteins.

ABSTRACT: Atenolol is a ?-blocker widely used in the treatment of hypertension. Atenolol is cleared predominantly by the kidney by both glomerular filtration and active secretion, but the molecular mechanisms involved in its renal secretion are unclear. Using a panel of human embryonic kidney cell lines stably expressing human organic cation transporter (hOCT) 1-3, human organic anion transporter (hOAT) 1, hOAT3, human multidrug and toxin extrusion protein (hMATE) 1, and hMATE2-K, we found that atenolol interacted with both organic cation and anion transporters. However, it is transported by hOCT1, hOCT2, hMATE1, and hMATE2-K, but not by hOCT3, hOAT1, and hOAT3. A detailed kinetic analysis coupled with absolute quantification of membrane transporter proteins by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry revealed that atenolol is an excellent substrate for the renal transporters hOCT2, hMATE1, and hMATE2-K. The Km values for hOCT2, hMATE1, and hMATE2-K are 280 ± 4, 32 ± 5, and 76 ± 14 ?M, respectively, and the calculated turnover numbers are 2.76, 0.41, and 2.20 s(-1), respectively. To demonstrate unidirectional transepithelial transport of atenolol, we developed and functionally validated a hOCT2/hMATE1 double-transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cell culture model. Transwell studies showed that atenolol transport in the basal (B)-to-apical (A) direction is 27-fold higher than in the A-to-B direction, whereas its B-to-A/A-to-B transport ratio was only 2 in the vector-transfected control cells. The overall permeability of atenolol in the B-to-A direction in hOCT2/hMATE1 cells was 44-fold higher than in control cells. Together, our data support that atenolol tubular secretion is mediated through the hOCT2/hMATEs secretion pathway and suggest a significant role of organic cation transporters in the disposition of an important antihypertensive drug.

Project description:Background and Aims: Metformin is the most widely-used anti-diabetic drug in the United States. However, medication management fails to achieve therapeutic goals in ~20% of patients. This study attempted to identify genetic polymorphisms associated with metformin treatment failure. We studied the associations between polymorphisms in two liver and kidney organic cation transporter genes (OCT1 & OCT2) and two kidney multidrug and toxin extrusion transporter genes, (MATE1 & MATE2K) and response to metformin monotherapy. Methods: At Kaiser Permanente Southeast and Marshfield Clinic Research Foundation we identified 304 type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients on metformin monotherapy who: were enrolled for >=6 months prior to initiation; remained on metformin >= 90 days following initiation; and had a HgbA1c measured prior to first metformin prescription and then after initiation. From this group we selected 171 patients who had not received metformin or other anti-diabetics previously, and had baseline HbA1c levels >7.0% prior to metformin initiation. We genotyped 10 SNPs, and assessed response by measuring absolute and relative change in HbA1c after after metformin initiation. Results: Three SNPs were identified that were significantly associated with reduced response to metformin, after adjustment for baseline HbA1c, dose, and ethnicity. In a dominant model, heterozygosity or homozygosity for minor A allele in the MATE1 intronic SNP, rs2289669, resulted in a smaller absolute change in HbA1c (mean of 0.45% less reduction in absolute change in HbA1c; 95% CI 0.17 to 0.74%) compared to individuals homozygous for major G allele. In a recessive model, homozygosity for minor A allele in MATE2K 5′-UTR SNP, rs12943590, resulted in smaller absolute change in HbA1c (mean of 0.43% less reduction in absolute change in HbA1c, 95% CI 0.053 to 0.86%). The reduced function SNPs in OCT1 & OCT2 were not associated with metformin response, except for rs34059508 (G465R). This SNP showed a positive (but not statistically significant) association with smaller absolute change in HbA1c (mean of 0.49%; 95% CI −0.06354 to 1.045%). Conclusions: These three variants of metformin transporter genes may be important for personalizing treatment for patients with T2DM. A replication study in a larger population is currently being planned.
