Regulation of Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptides (OATP) 1B1- and OATP1B3-Mediated Transport: An Updated Review in the Context of OATP-Mediated Drug-Drug Interactions.

ABSTRACT: Organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and OATP1B3 are important hepatic transporters that mediate the uptake of many clinically important drugs, including statins from the blood into the liver. Reduced transport function of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 can lead to clinically relevant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Considering the importance of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 in hepatic drug disposition, substantial efforts have been given on evaluating OATP1B1/1B3-mediated DDIs in order to avoid unwanted adverse effects of drugs that are OATP substrates due to their altered pharmacokinetics. Growing evidences suggest that the transport function of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 can be regulated at various levels such as genetic variation, transcriptional and post-translational regulation. The present review summarizes the up to date information on the regulation of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 transport function at different levels with a focus on potential impact on OATP-mediated DDIs.

Project description:Organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 mediates the hepatic uptake of many drugs including lipid-lowering statins. Decreased OATP1B1 transport activity is often associated with increased systemic exposure of statins and statin-induced myopathy. Antimalarial drug chloroquine (CQ) is also used for long-term treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. CQ is lysosomotropic and inhibits protein degradation in lysosomes. The current studies were designed to determine the effects of CQ on OATP1B1 protein degradation, OATP1B1-mediated transport in OATP1B1-overexpressing cell line, and statin uptake in human sandwich-cultured hepatocytes (SCH). Treatment with lysosome inhibitor CQ increased OATP1B1 total protein levels in HEK293-OATP1B1 cells and in human SCH as determined by OATP1B1 immunoblot. In HEK293-FLAG-tagged OATP1B1 stable cell line, co-immunofluorescence staining indicated that intracellular FLAG-OATP1B1 is colocalized with lysosomal associated membrane glycoprotein (LAMP)-2, a marker protein of late endosome/lysosome. Enlarged LAMP-2-positive vacuoles with FLAG-OATP1B1 protein retained inside were readily detected in CQ-treated cells, consistent with blocking lysosomal degradation of OATP1B1 by CQ. In HEK293-OATP1B1 cells, without pre-incubation, CQ concentrations up to 100 μM did not affect OATP1B1-mediated [(3)H]E217G accumulation. However, pre-incubation with CQ at clinically relevant concentration(s) significantly decreased [(3)H]E217G and [(3)H]pitavastatin accumulation in HEK293-OATP1B1 cells and [(3)H]pitavastatin accumulation in human SCH. CQ pretreatment (25 μM, 2 h) resulted in ∼1.9-fold decrease in Vmax without affecting Km of OATP1B1-mediated [(3)H]E217G transport in HEK293-OATP1B1 cells. Pretreatment with monensin and bafilomycin A1, which also have lysosome inhibition activity, significantly decreased OATP1B1-mediated transport in HEK293-OATP1B1 cells. Pharmacoepidemiologic studies using data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System indicated that CQ plus pitavastatin, rosuvastatin, and pravastatin, which are minimally metabolized by the cytochrome P450 enzymes, led to higher myopathy risk than these statins alone. In summary, the present studies report novel findings that lysosome is involved in degradation of OATP1B1 protein and that pre-incubation with lysosomotropic drug CQ downregulates OATP1B1 transport activity. Our in vitro data in combination with pharmacoepidemiologic studies support that CQ has potential to cause OATP-mediated drug-drug interactions.

Project description:Hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptides-OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1-are expressed at the basolateral membrane of hepatocytes, being responsible for the uptake of a wide range of natural substrates and structurally unrelated pharmaceuticals. Impaired function of hepatic OATPs has been linked to clinically relevant drug-drug interactions leading to altered pharmacokinetics of administered drugs. Therefore, understanding the commonalities and differences across the three transporters represents useful knowledge to guide the drug discovery process at an early stage. Unfortunately, such efforts remain challenging because of the lack of experimentally resolved protein structures for any member of the OATP family. In this study, we established a rigorous computational protocol to generate and validate structural models for hepatic OATPs. The multistep procedure is based on the systematic exploration of available protein structures with shared protein folding using normal-mode analysis, the calculation of multiple template backbones from elastic network models, the utilization of multiple template conformations to generate OATP structural models with various degrees of conformational flexibility, and the prioritization of models on the basis of enrichment docking. We employed the resulting OATP models of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 to elucidate binding modes of steroid analogs in the three transporters. Steroid conjugates have been recognized as endogenous substrates of these transporters. Thus, investigating this data set delivers insights into mechanisms of substrate recognition. In silico predictions were complemented with in vitro studies measuring the bioactivity of a compound set on OATP expressing cell lines. Important structural determinants conferring shared and distinct binding patterns of steroid analogs in the three transporters have been identified. Overall, this comparative study provides novel insights into hepatic OATP-ligand interactions and selectivity. Furthermore, the integrative computational workflow for structure-based modeling can be leveraged for other pharmaceutical targets of interest.
