ABSTRACTAccording to the 2012 WHO global tuberculosis (TB) report (http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/10665/75938/1/9789241564502_eng.pdf), the death rate for tuberculosis was over 1.4 million patients in 2011, with ∼9 million new cases diagnosed. Moreover, the frequency of comorbidity with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and with diabetes is on the rise, increasing the risk of these patients for experiencing drug-drug interactions (DDIs) due to polypharmacy. Ethambutol is considered a first-line antituberculosis drug. Ethambutol is an organic cation at physiological pH, and its major metabolite, 2,2′-(ethylenediimino)dibutyric acid (EDA), is zwitterionic. Therefore, we assessed the effects of ethambutol and EDA on the function of human organic cation transporter 1 (hOCT1), hOCT2, and hOCT3 and that of EDA on organic anion transporter 1 (hOAT1) and hOAT3. Potent inhibition of hOCT1- and hOCT2-mediated transport by ethambutol (50% inhibitory concentration [IC50] = 92.6 ± 10.9 and 253.8 ± 90.8 μM, respectively) was observed. Ethambutol exhibited much weaker inhibition of hOCT3 (IC50= 4.1 ± 1.6 mM); however, significant inhibition (>80%) was observed at physiologically relevant concentrations in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after oral dosing. EDA failed to exhibit any inhibitory effects that warranted further investigation. DDI analysis indicated a strong potential for ethambutol interaction on hOCT1 expressed in enterocytes and hepatocytes and on hOCT3 in enterocytes, which would alter absorption, distribution, and excretion of coadministered cationic drugs, suggesting thatin vivopharmacokinetic studies are necessary to confirm drug safety and efficacy. In particular, TB patients with coexisting HIV or diabetes might experience significant DDIs in situations of coadministration of ethambutol and clinical therapeutics known to be hOCT1/hOCT3 substrates (e.g., lamivudine or metformin).

Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is the most widely used thiazide diuretic for the treatment of hypertension either alone or in combination with other antihypertensives. HCTZ is mainly cleared by the kidney via tubular secretion, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Using cells stably expressing major renal organic anion and cation transporters [human organic anion transporter 1 (hOAT1), human organic anion transporter 3 (hOAT3), human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2), human multidrug and toxin extrusion 1 (hMATE1), and human multidrug and toxin extrusion 2-K (hMATE2-K)], we found that HCTZ interacted with both organic cation and anion transporters. Uptake experiments further showed that HCTZ is transported by hOAT1, hOAT3, hOCT2, and hMATE2-K but not by hMATE1. Detailed kinetic analysis coupled with quantification of membrane transporter proteins by targeted proteomics revealed that HCTZ is an excellent substrate for hOAT1 and hOAT3. The apparent affinities ( Km) for hOAT1 and hOAT3 were 112 ± 8 and 134 ± 13 μM, respectively, and the calculated turnover numbers ( kcat) were 2.48 and 0.79 s−1, respectively. On the other hand, hOCT2 and hMATE2-K showed much lower affinity for HCTZ. The calculated transport efficiency ( kcat/ Km) at the single transporter level followed the rank order of hOAT1> hOAT3 > hOCT2 and hMATE2-K, suggesting a major role of organic anion transporters in tubular secretion of HCTZ. In vitro inhibition experiments further suggested that HCTZ is not a clinically relevant inhibitor for hOAT1 or hOAT3. However, strong in vivo inhibitors of hOAT1/3 may alter renal secretion of HCTZ. Together, our study elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying renal handling of HCTZ and revealed potential pathways involved in the disposition and drug-drug interactions for this important antihypertensive drug in the kidney.

BackgroundHerb-drug interactions (HDIs) resulting from concomitant use of herbal products with clinical drugs may cause adverse reactions. Organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and 3 (OAT3) are highly expressed in the kidney and play a key role in the renal elimination of substrate drugs. So far, little is known about the herbal extracts that could modulate OAT1 and OAT3 activities.MethodsHEK293 cells stably expressing human OAT1 (HEK-OAT1) and OAT3 (HEK-OAT3) were established and characterized. One hundred seventy-two extracts from 37 medicinal and economic plants were prepared. An initial concentration of 5 µg/ml for each extract was used to evaluate their effects on 6-carboxylfluorescein (6-CF) uptake in HEK-OAT1 and HEK-OAT3 cells. Concentration-dependent inhibition studies were conducted for those extracts with more than 50% inhibition to OAT1 and OAT3. The extract ofJuncus effusus, a well-known traditional Chinese medicine, was assessed for its effect on thein vivopharmacokinetic parameters of furosemide, a diuretic drug which is a known substrate of both OAT1 and OAT3.ResultsMore than 30% of the plant extracts at the concentration of 5 µg/ml showed strong inhibitory effect on the 6-CF uptake mediated by OAT1 (61 extracts) and OAT3 (55 extracts). Among them, three extracts for OAT1 and fourteen extracts for OAT3 were identified as strong inhibitors with IC50values being <5 µg/ml.Juncus effususshowed a strong inhibition to OAT3in vitro, and markedly altered thein vivopharmacokinetic parameters of furosemide in rats.ConclusionThe present study identified the potential interactions of medicinal and economic plants with human OAT1 and OAT3, which is helpful to predict and to avoid potential OAT1- and OAT3-mediated HDIs.

Salvia miltiorrhizaroot (Danshen) is widely used in Asia for its cardiovascular benefits and contains both hydrophilic phenolic acids and lipophilic tanshinones, which are believed to be responsible for its therapeutic efficacy. This review summarized the effects of these bioactive components fromS. miltiorrhizaroots on pharmacokinetics of comedicated drugs with mechanic insights regarding alterations of protein binding, enzyme activity, and transporter activity based on the published data stemming from bothin vitroandin vivohuman studies.In vitrostudies indicated that cytochrome P450 (CYP450), carboxylesterase enzyme, catechol-O-methyltransferase, organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and OAT3, and P-glycoprotein were the major targets involved inS. miltiorrhiza-drug interactions. Lipophilic tanshinones had much more potent inhibitory effects towards CYPs activities compared to hydrophilic phenolic acids, evidenced by much lowerKivalues of the former. ClinicalS. miltiorrhiza-drug interaction studies were mainly conducted using CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 probe substrates. In addition, the effects of coexisting components on the pharmacokinetic behaviors of those noted bioactive compounds were also included herein.

ABSTRACTThe substrate potentials of antituberculosis drugs on solute carrier (SLC) transporters are not well characterized to date, despite a well-established understanding of their drug dispositions and pharmacokinetics. In this study, we investigated comprehensively the substrate potentials of the 22 currently available antituberculosis drugs for SLC family transporter-mediated uptake, usingXenopus laevisoocytes and stably transfected HEK-293 cellsin vitro. The result suggested that ethambutol, isoniazid, amoxicillin, and prothionamide act as novel substrates for the SLC transporters. In addition, in the presence of representative transporter inhibitors, the uptake of the antituberculosis drugs was markedly decreased compared with the uptake in the absence of inhibitor, suggesting involvement of the corresponding transporters. A cellular uptake study was performed, and theKmvalues of ethambutol were found to be 526.1 ± 15.6, 212.0 ± 20.1, 336.8 ± 20.1, and 455.0 ± 28 μM for organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1), OCT2, OCTN1, and OCTN2, respectively. Similarly, theKmof prothionamide was 805.8 ± 23.4 μM for OCT1, while theKmvalues of isoniazid and amoxicillin for organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3) were 233.7 ± 14.1 and 161.4 ± 10.6 μM, respectively. The estimatedin vivodrug-drug interaction indexes fromin vitrotransporter inhibition kinetics for verapamil, probenecid, and ibuprofen against ethambutol, prothionamide, isoniazid, and amoxicillin were found to show potential for clinical drug interactions. In conclusion, this is the first study that demonstrated 22 antituberculosis drug interactions with transporters. This study will be helpful for mechanistic understanding of the disposition, drug-drug interactions, and pharmacokinetics of these antituberculosis drugs.

Islatravir (MK-8591) is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase translocation inhibitor in development for the treatment and prevention of HIV-1. The potential for islatravir to interact with commonly co-prescribed medications was studied in vitro. Elimination of islatravir is expected to be balanced between adenosine deaminase–mediated metabolism and renal excretion. Islatravir did not inhibit uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 or cytochrome p450 (CYP) enzymes CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, or 3A4, nor did it induce CYP1A2, 2B6, or 3A4. Islatravir did not inhibit hepatic transporters organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, OATP1B3, organic cation transporter (OCT) 1, bile salt export pump (BSEP), multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 2, MRP3, or MRP4. Islatravir was neither a substrate nor a significant inhibitor of renal transporters organic anion transporter (OAT) 1, OAT3, OCT2, multidrug and toxin extrusion protein (MATE) 1, or MATE2K. Islatravir did not significantly inhibit P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP); however, it was a substrate of BCRP, which is not expected to be of clinical significance. These findings suggest islatravir is unlikely to be the victim or perpetrator of drug-drug interactions with commonly co-prescribed medications, including statins, diuretics, anti-diabetic drugs, proton pump inhibitors, anticoagulants, benzodiazepines, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

APINACA (known as AKB48, N-(1-adamantyl)-1-pentyl-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide), an indazole carboxamide synthetic cannabinoid, has been used worldwide as a new psychoactive substance. Drug abusers take various drugs concomitantly, and therefore, it is necessary to characterize the potential of APINACA-induced drug–drug interactions due to the modulation of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. In this study, the inhibitory effects of APINACA on eight major human cytochrome P450s (CYPs) and six uridine 5′-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) in human liver microsomes, as well as on the transport activities of six solute carrier transporters and two efflux transporters in transporter-overexpressed cells, were investigated. APINACA exhibited time-dependent inhibition of CYP3A4-mediated midazolam 1′-hydroxylation (Ki, 4.5 µM; kinact, 0.04686 min−1) and noncompetitive inhibition of UGT1A9-mediated mycophenolic acid glucuronidation (Ki, 5.9 µM). APINACA did not significantly inhibit the CYPs 1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8/9/19, or 2D6 or the UGTs 1A1, 1A3, 1A4, 1A6, or 2B7 at concentrations up to 100 µM. APINACA did not significantly inhibit the transport activities of organic anion transporter (OAT)1, OAT3, organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, OATP1B3, organic cation transporter (OCT)1, OCT2, P-glycoprotein, or breast cancer resistance protein at concentrations up to 250 μM. These data suggest that APINACA can cause drug interactions in the clinic via the inhibition of CYP3A4 or UGT1A9 activities.

The consumption of Chinese herbal medicines (CHMs) is increasing exponentially. Many patients utilize CHMs concomitantly with prescription drugs in great frequency. Herb-drug interaction has hence become an important focus of study. Transporter-mediated herb-drug interactions have the potential to seriously influence drug efficacy and toxicity. Since organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) is crucial in renal active secretion and drug-drug interactions, the possibility of modulation of OAT1-mediated drug transport should be seriously concerned. Sixty-three clinically used CHMs were evaluated in the study. An hOAT1-overexpressing cell line was used for thein vitroCHMs screening, and the effective candidates were administered to Wistar rats to access renal hemodynamics. The regulation of OAT1 mRNA expression was also examined for further evidence of CHMs affecting OAT1-mediated transport. Among all the 63 CHMs, formulae Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan (GZ) and Chia Wei Hsiao Yao San (CW) exhibited significant inhibitions on hOAT1-mediated [3H]-PAH uptakein vitroand PAH clearance and net secretionin vivo. Moreover, GZ showed concentration-dependent manners bothin vitroandin vivo, and the decrease of rOAT1 mRNA expression indicated that GZ not only inhibited function of OAT1 but also suppressed expression of OAT1.
