Research Abstract |
We have investigated the function of transporters responsible for the Hepatic uptake (organic anion transporting polypeptide 2 ; OATP2/SLC21A6) and biliary excretion (multidrug resistance associated protein 2 ; MRP2/ABCC2). Concerning OATP2/SLC21A6 we have examined the transport properties of several substrates by using HEK 293 cells Stably expressing the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) mutants. It was suggested that the OATP2/SLC21A6 SNPs which are frequently observed in Orientals may be associated with the alterations in the kinetic parameters for the transport of certain kinds of ligands. Concerning MRP2/ABCC2, we could suggest the amino acid residues which are important in the substrate transport by using the site-directed mutagenesis method. A novel MRP2/ABCC2 mutation was found in Orientals. In addition, by using the cell lines established from the Japanese cancer patients, we found many kinds of novel mutations, along with the linkage of the mutations in MRP2/ABCC2. Moreover, by using an Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line which stably expresses OATP2/SLC21A6 and MRP2/ABCC2 on the basal and apical membranes, respectively, we have performed the precise kinetic analysis for the transcellular transport, the basal uptake, and the apical efflux, and could suggest that it may be possible for us to predict the drug disposition in mutated subjects by examining the in vitro disposition of ligands in MDCK cell monolayer expressing the mutated transporters.
