Full textAbstract:
Bile acids are steroidal amphipathic molecules derived from the catabolism of cholesterol. They modulate bile flow and lipid secretion, are essential for the absorption of dietary fats and vitamins, and have been implicated in the regulation of all the key enzymes involved in cholesterol homeostasis. Bile acids recirculate through the liver, bile ducts, small intestine and portal vein to form an enterohepatic circuit. They exist as anions at physiological pH and, consequently, require a carrier for transport across the membranes of the enterohepatic tissues. Individual bile acid carriers have now been cloned from several species. Na(+)-dependent transporters that mediate uptake into hepatocytes and reabsorption from the intestine and biliary epithelium and an ATP-dependent transporter that pumps bile acids into bile comprise the classes of transporter that are specific for bile acids. In addition, at least four human and five rat genes that code for Na(+)-independent organic anion carriers with broad multi-substrate specificities that include bile acids have been discovered. Studies concerning the regulation of these carriers have permitted identification of molecular signals that dictate eventual changes in the uptake or excretion of bile acids, which in turn have profound physiological implications. This overview summarizes and compares all known bile acid transporters and highlights findings that have identified diseases linked to molecular defects in these carriers. Recent advances that have fostered a more complete appreciation for the elaborate disposition of bile acids in humans are emphasized.

Background:Drug-induced Liver Injury (DILI) has received increasing attention over the past decades, as it represents the leading cause of drug failure and attrition. One of the most prevalent and severe forms of DILI involves the toxic accumulation of bile acids in the liver, known as Drug-induced Cholestasis (DIC). Traditionally, DIC is studied by exploring the inhibition of hepatic transporters such as Bile Salt Export Pump (BSEP) and multidrug resistance-associated proteins, predominantly through vesicular transport assays. Although this approach has identified numerous drugs that alter bile flow, many DIC drugs do not demonstrate prototypical transporter inhibition, but rather are associated with alternative mechanisms.Methods:We undertook a focused literature search on DIC and biliary transporters and analyzed peer-reviewed publications over the past two decades or so.Results:We have summarized the current perception regarding DIC, biliary transporters, and transcriptional regulation of bile acid homeostasis. A growing body of literature aimed to identify alternative mechanisms in the development of DIC has been evaluated. This review also highlights current in vitro approaches used for prediction of DIC.Conclusion:Efforts have continued to focus on BSEP, as it is the primary route for hepatic biliary clearance. In addition to inhibition, drug-induced BSEP repression or the combination of these two has emerged as important alternative mechanisms leading to DIC. Furthermore, there has been an evolution in the approaches to studying DIC including 3D cell cultures and computational modeling.

Full textAbstract:
Bile flow generation is driven by the vectorial transfer of osmotically active compounds from sinusoidal blood into a confined space, the bile canaliculus. Hence, localization of hepatocellular transporters relevant to bile formation is crucial for bile secretion. Hepatocellular transporters are localized either in the plasma membrane or in recycling endosomes, from where they can be relocated to the plasma membrane on demand, or endocytosed when the demand decreases. The balance between endocytic internalization/ exocytic targeting to/from this recycling compartment is therefore the main determinant of the hepatic capability to generate bile, and to dispose endo- and xenobiotics. Furthermore, the exacerbated endocytic internalization is a common pathomechanisms in both experimental and human cholestasis; this results in bile secretory failure and, eventually, posttranslational transporter downregulation by increased degradation. This review summarizes the proposed structural mechanisms accounting for this pathological condition (e.g., alteration of function, localization or expression of F-actin or F-actin/transporter cross-linking proteins, and switch to membrane microdomains where they can be readily endocytosed), and the mediators implicated (e.g., triggering of “cholestatic” signaling transduction pathways). Lastly, we discussed the efficacy to counteract the cholestatic failure induced by transporter internalization of a number of therapeutic experimental approaches based upon the use of compounds that trigger exocytic targetting of canalicular transporters (e.g., cAMP, tauroursodeoxycholate). This therapeutics may complement treatments aimed to transcriptionally improve transporter expression, by affording proper localization and membrane stability to the de novo synthesized transporters.

Full textAbstract:
It has been reported that the adjuvant-induced inflammation could affect drug metabolism in liver. Here we further investigated the effect of inflammation on drug transport in liver using taurocholate as a model drug. The hepatic disposition kinetics of [3H]taurocholate in perfused normal and adjuvant-treated rat livers were investigated by the multiple indicator dilution technique and data were analyzed by a previously reported hepatobiliary taurocholate transport model. Real-time RT-PCR was also performed to determine the mRNA expression of liver bile salt transporters in normal and diseased livers. The uptake and biliary excretion of taurocholate were impaired in the adjuvant-treated rats as shown by decreased influx rate constant kin (0.65 ± 0.09 vs. 2.12 ± 0.30) and elimination rate constant kbe (0.09 ± 0.02 vs. 0.17 ± 0.04) compared with control rat group, whereas the efflux rate constant kout was greatly increased (0.07 ± 0.02 vs. 0.02 ± 0.01). The changes of mRNA expression of liver bile salt transporters were found in adjuvant-treated rats. Hepatic taurocholate extraction ratio in adjuvant-treated rats (0.86 ± 0.05, n = 6) was significantly reduced compared with 0.93 ± 0.05 ( n = 6) in normal rats. Hepatic extraction was well correlated with altered hepatic ATP content ( r2 = 0.90). In conclusion, systemic inflammation greatly affects hepatic ATP content/production and associated transporter activities and causes an impairment of transporter-mediated solute trafficking and pharmacokinetics.

Full textAbstract:
Human bile salt export pump ( BSEP) mutations underlie progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2). In the PFIC2 animal model, Bsep−/−mice, biliary secretion of bile salts (BS) is decreased, but that of phospholipids (PL) and cholesterol (CH) is increased. Under physiological conditions, the biliary secretion of PL and CH is positively related (“coupled”) to that of BS. We aimed to elucidate the mechanism of increased biliary lipid secretion in Bsep−/−mice. The secretion of the BS tauro-β-muricholic acid (TβMCA) is relatively preserved in Bsep−/−mice. We infused Bsep−/−and Bsep+/+(control) mice with TβMCA in stepwise increasing dosages (150–600 nmol/min) and determined biliary bile flow, BS, PL, and CH secretion. mRNA and protein expression of relevant canalicular transporters was analyzed in livers from noninfused Bsep−/−and control mice. TβMCA infusion increased BS secretion in both Bsep−/−and control mice. The secreted PL or CH amount per BS, i.e., the “coupling,” was continuously two- to threefold higher in Bsep−/−mice ( P < 0.05). Hepatic mRNA expression of canalicular lipid transporters Mdr2, Abcg5, and Abcg8 was 45–55% higher in Bsep−/−mice (Abcg5; P < 0.05), as was canalicular Mdr2 and Abcg5 protein expression. Potential other explanations for the increased coupling of the biliary secretion of PL and CH to that of BS in Bsep−/−mice could be excluded. We conclude that the mechanism of increased biliary lipid secretion in Bsep−/−mice is based on increased expression of the responsible canalicular transporter proteins.

"Effects of In Vivo Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury on the Hepatobiliary Disposition of Rhodamine 123 and its Metabolites in Isolated Perfused Rat Livers."

Full textAbstract:
Purpose. A few studies have shown that normothermic hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury may affect the mRNA and/or protein levels of canalicular transporters P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (Mrp2). However, the effects of the injury on the functions of these canalicular transporters with respect to the biliary excretion of drugs remain largely unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of warm hepatic IR on the hepatobiliary disposition of rhodamine 123 (RH-123), a P-gp substrate, and its glucuronidated metabolite (RH-Glu), an Mrp2 substrate, in rats. Methods. Twenty four or 72 h following a 60-min partial ischemia or sham operation in rats, livers were isolated and perfused ex vivo with a constant concentration (~100 ng/mL) of RH-123. The concentration of RH-123 and its glucuronidated (RH-Glu) and deacylated (RH-110) metabolites were determined in the outlet perfusate, bile, and the liver tissue using HPLC, and relevant pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated. Results. Twenty-four-h IR caused a significant reduction in the hepatic extraction ratio of RH-123 (IR: 0.857 ± 0.078; Sham: 0.980 ± 0.017) and the biliary recovery of the parent drug and RH-Glu by 43% and 44%, respectively. The reductions in the biliary recovery were associated with significant reductions in the apparent biliary clearance of RH-123 and RH-Glu. Mass balance data showed that the formation of the glucuronidated or deacylated metabolite was not significantly affected by the 24-h IR injury. In contrast to the 24-h IR, the injury did not have any effect on the hepatobiliary disposition of RH-123 or its metabolites following 72 h of reperfusion. Conclusions. It is concluded that the pharmacokinetics of drugs that are subject to biliary excretion by the canalicular P-gp and Mrp2 transporters may be altered shortly after hepatic IR injury.

Full textAbstract:
The enterohepatic recirculation of bile acids (BAs) is important in several physiological processes. Although there has been considerable research on liver regeneration after two-thirds partial hepatectomy (PHx), little is known about how the liver protects itself against BA toxicity during regeneration. In this study, various BAs in plasma and liver, the composition of micelle-forming bile constituents, as well as gene expression of the main hepatobiliary transporters were quantified in sham-operated and PHx mice 24 and 48 h after surgery. PHx did not influence the hepatic concentrations of taurine-conjugated BAs (T-BA) but increased the concentration of glycine-conjugated (G-BA) and unconjugated BAs. Total BA excretion (μg·min−1·g liver wt−1) increased 2.4-fold and was accompanied by a 55% increase in bile flow after PHx. The plasma concentrations of T-BAs (402-fold), G-BAs (17-fold), and unconjugated BAs (500-fold) increased. The mRNA and protein levels of the BA uptake transporter Ntcp were unchanged after PHx, whereas the canalicular Bsep protein increased twofold at 48 h. The basolateral efflux transporter Mrp3 was induced at the mRNA (2.6-fold) and protein (3.1-fold) levels after PHx, which may contribute to elevated plasma BA and bilirubin levels. Biliary phospholipid excretion was nearly doubled in PHx mice, most likely owing to increased mRNA expression of the phospholipid transporter, Mdr2. In conclusion, the remnant liver after PHx excretes 2.5-fold more BAs and three times more phospholipids per gram liver than the sham-operated mouse liver. Upregulation of phospholipid transport may be important in protecting the biliary tract from BA toxicity during PHx.

Full textAbstract:
We previously reported that both the concentrative (hCNT) and equilibrative (hENT) nucleoside transporters are expressed in the human liver ( 21 ). Here we report a study that investigated the expression of these transporters (transcripts and proteins) and their role in the hepatobiliary transport of nucleosides/nucleoside drugs using sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes. In the hepatic tissue, the rank order of the mRNA expression of the transporters was hCNT1 ≈ hENT1 > hENT2 ≈ hCNT2 > hCNT3. In sandwich-cultured hepatocytes, the mRNA expression of hCNT2 and hENT2 was comparable to that in hepatic tissue, whereas the expression of corresponding transporters in the two-dimensional hepatocyte cultures was lower. Colocalization studies demonstrated predominant localization of these transporters at the sinusoidal membrane and of hENT1, hCNT1, and hCNT2 at the canalicular membrane. In the sandwich-cultured hepatocytes, ENTs were the major contributors to the transport of thymidine (hENT1, 63%; hENT2, 23%) or guanosine (hENT1, 53%; hENT2, 24%) into the hepatocytes followed by hCNT1 (10%) for thymidine or hCNT2 (23%) for guanosine. Although ribavirin was predominately transported (89%) into the hepatocytes by hENT1, fialuridine (FIAU) was transported by both hENT1 (30%) and hCNTs (61%). The extensively metabolized natural nucleosides were not effluxed into the bile, whereas significant biliary-efflux was observed of FIAU (19%), ribavirin (30%), and formycin B (35%). We conclude that the hepatic activity of hENT1 and hCNT1/2 transporters will determine the in vivo hepatic distribution and therefore the efficacy and/or toxicity of nucleoside drugs used to treat hepatic diseases.

PURPOSE. The knowledge of hepatic disposition kinetics of tacrine, a first cholinesterase inhibitor was approved by FDA for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), would help to understand its hepatotoxicity, its therapeutic effect, and improve the management of patients with AD. The current study aims to characterize tacrine hepatic transport kinetics and study the role of organic cation transporters (OCTs), P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP2) in tacrine sinusoidal uptake and biliary excretion. METHODS. Modulation of tacrine hepatic uptake and efflux, biliary excretion index (BEI%), were performed in sandwich-cultured primary rat hepatocytes (SCHs) using transporters inhibitors. Conformation of the integrity of SCHs model was established by capturing images with light-contrast and fluorescence microscopy. RESULTS. Tacrine uptake in SCHs was carrier-mediated process and saturable with apparent Km of 31.5±9.6 µM and Vmax of 908±72 pmol/min/mg protein. Tetraethyl ammonium (TEA), cimetidine and verapamil significantly reduced tacrine uptake with more pronounced effect observed with verapamil which caused 3-fold reduction in tacrine uptake, indicating role for OCTs. Tacrine has a biliary excretion in SCHs with maximum BEI% value of 22.9±1.9% at 10 min of incubation. Addition of MK571 and valspodar decreased the BEI% of tacrine by 40 and 60% suggesting roles for canalicular MRP2 and P-gp, respectively. CONCLUSIONS. Our results show that in addition to metabolism, tacrine hepatic disposition is carrier-mediated process mediated by sinusoidal OCTs, and canalicular MRP2 and P-gp.This article is open to POST-PUBLICATION REVIEW.

Full textAbstract:
Intravenous feeding of patients with essential and balanced nutrition is required when enteral feeding is not tolerated, therefore indicating the need for Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN). This life-saving therapy is also associated with the increase risk of intrahepatic cholestasis. The incidence of TPN-related hepatobiliary complications is common in both adults and infants on TPN. Previous work in in vivo models suggested that one of the potential contributing factors is the aluminum contamination of TPN solutions. The mechanism by which aluminum contributes to the PNAC development, though, was unknown. Aluminum as a risk factor may influence a number of hepatocellular functions to lead to cholestasis but one possible mechanism is the potential for aluminum to cause dysfunction of those transporters responsible in the maintenance of bile flow. To provide some initial information regarding the role of aluminum as a contributing factor to cholestasis and the possible underlying mechanism, cytotoxicity studies were conducted to determine whether aluminum causes direct toxicity of HepG2 cells. Furthermore, the influence of aluminum on the mRNA expression of hepatic biliary transporters (BSEP, MRP2, MATE1, NTCP) and nuclear transcription factor (FXR) in HepG2 cells using real-time RT-PCR analysis was assessed. Since inflammation is a component of cholestasis, these investigations also involved the use of an inflammatory stimulus, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), to determine whether the effects of aluminum were exacerbated by underlying inflammation. My data suggest that for the canalicular hepatic transporters MATE1 and BSEP, aluminum at higher concentration alone as well as with LPS caused increased mRNA expression levels. In addition to this, BSEP mRNA expression was preserved and that of MATE1 was increased on LPS exposure. Given the particular importance of BSEP in the maintenance of bile flow and reported effects of drug-induced inhibition of BSEP to cause hepatic cholestasis, the influence of aluminum on BSEP (and MATE1) protein expression and activity warrant investigation. Further studies may identify that inhibition of BSEP function (and possibly MATE1) by aluminum contamination of total parenteral nutrition formulations may explain, in part, the intrahepatic cholestasis associated with parenteral nutrition.
