ABSTRACT
We found nucleotide variability in the 5'-upstream region and exonic sequences of a gene-encoding canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter/multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (cMOAT/MRP2) by polymerase chain reaction-based sequencing using genomic DNA from 72 established cell lines derived from 72 Japanese individuals. Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found in the 5'-untranslational region and 21 in the exonic regions. Of them, 14 were nonsynonymous SNPs. One deletion of seven consecutive adenines resulting in a frameshift variant was also found. Four SNPs, c-24t, g1249a (V417I), c2366t (S789F), and c3972t (I1324I), were the same as those recently reported. A strong association was found between c-24t (5'-untranslated region) and c3972t (exon 28), with the promoter activity of the former worth being compared.

The inhibition and mechanism-based inactivation potencies of irinotecan (7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin; CPT-11) and its active metabolite (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin; SN-38) for human cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes were investigated to evaluate the potential for drug interactions involving CPT-11 using microsomes from insect cells expressing specific human P450 isoforms. The mechanism and potential for interaction were examined by Lineweaver-Burk analysis, and NADPH-, time- and concentration-dependent effects were observed. CPT-11 and SN-38 competitively inhibited CYP3A4 (testosterone 6 beta-hydroxylation) activity with K(i) values of 129 and 121 microM, respectively. CYP2A6 (coumarin 7-hydroxylation) and CYP2C9 (diclofenac 4'-hydroxylation) activities exhibited a mixed type of inhibition comprising competitive and noncompetitive components in response to SN-38, the K(i) values being 181 and 156 microM, respectively. On the other hand, CYP1A2 (phenacetin O-deethylation), CYP2B6 (7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation), CYP2C8 (paclitaxel 6 alpha-hydroxylation), CYP2C19 (S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation), CYP2D6 (bufuralol 1'-hydroxylation), and CYP2E1 (chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation) were hardly affected by either compound. Furthermore, CPT-11 and SN-38 were suggested to be mechanism-based inactivators of CYP3A4. The k(inact) and K(I) values of CPT-11 and SN-38 were 0.06 min(-1) and 24 microM and 0.10 min(-1) and 26 microM, respectively. However, no inactivation of CYP2A6 and CYP2C9 by SN-38 was observed. These results mean that CPT-11 and SN-38 interact with human P450 isoforms, such as CYP2A6, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4, in vitro and imply that the significant drug interactions involving CPT-11 may be caused by a mechanism-based inactivation of CYP3A4 by SN-38 as an active metabolite of CPT-11 rather than competitive inhibition.

A high-performance affinity purification technique has been developed for cisplatin (CDDP)-damaged DNA binding proteins directly from crude nuclear extracts of HeLaS3 cell using novel submicron beads synthesized by copolymerization of styrene and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA). The beads dramatically decreased both nonspecific protein adsorption on solid surfaces and elution volume and simplified the handling procedure. Preparation of the beads for purification was carried out by immobilization of telomeric repeats, (TTAGGG)(n), on the surface after the reaction with CDDP. At least nine proteins clearly showed higher affinity to CDDP-DNA and were identified by amino acid sequence analysis including HMGB (high mobility group), hUBF (human upstream binding factor), and Ku autoantigen, which were previously reported to be components of CDDP-damaged DNA binding proteins.
