Abstract:
:The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of P-glycoprotein modulators on human extraneuronal monoamine transporter (EMT)-mediated transport. The experiments were performed using a cell line from human embryonic kidney (HEK293 cells) stably transfected with pcDNA3hEMT (293(hEMT)), or with pcDNA3 alone (293(control)). Of the P-glycoprotein modulators tested, rhodamine123, verapamil and daunomycin concentration-dependently inhibited EMT-mediated uptake of [3H]1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ([3H]MPP(+)). The corresponding IC(50)'s were found to be 3.6, 37 and 130 microM, respectively. By contrast, vinblastine, digitoxin and cyclosporine A were devoid of effect. The endogenous organic cation tyramine, but not choline, inhibited EMT-mediated transport (IC(50) of 468 microM). Moreover, L-arginine and L-histidine (up to 1 mM) did not affect [3H]MPP(+) uptake. Finally, MPP(+) and tyramine trans-stimulated [3H]MPP(+) uptake, but rhodamine123 had no effect, and verapamil and daunomycin trans-inhibited [3H]MPP(+) uptake. In conclusion, this study shows that several cationic modulators of P-glycoprotein inhibit EMT-mediated transport. As a consequence, the interaction of P-glycoprotein modulators with EMT must be taken into account, and the consequences of this interaction must not be forgotten when using such drugs in vivo.
