Abstract:
:Human sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) is the main bile acid uptake transporter in the liver with the capability to translocate xenobiotics. While its inhibitor requirements have been recently characterized, its substrate requirements have not. The objectives of this study were (a) to elucidate NTCP substrate requirements using native bile acids and bile acid analogs, (b) to develop the first pharmacophore for NTCP substrates and compare it with the inhibitor pharmacophores, and (c) to identify additional NTCP novel substrates. Thus, 18 native bile acids and two bile acid conjugates were initially assessed for NTCP inhibition and/or uptake, which suggested a role of hydroxyl pattern and steric interaction in NTCP binding and translocation. A common feature pharmacophore for NTCP substrate uptake was developed, using 14 native bile acids and bile acid conjugates, yielding a model which featured three hydrophobes, one hydrogen bond donor, one negative ionizable feature and three excluded volumes. This model was used to search a database of FDA approved drugs and retrieved the majority of the known NTCP substrates. Among the retrieved drugs, irbesartan and losartan were identified as novel NTCP substrates, suggesting a potential role of NTCP in drug disposition.
