Abstract：
:Multidrug resistance mediated by the multidrug resistance-associated protein MRP1 is associated with decreased drug accumulation, which is in turn dependent on cellular glutathione. We have reported that verapamil, an inhibitor of drug transport, caused a decrease in cellular glutathione in CCRF-CEM/E1000 MRP1-overexpressing leukaemia cells (Biochem Pharmacol 55;1283--9, 1998). We now demonstrate that other inhibitors of MRP1-mediated drug transport (e.g. MK571, indomethacin, genistein, and nifedipine) deplete cellular glutathione in these leukaemia cells (>30% decrease; P < 0.01) while having no effect on the parental CCRF-CEM cells. However, treatment with etoposide or vincristine (at similar molar concentrations) caused a 20% decrease in glutathione. Verapamil-stimulated glutathione transport correlated with MRP1 expression in a series of drug-resistant cells, and glutathione was quantitatively recovered in the extracellular media. Further, verapamil-stimulated glutathione transport was rapid (50% decrease in 10 min), dose-dependent, and inhibited by vanadate, an inhibitor of ATPase activity, but not by sulphobromophthalein (BSP) or methionine, inhibitors of hepatic glutathione transporters. Incubation of CCRF-CEM/E1000 cells in 25 mM glutathione not only showed that verapamil-mediated efflux occurred against the concentration gradient, but also demonstrated the MRP1-mediated uptake of glutathione (P < 0.01 compared to the parental CCRF-CEM cells), which was not inhibited by vanadate. These results demonstrate that while MRP1 transports glutathione in the presence of inhibitors of drug transport, there is no convincing evidence for co-transport of glutathione with drug. They further demonstrate that MRP1 mediates the facilitated transport of glutathione into the MRP1-overexpressing CEM/E1000 cells, suggesting that MRP1 may play a major role in cellular glutathione homeostasis.
