Synergistic Modulation

P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a membranous ATPase responsible for the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype. Using membrane vesicles prepared from the highly resistant cell line DC-3F/ADX we studied the influence on P-gp ATPase activity of four progesterone derivatives which specifically bind to P-gp and reverse MDR. Progesterone and desoxycorticosterone stimulate P-gp ATPase activity with, respectively, apparent concentrations giving half-maximal activation of 20–25 μM and 40–50 μM, and activation factors of 2.3 (at 100 μM progesterone) and 1.8 (at 170 μM desoxycorticosterone). Hydrocortisone above 100 μM stimulates P-gp ATPase activity while corticosterone has no apparent stimulating effect. Our data are consistent with the location of the binding sites for the progesterone derivatives on the P-gp membranous domain. The effects of these steroids on verapamil-stimulated P-gp ATPase activity support a non-competitive mechanism, i.e. the binding sites for verapamil and steroids are mutually non-exclusive for P-gp ATPase modulation. A similar non-competitive inhibition of progesterone-stimulated P-gp ATPase activity by desoxycorticosterone or by corticosterone leads to the conclusion that these steroids, although sharing related structures, have distinct modulating sites on P-gp. As expected from their mutually non-exclusive interactions on P-gp, progesterone and verapamil when mixed induce a synergistic modulation of P-gp ATPase activity. Since drug transport by P-gp is believed to be coupled to its ATPase activity, a corresponding synergistic effect of these two modulators for the inhibition of P-gp-mediated drug resistance can be expected.

Reversing Agents

P-Glycoprotein, the plasma membrane protein responsible for the multidrug resistance of some tumour cells, is an active transporter of a number of structurally unrelated hydrophobic drugs. We have characterized the modulation of its ATPase activity by a multidrug-resistance-related cytotoxic drug, vinblastine, and different multidrug-resistance-reversing agents, verapamil and the dihydropyridines nicardipine, nimodipine, nitrendipine, nifedipine and azidopine. P-Glycoprotein ATPase activity was measured by using native membrane vesicles containing large amounts of P-glycoprotein, prepared from the highly multidrug-resistant lung fibroblasts DC-3F/ADX. P-Glycoprotein ATPase is activated by verapamil and by nicardipine but not by vinblastine. Among the five dihydropyridines tested, the higher the hydrophobicity, the higher was the activation factor with respect to the basal activity and the lower was the half-maximal activating concentration. The vinblastine-specific binding on P-glycoprotein is reported by the inhibitions of the verapamil- and the nicardipine-stimulated ATPase. These inhibitions are purely competitive, which means that the bindings of vinblastine and verapamil, or vinblastine and nicardipine, on P-glycoprotein are mutually exclusive. In contrast, verapamil and nicardipine display mutually non-competitive interactions. This demonstrates the existence of two distinct specific sites for these two P-glycoprotein modulators on which they can bind simultaneously and separately to the vinblastine site. The nicardipine-stimulated ATPase activity in the presence of the other dihydropyridines shows mixed-type inhibitions. These dihydropyridines have thus different binding sites that interact mutually to decrease their respective, separately determined affinities. This could be due to steric constraints between sites close to each other. This is supported by the observation that vinblastine binding is not mutually exclusive with nifedipine or nitrendipine binding, whereas it is mutually exclusive with nicardipine. Moreover, verapamil binding also interacts with the five dihydropyridines by mixed inhibitions, with different destabilization factors. On the whole our enzymic data show that P-glycoprotein has distinct but interacting binding sites for various modulators of its ATPase function.

Cytotoxic Studies

Five pulchinenosides (pulchinenoside B3, pulchinenoside BD, pulchinenoside B7, pulchinenoside B10, and pulchinenoside B11) isolated from Pulsatilla chinensis (Bge) Regel saponins extract exhibited strong antitumor activities but poor gastrointestinal absorption properties. The enteric induction of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is understood to restrict the oral bioavailability of some pharmaceutical compounds and lead to adverse drug reactions. Therefore, the present investigation was intended to delineate the impacts of pulchinenosides on cellular P-gp function and expression using Sf9 membrane vesicles and LS180 cells as a surrogate of human intestinal epithelial cells. Preliminary cytotoxic studies showed that 10 μM was an acceptable concentration for cytotoxicity and antiproliferation studies for all pulchinenosides using the alamarBlue assay. The cell cycle of LS180 cells detected by flow cytometry was not significantly influenced after 48 hours of coincubation with 10 μM of pulchinenosides. In the presence of pulchinenosides, the ATP-dependent transport of N-methyl-quinidine mediated by P-glycoprotein was stimulated significantly. The upregulation of P-glycoprotein and mRNA levels was found by Western blot and real-time PCR analysis in LS180 cells. Parallel changes indicate that all pulchinenosides are exposed to pulchinenosides-mediated transcriptional regulation. In conclusion, pulchinenosides could induce P-glycoprotein expression and directly increase its functional activity.

Microtubule protein purified from brain tissue by cycles of in vitro assembly-disassembly contains ATPase activity that has been postulated to be associated with microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) and therefore significant for studies of microtubule-dependent motility. In this paper we demonstrate that greater than 90% of the ATPase activity is particulate in nature and may be derived from contaminating membrane vesicles. We also show that the MAPs (MAP-1, MAP-2, and tau factors) and other high molecular weight polypeptides do not contain significant amounts of ATPase activity. These findings do not support the concept of "brain dynein" or of MAPs with ATPase activity.

We studied the kinetics of extracellular ATP (ATPe) in Escherichia coli and their outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) stimulated with amphipatic peptides melittin (MEL) and mastoparan 7 (MST7). Real-time luminometry was used to measure ATPe kinetics, ATP release, and ATPase activity. The latter was also determined by following [32P]Pi released from [γ-32P]ATP. E. coli was studied alone, co-incubated with Caco-2 cells, or in rat jejunum segments. In E. coli, the addition of [γ-32P]ATP led to the uptake and subsequent hydrolysis of ATPe. Exposure to peptides caused an acute 3-fold (MST7) and 7-fold (MEL) increase in [ATPe]. In OMVs, ATPase activity increased linearly with [ATPe] (0.1–1 µM). Exposure to MST7 and MEL enhanced ATP release by 3–7 fold, with similar kinetics to that of bacteria. In Caco-2 cells, the addition of ATP to the apical domain led to a steep [ATPe] increase to a maximum, with subsequent ATPase activity. The addition of bacterial suspensions led to a 6–7 fold increase in [ATPe], followed by an acute decrease. In perfused jejunum segments, exposure to E. coli increased luminal ATP 2 fold. ATPe regulation of E. coli depends on the balance between ATPase activity and ATP release. This balance can be altered by OMVs, which display their own capacity to regulate ATPe. E. coli can activate ATP release from Caco-2 cells and intestinal segments, a response which in vivo might lead to intestinal release of ATP from the gut lumen.

Transient Expression System

Human P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is a 170-kDa plasma membrane protein that confers multidrug resistance to otherwise sensitive cells. A mutation in Pgp, G185-->V, originally identified as a spontaneous mutation, was shown previously to alter the drug resistance profiles in cell lines that are stably transfected with the mutant MDR1 cDNA and selected with cytotoxic agents. To understand the mechanism by which the V185 mutation leads to an altered drug resistance profile, we used a transient expression system that eliminates the need for drug selection to attain high expression levels and allows for the rapid characterization of many aspects of Pgp function and biosynthesis. The mutant and wild-type proteins were expressed at similar levels after 24-48 h in human osteosarcoma (HOS) cells by infection with a recombinant vaccinia virus encoding T7 RNA polymerase and simultaneous transfection with a plasmid containing MDR1 cDNA controlled by the T7 promoter. For both mutant and wild-type proteins, photolabeling with [3H]azidopine and [125I]iodoarylazidoprazosin, drug-stimulated ATPase activity, efflux of rhodamine 123, and accumulation of radiolabeled vinblastine and colchicine were evaluated. In crude membrane preparations from HOS cells, a higher level of basal Pgp-ATPase activity was observed for the V185 variant than for the wild-type, suggesting partial uncoupling of drug-dependent ATP hydrolysis by the mutant. Several compounds, including verapamil, nicardipine, tetraphenylphosphonium, and prazosin, stimulated ATPase activities of both the wild-type and mutant similarly, whereas cyclosporin A inhibited the ATPase activity of the mutant more efficiently than that of the wild-type. This latter observation explains the enhanced potency of cyclosporin A as an inhibitor of the mutant Pgp. No differences were seen in verapamil-inhibited rhodamine 123 efflux, but the rate of accumulation was slower for colchicine and faster for vinblastine in cells expressing the mutant protein, as compared with those expressing wild-type Pgp. We conclude that the G185-->V mutation confers pleiotropic alterations on Pgp, including an altered basal ATPase activity and altered interaction with substrates and the inhibitor cyclosporin A.
