Pediatric glioblastoma cell line shows different patterns of expression of transmembrane ABC transporters after in vitro exposure to vinblastine

Background  Resistance to drug is a major cause of treatment failure in pediatric brain cancer. The multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype can be mediated by the superfamily of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. The dynamics of expression of the MDR genes after exposure to chemotherapy, especially the comparison between pediatric brain tumors of different histology, is poorly described. Objective  To compare the expression profiles of the multidrug resistance genes ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCG2 in different neuroepithelial pediatric brain tumor cell lines prior and following short-term culture with vinblastine. Methods  Immortalized lineages from pilocytic astrocytoma (R286), anaplasic astrocytoma (UW467), glioblastoma (SF188), and medulloblastoma (UW3) were exposed to vinblastine sulphate at different schedules (10 and 60 nM for 24 and 72 h). Relative amounts of mRNA expression were analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry for ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCG2. Results  mRNA expression of ABCB1 increased together with augmenting concentration and time of exposure to vinblastine for R286, UW467, and UW3 cell lines. Interestingly, ABCB1 levels of expression diminished in SF188. Following chemotherapy, mRNA expression of ABCC1 decreased in all cell lines other than glioblastoma. ABCG2 expression was influenced by vinblastine only for UW3. The mRNA levels showed consistent association to protein expression in the selected sets of cell lines analyzed. Conclusions  The pediatric glioblastoma cell line SF188 shows different pattern of expression of multidrug resistance genes when exposed to vinblastine. These preliminary findings may be useful in determining novel strategies of treatment for neuroepithelial pediatric brain tumors. Financial support: FAPESP (grant 2007/04065-9).     

The "Specific" P-Glycoprotein Inhibitor Tariquidar Is Also a Substrate and an Inhibitor for Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP/ABCG2)

Tariquidar was developed as a specific inhibitor of the efflux transporter ABCB1. Recent positron emission tomographic brain imaging studies using [(11)C]tariquidar to measure ABCB1 (P-gp, P-glycoprotein) density in mice indicate that the inhibitor may not be as specific as previously thought. We examined its selectivity as an inhibitor and a substrate for the human transporters P-gp, breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2), and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1). Our results show that at low concentrations, tariquidar acts selectively as an inhibitor of P-gp and also as a substrate of BCRP. At much higher concentrations (≥100 nM), tariquidar acts as an inhibitor of both P-gp and BCRP. Thus, the in vivo specificity of tariquidar depends on concentration and the relative density and capacity of P-gp vs BCRP.     

Distribution and functional activity of P-glycoprotein and multidrug resistance-associated proteins in human brain microvascular endothelial cells in hippocampal sclerosis

Multidrug resistance protein, also referred as P-glycoprotein (P-gp, MDR1; ABCB1) and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 1 (ABCC1) and 2 (ABCC2) are, thus far, candidates to cause antiepileptic drug (AED) resistance epilepsy. In this study, we investigated P-gp, MRP1 and MRP2 expression, localization and functional activity on cryosections and isolated human brain-derived microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC) from epileptic patients (HBMEC-EPI) with hippocampal sclerosis (HS), as compared with HBMEC isolated from normal brain cortex (HBMEC-CTR). We examined the expression and distribution of three transporters, P-gp, MRP1 and MRP2 on two major parts of the resected tissue, the hippocampus and the parahippocampal gyrus (Gph). P-gp showed diffuse expression not only in endothelium but also by parenchymal cells in both the hippocampus and the Gph. MRP1 labeling was observed in parenchymal cells in the Gph. By contrast, MRP2 was mainly found in endothelium of the hippocampus. P-gp and MRP1 expression in the Gph was relatively high in the patient with long-term seizure history. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of HBMEC revealed that MDR1, MRP1 as well as MRP5 (ABCC5) and MRP6 (ABCC6) were overexpressed in HBMEC-EPI at the mRNA level. HBMEC from both normal and epilepsy groups displayed protein expression of P-gp, whereas MRP1 and MRP2 were seen only in HBMEC-EPI. Accordingly, it is of particular interest that MRP functional activities were observed in HBMEC-EPI, but not in HBMEC-CTR. Our results suggest that complex MDR expression changes not only in the hippocampus but in the Gph may play a role in AED pharmacoresistance in intractable epilepsy patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) by altering the permeability of AEDs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB).     

RNA干涉MSP58基因抑制神经胶质瘤细胞U251增值和侵袭性研究

目的MSP58是一种能够通过调节基因的转录和翻译水平来改变细胞恶性表型的癌基因，其蛋白的分子量大小为58kDa。但截止目前，其在肿瘤发生及发展中所起的作用仍不是十分清楚。我们通过构建MSP58基因的干涉表达载体，下调MSP58基因在人脑胶质瘤细胞系U251中的表达以揭示其在胶质瘤增殖、迁移和侵袭中所起的作用。方法将特异性的MSP58干涉表达载体pSilencer3．1-MSP58转染人脑胶质瘤细胞系U251，同时构建相应的阴性对照载体pSilencer3．1-NC以及空载体pSilencer3．1-H1neo。运用半定量RT-PCR及Westernblot的方法检测稳定转染和未转染干涉载体的胶质瘤细胞的MSP58的mRNA和蛋白的表达水平。运用MTT法测定胶质瘤细胞的增殖水平。流式细胞仪检测细胞周期变化以及单层细胞划痕试验和侵袭小室试验检测胶质瘤细胞的迁移及侵袭能力变化。结果成功建立了三种稳定转染细胞株：分别是具有稳定下调MSP58基因表达的U251-S细胞，阴性对照U251-NC细胞以及含有空载体的u251．H1neo细胞。干涉组细胞的MSP58的表达水平无论在mRNA水平还是在蛋白水平均较阴性对照组及空载体组细胞显著降低。其表达抑制率分别为62．7％和60．3％。干涉组细胞的增殖能力明显降低。同时在细胞周期方面，干涉组细胞与阴性对照组及空载体组细胞相比，发生了显著的G1期阻滞。细胞迁移及侵袭试验结果显示，MSP58干涉组的细胞较其他对照组细胞的迁移及侵袭能力均受到明显抑制。结论通过RNA干涉的方法下调MSP58基因的mRNA和蛋白的表达，不但可以明显的抑制人脑胶质瘤细胞的增殖，并且可以显著的抑制胶质瘤细胞的迁移及侵袭能力。因此，靶向性MSP58基因RNAi介导的胶质瘤基因治疗具有良好的应用前景。     

Reversion of multidrug resistance in human glioma by RNA interference

OBJECTIVE: To explore whether the vector construction of short hairpin in vivo could make human glioma cell line BT325 produce RNA interference (RNAi) duplexes and reverse the expression of the MDR1 gene. METHODS: Three 62nt oligonucleotide fragments (shRNA) were constructed according to GeneBank MDR1 sequence and were cloned to the retrovirus-delivered vectors. After these vectors were transfected directly to the BT325 cell by Lipofectamine 2000 with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) co-transfection, the MDR1 gene silence effects were detected by the changing levels of mRNA and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) including real-time PCR (RT-PCR), Northern blot and Western blot analysis. For assessing multidrug resistance against doxorubicin (DOX) and vincristine (VCR), cell proliferation assays were performed by cell counting kit-8 and IC50 was calculated. RESULTS: The RNAi plasmid vectors were constructed successfully. The gene silence became the strongest after 48 hour transfection from Northern blot; Western blot analysis demonstrated that P-gp expression reduced to 12.9, 30.3 and 4.8%. The chemosensitivity assays showed that the transfected cell could increase the sensitivity of DOX and VCR. Based on the value of IC50, BT325 cells increased sensitivity to drugs obviously. The sequence specific RNAi could inhibit MDR1 mRNA and P-gp expression of the glioma cell line. And it may reverse multidrug resistance phenotype, which may provide promising therapeutic modalities in the treatment of human glioma.

Membrane transporter proteins: a challenge for CNS drug development

Drug transporters are membrane proteins present in various tissues such as the lymphocytes, intestine, liver, kidney, testis, placenta, and central nervous system. These transporters play a significant role in drug absorption and distribution to organic systems, particularly if the organs are protected by blood-organ barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier or the maternal-fetal barrier. In contrast to neurotransmitters and receptor-coupled transporters or other modes of interneuronal transmission, drug transporters are not directly involved in specific neuronal functions, but provide global protection to the central nervous system. The lack of capillary fenestration, the low pinocytic activity and the tight junctions between brain capillary and choroid plexus endothelial cells represent further gatekeepers limiting the entrance of endogenous and exogenous compounds into the central nervous system. Drug transport is a result of the concerted action of efflux and influx pumps (transporters) located both in the basolateral and apical membranes of brain capillary and choroid plexus endothelial cells. By regulating efflux and influx of endogenous or exogenous substances, the blood-brain barrier and, to a lesser extent the blood-cerebrospinal barrier in the ventricles, represents the main interface between the central nervous system and the blood, i.e., the rest of the body. As drug distribution to organs is dependent on the affinity of a substrate for a specific transport system, membrane transporter proteins are increasingly recognized as a key determinant of drug disposition. Many drug transporters are members of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily or the solute-linked carrier (SLC) class. The multidrug resistance protein MDR1 (ABCB1), also called P-glycoprotein, the multidrug resistance-associated proteins MRP1 (ABCC1) and MRP2 (ABCC2), and the breast cancer-resistance protein BCRP (ABCG2) are ATP-dependent efflux transporters expressed in the blood-brain barrier They belong to the superfamily of ABC transporters, which export drugs from the intracellular to the extracellular milieu. Members of the SLC class of solute carriers include, for example, organic ion transporting peptides, organic cation transporters, and organic ion transporters. They are ATP-independent polypeptides principally expressed at the basolateral membrane of brain capillary and choroid plexus endothelial cells that also mediate drug transport through central nervous system barriers.
