BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The coordinate activity of hepatic uptake transporters [e.g. organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1)], drug-metabolizing enzymes [e.g. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1)] and efflux pumps (e.g. MRP2) is a crucial determinant of drug disposition. However, limited data are available on transport of drugs (e.g. ezetimibe, etoposide) and their glucuronidated metabolites by human MRP2 in intact cell systems. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Using monolayers of newly established triple-transfected MDCK-OATP1B1-UGT1A1-MRP2 cells as well as MDCK control cells, single-(OATP1B1) and double-transfected (OATP1B1-UGT1A1, OATP1B1-MRP2) MDCK cells, we therefore studied intracellular concentrations and transcellular transport after administration of ezetimibe or etoposide to the basal compartment. KEY RESULTS Intracellular accumulation of ezetimibe was significantly lower in MDCK-OATP1B1-UGT1A1-MRP2 triple-transfected cells compared with all other cell lines. Considerably higher amounts of ezetimibe glucuronide were found in the apical compartment of MDCK-OATP1B1-UGT1A1-MRP2 monolayers compared with all other cell lines. Using HEK cells, etoposide was identified as a substrate of OATP1B1. Intracellular concentrations of etoposide equivalents (i.e. parent compound plus metabolites) were affected only to a minor extent by the absence or presence of OATP1B1/UGT1A1/MRP2. In contrast, apical accumulation of etoposide equivalents was significantly higher in monolayers of both cell lines expressing MRP2 (MDCK-OATP1B1-MRP2, MDCK-OATP1B1-UGT1A1-MRP2) compared with the single-transfected (OATP1B1) and the control cell line. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Ezetimibe glucuronide is a substrate of human MRP2. Moreover, etoposide and possibly also its glucuronide are substrates of MRP2. These data demonstrate the functional interplay between transporter-mediated uptake, phase II metabolism and export by hepatic proteins involved in drug disposition.
