Abstract: | Bestatin, a dipeptide, a low molecular weight aminopeptidase inhibitor, has been demonstrated to be an immunomodulator with an antitumor activity. However, the transporter-mediated renal excretion of bestatin is not fully understood. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the transporter-mediated renal excretion mechanism for bestatin. The plasma concentration of bestatin was increased markedly and both the accumulative renal excretion and renal clearance of bestatin were decreased significantly after intravenous administration of bestatin in combination with probenecid. p-Aminohippuric acid (PAH), a substrate of organic anion transporter (OAT) 1, benzylpenicillin (PCG), a substrate of OAT3 and JBP485, a substrate of OAT1 and OAT3, reduced the uptake of bestatin in rat kidney slices and in hOAT1- or hOAT3-HEK 293 cells. The accumulation of bestatin in hOAT1-HEK and hOAT3-HEK 293 cells was significantly greater than that in vector-HEK, and the K(m) and V(max) were 0.679 ± 0.007 mM and 0.807 ± 0.006 nmol/mg protein/30s for OAT1, 0.632 ± 0.014 mM and 1.303 ± 0.015 nmol/mg protein/30s for OAT3 respectively. PAH and JBP485 inhibited significantly the uptake of bestatin in hOAT1-HEK with the K(i) values of 92 ± 9 μM and 197 ± 21 μM; and PCG, JBP485 inhibited significantly the uptake of bestatin in hOAT3-HEK 293 cells with the K(i) values of 88 ± 12 μM and 160 ± 16 μM. Our results are novel in demonstrating for the first time that OAT1 and OAT3 are involved in the renal excretion of bestatin. |
