Entecavir (ETV) is a first-line antiviral agent for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Renal excretion is the major elimination path of ETV, in which tubular secretion plays the key role. However, the secretion mechanism has not been clarified. We speculated that renal transporters mediated the secretion of ETV. Therefore, the aim of our study was to elucidate which transporters contribute to the renal disposition of ETV. Our results revealed that ETV (50 μM) remarkably reduced the accumulation of probe substrates in MDCK cells stably expressing human multidrug and toxin efflux extrusion proteins (hMATE1/2-K), organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2), and carnitine/organic cation transporters (hOCTNs) and increased the substrate accumulation in cells transfected with multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (hMRP2) or multidrug resistance protein 1 (hMDR1). Moreover, ETV was proved to be a substrate of the above-described transporters. In transwell studies, the transport of ETV in MDCK-hOCT2-hMATE1 showed a distinct directionality from BL (hOCT2) to AP (hMATE1), and the cellular accumulation of ETV in cells expressing hMATE1 was dramatically lower than that of the mock-treated cells. The accumulation of ETV in mouse primary renal tubular cells was obviously affected by inhibitors of organic anion transporter 1/3 (Oat1/3), Oct2, Octn1/2, and Mrp2. Therefore, the renal uptake of ETV is likely mediated by OAT1/3 and OCT2 while the efflux is mediated by MATEs, MDR1, and MRP2, and OCTN1/2 may participate in both renal secretion and reabsorption.

Chronic heart failure (CHF) as a long-term disease is highly prevalent in elder people worldwide. Early diagnosis and treatments are crucial for preventing the development of CHF. Herein, we aimed to identify novel diagnostic biomarker, therapeutic target and drug for CHF. Untargeted metabolomic analysis has been used to characterize the different metabolomic profile between CHF patients and healthy people. Meanwhile, the targeted metabolomic study demonstrated the elevation of 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid (CMPF) in the serum of CHF patients and coronary artery ligation-induced CHF mice. Subsequently, we firstly observed that elevation of CMPF impaired cardiac function and aggravated myocardial injury by enhancing fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Interestingly, inhibition of responsible transporters organic anion transporter 1/3 (OAT1/3) has been found to decrease the CMPF level, and suppress FAO-related key protein expressions including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, peroxisome proliferative activated receptor-α, carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1 , and malonyl CoA decarboxylase in coronary artery ligation-induced CHF mice. Meanwhile, the inhibitor of OAT1/3 presented an excellent improvement in cardiac function and histological injury. Based on the above findings, molecular docking was adopted to screen the potential therapeutic drug targeting OAT1/3, and ruscogenin (RUS) exhibited a great binding affinity with OAT1 and OAT3 . Next, it was verified that RUS could remarkedly decrease the expression of OAT1/3 and CMPF levels in heart tissue of CHF mice, as well as suppress the expression of FAO-related proteins. What's more, RUS can effectively improve cardiac function, myocardial fibrosis and morphological damage. Collectively, this study provided a potential metabolic marker CMPF and novel target OAT1/3 for CHF, which were demonstrated to be involved in FAO. And RUS was identified as a potential anti-FAO drug for CHF by regulating OAT1/3.

Ethnopharmacological relevance The major terpene lactones of ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) include ginkgolide A , B, C and bilobalide are used for the protection of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Terpene lactones are orally bioavailable and predominantly eliminated via the renal pathway. However, information on the transporters involved in the pharmacokinetics (PK) and renal excretion of terpene lactones is limited. Aim of the study The objective of this study is to assess the role of OAT1/3 which are important transporters in the human kidney in the PK and renal excretion ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide. Materials and methods Uptake of ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells overexpressing OAT1 or OAT3, respectively were studied. To verify the result from in vitro cell models, the studies on PK, kidney accumulation and urinary excretion of ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide were carried out in rats. Results The result showed that ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide are low-affinity substrates of OAT1/3. Following co-administration with probenecid , a typical inhibitor of OAT1/3, the rat plasma concentrations of ginkgolide A, B, C and bilobalide increased significantly. AUC showed a significant increase in the probenecid-treated rats compared to control rats (893.48 vs. 1123.85, 314.91 vs. 505.74, and 2724.97 vs. 3096.40 μg/L*h for ginkgolide A, B and bilobalide, respectively), while the clearance of these compounds significantly decreased. The accumulation of ginkgolide A, B and bilobalide in the kidney of the probenecid-treated rats was reduced by 1.8, 2.4, and 1.5-fold, respectively; further reducing the cumulative urinary recovery of these compounds. Conclusion The findings indicated that ginkgolide A, B and bilobalide are excreted via OAT1/3-mediated transport in the kidney and OAT1/3 inhibitor significantly influence the PK ginkgolides and bilobalide.
