Iwakiri T, Okumura M, Hidaka M, Kumagai Y, Ichihara E, Kawano Y, Arimori K: Inhibition of carrier-mediated uptake of epirubicin reduces cytotoxicity in primary culture of rat hepatocytes. J Appl Toxicol. 2008 Apr;28(3):329-36.
The uptake of epirubicin at a clinical concentration (7.5 x 10 (-7) M) was significantly reduced at 4 degrees C and significantly inhibited when pretreated with metabolic inhibitors (carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP), rotenone and sodium azide) by nearly 25%. Furthermore, an organic anion transporter inhibitor, namely, 4,4'-diisothiocyanato-stilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS); organic anion transport substrates, namely, para-aminohippurate (PAH), taurocholic acid and estradiol 17-beta-D-glucuronide; and organic cation transporter inhibitors, namely, verapamil and tetraethylammonium significantly reduced the uptake of epirubicin. |
