Abstract

The unpredictable pharmacokinetics of non-renal cleared drugs in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is associated with the activity of drug transporters. However, the mechanisms underlying regulation of drug transporters are yet to be established. In this study, we demonstrated the involvement of a HDAC2-Foxo3α pathway in advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs)-induced ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) expression and activity. The correlation of AOPPs accumulation with concentration of cyclosporine in plasma was evaluated in 194 patients with transplantation. Molecular changes in acetylation of various histones and related regulatory molecules were examined in HepG2 cell cultures treated with AOPPs. Accumulation of AOPPs in serum in relation to molecular changes in HDAC2-Foxo3α in vivo were evaluated in 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 nx) and oral adenine (Adenine) CKD rat models. Interestingly, the cyclosporine level was negatively correlated with AOPPs in plasma. In addition, AOPPs markedly suppressed the expression of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2), inducing ABCB1 expression and activity in vitro and in vivo. Importantly, AOPPs modulated phosphorylation of Foxo3α and the upstream Akt protein. Our findings indicate that AOPPs regulate the expression and activity of ABCB1 via reducing HDAC2 expression and activating Foxo3α-dependent signaling. The collective results support the utility of AOPPs as a potential target for drug and/or dosage adjustment in CKD patients. Targeting of AOPPs presents a novel approach to regulate non-renal clearance.
