RESUMO
BACKGROUND: and Purpose: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) constitutes a significant health problem due to the increasing prevalence and lack of therapies for treatment and prevention. While pivotal for routine cancer treatment, paclitaxel and vincristine frequently cause CIPN and impact the quality of life among cancer patients and survivors. Here, we investigate molecular mechanisms and drug transport in CIPN. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Human sensory neurons were derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC-SNs), which were characterized using flow cytometry and immunolabeling. These iPSC-SNs were exposed to different concentrations of the two microtubule-targeting agents, paclitaxel and vincristine, with and without pre-exposure to inhibitors and inducers of efflux transporters. Neuronal networks were quantified via fluorescent staining against sensory neuron markers. Transcriptional effects of the chemotherapeutics were examined using quantitative polymerase chain reactions (qPCR). KEY RESULTS: Paclitaxel exposure resulted in axonal retraction and thickening, while vincristine caused fragmentation and abolishment of axons. Both agents increased the mRNA expression of the pain receptor, transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV1), and highly induced neuronal damage, as measured by activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) mRNA. iPSC-SNs express the efflux transporters, P-glycoprotein (P-gp, encoded by ABCB1) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MPR1, encoded by ABCC1). Modulation of efflux transporters indicate that P-gp and MRP1 play a role in modulating neuronal accumulation and neurotoxicity in preliminary experiments. CONCLUSION: and Implications: iPSC-SNs are a valuable and robust model to study the role of efflux transporters and other mechanistic targets in CIPN. Efflux transporters may play a role in CIPN pathogenesis as they regulate the disposition of chemotherapy to the peripheral nervous system, and they may present potential therapeutic targets for CIPN.

The presence of mutagenic and carcinogenic N-nitrosamine impurities in medicinal products poses a safety risk. While incorporating antioxidants in formulations is a potential mitigation strategy, concerns arise regarding their interference with drug absorption by inhibiting intestinal drug transporters. Our study screened thirty antioxidants for inhibitory effects on key intestinal transporters-OATP2B1, P-gp, and BCRP in HEK-293 cells (OATP2B1) or membrane vesicles (P-gp, BCRP) using 3H-estrone sulfate, 3H-N-methyl quinidine, and 3H-CCK8 as substrates, respectively. The screen identified that butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and carnosic acid inhibited all three transporters (OATP2B1, P-gp, and BCRP), while ascorbyl palmitate (AP) inhibited OATP2B1 by more than 50%. BHA had IC50 values of 71 ± 20 µM, 206 ± 14 µM, and 182 ± 49 µM for OATP2B1, BCRP, and P-gp, respectively. AP exhibited IC50 values of 23 ± 10 µM for OATP2B1. The potency of AP and BHA was tested with valsartan, an OATP2B1 substrate, and revealed IC50 values of 26 ± 17 µM and 19 ± 11 µM, respectively, in HEK-293-OATP2B1 cells. Comparing IC50 values of AP and BHA with estimated intestinal concentrations suggests an unlikely inhibition of intestinal transporters at clinical concentrations of drugs formulated with antioxidants.
RESUMO
Multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4) is a broadly expressed ATP-binding cassette transporter that is unique among the MRP subfamily for transporting prostanoids, a group of signaling molecules derived from unsaturated fatty acids. To better understand the basis of the substrate selectivity of MRP4, we used cryogenic-electron microscopy to determine six structures of nanodisc-reconstituted MRP4 at various stages throughout its transport cycle. Substrate-bound structures of MRP4 in complex with PGE1, PGE2 and the sulfonated-sterol DHEA-S reveal a common binding site that accommodates a diverse set of organic anions and suggest an allosteric mechanism for substrate-induced enhancement of MRP4 ATPase activity. Our structure of a catalytically compromised MRP4 mutant bound to ATP-Mg2+ is outward-occluded, a conformation previously unobserved in the MRP subfamily and consistent with an alternating-access transport mechanism. Our study provides insights into the endogenous function of this versatile efflux transporter and establishes a basis for MRP4-targeted drug design.

OBJECTIVE: Prior genomewide association studies have identified variation in major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I alleles and C-C chemokine receptor type 5 gene (CCR5Δ32) as genetic predictors of viral control, especially in 'elite' controllers, individuals who remain virally suppressed in the absence of therapy. DESIGN: Cross-sectional genomewide association study. METHODS: We analyzed custom whole exome sequencing and direct human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing from 202 antiretroviral therapy (ART)-suppressed HIV+ noncontrollers in relation to four measures of the peripheral CD4+ T-cell reservoir: HIV intact DNA, total (t)DNA, unspliced (us)RNA, and RNA/DNA. Linear mixed models were adjusted for potential covariates including age, sex, nadir CD4+ T-cell count, pre-ART HIV RNA, timing of ART initiation, and duration of ART suppression. RESULTS: Previously reported 'protective' host genetic mutations related to viral setpoint (e.g. among elite controllers) were found to predict smaller HIV reservoir size. The HLA 'protective' B∗57:01 was associated with significantly lower HIV usRNA (qâ=â3.3 × 10-3), and among the largest subgroup, European ancestry individuals, the CCR5Δ32 deletion was associated with smaller HIV tDNA (Pâ=â4.3 × 10-3) and usRNA (Pâ=â8.7 × 10-3). In addition, genomewide analysis identified several single nucleotide polymorphisms in MX1 (an interferon stimulated gene) that were significantly associated with HIV tDNA (qâ=â0.02), and the direction of these associations paralleled MX1 gene eQTL expression. CONCLUSIONS: We observed a significant association between previously reported 'protective' MHC class I alleles and CCR5Δ32 with the HIV reservoir size in noncontrollers. We also found a novel association between MX1 and HIV total DNA (in addition to other interferon signaling relevant genes, PPP1CB, DDX3X). These findings warrant further investigation in future validation studies.

Enabled by a plethora of new technologies, research in membrane transporters has exploded in the past decade. The goal of this state-of-the-art article is to describe recent advances in research on membrane transporters that are particularly relevant to drug discovery and development. This review covers advances in basic, translational, and clinical research that has led to an increased understanding of membrane transporters at all levels. At the basic level, we describe the available crystal structures of membrane transporters in both the solute carrier (SLC) and ATP binding cassette superfamilies, which has been enabled by the development of cryogenic electron microscopy methods. Next, we describe new research on lysosomal and mitochondrial transporters as well as recently deorphaned transporters in the SLC superfamily. The translational section includes a summary of proteomic research, which has led to a quantitative understanding of transporter levels in various cell types and tissues and new methods to modulate transporter function, such as allosteric modulators and targeted protein degraders of transporters. The section ends with a review of the effect of the gut microbiome on modulation of transporter function followed by a presentation of 3D cell cultures, which may enable in vivo predictions of transporter function. In the clinical section, we describe new genomic and pharmacogenomic research, highlighting important polymorphisms in transporters that are clinically relevant to many drugs. Finally, we describe new clinical tools, which are becoming increasingly available to enable precision medicine, with the application of tissue-derived small extracellular vesicles and real-world biomarkers.

BACKGROUND: Hypertension and proteinuria are common bevacizumab-induced toxicities. No validated biomarkers are available for identifying patients at risk of these toxicities. METHODS: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis was performed in 1039 bevacizumab-treated patients of European ancestry in four clinical trials (CALGB 40502, 40503, 80303, 90401). Grade ≥2 hypertension and proteinuria were recorded (CTCAE v.3.0). Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-toxicity associations were determined using a cause-specific Cox model adjusting for age and sex. RESULTS: The most significant SNP associated with hypertension with concordant effect in three out of the four studies (p-value <0.05 for each study) was rs6770663 (A > G) in KCNAB1, with the G allele increasing the risk of hypertension (p-value = 4.16 × 10-6). The effect of the G allele was replicated in ECOG-ACRIN E5103 in 582 patients (p-value = 0.005). The meta-analysis of all five studies for rs6770663 led to p-value = 7.73 × 10-8, close to genome-wide significance. The most significant SNP associated with proteinuria was rs339947 (C > A, between DNAH5 and TRIO), with the A allele increasing the risk of proteinuria (p-value = 1.58 × 10-7). CONCLUSIONS: The results from the largest study of bevacizumab toxicity provide new markers of drug safety for further evaluations. SNP in KCNAB1 validated in an independent dataset provides evidence toward its clinical applicability to predict bevacizumab-induced hypertension. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00785291 (CALGB 40502); NCT00601900 (CALGB 40503); NCT00088894 (CALGB 80303) and NCT00110214 (CALGB 90401).

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common dose-limiting toxicity that affects 30%-40% of patients undergoing cancer treatment. Although multiple mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity have been described in preclinical models, these have not been translated into widely effective strategies for the prevention or treatment of CIPN. Predictive biomarkers to inform therapeutic approaches are also lacking. Recent studies have examined genetic risk factors associated with CIPN susceptibility. This review provides an overview of the clinical and pathologic features of CIPN and summarizes efforts to identify target pathways through genetic and functional studies. Structurally and mechanistically diverse chemotherapeutics are associated with CIPN; however, the current review is focused on microtubule-targeting agents since these are the focus of most pharmacogenetic association and functional studies of CIPN. Genome-wide pharmacogenetic association studies are useful tools to identify not only causative genes and genetic variants but also genetic networks implicated in drug response or toxicity and have been increasingly applied to investigations of CIPN. Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived models of human sensory neurons are especially useful to understand the mechanistic significance of genomic findings. Combined genetic and functional genomic efforts to understand CIPN hold great promise for developing therapeutic approaches for its prevention and treatment.

Total triacylglycerol (TAG) level is a key clinical marker of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. However, the roles of individual TAGs have not been thoroughly explored in part due to their extreme structural complexity. We present a targeted mass spectrometry-based method combining multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) and multiple stage mass spectrometry (MS3) for the comprehensive qualitative and semiquantitative profiling of TAGs. This method referred as TriP-MS3 - triacylglycerol profiling using MS3 - screens for more than 6,700 TAG species in a fully automated fashion. TriP-MS3 demonstrated excellent reproducibility (median interday CV â¼ 0.15) and linearity (median R2 = 0.978) and detected 285 individual TAG species in human plasma. The semiquantitative accuracy of the method was validated by comparison with a state-of-the-art reverse phase liquid chromatography (RPLC)-MS (R2 = 0.83), which is the most commonly used approach for TAGs profiling. Finally, we demonstrate the utility and the versatility of the method by characterizing the effects of a fatty acid desaturase inhibitor on TAG profiles in vitro and by profiling TAGs in Caenorhabditis elegans.

P-glycoprotein (P-gp) plays a critical role in drug oral bioavailability, and modulation of this transporter can alter the safety and/or efficacy profile of substrate drugs. Individual oral molecular excipients that inhibit P-gp function have been considered a mechanism for improving drug absorption, but a systematic evaluation of the interaction of excipients with P-gp is critical for informed selection of optimal formulations of proprietary and generic drug products. A library of 123 oral molecular excipients was screened for their ability to inhibit P-gp in two orthogonal cell-based assays. ß-Cyclodextrin and light green SF yellowish were identified as modest inhibitors of P-gp with IC50 values of 168 µM (95% CI, 118-251 µM) and 204 µM (95% CI, 5.9-1745 µM), respectively. The lack of effect of most of the tested excipients on P-gp transport provides a wide selection of excipients for inclusion in oral formulations with minimal risk of influencing the oral bioavailability of P-gp substrates.

Variation in drug disposition genes might contribute to susceptibility to toxicities and interindividual differences in clinical management on chemotherapy for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). This study was designed to explore the association of GST and ABCB1 genetic variation with hematologic and neurologic toxicity, changes in chemotherapy, and disease prognosis in Brazilian women with EOC. A total of 112 women with a confirmed histological diagnosis of EOC treated with carboplatin/paclitaxel were enrolled (2014-2019). The samples were analyzed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the deletion of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes. GSTP1 (c.313A>G/rs1695) and ABCB1 (c.1236C>T/rs1128503; c.3435C>T/rs1045642; c.2677G>T>A/rs2032582) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected by real-time PCR. Subjects with the GSTP1 c.313A>G had reduced risk of anemia (odds ratio (OR): 0.17, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.04-0.69, P = 0.01, dominant model) and for thrombocytopenia (OR: 0.27, 95% CI: 0.12-0.64, P < 0.01; OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.03-0.85, P = 0.03, either dominant or recessive model), respectively. The GSTP1 c.313A>G AG genotype was associated with a lower risk of dose delay (OR: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.13-0.90, P = 0.03). The ABCB1 c.1236C>T was associated with increased risk of thrombocytopenia (OR: 0.15, 95% CI: 0.03-0.82, P = 0.03), whereas ABCB1 c.3435C>T had increased risk of grade 2 and 3 neurotoxicity (OR: 3.61, 95% CI: 1.08-121.01, P = 0.03) in recessive model (CC + CT vs. TT). This study suggests that GSTP1 c.313A>G, ABCB1 c.1236C>T, and c.3435C>T SNP detection is a potential predictor of hematological toxicity and neurotoxicity and could help predict the clinical management of women with EOC.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a dose-limiting adverse event associated with treatment with paclitaxel and other chemotherapeutic agents. The prevention and treatment of CIPN are limited by a lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying this toxicity. In the current study, a human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived sensory neuron (iPSC-SN) model was developed for the study of chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity. The iPSC-SNs express proteins characteristic of nociceptor, mechanoreceptor, and proprioceptor sensory neurons and show Ca2+ influx in response to capsaicin, α,ß-meATP, and glutamate. The iPSC-SNs are relatively resistant to the cytotoxic effects of paclitaxel, with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) values of 38.1 µM (95% confidence interval (CI) 22.9-70.9 µM) for 48-hour exposure and 9.3 µM (95% CI 5.7-16.5 µM) for 72-hour treatment. Paclitaxel causes dose-dependent and time-dependent changes in neurite network complexity detected by ßIII-tubulin staining and high content imaging. The IC50 for paclitaxel reduction of neurite area was 1.4 µM (95% CI 0.3-16.9 µM) for 48-hour exposure and 0.6 µM (95% CI 0.09-9.9 µM) for 72-hour exposure. Decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, slower movement of mitochondria down the neurites, and changes in glutamate-induced neuronal excitability were also observed with paclitaxel exposure. The iPSC-SNs were also sensitive to docetaxel, vincristine, and bortezomib. Collectively, these data support the use of iPSC-SNs for detailed mechanistic investigations of genes and pathways implicated in chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity and the identification of novel therapeutic approaches for its prevention and treatment.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and dose-limiting toxicity to widely used chemotherapeutics. Although the exact molecular mechanism of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy remains elusive, there is consensus that it is caused by damage to the peripheral nervous system leading to sensory symptoms. Recently developed methodologies have provided evidence of expression of drug transporters in the peripheral nervous system. In this literature review, we explore the role for drug transporters in CIPN. First, we assessed the transport of chemotherapeutics that cause CIPN (taxanes, platins, vincristine, bortezomib, epothilones, and thalidomide). Second, we cross-referenced the transporters implicated in genetic or functional studies with CIPN with their expression in the peripheral nervous system. Several drug transporters are involved in the transport of chemotherapeutics that cause peripheral neuropathy and particularly efflux transporters, such as ABCB1 and ABCC1, are expressed in the peripheral nervous system. Previous literature has linked genetic variants in efflux transporters to higher risk of peripheral neuropathy with the taxanes paclitaxel and docetaxel and the vinca alkaloid vincristine. We propose that this might be due to accumulation of the chemotherapeutics in the peripheral nervous system due to reduced neuronal efflux capacity. Thus, concomitant administration of efflux transporter inhibitors may lead to higher risk of adverse events of drugs that cause CIPN. This might prove valuable in drug development where screening new drugs for neurotoxicity might also require drug transporter consideration. There are ongoing efforts targeting drug transporters in the peripheral nervous system to reduce intraneuronal concentrations of chemotherapeutics that cause CIPN, which might ultimately protect against this dose-limiting adverse event.

Microtubule targeting agents (MTAs) are anticancer therapies commonly prescribed for breast cancer and other solid tumors. Sensory peripheral neuropathy (PN) is the major dose-limiting toxicity for MTAs and can limit clinical efficacy. The current pharmacogenomic study aimed to identify genetic variations that explain patient susceptibility and drive mechanisms underlying development of MTA-induced PN. A meta-analysis of genomewide association studies (GWAS) from two clinical cohorts treated with MTAs (Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) 40502 and CALGB 40101) was conducted using a Cox regression model with cumulative dose to first instance of grade 2 or higher PN. Summary statistics from a GWAS of European subjects (n = 469) in CALGB 40502 that estimated cause-specific risk of PN were meta-analyzed with those from a previously published GWAS of European ancestry (n = 855) from CALGB 40101 that estimated the risk of PN. Novel single nucleotide polymorphisms in an enhancer region downstream of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1 encoding S1PR1 ; e.g., rs74497159, ßCALGB 40101 per allele log hazard ratio (95% confidence interval (CI)) = 0.591 (0.254-0.928), ßCALGB 40502 per allele log hazard ratio (95% CI) = 0.693 (0.334-1.053); PMETA = 3.62 × 10-7 ) were the most highly ranked associations based on P values with risk of developing grade 2 and higher PN. In silico functional analysis identified multiple regulatory elements and potential enhancer activity for S1PR1 within this genomic region. Inhibition of S1PR1 function in induced pluripotent stem cell-derived human sensory neurons shows partial protection against paclitaxel-induced neurite damage. These pharmacogenetic findings further support ongoing clinical evaluations to target S1PR1 as a therapeutic strategy for prevention and/or treatment of MTA-induced neuropathy.

Paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) is a common and dose-limiting adverse event. The role of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in the neuronal efflux of paclitaxel was assessed using a translational approach. SH-SY5Y cells were differentiated to neurons and paclitaxel toxicity in the absence and presence of a P-gp inhibitor was determined. Paclitaxel caused marked dose-dependent toxicity in SH-SY5Y-derived neurons. Paclitaxel neurotoxicity was exacerbated with concomitant P-gp inhibition by valspodar and verapamil, consistent with increased intracellular accumulation of paclitaxel. Patients with cancer treated with paclitaxel and P-gp inhibitors had a 2.4-fold (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.3-4.3) increased risk of peripheral neuropathy-induced dose modification while a 4.7-fold (95% CI 1.9-11.9) increased risk for patients treated with strong P-gp inhibitors was observed, and a 7.0-fold (95% CI 2.3-21.5) increased risk in patients treated with atorvastatin. Atorvastatin also increased neurotoxicity by paclitaxel in SH-SY5Y-derived neurons. Clinicians should be aware that comedication with P-gp inhibitors may lead to increased risk of PIPN.

Oral drug delivery is a preferred administration route due to its low cost, high patient compliance and fewer adverse events compared to intravenous administration. However, many pharmaceuticals suffer from poor solubility and low oral bioavailability. One major factor that contributes to low bioavailability are efflux transporters which prevent drug absorption through intestinal epithelial cells. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) are two important efflux transporters in the intestine functioning to prevent toxic materials from entering systemic circulation. However, due to its broad substrate specificity, P-gp limits the absorption of many therapeutics, including chemotherapeutics and antibacterial agents. Methods to inhibit P-gp with competitive inhibitors have not been clinically successful. Here, we show that micron scale devices (microdevices) made from a commonly used biomaterial, polyethylene glycol (PEG), inhibit P-gp through a biosimilar mucus in Caco-2 cells and that transporter function is restored when the microdevices are removed. Microdevices were shown to inhibit P-gp mediated transport of calcein AM, doxorubicin, and rhodamine 123 (R123) and BCRP mediated transport of BODIPY-FL-prazosin. When in contact with Caco-2 cells, microdevices decrease the cell surface amount of P-gp without affecting the passive transport. Moreover, there was an increase in mucosal to serosal transport of R123 with microdevices in an ex-vivo mouse model and increased absorption in vivo. This biomaterial-based approach to inhibit efflux transporters can be applied to a range of drug delivery systems and allows for a nonpharmacologic method to increase intestinal drug absorption while limiting toxic effects.

BACKGROUND: Time- and dose-to-event phenotypes used in basic science and translational studies are commonly measured imprecisely or incompletely due to limitations of the experimental design or data collection schema. For example, drug-induced toxicities are not reported by the actual time or dose triggering the event, but rather are inferred from the cycle or dose to which the event is attributed. This exemplifies a prevalent type of imprecise measurement called grouped failure time, where times or doses are restricted to discrete increments. Failure to appropriately account for the grouped nature of the data, when present, may lead to biased analyses. RESULTS: We present groupedSurv, an R package which implements a statistically rigorous and computationally efficient approach for conducting genome-wide analyses based on grouped failure time phenotypes. Our approach accommodates adjustments for baseline covariates, and analysis at the variant or gene level. We illustrate the statistical properties of the approach and computational performance of the package by simulation. We present the results of a reanalysis of a published genome-wide study to identify common germline variants associated with the risk of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy in breast cancer patients. CONCLUSIONS: groupedSurv enables fast and rigorous genome-wide analysis on the basis of grouped failure time phenotypes at the variant, gene or pathway level. The package is freely available under a public license through the Comprehensive R Archive Network.

Understanding transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions is an integral part of risk assessment in drug development. Recent studies support the use of hexadecanedioate (HDA), tetradecanedioate (TDA), coproporphyrin (CP)-I, and CP-III as clinical biomarkers for evaluating organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1 (SLCO1B1) inhibition. The current study investigated the effect of OATP1B1 genotype c.521T>C (OATP1B1-Val174Ala) on the extent of interaction between cyclosporin A (CsA) and pravastatin, and associated endogenous biomarkers of the transporter (HDA, TDA, CP-I, and CP-III), in 20 healthy volunteers. The results show that the levels of each clinical biomarker and pravastatin were significantly increased in plasma samples of the volunteers following administration of pravastatin plus CsA compared with pravastatin plus placebo. The overall fold change in the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) was similar among the four biomarkers (1.8-2.5-fold, paired t-test P value < 0.05) in individuals who were homozygotes or heterozygotes of the major allele, c.521T. However, the fold change in AUC and Cmax for HDA and TDA was significantly abolished in the subjects who were c.521-CC, whereas the respective fold change in AUC and Cmax for pravastatin and CP-I and CP-III were slightly weaker in individuals who were c.521-CC compared with c.521-TT/TC genotypes. In addition, this study provides the first evidence that SLCO1B1 c.521T>C genotype is significantly associated with CP-I but not CP-III levels. Overall, these results suggest that OATP1B1 genotype can modulate the effects of CsA on biomarker levels; the extent of modulation differs among the biomarkers.

Active transport by renal proximal tubules plays a significant role in drug disposition. During drug development, estimates of renal excretion are essential to dose determination. Kidney bioreactors that reproduce physiologic cues in the kidney, such as flow-induced shear stress, may better predict in vivo drug behavior than do current in vitro models. In this study, we investigated the role of shear stress on active transport of 4-(4-(dimethylamino)styryl)-N-methylpyridinium iodide (ASP+) by Madin-Darby canine kidney cells exogenously expressing the human organic cation transporters organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE1). Cells cultured in a parallel plate under continuous media perfusion formed a tight monolayer with a high barrier to inulin. In response to increasing levels of shear stress (0.2-2 dynes/cm2), cells showed a corresponding increase in transport of ASP+, reaching a maximal 4.2-fold increase at 2 dynes/cm2 compared with cells cultured under static conditions. This transport was inhibited with imipramine, indicating active transport was present under shear stress conditions. Cells exposed to shear stress of 2 dynes/cm2 also showed an increase in RNA expression of both transfected human and endogenous OCT2 (3.7- and 2.0-fold, respectively). Removal of cilia by ammonium sulfate eliminated the effects of shear on ASP+ transport at 0.5 dynes/cm2 with no effect on ASP+ transport under static conditions. These results indicate that shear stress affects active transport of organic cations in renal tubular epithelial cells in a cilia-dependent manner.

Genome-wide genotyping data are increasingly available for pharmacogenetic association studies, but application of these data for development of prediction models is limited. Prediction methods, such as elastic net regularization, have recently been applied to genetic studies but only limitedly to pharmacogenetic outcomes. An elastic net was applied to a pharmacogenetic study of progression-free survival (PFS) of 468 patients with advanced breast cancer in a clinical trial of paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, and ixabepilone. A final model included 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in addition to clinical covariates (prior taxane status, hormone receptor status, disease-free interval, and presence of visceral metastases) with an area under the curve (AUC) integrated over time of 0.81, an increase compared to an AUC of 0.64 for a model with clinical covariates alone. This model may be of value in predicting PFS with microtubule targeting agents and may inform reverse translational studies to understand differential response to these drugs.
