ABSTRACT
5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is a first-line agent in both remission and maintenance therapy for ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the mucosal concentration of 5-ASA was significantly lower in patients with severe histological inflammation, which further led to a poor response to 5-ASA treatment. Our study aimed to clarify the mechanism of 5-ASA uptake into colonic epithelial cells and to further explore the reason for the decreased colonic mucosal 5-ASA concentration in UC patients. Our results demonstrated that the colonic 5-ASA concentration was notably reduced in DSS-induced colitis mice and inversely correlated with colonic inflammation. 5-ASA was not a substrate of carnitine/organic cation transporter 1/2 (OCTN1/2) or multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1), whereas organic anion transporting polypeptide 2B1 (OATP2B1) and sodium-coupled monocarboxylate transporter 1 (SMCT1) mediated the uptake of 5-ASA, with a greater contribution from OATP2B1 than SMCT1. Inhibitors and siRNAs targeting OATP2B1 significantly reduced 5-ASA absorption in colonic cell lines. Moreover, OATP2B1 expression was dramatically downregulated in colon tissues from UC patients and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis mice, and was also negatively correlated with colonic inflammation. Mechanistically, mixed proinflammatory cytokines downregulated the expression of OATP2B1 in a time- and concentration-dependent manner through the hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 α (HNF4α) pathway. In conclusion, OATP2B1 was the pivotal transporter involved in colonic 5-ASA uptake, which indicated that inducing OATP2B1 expression may be a strategy to promote 5-ASA uptake and further improve the concentration and anti-inflammatory efficacy of 5-ASA in UC.
