Preincubation with cyclosporin A (CsA), a potent inhibitor of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) and OATP1B3, enhanced its inhibitory effects on these transporters in vitro. A similar effect was observed upon preincubation with some other inhibitors. Removing these from the incubation media did not readily reverse the inhibition on OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. This preincubation-dependent long-lasting inhibition appeared to be related to CsA concentration in the cells in addition to that in the incubation media. Thus, we hypothesized that CsA inhibits OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 from inside (trans-inhibition) as well as outside (cis-inhibition) the cells and constructed the cis- and trans-inhibition model. The enhanced inhibitory effect of CsA on OATP1B1 observed after preincubation was quantitatively described using K and K as inhibition constants for cis- and trans-inhibitions, respectively. In addition, a long-lasting inhibition was also described by this model. Additional factors taken into consideration when simulating in vivo pharmacokinetic alterations by CsA are potential inhibition by AM1, a major metabolite of CsA, which has been reported to inhibit OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. Based on the physiologically based pharmacokinetic model incorporating trans- and cis-inhibition of OATP1B1 by CsA, the simulation showed that OATP1B1-mediated drug-drug interaction with CsA was suggested to be time-dependent also in vivo although further clinical studies are required for confirmation.

: Bempedoic acid (BA) is a novel cholesterol-lowering agent with proven positive effects on cardiovascular endpoints. Because it is an inhibitor of the hepatic transporters OATP1B1 and OATP1B3, two uptake transporters regulating the intrahepatic availability of statins, it increases the systemic exposure of co-administered statins. This interaction could raise the risk of myopathy.

As part of a narrative review of various publications describing the clinical use of urine- and plasma-based drug transporter biomarkers, it was determined that the utilization of coproporphyrin I, a hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 and OATP1B3 biomarker, has been reported for 28 different drug-drug interaction (DDI) perpetrator drugs. Similarly, biomarkers for liver organic cation transporter 1 (isobutyryl-l-carnitine, N = 7 inhibitors), renal organic cation transporter 2 and multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins (N-methylnicotinamide, N = 13 inhibitors), renal organic anion transporter (OAT) 1 and 3 (pyridoxic acid, N = 7 inhibitors), and breast cancer resistance protein (riboflavin, N = 3 inhibitors) have also been described. Increased use of biomarkers has also been accompanied by modeling efforts to enable DDI predictions and development of multiplexed methods to facilitate their bioanalysis.

Although the antiallergic properties of compounds such as CAPE, Melatonin, Curcumin, and Vitamin C have been poorly discussed by experimental studies, the antiallergic properties of these famous molecules have never been discussed with calculations. The histamine-1 receptor (H1R) belongs to the family of rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptors expressed in cells that mediate allergies and other pathophysiological diseases. In this study, pharmacological activities of FDA-approved second generation H1 antihistamines (Levocetirizine, desloratadine and fexofenadine) and molecules such as CAPE, Melatonin, Curcumin, Vitamin C, ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, Toxicity) profiles, density functional theory (DFT), molecular docking, biological targets and activities were compared by calculating.

Raloxifene has low bioavailability due to extensive glucuronidation in the intestine and the liver, and its pharmacokinetics is associated with high intra- and interindividual variability. Some of this variability could be explained by the enterohepatic recycling of raloxifene, which is driven by transporter-mediated uptake and efflux and gut microbial deglucuronidation of raloxifene glucuronides. These individual processes involved in raloxifene disposition, however, have not been characterized in full detail.

The involvement of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters in plasma clozapine (CLZ) dynamics has not been well examined in Japanese patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS). Therefore, this clinical study investigated the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of various pharmacokinetic factors (drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters) and dynamic changes in CLZ. Additionally, we aimed to determine whether CLZ acts as a substrate for pharmacokinetic factors using in vitro assays and molecular docking calculations.
