  • adenosine triphosphate binding cassette transporter genes up regulation in untreated hepatocellular carcinoma is mediated by cellular micrornas
    Hepatology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Florie Borel, Allerdien Visser, Harald Petry, Sander Van Deventer, Peter L M Jansen, Pavlina Konstantinova
    Abstract:

    Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are drug efflux pumps responsible for the multidrug resistance phenotype causing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment failure. Here we studied the expression of 15 ABC transporters relevant for multidrug resistance in 19 paired HCC patient samples (16 untreated, 3 treated by chemotherapeutics). Twelve ABC transporters showed up-regulation in HCC compared with adjacent healthy liver. These include ABCA2, ABCB1, ABCB6, ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC4, ABCC5, ABCC10, ABCC11, ABCC12, and ABCE1. The expression profile and function of some of these transporters have not been associated with HCC thus far. Because cellular microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in posttranscriptional gene silencing, we hypothesized that regulation of ABC expression in HCC might be mediated by miRNAs. To study this, miRNAs were profiled and dysregulation of 90 miRNAs was shown in HCC compared with healthy liver, including up-regulation of 11 and down-regulation of 79. miRNA target sites in ABC genes were bioinformatically predicted and experimentally verified in vitro using luciferase reporter assays. In total, 13 cellular miRNAs were confirmed that target ABCA1, ABCC1, ABCC5, ABCC10, and ABCE1 genes and mediate changes in gene expression. Correlation analysis between ABC and miRNA expression in individual patients revealed an inverse relationship, providing an indication for miRNA regulation of ABC genes in HCC. Conclusion: Up-regulation of ABC transporters in HCC occurs prior to chemotherapeutic treatment and is associated with miRNA down-regulation. Up-regulation of five ABC genes appears to be mediated by 13 cellular miRNAs in HCC patient samples. miRNA-based gene therapy may be a novel and promising way to affect the ABC profile and overcome clinical multidrug resistance.

  • Abcc6 deficiency in mice leads to altered ABC transporter gene expression in metabolic active tissues
    Lipids in Health and Disease, 2019
    Co-Authors: Bettina Ibold, Isabel Faust, Janina Tiemann, Arthur A. B. Bergen, Cornelius Knabbe, Theo G M F Gorgels, Doris Hendig
    Abstract:

    Background ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are involved in a huge range of physiological processes. Mutations in the ABCC6 gene cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum, a metabolic disease with progressive soft tissue calcification. Methods The aim of the present study was to analyze gene expression levels of selected ABC transporters associated with cholesterol homeostasis in metabolic active tissues, such as the liver, kidney and white adipose tissue (WAT) of Abcc6 ^ −/− mice from an early and late disease stage (six-month-old and 12-month-old mice). Results The strongest regulation of ABC transporter genes was observed in the liver tissue of six-month-old Abcc6 ^ −/− mice. Here, we found a significant increase of mRNA expression levels of phospholipid, bile salt and cholesterol/sterol transporters Abcb1b , Abcb11 , Abcg1, Abcg5 and Abcg 8. Abcd2 mRNA expression was increased by 3.2-fold in the liver tissue. We observed strong upregulation of Abca3 and Abca1 mRNA expression up to 3.3-fold in kidney and WAT, and a 2-fold increase of Abca9 mRNA in the WAT of six-month-old Abcc6 knockout mice. Gene expression levels of Abcb1b and Abcg1 remained increased in the liver tissue after an age-related disease progression, while we observed lower mRNA expression of Abca3 and Abca9 in the kidney and WAT of 12-month-old Abcc6 ^ −/− mice. Conclusions These data support previous findings that Abcc6 deficiency leads to an altered gene expression of other ABC transporters depending on the status of disease progression. The increased expression of fatty acid, bile salt and cholesterol/sterol transporters may be linked to an altered cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism due to a loss of Abcc6 function.

  • Gene expression profiling of ABC transporters in dermal fibroblasts of pseudoxanthoma elasticum patients identifies new candidates involved in PXE pathogenesis
    Laboratory Investigation, 2008
    Co-Authors: Doris Hendig, Sarah Kocken, Ralf Zarbock, Christiane Szliska, Thomas Langmann, Knut Kleesiek, Gerd Schmitz, Christian Gotting
    Abstract:

    Mutations in the ABCC6 gene, encoding the multidrug resistance-associated protein 6 (MRP6), cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). This heritable disorder leads to pathological alterations in connective tissues. The implication of MRP6 deficiency in PXE is still unknown. Moreover, nothing is known about a possible compensatory expression of other ATP binding-cassette (ABC) transporter proteins in MRP6-deficient cells. We investigated the gene expression profile of 47 ABC transporters in human dermal fibroblasts of healthy controls ( n =2) and PXE patients ( n =4) by TaqMan low-density array. The analysis revealed the expression of 37 ABC transporter genes in dermal fibroblasts. ABCC6 gene expression was not quantifiable in fibroblasts derived from PXE patients. Seven genes ( ABCA6 , ABCA9 , ABCA10 , ABCB5 , ABCC2 , ABCC9 and ABCD2 ) were induced, whereas the gene expression of one gene ( ABCA3 ) was decreased, comparing controls and PXE patients (with at least twofold changes). We reanalyzed the gene expression of selected ABC transporters in a larger set of dermal fibroblasts from controls and PXE patients ( n =6, each). Reanalysis showed high interindividual variability between samples, but confirmed the results obtained in the array analysis. The gene expression of ABC transporter genes, as well as lineage markers of PXE, was further examined after inhibition of ABCC6 gene expression by using specific small-interfering RNA. These experiments corroborated the observed gene expression alterations, most notably in the ABCA subclass (up to fourfold, P

  • abcc6 does not transport vitamin k3 glutathione conjugate from the liver relevance to pathomechanisms of pseudoxanthoma elasticum
    Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2011
    Co-Authors: Krisztina Fulop, Qiujie Jiang, Koen Van De Wetering, Viola Pomozi, Pal Szabo, Tamas Aranyi, Balazs Sarkadi, Piet Borst, Jouni Uitto, Andras Varadi
    Abstract:

    Vitamin K is a cofactor required for gamma-glutamyl carboxylation of several proteins regulating blood clotting, bone formation and soft tissue mineralization. Vitamin K3 is an important intermediate during conversion of the dietary vitamin K1 to the most abundant vitamin K2 form. It has been suggested that ABCC6 may have a role in transporting Vitamin K or its derivatives from the liver to the periphery. This activity is missing in pseudoxanthoma elasticum, a genetic disorder caused by mutations in ABCC6 characterized by abnormal soft tissue mineralization. Here we examined the efflux of the glutathione conjugate of vitamin K3 (VK3GS) from the liver in wild type and Abcc6−/− mice, and in transport assays in vitro. We found in liver perfusion experiments that VK3GS is secreted into the inferior vena cava, but we observed no significant difference between wild type and Abcc6−/− animals. We overexpressed the human ABCC6 transporter in Sf9 insect and MDCKII cells and assayed its Vitamin K3-conjugate transport activity in vitro. We found no measurable transport of VK3GS by ABCC6, whereas ABCC1 transported this compound at high rate in these assays. These results show that VK3GS is not the essential metabolite transported by ABCC6 from the liver and preventing the symptoms of pseudoxanthoma elasticum.

  • Loss of ATP-dependent Transport Activity in Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum-associated Mutants of Human ABCC6 (MRP6)
    The Journal of biological chemistry, 2002
    Co-Authors: Attila Iliás, Balazs Sarkadi, Zsolt Urban, Thomas L. Seidl, Olivier Le Saux, Emese Sinkó, Charles D. Boyd, Andras Varadi
    Abstract:

    Abstract Mutations in the ABCC6 (MRP6) gene cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a rare heritable disorder resulting in the calcification of elastic fibers. In the present study a cDNA encoding a full-length normal variant of ABCC6 was amplified from a human kidney cDNA library, and the protein was expressed in Sf9 insect cells. In isolated membranes ATP binding as well as ATP-dependent active transport by ABCC6 was demonstrated. We found that glutathione conjugates, including leukotriene C4 and N-ethylmaleimideS-glutathione (NEM-GS), were actively transported by human ABCC6. Organic anions (probenecid, benzbromarone, indomethacin), known to interfere with glutathione conjugate transport of human ABCC1 and ABCC2, inhibited the ABCC6-mediated NEM-GS transport in a specific manner, indicating that ABCC6 has a unique substrate specificity. We have also expressed three missense mutant forms of ABCC6, which have recently been shown to cause PXE. MgATP binding was normal in these proteins; ATP-dependent NEM-GS or leukotriene C4 transport, however, was abolished. Our data indicate that human ABCC6 is a primary active transporter for organic anions. In the three ABCC6 mutant forms examined, the loss of transport activity suggests that these mutations result in a PXE phenotype through a direct influence on the transport activity of this ABC transporter.

  • Prognostic significance and molecular mechanisms of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily C members in gastric cancer.
    Medicine, 2019
    Co-Authors: Xianshuang Mao, Fengsheng Zhou, Yongchu Huang, Guangzhi Zhu
    Abstract:

    Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the major leading causes of tumor-related deaths worldwide. Adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily C (ABCC) consists of 13 members, ABCC1 to 13, which were examined for their associations with GC.The online Kaplan-Meier Plotter database was used to determine the prognostic significance of ABCC subfamily members in GC. Stratified analyses were performed using gender, disease stage, degree of tumor differentiation, expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and Lauren classification. Molecular mechanisms were examined using the database for annotation, visualization, and integrated discovery database.ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCC7, ABCC8, ABCC9, and ABCC10 expression showed prognostic significance in the whole population and in male and female subpopulations (all P ≤ .05). Furthermore, high expression of most ABCC family members always suggested a poor prognosis, except for ABCC7 (P > .05). Stratified analyses revealed that ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCC7, ABCC8, ABCC9, and ABCC10 expression showed prognostic significance for the whole population, as well as male and female populations. ABCC2 and ABCC9 were significantly correlated with all disease stages, while ABCC2 and ABCC6 were significantly correlated with all Lauren classifications. Expression of ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCC5, ABCC7, ABCC8, ABCC9, and ABCC10 was significantly correlated with either negative or positive of HER2 status (all P ≤ .05). Enrichment analysis indicated that these genes were involved in ATPase activity, transmembrane transport, or were ABC transporters (all P ≤ .05).ABCC1, ABCC3, ABCC7, ABCC8, ABCC9, and ABCC10 may be potential prognosis biomarkers for GC, acting as ABC transporters and via ATPase activity.
