| Abstract | Purpose. The purpose of this study was to characterize the function of multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) (or MRP-like organic anion transport systems) in the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB) using both an in vitro BBB model and an in vivo microdialysis model.Methods. In vitro functional studies were performed using bovine brain microvessel endothelial cells (BBMEC). The accumulation of fluorescein, an anionic fluorescent dye, in BBMEC was determined with and without the presence of inhibitors of various efflux transport proteins. In vivo microdialysis simultaneously monitored fluorescein concentrations in cortical extracellular fluid and cerebrospinal fluid. The effect of probenecid on the in vivo distribution of fluorescein was studied using a balanced crossover design in the rat.Results. In vitro experiments showed that probenecid, indomethacin, LY-329146, and all MRP inhibitors significantly increased (two- to threefold) the accumulation of fluorescein in BBMEC, whereas LY-335979, a P-gp inhibitor, had no effect on the accumulation of fluorescein. Probenecid significantly increased fluorescein plasma concentration and the plasma free fraction in vivo. The distribution of fluorescein across the BBB and BCSFB was enhanced by 2.2- and 1.9-fold, respectively, when probenecid was coadministered, even after correction for increased fluorescein plasma concentrations and free fraction. Conclusions. These results demonstrate that MRPs or MRP-like transport system(s) may play an important role in fluorescein distribution across both BBB and BCSFB. This study showed that microdialysis proved to be a powerful in vivo technique for the study of transport systems in the central nervous system, and in vitro/in vivo correlations are possible using these model systems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
