| Abstract | Purpose. To investigate the role of carrier mechanisms in: [1] the polarized transport of the bis(pivaloyloxymethyl)- [bis(POM)-] ester prodrug of the antiviral agent 9-(2-phosphonylmethoxyethyl)adenine [PMEA] and [2] the directional secretion of its metabolites. Methods. Caco-2 monolayers were used to study the modulating effect of carriers on the transport of bis(POM)-PMEA and the efflux of intracellularly formed metabolites mono(POM)-PMEA and PMEA from the cells. The interaction of bis(POM)-PMEA and its metabolites with the efflux mechanisms present in Caco-2 monolayers was investigated by testing the effect of various concentrations of verapamil (30, 100, 300 μM) or indomethacin (10-500 μM) on transport and efflux. Results. Polarity in transport of bis(POM)-PMEA (50 μM) across Caco-2 monolayers was noted: transport of total PMEA [=bis(POM)-PMEA, mono(POM)-PMEA and PMEA] was significantly higher in basolateral (BL) to apical (AP) direction (14.5 ± 0.4%) than transport in the opposite (AP to BL) direction (1.7 ± 0.2%). This difference was reduced in a concentration dependent way when verapamil (0−100 μM) was included in both AP and BL incubation media. After loading the cells with bis(POM)-PMEA (100 μM) for 1 hr, studies on efflux of PMEA and mono(POM)-PMEA from the Caco-2 monolayers over a 3 hr period, revealed that both metabolites were preferentially secreted towards the AP compartment. Efflux of PMEA towards AP and BL compartments amounted to 14.6 ± 1.1 % and 5.3 ± 0.4%, respectively, of the initial intracellular amount of total PMEA, while efflux of mono(POM)-PMEA towards AP and BL compartments was limited to 2.3 ± 0.1 % and 0.5 ± 0.1 %, respectively. When 10 μM indomethacin was included in the AP incubation medium, efflux of PMEA was decreased to 7.8 ± 0.3% and 3.3 ± 0.3% towards the AP and BL compartments, respectively. The decrease in efflux by indomethacin was concentration-dependent up to 100 μM. Transepithelial transport of total PMEA was also reduced in the presence of 30 μM indomethacin, as reflected in smaller concentrations of PMEA and mono(POM)-PMEA in the acceptor compartment, irrespective of the transport direction. Conclusions. The data obtained in this study suggest that bis(POM)-PMEA is substrate for a P-glycoprotein-like carrier mechanism in Caco-2 monolayers, while its metabolites mono(POM)-PMEA and PMEA are transported by a non-P-glycoprotein efflux protein. |

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.
