Mechanisms of resistance to anticancer drugs: the role of the polymorphic ABC transporters ABCB1 and ABCG2.
Pharmacogenomics. 2005 Mar;6(2):115-38., [PMID:15882131]

Abstract [show]
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) genes play a role in the resistance of malignant cells to anticancer agents. The ABC gene products, including ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) and ABCG2 (breast cancer-resistance protein [BCRP], mitoxantrone-resistance protein [MXR], or ABC transporter in placenta [ABCP]), are also known to influence oral absorption and disposition of a wide variety of drugs. As a result, the expression levels of these proteins in humans have important consequences for an individual's susceptibility to certain drug-induced side effects, interactions, and treatment efficacy. Naturally occurring variants in ABC transporter genes have been identified that might affect the function and expression of the protein. This review focuses on recent advances in the pharmacogenetics of the ABC transporters ABCB1 and ABCG2, and discusses potential implications of genetic variants for the chemotherapeutic treatment of cancer.

Genetic polymorphisms of ATP-binding cassette transporters ABCB1 and ABCG2: therapeutic implications.
Expert Opin Pharmacother. 2005 Nov;6(14):2455-73., [PMID:16259577]

Abstract [show]
Pharmacogenomics, the study of the influence of genetic factors on drug action, is increasingly important for predicting pharmacokinetics profiles and/or adverse reactions to drugs. Drug transporters, as well as drug metabolism play pivotal roles in determining the pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs and their overall pharmacological effects. There is an increasing number of reports addressing genetic polymorphisms of drug transporters. However, information regarding the functional impact of genetic polymorphisms in drug transporter genes is still limited. Detailed functional analysis in vitro may provide clear insight into the biochemical and therapeutic significance of genetic polymorphisms. This review addresses functional aspects of the genetic polymorphisms of human ATP-binding cassette transporters, ABCB1 and ABCG2, which are critically involved in the pharmacokinetics of drugs.

Clinical pharmacogenetics and potential application in personalized medicine.

Abstract [show]
The current 'fixed-dosage strategy' approach to medicine, means there is much inter-individual variation in drug response. Pharmacogenetics is the study of how inter-individual variations in the DNA sequence of specific genes affect drug responses. This article will highlight current pharmacogenetic knowledge on important drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters and drug targets to understand interindividual variability in drug clearance and responses in clinical practice and potential use in personalized medicine. Polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 (CYP) family may have had the most impact on the fate of pharmaceutical drugs. CYP2D6, CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 gene polymorphisms and gene duplications account for the most frequent variations in phase I metabolism of drugs since nearly 80% of drugs in use today are metabolised by these enzymes. Approximately 5% of Europeans and 1% of Asians lack CYP2D6 activity, and these individuals are known as poor metabolizers. CYP2C9 is another clinically significant drug metabolising enzyme that demonstrates genetic variants. Studies into CYP2C9 polymorphism have highlighted the importance of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles. Extensive polymorphism also occurs in a majority of Phase II drug metabolizing enzymes. One of the most important polymorphisms is thiopurine S-methyl transferases (TPMT) that catalyzes the S-methylation of thiopurine drugs. With respect to drug transport polymorphism, the most extensively studied drug transporter is P-glycoprotein (P-gp/MDR1), but the current data on the clinical impact is limited. Polymorphisms in drug transporters may change drug's distribution, excretion and response. Recent advances in molecular research have revealed many of the genes that encode drug targets demonstrate genetic polymorphism. These variations, in many cases, have altered the targets sensitivity to the specific drug molecule and thus have a profound effect on drug efficacy and toxicity. For example, the beta (2)-adrenoreceptor, which is encoded by the ADRB2 gene, illustrates a clinically significant genetic variation in drug targets. The variable number tandem repeat polymorphisms in serotonin transporter (SERT/SLC6A4) gene are associated with response to antidepressants. The distribution of the common variant alleles of genes that encode drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters and drug targets has been found to vary among different populations. The promise of pharmacogenetics lies in its potential to identify the right drug at the right dose for the right individual. Drugs with a narrow therapeutic index are thought to benefit more from pharmacogenetic studies. For example, warfarin serves as a good practical example of how pharmacogenetics can be utilized prior to commencement of therapy in order to achieve maximum efficacy and minimum toxicity. As such, pharmacogenetics has the potential to achieve optimal quality use of medicines, and to improve the efficacy and safety of both prospective and licensed drugs.

Sequence diversity and haplotype structure in the human ABCB1 (MDR1, multidrug resistance transporter) gene.
Pharmacogenetics. 2003 Aug;13(8):481-94., [PMID:12893986]

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: There is increasing evidence that polymorphism of the ABCB1 (MDR1) gene contributes to interindividual variability in bioavailability and tissue distribution of P-glycoprotein substrates. The aim of the present study was to (1) identify and describe novel variants in the ABCB1 gene, (2) understand the extent of variation in ABCB1 at the population level, (3) analyze how variation in ABCB1 is structured in haplotypes, and (4) functionally characterize the effect of the most common amino acid change in P-glycoprotein. METHODS AND RESULTS: Forty-eight variant sites, including 30 novel variants and 13 coding for amino acid changes, were identified in a collection of 247 ethnically diverse DNA samples. These variants comprised 64 statistically inferred haplotypes, 33 of which accounted for 92% of chromosomes analyzed. The two most common haplotypes, ABCB1*1 and ABCB1*13, differed at six sites (three intronic, two synonymous, and one non-synonymous) and were present in 36% of all chromosomes. Significant population substructure was detected at both the nucleotide and haplotype level. Linkage disequilibrium was significant across the entire ABCB1 gene, especially between the variant sites found in ABCB1*13, and recombination was inferred. The Ala893Ser change found in the common ABCB1*13 haplotype did not affect P-glycoprotein function. CONCLUSION: This study represents a comprehensive analysis of ABCB1 nucleotide diversity and haplotype structure in different populations and illustrates the importance of haplotype considerations in characterizing the functional consequences of ABCB1 polymorphisms.

Functional implications of genetic polymorphisms in the multidrug resistance gene MDR1 (ABCB1).
Pharm Res. 2004 Jun;21(6):904-13., [PMID:15212152]

Abstract [show]
The multidrug resistance (MDR1) gene product P-glycoprotein is a membrane protein that functions as an ATP-dependent efflux pump, transporting exogenous and endogenous substrates from the inside of cells to the outside. Physiological expression of P-glycoprotein in tissues with excretory or protective function is a major determinant of drug disposition and provides a cellular defense mechanism against potentially harmful compounds. Therefore, P-glycoprotein has significant impact on therapeutic efficacy and toxicity as it plays a key role in absorption of oral medications from the intestinal tract, excretion into bile and urine, and distribution into protected tissues such as the brain and testes. There is increasing interest in the possible role of genetic variation in MDR1 in drug therapy. Numerous genetic polymorphisms in MDR1 have been described, some of which have been shown to determine P-glycoprotein expression levels and substrate transport. Furthermore, some of these polymorphisms have an impact on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of drug substrates and directly influence outcome and prognosis of certain diseases. This review will focus on the impact of genetic variation in MDR1 on expression and function of P-glycoprotein and the implications of this variation for drug therapy and disease risk.

[hide] Ethnic differences in genetic polymorphisms of CYP... Drug Metab Pharmacokinet. 2004 Apr;19(2):83-95. Ozawa S, Soyama A, Saeki M, Fukushima-Uesaka H, Itoda M, Koyano S, Sai K, Ohno Y, Saito Y, Sawada J
Ethnic differences in genetic polymorphisms of CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP3As and MDR1/ABCB1.
Drug Metab Pharmacokinet. 2004 Apr;19(2):83-95., [PMID:15499174]

Abstract [show]
Metabolic capacities for debrisoquin, sparteine, mephenytoin, nifedipine, and midazolam, which are substrates of polymorphic CYP2D6, CYP2C19, and CYP3A, have been reported to exhibit, in many cases, remarkable interindividual and ethnic differences. These ethnic differences are partly associated with genetic differences. In the case of the drug transporter ABCB1/MDR1, interindividual differences in its transporter activities toward various clinical drugs are also attributed to several ABCB1/MDR1 genetic polymorphisms. In this review, the existence and frequency of various low-activity alleles of drug metabolizing enzymes as well as populational drug metabolic capacities are compared among several different races or ethnicities. Distribution of nonsynonymous ABCB1/MDR1 SNPs and haplotype frequency in various races are summarized, with the association of nonsynonymous SNPs with large functional alterations as a rare event.

Function-altering SNPs in the human multidrug transporter gene ABCB1 identified using a Saccharomyces-based assay.
PLoS Genet. 2007 Mar 9;3(3):e39., 2007-03-09 [PMID:17352537]

Abstract [show]
The human ABCB1 (MDR1)-encoded multidrug transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) plays a major role in disposition and efficacy of a broad range of drugs including anticancer agents. ABCB1 polymorphisms could therefore determine interindividual variability in resistance to these drugs. To test this hypothesis we developed a Saccharomyces-based assay for evaluating the functional significance of ABCB1 polymorphisms. The P-gp reference and nine variants carrying amino-acid-altering single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were tested on medium containing daunorubicin, doxorubicin, valinomycin, or actinomycin D, revealing SNPs that increased (M89T, L662R, R669C, and S1141T) or decreased (W1108R) drug resistance. The R669C allele's highly elevated resistance was compromised when in combination with W1108R. Protein level or subcellular location of each variant did not account for the observed phenotypes. The relative resistance profile of the variants differed with drug substrates. This study established a robust new methodology for identification of function-altering polymorphisms in human multidrug transporter genes, identified polymorphisms affecting P-gp function, and provided a step toward genotype-determined dosing of chemotherapeutics.

An update on ABCB1 pharmacogenetics: insights from a 3D model into the location and evolutionary conservation of residues corresponding to SNPs associated with drug pharmacokinetics.

Abstract [show]
The human ABCB1 protein, (P-glycoprotein or MDR1) is a membrane-bound glycoprotein that harnesses the energy of ATP hydrolysis to drive the unidirectional transport of substrates from the cytoplasm to the extracellular space. As a large range of therapeutic agents are known substrates of ABCB1 protein, its role in the onset of multidrug resistance has been the focus of much research. This role has been of particular interest in the field of pharmacogenomics where genetic variation within the ABCB1 gene, particularly in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), is believed to contribute to inter-individual variation in ABCB1 function and drug response. In this review we provide an update on the influence of coding region SNPs within the ABCB1 gene on drug pharmacokinetics. By utilizing the crystal structure of the mouse ABCB1 homolog (Abcb1a), which is 87% homologous to the human sequence, we accompany this discussion with a graphical representation of residue location for amino acids corresponding to human ABCB1 coding region SNPs. Also, an assessment of residue conservation, which is calculated following multiple sequence alignment of 11 confirmed sequences of ABCB1 homologs, is presented and discussed. Superimposing a 'heat map' of residue homology to the Abcb1a crystal structure has permitted additional insights into both the conservation of individual residues and the conservation of their immediate surroundings. Such graphical representation of residue location and conservation supplements this update of ABCB1 pharmacogenetics to help clarify the often confounding reports on the influence of ABCB1 polymorphisms on drug pharmacokinetics and response.

132 When in haplotype with the intensely studied SNPs E13/1236C4T (#s6), E22/2677G4T/A (#ns22) and E27/3435C4T (#s20), SNP E3/61A4G (N21D), which cannot be mapped to the 3D crystal structure, was reported to increase BODIPY-FL-paclitaxel accumulation and modulate the effect of cyclosporine A on the intracellular accumulation of BODIPY-FL-paclitaxel transport.50 However, the N21D substitution was found not to influence cyclosporine A pharmacokinetics in another study.51 In yet another study, the N21D polymorphism was reported to influence the trough but not the peak plasma levels concentration of methadone.52 Using a yeast-based assay, SNP E27/3421T4A (S1141T) (#ns33) and several SNPs that cannot be mapped to the crystal structure (E5/266C4T (M89T), E17/1985T4C (L662R), E17/2005C4T (R669C)) were reported to increase drug resistance to two or more drugs whereas SNP E27/ 3322T4C (W1108R) (#ns31) decreased drug resistance.49 Curiously, in another study, the E17/2005C4T (R669C) SNP was reported to be associated with decreased resistance to paclitaxel and etoposide in transfected LLC-PK1 cells.53 The increased resistance by SNP E17/2005C4T (R669C) was found to be reversed by SNP E27/3322T4C (W1108R) (#ns31).49 In another study using HEK293T cells, SNP E27/3421T4A (S1141T) (#ns33) was reported to be less sensitive to cyclosporine A inhibition of BODIPY-FL-paclitaxel transport.50 It was suggested that as the resistance profiles of SNPs E27/3421T4A (S1141T) (#ns33), E27/3322T4C (W1108R) (#ns31) and diplotype E27/3322T4C (W1108R)- E17/ 2005C4T (R669C)) display the largest variation across substrates, the region where S1141T (#ns33) and W1108R (#ns31) reside might contribute to the substrate discrimination activity of P-gp.49 The 3D crystal structure reveals that both S1141T (#ns33) and W1108R (#ns31) reside at the C-terminal NBD of the P-gp protein with S1141T (#ns33) residing on the outer surface and W1108R (#ns31) residing in the interior of the NBD (Figures 2b, 4d and 4e and flash movie http:// pfs.nus.edu.sg/demo_src/abcb1.html).

A synonymous polymorphism in a common MDR1 (ABCB1) haplotype shapes protein function.
Biochim Biophys Acta. 2009 May;1794(5):860-71. Epub 2009 Mar 11., [PMID:19285158]

Abstract [show]
The MDR1 (ABCB1) gene encodes a membrane-bound transporter that actively effluxes a wide range of compounds from cells. The overexpression of MDR1 by multidrug-resistant cancer cells is a serious impediment to chemotherapy. MDR1 is expressed in various tissues to protect them from the adverse effect of toxins. The pharmacokinetics of drugs that are also MDR1 substrates also influence disease outcome and treatment efficacy. Although MDR1 is a well-conserved gene, there is increasing evidence that its polymorphisms affect substrate specificity. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) occur frequently and have strong linkage, creating a common haplotype at positions 1236C>T (G412G), 2677G>T (A893S) and 3435C>T (I1145I). The frequency of the synonymous 3435C>T polymorphism has been shown to vary significantly according to ethnicity. Existing literature suggests that the haplotype plays a role in response to drugs and disease susceptibility. This review summarizes recent findings on the 3435C>T polymorphism of MDR1 and the haplotype to which it belongs. A possible molecular mechanism of action by ribosome stalling that can change protein structure and function by altering protein folding is discussed.

153 A recent study by Gow et al. suggested that all of the SNPs they tested (N21D, S400N, R669C, A893S, A893T, S1141T, V1251I) produced small changes which in most cases are not statistically significant [59]. Login to comment
154 Another study using a yeast host to express human MDR1 SNPs (M89T, L662R, R669C, A893S, W1108R, S1141T) showed increased resistance to anthracyclines, actinomycin D and valinomycin. Login to comment

Impact of Genetic Polymorphisms of ABCB1 (MDR1, P-Glycoprotein) on Drug Disposition and Potential Clinical Implications: Update of the Literature.

Abstract [show]
ATP-binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1; P-glycoprotein; multidrug resistance protein 1) is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent efflux transporter located in the plasma membrane of many different cell types. Numerous structurally unrelated compounds, including drugs and environmental toxins, have been identified as substrates. ABCB1 limits the absorption of xenobiotics from the gut lumen, protects sensitive tissues (e.g. the brain, fetus and testes) from xenobiotics and is involved in biliary and renal secretion of its substrates. In recent years, a large number of polymorphisms of the ABCB1 [ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B (MDR/TAP), member 1] gene have been described. The variants 1236C>T (rs1128503, p.G412G), 2677G>T/A (rs2032582, p.A893S/T) and 3435C>T (rs1045642, p.I1145I) occur at high allele frequencies and create a common haplotype; therefore, they have been most widely studied. This review provides an overview of clinical studies published between 2002 and March 2015. In summary, the effect of ABCB1 variation on P-glycoprotein expression (messenger RNA and protein expression) and/or activity in various tissues (e.g. the liver, gut and heart) appears to be small. Although polymorphisms and haplotypes of ABCB1 have been associated with alterations in drug disposition and drug response, including adverse events with various ABCB1 substrates in different ethnic populations, the results have been majorly conflicting, with limited clinical relevance. Future research activities are warranted, considering a deep-sequencing approach, as well as well-designed clinical studies with appropriate sample sizes to elucidate the impact of rare ABCB1 variants and their potential consequences for effect sizes.
