Zusammenfassung
Die Bioverfügbarkeit von Medikamenten wird wesentlich durch die intestinale Resorption
und den hepatischen „first-pass”-Effekt determiniert. Hierbei muss die betreffende
Substanz mehrere Membranbarrieren überwinden, um in den systemischen Blutkreislauf
zu gelangen. Dazu gehören die luminale (dem Darmlumen zugewandte) und die basolaterale
(der Blutseite zugewandte) Membran der Darmepithelzelle. Diejenigen Substanzen, die
einem hohen hepatischen „first-pass”-Effekt unterliegen, werden über die basolaterale
(sinusoidale) Hepatozytenmembran aufgenommen, in der Leberzelle biotransformiert
und über die kanalikuläre (apikale) Membran in die Galle ausgeschieden. Jede der
genannten Membranbarrieren besitzt spezialisierte Transportproteine, die den Stofftransport
über die Membran bewerkstelligen. Eines der am besten charakterisierten Transporter
ist das P-Glykoprotein MDR1 („multidrug resistance gene product”, Gensymbol ABCB1 ). MDR1 vermittelt in der apikalen Membran von Enterozyten den Rücktransport von
Xenobiotika in das Darmlumen, noch bevor sie das Pfortaderblut erreichen. Eine Zunahme
der MDR1-Proteinmenge kann die Bioverfügbarkeit von Substanzen, die MDR1-Substrate
darstellen, entsprechend reduzieren. Beispiele hierfür sind Digoxin, Ciclosporin
und Paclitaxel. Viele Xenobiotika wie zum Beispiel Rifampicin, Phenobarbital, Statine
und Johanniskraut sind in der Lage, die MDR1 Expression transkriptionell zu induzieren.
Das MDR1 -Gen bindet den nukleären Rezeptor PXR („pregnane X receptor”), der nach Aktivierung
durch die genannten Liganden die Gentranskription steigert. Weitere durch PXR regulierte
Gene sind das Cytochrom P450 3A4, der Digoxintransporter OATP2 so ok?(Slc21a5 ) der basolateralen Hepatozytenmembran und die Xenobiotika-Effluxpumpe MRP2 (ABCC2 ) der kanalikulären Hepatozytenmembran. PXR ist somit ein entscheidender „Xenosensor”,
der je nach Xenobiotikum die entgiftenden Transport- und Enzymsysteme des Darms und
der Leber aktivieren kann.
Summary
Major determinants of the bioavailability of drugs are the degree of intestinal absorption
and hepatic first-pass effect. Drugs need to overcome several membrane barriers before
reaching the systemic circulation. These include the luminal (facing the intestine)
and basolateral (facing the blood) membrane of intestinal epithelial cells. Substances
that undergo first-pass metabolism are taken up across the basolateral (sinusoidal)
hepatocyte membrane, biotransformed within hepatocytes and excreted across the canalicular
(apical) membrane into bile. Each of these membrane barriers possesses an array of
specialized transport proteins that mediate substrate transport across the membrane.
One of the best characterized transporters is the P-glycoprotein MDR1 (multidrug
resistance gene product, gene symbol ABCB1). MDR1 is expressed at the apical surface
of enterocytes where it mediates the efflux of xenobiotics into the intestinal lumen
before these can access the portal circulation. An increase in MDR1 expression reduces
the bioavailability of drugs that are MDR1 substrates. Examples include digoxin,
cyclosporin A and paclitaxel. Numerous xenobiotics such as rifampin, phenobarbital,
statins and St. John’s wort induce MDR1 transcriptionally. The MDR1 gene binds the
nuclear receptor PXR (pregnane X receptor) that induces gene transcription following
activation by these ligands. Other PXR regulated genes include cytochrome P450 3A4,
the digoxin transporter Oatp2 (Slc21a5) of the basolateral and the xenobiotic efflux
pump MRP2 (ABCC2) of the canalicular hepatocyte membrane. PXR is thus an important
„xenosensor” that mediates drug induced activation of the detoxifying transport and
enzyme systems in liver and intestine.
