Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Intracerebral accumulation of neurotoxic dicarboxylic acids (DCAs) plays an important pathophysiological role in glutaric aciduria type I and methylmalonic aciduria. Therefore, we investigated the transport characteristics of accumulating DCAs - glutaric (GA), 3-hydroxyglutaric (3-OH-GA) and methylmalonic acid (MMA) - across porcine brain capillary endothelial cells (pBCEC) and human choroid plexus epithelial cells (hCPEC) representing in vitro models of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the choroid plexus respectively. We identified expression of organic acid transporters 1 (OAT1) and 3 (OAT3) in pBCEC on mRNA and protein level. For DCAs tested, transport from the basolateral to the apical site (i.e. efflux) was higher than influx. Efflux transport of GA, 3-OH-GA, and MMA across pBCEC was Na(+)-dependent, ATP-independent, and was inhibited by the OAT substrates para-aminohippuric acid (PAH), estrone sulfate, and taurocholate, and the OAT inhibitor probenecid. Members of the ATP-binding cassette transporter family or the organic anion transporting polypeptide family, namely MRP2, P-gp, BCRP, and OATP1B3, did not mediate transport of GA, 3-OH-GA or MMA confirming the specificity of efflux transport via OATs. In hCPEC, cellular import of GA was dependent on Na(+)-gradient, inhibited by NaCN, and unaffected by probenecid suggesting a Na(+)-dependent DCA transporter. Specific transport of GA across hCPEC, however, was not found. In conclusion, our results indicate a low but specific efflux transport for GA, 3-OH-GA, and MMA across pBCEC, an in vitro model of the BBB, via OAT1 and OAT3 but not across hCPEC, an in vitro model of the choroid plexus.
