- Abstract
- Hepatic uptake clearance has been measured in suspended human hepatocytes (SHH). Plated human hepatocytes (PHH) after short-term culturing are increasingly employed to study hepatic transport driven mainly by its higher throughput. To know pros/cons of both systems, the hepatic uptake clearances of several organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B substrates were compared between PHH and SHH by determining the initial uptake velocities or through dynamic model-based analyses. For cerivastatin, pitavastatin and rosuvastatin, initial uptake clearances (PSinf) obtained using PHH were comparable to those using SHH, while cell-to-medium concentration (C/M) ratios were 2.7- to 5.4-fold higher. For pravastatin and dehydropravastatin, hydrophilic compounds with low uptake/cellular binding, their PSinf and C/M ratio in PHH were 1.8- to 3.2-fold lower than those in SHH. These hydrophilic substrates are more prone to wash-off during the uptake study using PHH, which may explain the apparently lower uptake than SHH. The C/M ratios obtained using PHH were stable over an extended time, making PHH suitable to estimate the C/M ratios and hepatocyte-to-medium unbound concentration ratios (K-p,K-uu). In conclusion, PHH is useful in evaluating hepatic uptake/efflux clearances and K-p,K- uu of OATP1B substrates in a high-throughput manner, however, a caution is warranted for hydrophilic drugs with low uptake/cellular binding.
