2 L" Q/ }2 b5 h" p* Y1 j& `8 u+ F We have isolated and characterized a novel human and rat organic anion transporter subtype, OATP-D. The isolated cDNA from human brain encodes a polypeptide of 710 amino acids ( M r 76,534) with 12 predicted transmembrane domains. The rat clone encodes 710 amino acids ( M r 76,821) with 97.6% amino acid sequence homology with human OATP-D. Human and rat OATP-D have moderate amino acid sequence homology with LST-1/rlst-1, the rat oatp family, the prostaglandin transporter, and moat1/MOAT1/KIAA0880/OATP-B. Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that OATP-D is branched in a different position from all known organic anion transporters. OATP-D transports prostaglandin E 1 ( K m 48.5 nM), prostaglandin E 2 ( K m 55.5 nM), and prostaglandin F 2, suggesting that, functionally, OATP-D encodes a protein that has similar characteristics to those of the prostaglandin transporter. Rat OATP-D also transports prostaglandins. The expression pattern of OATP-D mRNA was abundant mainly in the heart, testis, brain, and some cancer cells. Immunohistochemical analysis further revealed that rat OATP-D is widely expressed in the vascular, renal, and reproductive system at the protein level. These results suggest that OATP-D plays an important role in translocating prostaglandins in specialized tissues and cells. , V2 J9 L e5 R' q: |6 @5 p

EICOSANOIDS COMPRISING VARIOUS oxygenated metabolites of arachidonic acid such as prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes exert a variety of physiological and pathophysiological actions ( 17, 44 ). PGs are distributed in virtually all mammalian tissues. In the central nervous system, PGs are involved in many functions, such as fever, sleep, pain, and pituitary secretion ( 10, 19, 50 ). Many of these PG actions are mediated through its specific prostanoid receptors ( 38 ). Although PGs are widely distributed in the parenchyma of the brain ( 12, 37 ), they diffuse poorly through the lipid bilayer ( 7, 11 ). In addition, no expression of PGD 2 (DP) receptor mRNA was detected in the parenchyma of the brain ( 14, 41 ). These data suggest that carrier-mediated transport of PGs is involved.

Recently, we and another group have isolated many cDNAs for Na -independent organic anion transporter polypeptide (OATP) from humans and rats (reviewed in Ref. 4 ). All OATPs are classified within the family of solute carrier (SLC) 21, which is a gene symbol designated by the Human Gene Nomenclature Committee Database ( http://www.gene.ucl.ac.uk/nomenclature/ ). Rat and human PG transporter (PGT) ( 26, 33 ) are also isolated and belong to the OATP/LST family because of the structural homology with that of the OATP/LST family. Despite the homology, the pharmacological characterizations are relatively different between PGT and the other members of the OATP/LST family. The OATP/LST family are apt to carry organic anions, whereas PGTs carry PGs exclusively.

A human hippocampal cDNA library was constructed, and 8 x 10 5 independent clones were hybridized with an Eco RI- Hin cII 720-bp fragment of human LST-1 in a formamide (25%) solution at 42°C as described elsewhere ( 1 - 3, 39 ). Filters were washed in 2 x SSC and 0.1% SDS at 50°C for 1 h. Two positive clones were isolated and rescued into pBluescript SK(-). The cDNA inserts of these clones showed an identical restriction enzyme digestion pattern except for some length differences in their 5'-portion. A clone containing the largest cDNA insert (pHPG5-2) was chosen for further analysis. A rat brain cDNA library (2 x 10 5 independent clones) was also screened with the fragment of pHPG5-2 ( Nco I- Nco I, 765 bp). Among 10 isolated clones, a representative clone (prPG2-1) was further analyzed. The sequence was determined using an ABI Prism 377 DNA sequencer (PerkinElmer, Foster City, CA). K+ f' Z% p, B9 y

Functional expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes. The capped RNA of pHPG5-2 or prPG2-1 was transcribed in vitro. X. laevis oocytes were prepared as described previously ( 1, 2, 39 ). Defolliculated oocytes were microinjected with 10 ng of transcribed RNA and cultured for 72 h in a modified Barth's medium at 18°C. The uptake of radiolabeled chemicals was measured at room temperature in a medium containing (in mM) 100 NaCl, 2 KCl, 1 CaCl 2, 1 MgCl 2, and 10 HEPES, pH 7.5. After being washed with the same buffer, each oocyte was dissolved in 500 µl of 10% SDS and 4 ml of scintillation fluid and the radioactivity was counted in a liquid scintillation counter (Packard, Downers Grove, IL). Water-injected oocytes were used as controls. To evaluate the substrate specificity, the uptake rate of [ 3 H]PGE 2 (15 nM) by human OATP-D-expressing oocytes was determined in the presence of 1.5, 15, and 150 nM of inhibitors.

These peptides were linked to the maleimide-activated key hole limpet hemocyanin (KHL; Pierce, IL). The KHL-linked peptide (1 mg/injection) was emulsified by mixing with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant and injected into female rabbits. After a booster injection, rabbits were killed at 10 wk. The antibodies were affinity-purified using CNBr-activated Sepharose CL-4B (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Piscataway, NJ) coupled with the synthetic peptides according to standard procedures ( 5, 24 ).

Immunohistochemistry. Adult Wister rats weighing 250-300 g were killed as described above, and the systemic circulation was perfused by intra-aortic administration of 4% periodate-lysine-4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. Each frozen block was sectioned at a thickness of 3 µm ( 24 ). After incubation in PBS containing 1% bovine serum albumin for 10 min, the sections were incubated with the affinity-purified primary antibody against rat OATP-D or rat PGT, at a final concentration of 2 µg/ml at 40°C for overnight. The sections were then incubated in 0.3% H 2 O 2 in methanol for inhibition of endogenous peroxidase activities. Subsequently, the sections were incubated with an Envision peroxidase rabbit kit (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA) for 40 min. The sections were then washed three times with PBS and treated with DAB solution (0.01% 3',3-diaminobenzamidine tetrahydrochloride, Tris·HCl, pH 7.5, and 0.002% H 2 O 2 ). To identify the specificity of the antibodies, the primary antibody against rat OATP-D or rat PGT was preabsorbed with 8 mg each of pure polypeptide or exchanged polypeptide overnight before use.

Isolation and structural analysis of human and rat OATP-D. The isolated cDNA encodes a novel human PGT subtype, human OATP-D, consisting of 710 amino acids ( M r 76,534). Hydrophobicity analysis of the predicted human OATP-D protein suggested the presence of 12 transmembrane domains (TM) ( Fig. 1 A ). There are seven putative N-glycosylation sites in the predicted extracellular loops, three potential phosphorylation sites for cAMP-dependent protein kinase, and two potential phosphorylation sites for protein kinase C in the intracellular portions ( 27, 28 ) ( Fig. 1 A ). Sequence homology analysis revealed a moderate sequence similarity to the oatp/LST family ( 1, 2, 5, 23, 25, 29, 34, 36, 39, 40, 43 ) and PGT ( 26, 33 ). Recently, Tamai et al. ( 46 ) isolated OATP-D from adult human brain. The human sequence is 100% identical to human OATP-D. Compared with the OATP/LST family, the overall amino acid sequence identities were 36.2% to human PGT ( 33 ), 32.1% to rat pgt ( 26 ), 33.8% to oatp1 ( 23 ), 35.2% to oatp2 ( 3, 40 ), 35.4% to oatp3 ( 1 ), 32.9% to OAT-K1 ( 43 ), 32.7% to OAT-K2 ( 34 ), 33.7% to human OATP ( 29 ), 32.0% to human LST-1 ( 2 ), 33.3% to human LST-2 ( 5 ), 31.7% to rat rlst-1 ( 25 ), 33.0% to rat moat1 ( 39 ), and 32.0% to human MOAT1/KIAA0880/OATP-B ( 36, 46 ).

The isolated clone encoded 710 amino acids ( M r 76,821) with 97.6% amino acid sequence homology with human OATP-D. The high structural similarity to human OATP-D and the function analysis (discussed below) revealed that the prPG2-1 clone encodes a rat counterpart. All the motifs except one potential protein kinase C phosphorylation site at the third intracellular loop between TM VI and VII were conserved. The phylogenetic tree analysis showed that human OATP-D and rat OATP-D can be localized differently from the oatp family, LST-1/rlst-1, the PGT, and moat1/KIAA0880/OATP-B ( Fig. 1 B ). These data suggest that OATP-D can be categorized as a new subtype of organic anion transporter.2 n9 I3 H& I1 f* P

Pharmacological characterization. Among the putative substrates tested, the oocytes injected with human OATP-D cRNA transported PGE 1 and PGE 2 ( Table 1 ). PGF 2 was also weakly but significantly transported. On the other hand, other eicosanoids [PGD 2, iloprost, thromboxane B 2 (TBX 2 )] were not transported. These human OATP-D-mediated PGE 1 and PGE 2 uptakes were saturable with increasing substrate concentrations. The apparent K m values for PGE 1 and PGE 2 of human OATP-D were 48.5 ± 12.2 and 55.5 ± 6.7 nM, respectively ( Fig. 3, A and B ). These human OATP-D-mediated PGE 1 and PGE 2 uptakes were not inhibited by replacing the extracellular sodium with choline (data not shown). Neither taurocholate nor methotrexate, both of which are preferable substrates for the oatp/LST family, was transported ( Table 1 ). Despite the structural difference between human OATP-D and human PGT, the preferable substrate for human OATP-D was similar to that of the PGT. To further characterize the substrate specificity of human OATP-D, a cis -inhibitory experiment was performed.1 a0 |6 p9 c0 N: {

As in Fig. 4, unlabeled PGE 1, PGE 2, and PGF 2 (1.5, 15, and 150 nM) showed dose-dependent inhibitory effects on human OATP-D-mediated PGE 2 uptake (15 nM). At the highest concentration (150 nM), PGE 2 uptake was completely inhibited by PGE 1, PGE 2, and PGF 2. On the other hand, PGD 2 and PAH, which were not transported by human OATP-D, did not show a significant inhibitory effect at the concentrations of 1.5 and 15 nM. Even at the highest concentration tested (150 nM), PGD 2 and PAH did not abolish the uptake of PGE 2. Furthermore, taurocholate did not significantly inhibit human OATP-D-mediated [ 3 H]PGE 2 uptake at any concentration.

Immunohistochemistry. Northern blot analysis of rat OATP-D indicated that rat OATP-D is expressed widely. To elucidate differences in the tissue distribution of rat PGT and rat OATP-D, immunohistochemical analysis was performed in cardiorespiratory systems ( Fig. 6 A ) and in reproductive systems ( Fig. 6 B ). Previous work showed that the rat PGT was expressed in arterial endothelial cells ( 49 ). Rat PGT and rat OATP-D immunostaining was detected on endothelial cells of the aorta ( Fig. 6 A ). In the heart, significant rat PGT and rat OATP-D immunostaining was detected on cardiac muscle cells, endothelial cells of left ventricular endocardium, and endothelial cells of the coronary artery. With reference to cardiac muscle cells, rat OATP-D was expressed mainly on endothelial cells of the coronary artery. In the lung, rat PGT and rat OATP-D immunostaining was detected on alveolar epithelial cells. In the trachea, rat PGT and rat OATP-D immunostaining was detected in the epithelium of the mucosa of the trachea. Rat OATP-D immunostaining was more significant than rat PGT in the lung and trachea. In the testis, rat PGT and rat OATP-D immunostaining was detected on spermatozoa ( Fig. 6 B ) and, at a higher magnification, signals were detected at the tails of spermatozoa (data not shown). In the epididymis, signals of rat PGT were detected on the epithelium of the ductus epididymis, and rat OATP-D immunostaining was not detected.

" w G$ \0 p! T) H4 s2 TWe have identified the human and rat transporter OATP-D. Isolated human and rat cDNAs were highly conserved and belong to the organic anion transporter OATP/LST family. The oatp/LST family recognizes various compounds and transports bile acid (taurocholate, cholate, bromosulfophthalein); thyroid hormones [ L -thyroxine (T 4 ), 3,3',5-triiodo- L -thyronine (T 3 ), L -3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3)]; conjugated steroid hormones (estradiol-17 sulfate, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate); eicosanoids (PGD 2, PGE 1, PGE 2, PGF 2, TXB 2 ); and many xenobiotics (pravastatin, a potent hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitor, digoxin, methotrexate), etc. Compared with the broad substrate specificity of the oatp/LST family, the prostaglandin transporter PGT transports eicosanoids (PGD 2, PGE 1, PGE 2, PGF 2, TXB 2 ) but does not transport taurocholate. OATP-D transports PGE 1, PGE 2, and PGF 2 in a sodium-independent manner. Further pharmacological characterization revealed that OATP-D-mediated [ 3 H]PGE 2 uptake was markedly inhibited by PGE 1, PGE 2, and PGF 2, which are preferable substrates for OATP-D. In contrast, taurocholate and PAH, which were not well transported as substrates, showed only slight inhibition even at the highest concentration. These data suggest that PGs are preferential substrates for OATPD, although the overall homology of OATP-D among the oatp/LST family as well as PGT is relatively in the same range ( 30%). Recently, Tamai et al. ( 46 ) reported that human OATP-D transports benzylpenicillin as well as PGE 2; however, the uptake ratio of benzylpenicillin is 1.7-fold compared with control experiments.

6 p/ m U% [4 q$ _& P+ ^/ tIt is interesting that OATP-D and PGT exhibit similar properties in substrate selectivity, although they are structurally distinct. There are eight similar regions: TM II; the intracellular domain between TM II and TM III; TM III; TM V; the part of extracellular domain between TM V and TM VI; TM VI; the part of extracellular domain between TM IX and TM X; and TM XI. The regions also have high homologies with other members of the OATP/LST family ( 3, 16, 26, 29, 33, 34, 36 ). However, the domain around TM XI is similar in PGT and OATP-D but not similar to that of the OATP/LST family. Thus the domain around TM XI of human OATP-D or human PGT is a candidate region that determines the affinity for PGs.

Compared with human OATP-D, human PGT mRNA is ubiquitously expressed and very abundant expression was seen in the heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas, testis, and ovary ( 33 ). In the rat, a difference in the expression pattern was also seen between PGT and OATPD. Rat OATP-D mRNA is detected in the heart, brain, lung, and kidney. As in humans, rat PGT mRNA is expressed in almost all tissues, especially the lung and liver ( 26 ).

Further experiments are necessary to clarify the similarity and dissimilarity of between OAT-D and PGT. It is also possible that the regulation of transcription is different between OATP-D and PGT. The 5'-flanking sequence of the human PGT gene has the typical TATA box consensus ( 33 ), whereas there is no TATA box in the 5'-flanking sequence of human OATP-D on chromosome 15, which is consistent with the sequence reported by Tamai et al. ( 46 ) (GenBank accession no. AB031050).

PGT and OATP-D are expressed in vascular endothelium. It is well known that prostanoids are local regulators of vascular tone and are produced in the endothelium. Although PGs are produced in the endothelium, PGs are thought to diffuse poorly through the plasma membrane ( 7, 11 ), and responsive molecule(s) involved in membrane transport should be addressed. In addition, steady laminar shear stress induced human PGT expression in cultured human vascular endothelium ( 49 ). These data suggest that PGT and OATP-D play an important role in the maintenance of cardiovascular homeostasis as regulators of PG transport.

OATP-D is also expressed in the coronary artery and myocardium. PGE 2 receptor subtype EP 3, which inhibits adenylyl cyclase, was upregulated in the ischemic heart of pigs ( 21 ). The expression of OATP-D in vascular endothelial cells also suggests a role of transporting PGs in the cells.

PGs are synthesized in the reproductive system. The biosynthesis of PGE 1 was demonstrated not in the testis but in the seminal vesicles ( 18 ). The expression of OATP-D and PGT in the spermatozoa is in agreement with this finding. Mice deficient in cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 or EP 2 receptor showed a failure in fertilization. COX-2 -/- mice showed a disability in uterial implantation ( 32 ). Cumulus expansion became abortive in EP 2 -/- mice ( 20 ). Milne et al. ( 35 ) described that the menstrual cycle is associated with the coexpression of PGE synthase, PGE 2, EP 2 receptor, and EP 4 receptor in the endometrium. They detected the expression of PGE synthase and PGE 2 synthesis on glandular epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and stromal cells in the human endometrium. The findings of OATP-D and PGT in the reproductive organs suggest that these transporters play important roles in regulating the local concentration of PGs in the reproductive system, implying their roles in conception and menstruation.!

/ R6 e: Q0 M f. c* G; OOATP-D is expressed in the distal and collecting tubules of the kidney. PGE 2 is the dominant synthesized eicosanoid in the kidney. All types of PGE 2 receptors are expressed in the kidney. Because EP 1 -receptor expression predominates in the collecting ducts and EP 3 receptors are expressed in the thick ascending limbs and collecting ducts, PGE 2 secreted through OATP-D appears to contribute to body-fluid balance, including both natriuresis and vasopressin-mediated water-salt transport ( 8, 15 ). EP 4 receptors are expressed in the glomerulus and collecting duct ( 9 ). EP 3 and EP 4 receptors are associated with the regulation of the vasoconstriction of afferent arterioles ( 47 ), and PGE 2 stimulates renin release via the macula densa ( 22 ). PGF 2 is also synthesized mildly in the glomerulus. Both PGT and OATP-D are able to transport PGE 2 and PGF 2. OATP-D and PGT expressed on afferent arterioles are speculated to control tubuloglomerular feedback and the renin release.$ g( m* b! R1 X9 P ?+ f

It has been recognized that PGE 2 and PGF 2 are rapidly cleared by a single passage through the pulmonary or other vascular beds in vivo ( 6, 13 ). The similar expression of PGT and OATP-D in alveolar cells suggests their involvement in the elimination of PGs.
& v" Y' f6 j1 A# t: x
$ M* P0 L! s2 k; k7 RBecause the arcuate nucleus regulates gonadal hormone secretion by PGs, the expression of OATP-D in the arcuate nucleus may have an important role in hormonal regulation. As opposed to OATP-D, PGT is located around the periventricular nucleus but not in the arcuate nucleus. The combined expression of PGT and OATP-D in the choroid plexus and ventricle suggests that PGT may be involved in regulation of cerebrospinal homeostasis.

Northern blot analysis in cancer cell lines showed that expression of OATP-D mRNA could be detected in the all cell lines tested. The higher expression of mRNA was detected in cell lines of solid-type (or epithelial) cancer than the soluble-type neoplasia like leukemia. Tamai et al. ( 46 ) also showed by RT-PCR that mRNA of OATP-D was detected in almost cell lines of solid cancer, whereas PGT mRNA was not detected in cancer cell lines.

One of PGs synthases, COX-2, is not detected in most normal tissues, but it is induced by mitogenic and inflammatory stimuli, which results in enhanced synthesis of PGs in neoplastic and inflamed tissues, and selective COX-2 inhibitors have been reported to reduce the formation of cancers derived from many organs in animals and human (reviewed in Ref. 37 ). It is interesting that OATP-D and COX-2 are simultaneously upregulated in cancer cells, although it is still unclear whether OATP-D is associated with cell function or PG production.
