The hepatic uptake of glucuronic acid and sulfate conjugates of
6-hydroxy-5,7-dimethyl-2-methylamino-4-(3-pyridylmethyl)
benzothiazole (E3040), a dual inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase and
thromboxane A2 synthetase, was investigated in rats. The
biliary excretion clearance values for the glucuronide and the sulfate,
obtained after i.v. administration of E3040, were similar and
corresponded to approximately 30% of the hepatic blood flow rate. The
influx clearance values of E3040 conjugates in the presence of 3%
bovine serum albumin, measured by a multiple indicator dilution method
in the perfused liver, were 1.20 ml/min/g liver for the glucuronide and
0.74 ml/min/g liver for the sulfate, which were twice and equal to the
normal hepatic plasma flow rate, respectively, which suggests the
presence of an efficient transport system(s). The uptake of E3040
conjugates into the isolated hepatocytes is mediated by
Na+-independent active transport system(s), which is
inhibited by dibromosulfophthalein and bile acids. The uptake for the
sulfate had high-affinity and high-capacity transport activity
(Km = 25 µM; Vmax = 7.8 nmol/min/106 cells) compared with that for the glucuronide
(Km = 59 µM; Vmax = 2.2 nmol/min/106 cells). The uptakes of E3040 conjugates
(glucuronide, sulfate) exhibited a mutual competitive inhibition. It is
suggested that both conjugates share a multispecific organic anion
transporter located on the sinusoidal membrane.
