Gadoxetate is a new hepatobiliary magnetic resonance imaging contrast
agent. It is specifically taken up by hepatocytes, and its uptake can
be inhibited by the coadministration of bromosulfophthalein, suggesting
an involvement of one or several of the cloned organic anion
transporting polypeptides Oatp1, Oatp2, and/or OATP. In this study, we
demonstrated saturable uptake of gadoxetate by Oatp1 cRNA-injected
Xenopus laevis oocytes
(Km ~ 3.3 mM). In contrast, gadoxetate was not taken up by Oatp2 or OATP cRNA-injected oocytes. Oatp1-mediated gadoxetate uptake (100 µM) could be inhibited by 10 µM bromosulfophthalein (45%), 200 µM taurocholate (92%), 100 µM
rifamycin SV (97%), and 100 µM rifampicin (51%). These results show
that gadoxetate is a low-affinity substrate of Oatp1. Oatp1-mediated gadoxetate transport demonstrated a similar apparent
Km value and cis-inhibition
pattern as previously determined in rats in vivo, indicating that Oatp1
is significantly involved in gadoxetate uptake into rat liver.
