P-glycoproteins from the ATP-binding cassette transporter family are responsible for drug evasion by bacterial pathogens and neoplastic cells. More recently, these multidrug resistance transporters have been investigated for contributions to drug resistance in nematode parasites. In this study, we cloned and characterized the P-glycoprotein Tca-Pgp-11.1 from Toxocara canis, the canine intestinal ascarid. Large numbers of Tca-Pgp-11 transcripts were observed in the intestine of adult male and female worms. Heterologous expression studies confirmed sensitivity to known P-glycoprotein inhibitors. Interestingly, the competitive inhibitor verapamil had lower IC50 values than newer generation inhibitors that are designed to allosterically modulate mammalian P-glycoprotein. Consistent with other nematode P-glycoproteins, Tca-Pgp-11.1 was sensitive to ivermectin and selamectin but not moxidectin. Taken together, our data suggests that T. canis P-glycoproteins represent nematode-specific drug targets that could be exploited to enhance efficacy of existing anthelmintics.
