The active metabolite of the chemotherapeutic irinotecan, SN-38, is detoxified through glucuronidation and then excreted into the gastrointestinal tract. Intestinal bacteria convert the glucuronidated metabolite back to the toxic SN-38 using β-glucuronidase (GUS), resulting in debilitating diarrhea. Inhibiting GUS activity may relieve this side-effect of irinotecan. In this study, we sought to determine whether any known drugs have GUS inhibitory activity. We screened a library of FDA-approved drugs with a cell-free biochemical enzyme assay using purified bacterial GUS. After triage, five drugs were confirmed to inhibit purified bacterial GUS. Three of these were the monoamine oxidase inhibitors nialamide, isocarboxazid and phenelzine with average IC50 values for inhibiting GUS of 71, 128 and 2,300 nM. The tricyclic antidepressant amoxapine (IC50 = 388 nM) and the antimalarial mefloquine (IC50 = 1.2 μM) also had activity. Nialamide, isocarboxazid and amoxapine had no significant activity against purified mammalian GUS, but showed potent activity for inhibiting endogenous GUS activity in a cell-based assay using living intact E. coli with average IC50 values of 17, 336 and 119 nM, respectively. Thus, nialamide, isocarboxazid, and amoxapine have potential to be repurposed as therapeutics to reduce diarrhea associated with irinotecan chemotherapy and warrant further investigation for this use.
