The aim of this study was to determine whether sphingoid bases that originated from various dietary sources, such as mammals, plants, and fungi, are substrates for P-glycoprotein in differentiated Caco-2 cells, which are used as a model of intestinal epithelial cells. In Caco-2 cells, the uptake of sphingosine, the most common sphingoid base found in mammals, was significantly higher at physiological temperatures than those of cis/trans-8-sphingenine, trans-4, cisitrans-8-sphingadienine, 9-methyl-trans-4, trans-8-sphingadienine, or sphinganine. Verapamil, a potent P-glycoprotein inhibitor, increased the cellular accumulation of sphingoid bases, except for sphingosine, in a dose-dependent manner. Incubation with 1 mum digoxin for 48 h caused up-regulation of multidrug-resistance (MDR)1 mRNA and decreased the accumulation of sphingoid bases in Caco-2 cells, except for sphingosine. Thus P-glycoprotein probably contributes to the selective absorption of sphingosine from dietary sphingolipids in the digestive tract.
