Organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) IBI plays an important role in the hepatic uptake of various drugs. Because OATPIB1 is a site of drug drug interactions (DDIs), evaluating the inhibitory potential of drug candidates on OATP1B1 is required during drug development. For establishing a highly sensitive, high-throughput fluorescence-based OATP1B1 inhibition assay system, the present study focused on fluorescein (FL) and its derivatives and evaluated their uptake via OATP1B1 as well as OATP1B3 and OATP2B1 using the transporter expressing human embryonic kidney 293 cells. We identified 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein (DCF), 4',5'-dibromofluorescein (DBF), and Oregon green (OG) as good OATPIBI substrates with Km values of 5.29, 4.16, and 54.1 mu M and V-max values of 87.9, 48.1, and 187 pmol/min/mg protein, respectively. In addition to FL, fluo-3, and 8-fluorescein-cAMP, OG, and DBF were identified as OATP1B3 substrates. FL, OG, DCF, and DBF were identified as OATP2B1 substrates. Among the FL derivatives, DCF displayed the highest OATP1B1-mediated uptake. The K-i values of 14 compounds on OATP1B1 determined with DCF as a probe exhibited good agreement with those obtained using [H-3]estradio1-17 beta-glucuronidq (E(2)G) as a substrate, whereas [3H]estrone-3-sulfate and [H-3]sulfobromophthalein yielded higher K-i values for all inhibitors than DCF. Mutually competitive inhibition observed between DCF and E2G suggested that they share the same binding site on OATP1B1. Therefore, DCF as well as E2G can be used as sensitive probes for in vitro OATP1B1 inhibition assays, which will help mitigate the risk of false negative DDI predictions potentially caused by substrate-dependent K-i variations.
