Esculetin (ET)-7-O-glucuronide (ET-G) and 4-methylesculetin (4-ME)-7-O-glucuronide (4-ME-G) are the main glucuronide of ET and 4-ME, respectively. The disposition mediated by efflux transporters for glucuronide has significant influence on the pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy of bioactive compounds. In the current study, transporter gene knockout mice and Caco-2 cells were used to explore the effects of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) on the disposition of ET-G and 4-ME-G. After oral or i.v. administration of ET and 4-ME, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last data point or infinity values of ET, 4-ME, and their glucuronides (ET-G and 4-ME-G) were remarkably and significantly increased in most Bcrp1(-/-) and Mrp2(-/-) mice compared with those in wild-type FVB mice (P < 0.05). These results were accompanied with a significant increase of maximum plasma concentration values (P < 0.05). In Caco-2 monolayers, the efflux and clearance rates of ET-G and 4-ME-G were markedly reduced by the BCRP inhibitor Ko143 and MRP2 inhibitor MK571 on the apical side (P < 0.05). In an intestinal perfusion study, the excretion of ET-G was significantly decreased in perfusate and increased in plasma in Bcrp1(-/-) mice compared with those in wild-type FVB mice (P < 0.05). The 4-ME-G concentration was also decreased in the bile in transporter gene knockout mice. ET and 4-ME showed good permeability in both Caco-2 monolayers [apparent permeability (P-app) >= 0.59 x 10(-5) cm/s] and duodenum (P-app >= 1.81). In conclusion, BCRP and MRP2 are involved in excreting ET-G and 4-ME-G. ET and 4-ME are most likely absorbed via passive diffusion in the intestines.
