Abstract
Cilostazol undergoes extensive liver metabolism. However, the transporter-mediated hepatic disposition of cilostazol remains unknown. The present study was performed to investigate the hepatic uptake and biliary excretion of cilostazol and its metabolites (OPC-13015 and OPC-13213) using rat liver and human transporter-transfected cells in vitro. Cilostazol uptake by rat liver slices and isolated rat hepatocytes exhibited time-, concentration-, and temperature dependency and was decreased by Oatp inhibitors, which suggested that Oatp was involved in the hepatic uptake of cilostazol. Cilostazol uptake in rat hepatocytes, OATP1B1-, and OATP1B3-HEK293 cells indicated a saturable process with Km values of 2.7 μM, 17.7 μM, and 2.7 μM, respectively. Epigallocatechin gallate, cyclosporin A, rifampicin, and telmisartan inhibited cilostazol uptake in OATP1B1/1B3-HEK293 cells with Ki values close to their clinical plasma concentration, which suggested possible drug-drug interactions in humans via OATP1B1/1B3. Moreover, the cumulative biliary excretion of cilostazol and OPC-13015 was significantly decreased by quinidine, bilirubin, and novobiocin in perfused rat liver, but OPC-13213 biliary excretion was only inhibited by novobiocin, which suggested that the efflux transporters Mrp2, Bcrp, and P-gp were involved in the biliary excretion of cilostazol and its metabolites. Our findings indicated that multiple transporters were involved in the hepatic disposition of cilostazol and its metabolites.
