- W4229443523 abstract "Tacrolimus (TAC) was widely used in various renal diseases while high recurrence rate and high expense restricted its applications. Traditional herbal medicine has become increasingly popular as an adjuvant therapy to minimize the adverse effects of TAC. Colquhounia root tablet (CRT), a prescribed drug prepared from the water extract of the peeled root of Tripterygium hypoglaucum (H. Lév.) Hutch., showed excellent anti-inflammatory, analgesic and immunosuppressive pharmacological properties. TAC used in combination with CRT was substantially more efficacious and safer than the monotherapy for the treatment of nephrotic syndrome. However, studies on their herb-drug interaction were scanty.The study was proposed to examine the effect of CRT on the pharmacokinetics of TAC in rats and identify the key natural constituents in CRT that affected the metabolism of TAC.TAC was orally and intravenously administered to rats alone or in combination with CRT and the pharmacokinetic parameters of TAC were compared. After pretreatment with CRT for 15 d, the expressions of the drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), drug transporters (DTs) and nuclear receptors (NRs) were determined by polymerase chain reaction and western blotting and compared with the control group. The hepatic microsomal incubation system was employed to confirm the inhibitory effects of CRT and its major components on rat cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A2. The roles of the primary components in the regulation of human CYP3A4 and mouse P-gp activities were evaluated by using docking analysis.The blood concentrations of TAC were significantly increased in a dose- and pretreatment time-dependent manner after combined administration of CRT. The maximal effect was found at 300 mg/kg (43.70 ± 8.77 ng/mL and 141.45 ± 21.58 h·ng/mL) in a single dose run and the pharmacokinetic parameters gradually returned to the normal levels at 24 h interval of long-term CRT pretreatment. In contrast, CRT had no effect on the pharmacokinetics of intravenous TAC. Further study indicated that the mRNA and protein expressions of DMEs and DTs, such as CYP3A1, CYP3A2, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 in rat intestine and liver were down-regulated, whereas the expressions of NRs like constitutive androstane receptor and pregnane X receptor were up-regulated after multiple oral doses of CRT. Molecular docking showed the binding potency of five CRT major constituents with both human CYP3A4 and mouse P-gp. Celastrol, wilforgine and wilforine were the strongest inhibitors towards midazolam metabolism in rat liver microsomes, with the 50% inhibition concentrations being at 8.33 μM, 22.18 μM and 22.22 μM, respectively.Our results revealed that co-dosing of CRT could lead to a significant increase in blood concentration of TAC and this effect could be ascribed to the resultant co-regulation of DMEs, DTs and NRs. Our study provided an experimental basis for the combination use of CRT and TAC in clinical practice." @default.
