Breast cancer resistance protein (Bcrp) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette membrane transporter family, which is expressed apically in liver, kidney, and intestine epithelium. Recent reports suggest that in addition to xenobiotics, porphyrins, and food toxins, Bcrp can also transport bile acids and, therefore, may participate in the adaptive response to cholestasis. Bile duct ligation (BDL), an experimental model of obstructive cholestasis, was performed in male wild-type (WT) and Bcrp knockout (KO) mice. An initial time course of 3, 7, and 14 days of BDL in WT mice revealed that Bcrp expression was significantly reduced in liver but increased in ileum by 7 days. Subsequent experiments using 7-day BDL in WT and Bcrp KO mice demonstrated that there was no difference in liver necrosis, serum glutamic pyruvate aminotransferase, bilirubin, or bile acid levels in serum, hepatic tissue, bile, urine, or feces between the two groups. Protein expression levels for liver organic solute transporter (Ost) ? and multidrug resistance protein 1 and kidney multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp) 2, Mrp3, and Mrp4 were significantly greater in the sham Bcrp KO versus sham WT mice. The expression of Mrp2 and Mrp4 in KO kidneys was further increased after BDL. In contrast, the adaptive response of transporters to BDL in the liver was similar in KO and WT BDL mice, including Ost? and Ost? expression, which increased in liver and kidney but decreased in the ileum. These findings suggest that Bcrp does not have a significant role in the adaptive response to cholestasis in the liver but may be more important for solute export in the kidney and intestine.
