PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the regulation of renal organic ion transporters in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and its relation with indoxyl sulfate (IS), a uremic toxin. METHODS: The IS concentrations in the serum and kidney were monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography. Uptake of p-aminohippuric acid, estrone-3-sulfate and tetraethylammonium were examined using renal slices. Real-time PCR and immunoblotting were performed to examine the mRNA and protein expression of rOATs, rOCTs and rMATE1 in the kidney, respectively. RESULTS: The serum and renal IS levels were markedly elevated in cisplatin-treated rats. However, this effect was largely reversed by administration of AST-120, an oral charcoal adsorbent. The functions of renal basolateral organic anion and cation transporters were reduced in cisplatin-treated rats. The levels of mRNA and protein corresponding to rOAT1, rOAT3, rOCT2 and rMATE1, but not rOCT1, were depressed in the kidney of cisplatin-treated rats. Administration of AST-120 to cisplatin-treated rats partially restored the function and expression level of these transporters. CONCLUSIONS: Cisplatin-induced AKI causes down-regulation of renal organic ion transporters accompanied by accumulation of serum and renal IS. IS could be involved in the mechanism of down-regulation of rOAT1, rOAT3 and rMATE1 under cisplatin-induced AKI.
