説明
Nevirapine (NVP) is an effective drug for the treatment of HIV infections, but its use is limited by a high incidence of severe skin rash and liver injury. 12-Hydroxynevirapine (12-OH-NVP) is the major metabolite of nevirapine. There is strong evidence that the sulfate of 12-OH-NVP is responsible for the skin rash. While several cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs) have been shown to be capable of sulfating 12-OH-NVP, the exact mechanism of sulfation in vivo is unclear. The current study aimed to clarify human SULT(s) and human organs that are capable of sulfating 12-OH-NVP and investigate the metabolic sulfation of 12-OH-NVP using cultured HepG2 human hepatoma cells. Enzymatic assays revealed that of the thirteen human SULTs, SULT1A1 and SULT2A1 displayed strong 12-OH-NVP-sulfating activity. 1-Phenyl-1-hexanol (PHHX), which applied topically prevents the skin rash in rats, inhibited 12-OH-NVP sulfation by SULT1A1 and SULT2A1, implying the involvement of these two enzymes in the sulfation of 12-OH-NVP in vivo. Among five human organ cytosols analyzed, liver cytosol displayed the strongest 12-OH-NVP-sulfating activity, while a low but significant activity was detected with skin cytosol. Cultured HepG2 cells were shown to be capable of sulfating 12-OH-NVP. The effects of genetic polymorphisms of SULT1A1 and SULT2A1 genes on the sulfation of 12-OH-NVP by SULT1A1 and SULT2A1 allozymes were investigated. Two SULT1A1 allozymes, Arg37Asp and Met223Val, showed no detectable 12-OH-NVP-sulfating activity, while a SULT2A1 allozyme, Met57Thr, displayed significantly higher 12-OH-NVP-sulfating activity compared with the wild-type enzyme. Collectively, these results contribute to a better understanding of the involvement of sulfation in NVP-induced skin rash and provide clues to the possible role of SULT genetic polymorphisms in the risk of this adverse reaction.
