Active transport by renal proximal tubules plays a significant role in drug disposition. During drug development, estimates of renal excretion are essential to dose determination. Kidney bioreactors that reproduce physiologic cues in the kidney, such as flow-induced shear stress, may better predict in vivo drug behavior than do current in vitro models. In this study, we investigated the role of shear stress on active transport of 4-(4-(dimethylamino)styryl)-N-methylpyridinium iodide (ASP+) by Madin-Darby canine kidney cells exogenously expressing the human organic cation transporters organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE1). Cells cultured in a parallel plate under continuous media perfusion formed a tight monolayer with a high barrier to inulin. In response to increasing levels of shear stress (0.2-2 dynes/cm 2 ), cells showed a corresponding increase in transport of ASP+, reaching a maximal 4.2-fold increase at 2 dynes/cm 2 compared with cells cultured under static conditions. This transport was inhibited with imipramine, indicating active transport was present under shear stress conditions. Cells exposed to shear stress of 2 dynes/cm 2 also showed an increase in RNA expression of both transfected human and endogenous OCT2 (3.7- and 2.0-fold, respectively). Removal of cilia by ammonium sulfate eliminated the effects of shear on ASP+ transport at 0.5 dynes/cm 2 with no effect on ASP+ transport under static conditions. These results indicate that shear stress affects active transport of organic cations in renal tubular epithelial cells in a cilia-dependent manner.
