The balance of cisplatin uptake and efflux, mediated mainly by organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion 1 (MATE1), resp., determines the renal accumulation and nephrotoxicity of cisplatin. Using transporter-mediated cellular uptake assay, we identified wedelolactone (WEL), a medicinal plant-derived natural compound, is a competitive inhibitor of OCT2 and a noncompetitive inhibitor of MATE1. Wedelolactone showed a selectivity to inhibit OCT2 rather than MATE1. Cytotoxicity studies revealed that wedelolactone alleviated cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in OCT2-overexpressing HEK293 cells, whereas it did not alter the cytotoxicity of cisplatin in various cancer cell lines. Addnl., wedelolactone altered cisplatin pharmacokinetics, reduced kidney accumulation of cisplatin, and ameliorated cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in the Institute of Cancer Research mice. In conclusion, these findings suggest a translational potential of WEL as a natural therapy for preventing cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and highlight the need for drug-drug interaction investigations of WEL with other treatments which are substrates of OCT2 and/or MATE1. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one (cas: 524-12-9COA of Formula: C16H10O7).
1,8,9-Trihydroxy-3-methoxy-6H-benzofuro[3,2-c]chromen-6-one (cas: 524-12-9) belongs to benzofurans derivatives. Benzofuran is a core structural unit found in many naturally occurring compounds with multidirectional biological activities. Substituted benzofurans find applications such as fluorescent sensors, oxidants, in drug discovery, and in another field of chemistry and agriculture.COA of Formula: C16H10O7
