  • Different culture conditions affect drug transporter gene expression, ultrastructure, and permeability of primary human nasal epithelial cells [Elektronski vir]
    Erdani-Kreft, Mateja ...
    Purpose: This study aimed to characterize a commercially available primary human nasal epithelial cell culture and its gene expression of a wide range of drug transporters under different culture ... conditions. Methods: Human nasal cells were cultured in three different types of culture media at the air-liquid (A-L) or liquid-liquid (L-L) interfaces for 1 or 3 wks. The effects of the different cell culture conditions were evaluated using light and electron microscopy, transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurements, permeation studies with dextran, and gene expression profiling of 84 drug transporters. Results: The type of culture medium affected cell ultrastructure, TEER, and dextran permeation across epithelia. The expression of 20 drug transporter genes depended on the culture interface and/or time in culture; the A-L interface and longer time in culture favored higher expression levels of five ABC and seven SLC transporters. Conclusions: Culture conditions influence the morphology, barrier formation, permeation properties, and drug transporter expression of human nasal epithelial cells, and this must be taken into consideration during the establishment and validation of in vitro models. A thorough characterization of a nasal epithelial model and its permeability properties is necessary to obtain an appropriate standardized model for the design of aerosol therapeutics and drug transport studies.
