Taurolithocholate (TLC) is a cholestatic bile salt that induces disinsertion of the canalicular transporter Abcc2 (Mrp2, multidrug resistance-associated protein 2). This internalization is mediated by different intracellular signaling proteins such as PI3K, PKCε and MARCK but the initial receptor of TLC remains unknown. A few G protein-coupled receptors interact with bile salts in hepatocytes. Among them, sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 2 (S1PR2) represents a potential initial receptor for TLC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of this receptor and its downstream effectors in the impairment of Abcc2 function induced by TLC. In vitro, S1PR2 inhibition by JTE-013 or its knockdown by small interfering RNA partially prevented the decrease in Abcc2 activity induced by TLC. Moreover, adenylyl cyclase (AC)/PKA and PI3K/Akt inhibition partially prevented TLC effect on canalicular transporter function. TLC produced PKA and Akt activation, which were blocked by JTE-013 and AC inhibitors, connecting S1PR2/AC/PKA and PI3K/Akt in a same pathway. In isolated perfused rat liver, injection of TLC triggered endocytosis of Abcc2 that was accompanied by a sustained decrease in the bile flow and the biliary excretion of the Abcc2 substrate dinitrophenyl-glutathione until the end of the perfusion period. S1PR2 or AC inhibition did not prevent the initial decay, but they accelerated the recovery of these parameters and the reinsertion of Abcc2 into the canalicular membrane. In conclusion, S1PR2 and the subsequent activation of AC, PKA, PI3K and Akt is partially responsible for the cholestatic effects of TLC through sustained internalization of Abcc2.
