Abstract excerpt
The multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) belonging to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily of transport proteins can confer resistance to multiple natural product drugs and methotrexate in human tumor cells. In addition, MRP1 is expressed in normal tissues acting as an efflux pump for glutathione, glucuronate, and sulfate conjugates and may thus influence the pharmacokinetic properties of many drugs. Using...
