Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of polymorphisms in the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) MDR1 gene on steady-state pharmacokinetics of digoxin in Caucasians. According to earlier data, homozygous TT of the exon 26 complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) 3435C>T polymorphism was associated with low P-gp expression in the human intestine. METHODS: Eight healthy male homozygous carriers of the wild-type exon-26...
