Abstract excerpt
The human multidrug-resistant gene (MDR1) encodes for P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which is a membrane-bound efflux-transporter conferring resistance to a number of natural cytotoxic drugs and potentially toxic xenobiotics. The wobble C3435T polymorphism at exon 26 was associated with different expression levels of the MDR1 gene and substrate uptake. Differences in allele frequencies of the C3435T polymorphism have...
