Influence of functional haplotypes in the drug transporter gene on central nervous system drug distribution in humans
1 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the human multidrug-resistance gene ABCB1 have been reported to be associated with altered expression and function of P-glycoprotein, an efflux transporter, expressed at the blood-brain barrier. To test whether certain ABCB1 haplotypes contribute to interindividual differences in central nervous system drug distribution, brain distribution of a model...
