Abstract excerpt
Among the ABC proteins, some members including ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCC2 and ABCG2 are believed to contribute to multidrug resistance of cancer chemotherapy. In addition, the broad substrate-specificity and apical localization of the ABCB1 and ABCC2 in mucosal epithelium of intestine and hepatocyte give them a protective role against xenobiotics. The inter-individual variations in activity and expression levels of...
