Abstract excerpt
The multidrug resistance protein 3 (MRP3/gene symbol: ABCC3) is an ATP-dependent efflux pump mediating the transport of endogenous glucuronides and conjugated drug metabolites across cell membranes. In humans the hepatic expression of ABCC3 mRNA seems to be influenced by the polymorphism C>T at the position -211 in the promoter of the ABCC3 gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible mechanisms of...
