Abstract excerpt
Common genetic variants of the liver-specific human organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1; SLC22A1) have reduced transport capacity for substrates such as the antidiabetic drug metformin. The effect of the reduced OCT1 function on drug interactions associated with OCT1 has not been investigated and...
