Abstract excerpt
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), the product of the MDR1 gene, shows large interindividual variations in expression, which leads to differences in the pharmacokinetics of the substrate drugs. The functions of single nucleotide polymorphisms located in the nuclear receptor-responsive element of the 5'-flanking region in the human MDR1 gene were analyzed in order to clarify the mechanism underlying the interindividual...
