Abstract excerpt
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) and OATP1B3 are human hepatocyte transporters that mediate the uptake of various endogenous and exogenous substances. Genetic variations in solute carrier transporter 1B1 (SLCO1B1) and SLCO1B3 genes, which encode OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 proteins, could affect the pharmacokinetics of drugs leading to interindividual differences in drug responses. The full extent of...
