Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: It has been reported that leflunomide and its active metabolite, A771726, are substrates of the ABCG2 (BCRP) transporter in vitro. Recent genome-wide association studies have shown that ABCG2 transporter modulates serum uric acid (UA) levels. We explored the role of ABCG2 genotypes in the pharmacokinetics of A771726 and the relationship between serum UA levels and pharmacokinetics of A771726 in healthy...
