Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2; ABCC2) mediates the biliary excretion of glutathione, glucuronide, and sulfate conjugates of endobiotics and xenobiotics. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of MRP2 contribute to interindividual variability in drug disposition and ultimately in drug response. OBJECTIVES: To characterize the transport function of human wild-type (WT) MRP2 and four...
