Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to investigate the placental transfer of repaglinide by ex vivo placental perfusion experiment. In addition, the involvement of the active organic anion transporters (OATP1B1, OATP1B3 and OATP2B1) was studied by assessing the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes (SLCO1B1, SLCO1B3 and SLCO2B1) encoding OATPs. STUDY DESIGN: Fifteen placentas were obtained after delivery and a 2-h...
