Abstract excerpt
This study evaluated the impact of the ABCB1-1Δ mutation in Collies which exhibited toxicity toward ivermectin, on changes in gene expression when given the unrelated ABCB1 substrate loperamide, to identify potential biomarkers predictive of drug safety. Thirty-two healthy intact Collies consisting of dogs with either a wild-type, heterozygous mutant, or homozygous mutant genotype were used. Whole blood samples...
