Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that solute carrier transporters play an important role in the transport and distribution of metformin, and that genetic variation(s) in solute carrier genes have play a role in the variation of metformin efficacy and disposition observed in populations. This study aimed to determine the cellular uptake efficiency of metformin in SLC22A2 coding haplotypes of an indigenous South...
