Abstract excerpt
The P-glycoprotein efflux pump, encoded by the MDR1 gene, is an ATP-driven transporter capable of expelling a diverse array of compounds from cells. Overexpression of this protein is implicated in the multi-drug resistant phenotype observed in various cancers. Numerous studies have attempted to decipher the impact of genetic variants within MDR1 on P-glycoprotein expression, functional activity, and clinical...
