Interactions of Anti-COVID-19 Drug Candidates With Hepatic Transporters May Cause Liver Toxicity and Affect Drug Metabolism
2021-04-08
Abstract excerpt
Transporters in the human liver play a major role in the metabolism of endo-and xenobiotics. Apical (canalicular) transporters extrude compounds to the bile, while basolateral hepatocyte transporters promote the uptake or expel various compounds into the venous blood stream. In the present work we have examined the in vitro interactions of some key repurposed drugs advocated to treat COVID-19 (lopinavir, ritonavir...
