Variants in TPMT, ITPA, ABCC4 and ABCB1 genes as predictors of 6-mercaptopurine induced toxicity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common childhood malignancy. Optimal use of anti leukemic drugs has led to less toxicity and adverse reactions, and a higher survival rate. Thiopurine drugs, including 6-mercaptopurine, are mostly used

ABCB1: is there a role in the drug treatment of Parkinson’s disease? [PDF]
Efflux proteins are a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily, which groups various importer and exporter membrane proteins [1].

Inhibition of P‐glycoprotein using photoimmunotherapy in peritoneal metastasis mouse model
Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) using photoimmunoconjugates (PICs) can inhibit the function of the ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) transporter P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) in a mouse model of peritoneal carcinomatosis. Sterile‐filtered PIC was administered in vivo via intraperitoneal (IP) injection 20 days after IP tumor cell implantation of P‐gp‐overexpressing NCI/ADR ...

P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) is involved in vitamin K efflux
International audienceABCB1 (P-glycoprotein/MDR1) is a multidrug efflux transporter that has previously been involved in cholesterol and vitamin D metabolism. Our aim was to explore whether ABCB1 is also involved in vitamin K efflux.

Glucocorticoids modulate drug transporter function in human fetal brain endothelial cells
Abstract figure legend P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein are the most prominent drug transporters at the fetal blood–brain barrier. We isolated primary human fetal brain endothelial cells from early and mid‐gestation cerebral microvessels and exposed them to glucocorticoids cortisol and dexamethasone in vitro.

Physiological and anatomical determinants of placental drug transfer
Abstract figure legend Fetal exposure to pharmaceuticals and their subsequent clearance back to the maternal circulation are governed by placental transfer. Passive diffusion down a maternal‐to‐fetal concentration gradient is the primary route of fetal drug exposure, with specific compounds undergoing transporter‐mediated transfer.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) attenuates the chemotherapy efficacy and increases the probability of cancer recurrence. The accelerated drug efflux mediated by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters is one of the major MDR mechanisms.

Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of a flow‐driven in vitro model of the human placental barrier designed to study transport processes during pregnancy. The model recreates key features of the maternal–fetal interface, enabling the investigation of how nutrients and therapeutic compounds cross the placental barrier under physiologically ...
