A Human ABC Transporter ABCC4 Gene SNP (rs11568658, 559 G > T, G187W) Reduces ABCC4-Dependent Drug Resistance [PDF]
Broad-spectrum drug resistance is a major obstacle in cancer treatment, which is often caused by overexpression of ABC transporters the levels of which vary between individuals due to single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in their genes.

Whole genome resequencing reveals an association of ABCC4 variants with preaxial polydactyly in pigs [PDF]
Background Polydactyly is one of the most common congenital limb dysplasia in many animal species. Although preaxial polydactyly (PPD) has been comprehensively studied in humans as a common abnormality, the genetic variations in other animal species have

Tonoplast-Localized ABCC Transporters Enhance Heterologous Production of the Antidiabetic Montbretin A and Its Analogues in Nicotiana benthamiana. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The plant‐derived specialized metabolite montbretin A (MbA) is under development as an improved treatment for Type 2 diabetes, a worldwide epidemic. MbA is an acylated flavonol glycoside so far only found in small amounts in montbretia (Crocosmia × crocosmiiflora) corms.

Associations of Genetic Variants in Uric Acid Transporter Genes With Salt Sensitivity, Longitudinal Blood Pressure Changes, and Incident Hypertension in Chinese Adults. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Uric acid transporters mediate renal and extrarenal urate handling and may contribute to blood pressure (BP) regulation. This study examined the associations of common single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in key urate transporter genes (SLC2A9, ABCG2, SLC17A3, SLC22A7, SLC22A6, SLC22A11, SLC22A12, and ABCC4) with salt sensitivity ...
