An unexpected protein interaction promotes drug resistance in leukemia
ABCC4 is a chemotherapeutic drug exporter highly expressed in acute myeloid leukemia. Here, the authors demonstrate that MPP1 anchors ABCC4 to the outer cell membrane mediating drug resistance in leukemic cells and identify antimycin A as a chemical ...

Development of Human Membrane Transporters: Drug Disposition and Pharmacogenetics [PDF]
Membrane transporters play an essential role in the transport of endogenous and exogenous compounds, and consequently they mediate the uptake, distribution, and excretion of many drugs. The clinical relevance of transporters in drug disposition and their

Abstract Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is an important drug‐metabolizing enzyme, whose function is impacted by age, sex, body weight, pregnancy, and disease. It is also the site of major drug interactions involving inhibition and induction. Because CYP3A4 is expressed in the intestine and liver, investigators have sought to study its function in both ...

Modulation of cAMP metabolism for CFTR potentiation in human airway epithelial cells
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease characterized by CF transmembrane regulator (CFTR) dysfunction. With over 2000 CFTR variants identified, in addition to known patient to patient variability, there is a need for personalized treatment.

Effects of cAMP and CFTR modulation on apical fluid pH in human airway Calu‐3 cells
Abstract The airway epithelium serves as the first line of defense against inhaled insults present in the external environment by acting as a physical barrier and through host defense mechanisms. Proper maintenance of these host defense mechanisms relies on the regulation of airway surface liquid (ASL) composition and properties, a process that is ...
