The multidrug resistance protein 4 (Mrp4) is an ATP-binding cassette transporter that is capable of exporting the second messenger cAMP from cells, a process that might regulate cAMP-mediated anti-inflammatory processes.

Apoptosome activation, an important molecular instigator in 6-mercaptopurine induced Leydig cell death. [PDF]
Leydig cells are crucial to the production of testosterone in males. It is unknown if the cancer chemotherapeutic drug, 6-mercaptopurine (6 MP), produces Leydig cell failure among adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Moreover, it is

Impaired platelet activation and cAMP homeostasis in MRP4-deficient mice [PDF]
Key PointsIn vivo and in vitro thrombus formation is altered in MRP4-deficient mice. MRP4 modulates the cAMP–protein kinase A platelet signaling pathway.

The Intake of Coffee Increases the Absorption of Aspirin in Mice by Modifying Gut Microbiome
The absorption of orally administered aspirin into the blood was affected by gastrointestinal environmental factors such as gut pH, digestive enzymes, and microbiota. The intake of coffee affects the pharmacological effects of aspirin.

ABCC4/MRP4: a MYCN-regulated transporter and potential therapeutic target in neuroblastoma.
Resistance to cytotoxic drugs is thought to be a major cause of treatment failure in childhood neuroblastoma, and members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily may contribute to this phenomenon by active efflux of chemotherapeutic ...

Role of MRP transporters in regulating antimicrobial drug inefficacy and oxidative stress-induced pathogenesis during HIV-1 and TB infections. [PDF]
Multi-Drug Resistance Proteins (MRPs) are members of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) drug-efflux transporter superfamily. MRPs are known to regulate the efficacy of a broad range of anti-retroviral drugs (ARV) used in highly active antiretroviral therapy (

Mrp4 Confers Resistance to Topotecan and Protects the Brain from Chemotherapy [PDF]
The role of the multidrug resistance protein MRP4/ABCC4 in vivo remains undefined. To explore this role, we generated Mrp4-deficient mice. Unexpectedly, these mice showed enhanced accumulation of the anticancer agent topotecan in brain tissue and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Further studies demonstrated that topotecan was an Mrp4 substrate and that cells
