CHAPTER 6. OATs and OCTs: The SLC22 Family of Organic Anion and Cation Transporters
The SLC22 transporters belong to the solute carrier (SLC) transporter superfamily and have diverse functions and expression patterns that include the cellular uptake of organic cations, anions and zwitterions in the liver and kidneys.

Renal drug transporters and their significance in drug–drug interactions
The kidney is a vital organ for the elimination of therapeutic drugs and their metabolites. Renal drug transporters, which are primarily located in the renal proximal tubules, play an important role in tubular secretion and reabsorption of drug molecules

Stimuli-Responsive Cycloaurated ‘OFF-ON’ Switchable Anion Transporters [PDF]
Anion transporters have shown potential application as anti-cancer agents that function by disrupting homeostasis and triggering cell death. In this research article we report switchable anion transport by gold complexes of anion transporters that are ...

Identification of steroid sulfate transport processes in the human mammary gland [PDF]
Circulating hormones and local biotransformation of steroid precursors are both sources of estrogen in human mammary tissue. Estrone-3-sulfate (E(1)S) is an important estrogenic form in premenopausal women, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS ...

Drug Transporter Expression and Activity in Human Hepatoma HuH-7 Cells
Human hepatoma cells may represent a valuable alternative to the use of human hepatocytes for studying hepatic drug transporters, which is now a regulatory issue during drug development. In the present work, we have characterized hepatic drug transporter

Organic anion transporters in remote sensing and organ crosstalk.
The organic anion transporters, OAT1 and OAT3, regulate the movement of drugs, toxins, and endogenous metabolites. In 2006, we proposed that OATs and other SLC22 transporters are involved in "remote sensing" and organ crosstalk.

Inhibition of Human Drug Transporter Activities by the Pyrethroid Pesticides Allethrin and Tetramethrin. [PDF]
Pyrethroids are widely-used chemical insecticides, to which humans are commonly exposed, and known to alter functional expression of drug metabolizing enzymes. Limited data have additionally suggested that drug transporters, that constitute key-actors of

Assessment of the Drug Interaction Potential of Unconjugated and GalNAc3-Conjugated 2′-MOE-ASOs
Antisense oligonucleotides are metabolized by nucleases and drug interactions with small drug molecules at either the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme or transporter levels have not been observed to date.
