Catecholamine transport by the organic cation transporter type 1 (OCT1) [PDF]
Liver and kidney extract adrenaline and noradrenaline from the circulation by a mechanism which does not seem to be one of the classical catecholamine transporters. The hypothesis that OCT1 is involved–the organic cation transporter type 1 which exists in rat kidney and liver–was tested.

Intestinal OCTN2- and MCT1-targeted drug delivery to improve oral bioavailability
Various drug transporters are widely expressed throughout the intestine and play important roles in absorbing nutrients and drugs, thus providing high quality targets for the design of prodrugs or nanoparticles to facilitate oral drug delivery.

Stereoselectivity is important in many pharmacological processes but its impact on drug membrane transport is scarcely understood. Recent studies showed strong stereoselective effects in the cellular uptake of fenoterol by the organic cation transporters OCT1 and OCT2.

Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Is Not an Inhibitor of Human Organic Cation Transporter 1 [PDF]
This letter to editor is to provide commentary on results presented in “Transport of lamivudine [(−)- β -l-2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine] and high-affinity interaction of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors with human organic cation transporters 1, 2, and 3” reported by [Minuesa et ...

Response to “Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Is Not an Inhibitor of Human Organic Cation Transporter 1” [PDF]
On the basis of experiments reported in their letter, Shen and coworkers concluded that tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is not an inhibitor of human organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1). They expressed their concern that high-affinity inhibition of the uptake of N- methyl - 4-phenylpyridinium (
