Characterisation and validation of drug transport and GLP-1R function in primary porcine proximal tubular cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Overview kidney: Kidney is, beside the liver, one of the most important organs for the elimination of waste products, toxins, drugs and their metabolites. Due to the anatomy of the kidney, ultra filtrate leaving the glomerulus passes first the proximal

Imaging the Pharynx to Measure the Uptake of Doxorubicin in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Caenorhabditis elegans offers an array of advantages to investigate the roles of uptake transporters. Herein, an epifluorescent microscopy approach was developed to monitor the uptake of the autofluorescent anticancer drug, doxorubicin, into the pharynx ...

Urinary Excretion of Tetrodotoxin Modeled in a Porcine Renal Proximal Tubule Epithelial Cell Line, LLC-PK1

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2017
This study examined the urinary excretion of tetrodotoxin (TTX) modeled in a porcine renal proximal tubule epithelial cell line, LLC-PK1. Time course profiles of TTX excretion and reabsorption across the cell monolayers at 37 °C showed that the amount of

CHAPTER 6. OATs and OCTs: The SLC22 Family of Organic Anion and Cation Transporters

open access: yes, 2021
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

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2016
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

Organic Anion Transporter Family: Current Knowledge

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Organic anion transporters (OATs) play an essential role in the elimination of numerous endogenous and exogenous organic anions from the body. The renal OATs contribute to the excretion of many drugs and their metabolites that are important in ...
