Molecular identification and functional characterization of Mdr1a in rat cholangiocytes

Abstract

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The multidrug resistance P-glycoprotein 170 gene products (mdr1a and 1b) are glycosylated plasma membrane proteins that function as adenosine triphosphate-dependent transmembrane export pumps for lipophilic xenobiotics of widely different structure. We assessed whether these P-glycoproteins are functionally expressed in cholangiocytes. METHODS: A reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction was performed on RNA from a …
