Excerpt

Note: In lieu of an abstract, this is an excerpt from the first page.

Organic anion transporter polypeptides (OATPs) mediate the transmembrane uptake of endogenous compounds and clinically important drugs in various tissues thereby effecting drug disposition and tissue penetration. OATPs have also been identified in gastric, pancreatic, and colon carcinomas but little is known about their expression in breast carcinoma. We therefore analyzed the expression pattern of all 11 known OATPs in three breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, ZR-75-1, MDA-MB-231) and one immortalized breast epithelial cell line (MCF-10A) using quantitative PCR. Transcripts of 7/11 OATP genes with a remarkable heterogeneity in their expression profile were detected in control and/or cancer cell lines.[...]
