Understand if your compound is a substrate for the main human SLC uptake transporters, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, MATE2-K, OATP1A2, OATP2B1, OAT2, OAT4, OCTN2, PEPT1, PEPT2 or NTCP.
SLC uptake transporter substrate identification is within our portfolio of in vitro drug transporter screening services. Cyprotex deliver consistent, high quality data for either your early stage screening projects or your later stage regulatory studies according to FDA guidance and EMA guidance. Protocols can be adapted based on specific customer requirements.
Membrane transporters can have clinically relevant effects on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a drug in various organs and tissues by controllong its absorption, distribution and elimination.
