Silhouette of a human figure,highlighting drug target organs that possess ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters,which are responsible for transporting a variety of substances into body tissues. Three molecules of digoxin,a heart medication,are shown entering the ABC transporter pictured here. The administration of one type of drug to a patient can affect the efficacy of a second prescription if both drugs use the same transporter,because a single type of drug transporter is often responsible for the uptake of many kinds of drugs. Further,alterations in the expression or function of that transporter can result in multidrug resistance | |
