Characteristics
- Oct1 (-/-) rats have increased exposure to specific substrates
Additional Information
Oct1 is involved in disposition and excretion through its role in xenobiotic uptake in the basolateral membrane of the liver. Polymorphisms within the gene also have clinical relevance - making this a useful model for studying drug-drug interations, toxicity and metabolism in the liver.
