About

    Hepatic transporters are proteins located in the liver that play a crucial role in the uptake, metabolism, and excretion of endogenous and exogenous substances. These transporters are responsible for regulating the movement of various compounds such as drugs, toxins, and nutrients in and out of liver cells. Study of hepatic transporters involves understanding their structure, function, regulation, and role in drug metabolism and toxicology. Research in this area aims to improve drug delivery, reduce side effects, and enhance the understanding of liver diseases and disorders.
