1 We investigated small-intestinal absorption of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates etoposide and digoxin in monkeys to clarify the influence of efflux transport on their intestinal permeability. Etoposide ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B (MDR/TAP), member 1B Rattus norvegicus
2 CONCLUSION: Low bioavailability of etoposide in monkeys is due to poor intestinal uptake resulting from low influx from the apical side, rather than secretion via P-gp. Etoposide ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B (MDR/TAP), member 1B Rattus norvegicus
