1 The brain efflux index method, combined with the organotypic brain slices, was used to determine the net contribution of P-gp and BCRP to the total clearance of sorafenib out of the brain and show that its efflux at the BBB is mediated primarily by BCRP. Sorafenib phosphoglycolate phosphatase Mus musculus
2 In conclusion, this study explains the cooperation of P-gp and BCRP by analysis of the efflux clearance of sorafenib and correlating it to the "mechanisms" that determine the clearance, i.e., affinity and capacity. Sorafenib phosphoglycolate phosphatase Mus musculus
