“…In past decades, ATP‐dependent efflux transporters, such as P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp), multidrug resistance‐associated protein (MRP) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), have been shown to be actively involved in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and in drug–drug and drug–food interactions of orally administered drugs (Cheng, Wu, Ping, Wang, & Lu, ; Dahan, Sabit, & Amidon, ; Li et al, ; Li, de Graaf, de Jager, & Groothuis, ; Matsson, Pedersen, Norinder, Bergstrom, & Artursson, ). These transporters could limit the absorption of substrates by actively excreting their substrates back into the gut lumen (Klukovits & Krajcsi, ; Li et al, ). Besides this, multiple efflux pumps influence drug metabolism in the intestine, on the one hand by preventing product inhibition of the metabolic enzymes by active excretion of the metabolites, and on the other hand by controlling the accessibility of parent drugs to the metabolizing enzymes (Lan, Dalton, & Schuetz, ; Siissalo & Heikkinen, ).…”
