Main description:

Highlighting the internationally hot topic of pharmacogenomics and its influence on drug therapy, Pharmacogenomics of Human Drug Transporters reviews individual drug transporters, including specific transporter families and clinical implications. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to drug transporters that influence the absorption, distribution, and elimination of drugs in the body, and the reasons why individuals differ. The authors include sufficient detail to enable non-specialists to understand the principles and techniques and provides a practical, hands-on resource for researchers in pharmaceutical industry, academic research, and government agencies.
