Equine Drug Transporters: A Mini-Review and Veterinary Perspective.
Abstract: Xenobiotic transport proteins play an important role in determining drug disposition and pharmacokinetics. Our understanding of the role of these important proteins in humans and pre-clinical animal species has increased substantially over the past few decades, and has had an important impact on human medicine; however, veterinary medicine has not benefitted from the same quantity of research into drug transporters in species of veterinary interest. Differences in transporter expression cause difficulties in extrapolation of drug pharmacokinetic parameters between species, and lack of knowledge of species-specific transporter distribution and function can lead to drug-drug interactions and adverse effects. Horses are one species in which little is known about drug transport and transporter protein expression. The purpose of this mini-review is to stimulate interest in equine drug transport proteins and comparative transporter physiology.

Summary
This research summary has been generated with artificial intelligence and may contain errors and omissions. Refer to the original study to confirm details provided. Submit correction.
The research article delves into the role of xenobiotic transport proteins in drug distribution and pharmacokinetics among horses, and points out that this area of study has not received enough attention compared to human and other animal species.
Introduction and Background
- Transport proteins responsible for xenobiotic substances have a major role in determining how drugs are distributed and metabolized, which impacts their pharmacokinetic behavior.
- Over recent decades, substantial research has been conducted to understand their functioning in humans and other animals used in pre-clinical trials, but not so much for the species of veterinary interest including horses.
Challenges With Current Knowledge
- The research highlights that extrapolating the pharmacokinetic behavior of drugs across species is challenging due to differences in the expression of these transport proteins.
- A lack of knowledge regarding the distribution and function of such proteins for species-specific cases can lead to negative interactions of drugs and potential adverse effects.
Focus on Equine Species
- The researchers articulate that there’s a notable gap in the understanding of drug transport and expression of transporter proteins, specifically in horses.
- This review attempts to raise awareness and interest in the research concerning equine drug transport proteins and comparative transporter physiology.
