The Role of PXR Genotype and Transporter Expression in the Placental Transport of Lopinavir in Mice

Lopinavir (LPV), an antiretroviral protease inhibitor frequently prescribed in HIV-positive pregnancies, is a substrate of Abcb1 and Abcc2. As differences in placental expression of these transporters were seen in Pregnane X Receptor (PXR) −/− mice, we examined the impact of placental transporter ex...
