Gut microbiota regulation of P-glycoprotein in the intestinal epithelium in maintenance of homeostasis

Abstract Background P-glycoprotein (P-gp) plays a critical role in protection of the intestinal epithelia by mediating efflux of drugs/xenobiotics from the intestinal mucosa into the gut lumen. Recent studies bring to light that P-gp also confers a critical link in communication between intestinal m...
