The objective of this study was to characterize the mechanism that controls the transport of donepezil into the brain. The apparent brain uptake clearance (CL(app,br)) was decreased as a function of the dose of donepezil, suggesting an involvement of a saturable transport process via transporter(s)

## Abstract Epirubicin, an antineoplastic drug, is considered to be taken up by tumor cells via a common carrier by facilitated diffusion and is then pumped out in an energyβdependent manner because epirubicin is a substrate for Pβglycoprotein (Pβgp). However, this study investigated the details of
To clarify the uptake mechanism(s) for statins, we examined whether monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) contributed to the uptake of lovastatin acid by rat cultured mesangial cells. Expression of mRNAs for MCT1, 2, and 4 was confirmed in mesangial cells. The uptake of lovastatin acid by mesangial cell
