Folate receptor-โฃ (FR-โฃ) is generally over-expressed in non-mucinous human ovarian carcinomas. The meaning of FR-โฃ over-expression and its role in the 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (N 5 -CH 3 -H 4 PteGlu) transport in such tumors is not clear, especially compared with the reduced folate carrier (RFC)

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Highโdose methotrexate (MTX) is an important component of current protocols for the treatment of osteosarcoma. Although MTX uptake proceeds primarily through the reduced folate carrier (RFC) protein and efflux occurs via multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), RFC protein
In this study, we investigated whether such a topological descriptor-based approach is suitable for predicting the carrier-mediated transport of 20 b-lactam antibiotics that are substrates of peptide transporters. To select the molecular descriptors that can effectively predict a targeted property i
