Abstract:Modulation of drug transporter activity at mucosal sites of HIV-1 transmission may be exploited to optimize retention of therapeutic antiretroviral drug concentrations at target submucosal CD4+ T cells. Previously, we showed that darunavir was a substrate for the P-glycoprotein efflux drug transporter in colorectal mucosa. Equivalent studies in the cervicovaginal epithelium have not been reported. Here, we describe the development of a physiologically relevant model to investigate the permeability of antiretro… Show more
