“…This is particularly important during early development where efflux transporters are highly expressed in embryos and juvenile fish to prevent xenobiotic uptake and toxicity (Brette et al, 2014;Fischer et al, 2013;Gordon et al, 2019;Incardona et al, 2014). Once in the body, TICs and other XT-evading free rider chemicals could exert sublethal toxic actions at much lower levels, specifically by impairing crucial fish sensory systems (Besson et al, 2020;Lari et al, 2020;Maryoung et al, 2015;Schlenker et al, 2019bSchlenker et al, , 2019aTierney et al, 2010). As structures from other xenobiotic transporters become available, the results of this study will serve as a framework to pave the way to identify additional TICs and to investigate their interactions with both ABC-type efflux transporters, including ABCB1, ABCG2, ABCC1 and ABCC2, and SLC-type uptake transporters, including Organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs), Organic anion transporters (OATs), and Organic cation transporters (OCTs).…”
