The organic anion transporter <i>Adenosine triphosphate binding cassette subfamily C member 1</i> (<i>ABCC1</i>), also known as <i>MRP1</i>, has been demonstrated in murine models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) to export amyloid beta (Abeta) from the endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier to the periphery, and that pharmaceutical activation of <i>ABCC1</i> can reduce amyloid plaque deposition in the brain. Here, we show that ABCC1 is not only capable of exporting Abeta from the cytoplasm of h ...[more]
