<h4>Purpose</h4>Unstirred water layers (UWLs) present an unavoidable complication to the measurement of transport kinetics in cultured cells, and the high rates of transport achieved by overexpressing heterologous transporters exacerbate the UWL effect. This study examined the correlation between measured Jmax and Kt values and the effect of manipulating UWL thickness or transport Jmax on the accuracy of experimentally determined kinetics of the multidrug transporters, OCT2 and MATE1.<h4>Methods ...[more]
