Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effect of multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE1) genetic variants on its transcript expression in peripheral blood cells. Consistent with previous in vitro findings, MATE1 mRNA levels were significantly higher in subjects carrying rs2453579, but not rs2252281, compared to those without either of these promoter variants. In addition, the mRNA levels did not differ between subjects with both variants and those with neither allele. Thus, this study reveals that the influence of MATE1 genetic variants on its mRNA expression can be detected in vivo using peripheral blood.
