It is ubiquitously expressed in almost all human tissues and transports a wide spectrum of substrates including drugs, heavy metal anions, toxicants, and conjugates of glutathione, glucuronide and sulfate. With the advance of sequence technology, many MRP1/ABCC1 polymorphisms have been identified. Accumulating evidences show that some polymorphisms are significantly associated with drug resistance and disease susceptibility. In vitro reconstitution studies have also unveiled the mechanism for some polymorphisms. In this review, we present recent advances in understanding the role and mechanism of MRP1/ABCC1 polymorphisms in drug resistance, toxicity, disease susceptibility and severity, prognosis prediction, and methods to select and predict functional polymorphisms.en-USPublisher PolicyMultidrug resistance-associated protein 1ABCC1Single nucleotide polymorphismDrug resistancePrognosisDisease susceptibilityArticle
