Monovalent bile salts

Cisplatin is a substrate for MRP2 but not for MRPl. Folic acid and monovalent bile salts such as cholate, taurocholate, and glycocholate are substrates for MRP3 but not for MRPl and MRP2. 

Much less is known about micellar charge and counterion binding in the case of bile salts. Based on the result of ionic self-diffusion measurements [20,163,173], conductance studies [17,18,187], Na, and Ca activity coefficients [16,19,144,188,189] and NMR studies with Na, Rb and Cs [190], a number of generalities can be made. Below the operational CMC, all bile salts behave as fully dissociated 1 1 electrolytes, yet interionic effects between cations and bile salt anions decrease the equivalent conductance of very dilute solutions [17,18,187]. With the onset of micelle formation, counterions become bound to a small degree values at this concentration are about < 0.07-0.13 and are not greatly influenced by the species of monovalent alkali cations [163,190]. At concentrations above the CMC, values remain relatively constant to 100 mM in the case of C and this...
