Table 1. Transport kinetic parameters of Oatp4c1-mediated E3S transport at pH 4.5, 5.5 and 7.4 (mean ± S.E.).

pH 4.5 pH 5.5 pH 7.4
Tmax [(pmol/min )/mg protein] 612.6±109.7* 484. 0±50.4*** 129.3±11.0**
S50 [µM] 60.5±22.7 49.3±8.8 21.5±3.6
n, Hill Coefficient 1.1±0.2 1.5±0.2 2.6±1.0

The parameters were estimated by fitting a sigmoid-Emax model to the data. Statistical analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc test for all pairwise comparisons. *, **, *** p<0.05 indicate significant differences between pH 4.5 and 5.5, pH 4.5 and 7.4, and pH 5.5 and 7.4, respectively.
