TABLE 1.
Steady-state plasma and brain concentrations of erlotinib in wild-type, Mdr1a/b−/−, Bcrp1−/−, and Mdr1a/b−/−Bcrp1−/− mice after a constant intraperitoneal infusion at a rate of 0.6 mg/h/kg
Data are presented as the mean ± S.D.
| Genotype | n | Plasma Concentration | Brain Concentration | Brain-to-Plasma Ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ng/ml | ng/g | |||
| FVB (wild-type) | 4 | 72 ± 41 | 4.3 ± 5.5a | 0.02 ± 0.02 |
| Bcrp1−/− | 4 | 71 ± 3 | 4.9 ± 2.9a | 0.07 ± 0.02 |
| Mdr1a/b−/− | 4 | 81 ± 44 | 12 ± 2.8a,b | 0.09 ± 0.06b |
| Mdr1a/b−/−Bcrp1−/− | 4 | 99 ± 21 | 34 ± 17b | 0.62 ± 0.27b |
P < 0.05 compared with corresponding plasma concentration.
P < 0.05 compared with wild-type group.
