Moreover, the involvement of different transporters (CTR1, OCT2, MATE, ATP7A/B) in the antiproliferative activity of the gold compound was studied via transporter inhibition experiments in comparison to cisplatin in two human ovarian cancer cell lines, one sensitive (A2780) and one resistant to cisplatin (A2780cisR). The gene discussed is SLC31A1; the disease is ovarian carcinoma.
