Oct1-3 (Slc22a1-3), Octn1 (Slc22a4), Oat1, Oat3 and Rst (Slc22a12) knockout (KO) mice are fertile, viable and show no general phenotypic abnormalities except for the Oat3 KO’s decreased blood pressure, serum metabolite changes, and the Octn1 KO’s increased susceptibility to intestinal inflammation [6,16,17,20,21,22,23,24,25]. This evidence concerns the gene SLC22A12 and inflammatory response.
