Gene Name OATP1B1
Uniprot ID SO1B1_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:10599
Protein Family Organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family
Protein Function
Mediates the Na(+)-independent uptake of organic anions such as pravastatin, taurocholate, methotrexate, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, 17-beta-glucuronosyl estradiol, estrone sulfate, prostaglandin E2, thromboxane B2, leukotriene C3, leukotriene E4, thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Involved in the clearance of bile acids and organic anions from the liver.

Gene Name OATP1B3
Uniprot ID SO1B3_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:28234
Protein Family Organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family
Protein Function
Mediates the Na(+)-independent uptake of organic anions such as 17-beta-glucuronosyl estradiol, taurocholate, triiodothyronine (T3), leukotriene C4, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), methotrexate and sulfobromophthalein (BSP). Involved in the clearance of bile acids and organic anions from the liver.

      Mechanism Description
  • Decreased clearance of Glecaprevir due to the transporter inhibition by Bempedoic acid 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution is advised if bempedoic acid is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of OATP1B1 or 1B3, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring should be considered whenever bempedoic acid is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects.
