Colistin is known to cause nephrotoxicity due to its extensive reabsorption and accumulation in renal tubules. In vitro studies have identified the functional role of colistin transporters such as OCTN2, PEPT2, megalin, and P-glycoprotein. However, the role of these transporter gene variants in colistin-induced nephrotoxicity has not been studied. Utilizing targeted next-generation sequencing, we screened for genetic polymorphisms covering the colistin transporters (SLC15A1, SLC15A2, SLC22A5, LR ...[more]
