A recombinant HEK293 cell line designed to express human OCT2 (organic cation transporter 2).
Drug screening and biological assays
Organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), also known as SLC22A2, is another organic cation transporter that shares overlapping substrate specificity with OCT1. It is expressed primarily in the kidney, where it mediates the tubular secretion of various organic cations. OCT2 plays a crucial role in renal drug elimination and is subject to regulation by various factors, including hormones and drugs.
