A recombinant HEK293 cell line that expresses human OCT3 (organic cation transporter 3).
Drug screening and biological assays
Organic cation transporter 3 (OCT3), also known as SLC22A3, is a membrane transporter protein expressed in various tissues, including the brain, placenta, and kidney. It mediates the uptake of various organic cations, including neurotransmitters, drugs, and toxins, into cells. OCT3 plays a role in drug distribution and elimination and may be involved in neurotransmitter homeostasis and drug-drug interactions.
