Selecting surfactants for the maximum inhibition of the activity of the multidrug resistance efflux pump transporter, P-glycoprotein: conceptual development

Amphiphilic excipients, such as surfactants, have been shown to be inhibitors of the multidrug resistance (MDR) efflux pump transporter protein, P glycoprotein (Pgp). In vitro studies using many surfactants have demonstrated that those with an optimum hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) exhibit gre...
