Addressing the design of in vitro models for the investigation of microcystins: the essential role of transporter-mediated uptake.
This article discusses the need for transporter-mediated uptake for investigations addressing the mechanism of action of microcystins [with reference to the previous article in Cell Biology International by de Souza Votto (2007) 31:1359-1366].
