Kevin M. Huang studies how drug transporter proteins (molecular 'gatekeepers' that move drugs into and out of cells) influence the side effects of cancer chemotherapy, including heart toxicity, nerve damage, and gastrointestinal problems. This work often uses mouse models and cell-based assays to identify which transporters (such as OCT3, OATP1B1, OATP2B1, and P-glycoprotein) control drug movement into specific tissues, with the goal of predicting or preventing drug-induced toxicity. The research sits at the intersection of pharmacology and cancer treatment, focusing on why some chemotherapy and targeted cancer drugs harm healthy organs.
