Columns are, in order: drug or xenobiotic substrate; indication (how drug is used for disease treatment); test system, that is, cell system for in-vitro experiment versus in-vivo experiment; experimental measurement performed; Km, where available, and finally, reference. Several ligands were studied by different investigators and these data are listed in separate rows. Data organized by drug class.

ACE, angiotensin-converting enzyme; HMG CoA, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoEnzyme A reductase.
