Uptake and metabolism kinetic parameters of repaglinide estimated in three human hepatocyte donors using an extended mechanistic two-compartment model
Uptake kinetics was measured in cryopreserved human hepatocytes plated for 6 h at seven concentrations (0.1–300 μM) in the presence (HU4122) or absence (HU4199 and HU8089) of 1 mM ABT.
