Summary of kinetic parameters of propofol glucuronidation in human hepatocytes with and without siRNA treatment. Intrinsic clearance values (Clint) were calculated by dividing the mean Vmax parameter by the mean Km parameter for each treatment group. OPTI Only and TR only refer to control incubations containing only Optimem assay buffer or Optimem buffer plus transfection reagent, respectively. Statistical significance is calculated versus the transfection reagent only control

Vmax (μmol/min) Km (μM) Ki (μM) Clint (mL/min)
OPTI Only 0.393 ± 0.009 7.99 ± 0.45 361.7 ± 31.3 49.1
TR Only 0.277 ± 0.005 7.62 ± 0.37 521.2 ± 46.3 36.3
UGT1A9 siRNA 0.073 ± 0.007* 6.02 ± 1.6 448.4 ± 203.5 12.1*
