Km, Michaelis constant, Vmax the maximum reaction velocity, N the Hill coefficient

aCLint, in vitro (μL min1 mg1 or μL min1 105 cells) was defined as Vmax/Km or Vmax × (N−1)/(Km × N × (N−1)1/N).

bCLint, in vivo (mL min1 kg1) was estimated by CLint, in vitro × SF, where SF was the product of protein yield (40 mg mitochondrial protein/g liver [26] or 45 mg microsomal protein/g liver [27]) or hepatocyte yield (5.02 × 107 cells/g liver) [23] and the liver weight per kilogram of body weight (40 g/kg) [23]

cCLH (mL min−1kg−1) was predicted from the well-stirred model
