Intrinsic clearance values for NVS-CRF38 and [13CD3]NVS-CRF38 in liver microsomes

Intrinsic clearance values were determined by either substrate depletion or metabolite formation in mixed-gender human or male Sprague-Dawley rat liver microsomes. The initial substrate concentration was 100 nM and the microsomal protein concentration was 0.8 mg/ml. The cofactor NADPH was included to activate cytochrome P450 enzymes. Data are the mean and S.D. of three determinations.
