The IC50 of each inhibitor was first estimated using pooled microsomes with 25 μM CPT-11 lactone, in three independent experiments; we then estimated the effect of this concentration of inhibitor on the kinetic parameters for CPT-11 transformation into NPC with a range of concentrations of CPT-11, also in three independent experiments.
