Zusammenfassung

Aims: Considerable effort is aimed at the search for hepatocyte-like cells to use them in cell based therapies. Transformed peripheral monocytes have been described as a possible source of hepatocyte-like cells. In contrast to primary hepatocytes, monocytes are easy to isolate and available. Since primary hepatocytes loose functional CYP P450-metabolism after few days in culture, hepatocytoid cells with a stable and functional CYP P450 metabolism could markedly improve in vitro toxicology studies and decrease the need for animal testing. Aim of the study: Investigation of drug metabolism in monocyte derived hepa…
