HepaSH cells: Experimental human hepatocytes with lesser inter-individual variation and more sustainable availability than primary human hepatocytes

Abstract excerpt

Primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) have been commonly used as the gold standard in many drug metabolism studies, regardless of having large inter-individual variation. These inter-individual variations in PHHs arise primarily from genetic polymorphisms, as well as from donor health conditions and storage conditions prior to cell processing. To equalize the effects of the latter two factors, PHHs were transplanted...
