Isolated cells catalyze various phase I and I1 reactions and generally more closely mimic intact animal systems than do other in vitro systems. However the utility of isolated cells is limited by technical difficulties including isolation techniques, preincubation times, separation of heterogenous cells and the difficulty in maintaining catalytic activity for a long period of time. Thus, improved techniques for isolating cells and for maintaining the viability of isolated cells are needed. Studies on the relationship between results obtained with isolated cells and with intact animals, and results obtained with animal cells and human cells are also required. Studies with cells containing expressed human enzymes are desirable.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
