Regulation of sulfotransferases by xenobiotic receptors.

abstract：:New chemical entities are routinely screened in vitro and in vivo for their ability to induce cytochrome P450s (CYP), other drug-metabolizing enzymes and possibly transporters in an attempt to more accurately predict clinical parameters such as drug-drug interactions and clearance in humans.
