Safe and Efficacious Diphtheria Toxin-Based Treatment for Melanoma: Combination of a Light-On Gene-Expression System and Nanotechnology.

abstract：:Rodent models are less suitable for predicting drug-drug interactions at the level of the human intestinal mucosa, especially when nuclear receptors such as pregnane X receptor (PXR) are involved. Recently, a transgenic mouse model, expressing both human PXR and CYP3A4, was developed and shown to be a better predictor...
