Mitochondrial-Shaping Proteins in Cardiac Health and Disease - the Long and the Short of It!

abstract：PURPOSE:Rivaroxaban, an oral anticoagulant, undergoes the metabolism mediated by human cytochrome P450 (CYP). The present study is to quantitatively analyze and compare the contributions of multiple CYPs in the metabolism of rivaroxaban to provide new information for medication safety. METHODS:The metabolic stability ...
