## Abstract Coordinate regulation of PhaseβI and βII enzymes with xenobiotic transporters has been shown after treatment with microsomal enzyme inducers. The chemopreventive agent oltipraz (OPZ) induces PhaseβI and βII drugβmetabolizing enzymes such as CYP2B and NQO1. The purpose of this study was

## Abstract Primary cultures of human hepatocytes and hepatoma cell line HepG2 are frequently used to evaluate the hepatic disposition of drugs and other xenobiotics. To check the variability of the expression of drugβmetabolizing enzymes in these in vitro models, expression of genes coding for sev
