Abstract:Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is the most common cause of acute liver failure and a frequent reason for withdrawal of candidate drugs during preclinical and clinical testing. An important type of DILI is cholestatic liver injury, caused by buildup of bile salts within hepatocytes; it is frequently associated with inhibition of bile salt transporters, such as the bile salt export pump (BSEP). Reliable in silico models to predict BSEP inhibition directly from chemical structures would significantly reduce cos… Show more
