Generation of tetracycline-controllable CYP3A4-expressing Caco-2 cells by the piggyBac transposon system

Abstract Caco-2 cells are widely used as an in vitro intestinal epithelial cell model because they can form a monolayer and predict drug absorption with high accuracy. However, Caco-2 cells hardly express cytochrome P450 (CYP), a drug-metabolizing enzyme. It is known that CYP3A4 is the dominant drug...
