Figure Lengend Snippet: Kinetic analysis of masitinib metabolite formation in pooled HLM: (A) M485, (B) M515c, (C) MCN510, (D) MCN524, (E) MCN526, and (F) MCN538. Masitinib (0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM) was incubated with pooled HLM (0.25 mg/mL) supplemented with NADPH and potassium cyanide (KCN 1 mM). Relative levels of metabolites formed were measured by LC–MS/MS. The results shown are from two independent experiments (trials 1 and 2) conducted in triplicate each (n = 3). Data points shown are from individual replicates. Data were graphed as peak area versus substrate concentration [S] (A–F) and using the Eadie–Hofstee transformation as peak area versus peak area/[S] (inset A–F). Based on comparison of kinetic model fits using the corrected Akaike’s information criterion (AICc) method in GraphPad Prism 9.0 software, the Michaelis–Menten model was selected as the preferred model for M485 (A), and substrate inhibition was the preferred model for M515c, MCN510, MCN524, MCN526, and MCN538 (B–F). Therefore, data for (A) were fit to the Michaelis–Menten model, and data for (B–F) were fit to the substrate inhibition model using nonlinear regression analysis with GraphPad Prism 9.0 software.
