Digitonin | specifically inhibits isozyme CES1A. The metabolism of MEGX to 2,6-xylidine is inhibited by the CES1A inhibitor digitonin in Caco-2 cells | Homo sapiens | |
telmisartan | 4-nitrophenyl acetate hydrolysis in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes is significantly inhibited by the CES2A1-specific inhibitor telmisartan | Homo sapiens |

additional information | expression patterns of carboxylesterase isozymes CES2A1 and CES1A in Caco-2 cells differ from those in the human small intestine. Development of a system to evaluate intestinal pharmacokinetics, CES expression and function in human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived enterocytes are analyzed. CES2A1 mRNA and protein levels in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes are comparable to Caco-2 cells, whereas CES1A levels are lower in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes compared with Caco-2 cells. The expression and activity of CES isozymes in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes are more similar to the human small intestine compared with Caco-2 cells | Homo sapiens | - |

physiological function | human carboxylesterase (CES) is a key esterase involved in the metabolism and biotransformation of drugs. Hydrolysis activity in the human small intestine is predominantly mediated by CES2A1 rather than CES1A. In drug development studies, Caco-2 cells are commonly used as a model to predict drug absorption in the human small intestine. But the expression patterns of CES2A1 and CES1A in Caco-2 cells differ from those in the human small intestine | Homo sapiens |

Hydrolysis levels of the CES2A1-specific substrate aspirin were similar in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes and Caco-2 cells, whereas hydrolysis of the CES1A-specific substrate monoethylglycylxylidine is observed in Caco-2 cells but not in human iPS cell-derived enterocytes | Homo sapiens |
