Characterization of Lysosomal Hydrolases and Transporters and Their Age‐Dependent Variability: Relevance to Drug Metabolism and Transport of Small Molecule and Biologic Drugs

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.

Dithiothreitol increases b -glucuronidase accumulation in transformed tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum ) protoplasts without altering their viability or the synthesis and export of cellular proteins [PDF]

Plant Cell Reports, 1999
The effect of dithiothreitol (DTT) on the expression of the β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene under the control of the CaMV-35 S promoter has been investigated by radioactive labelling and immunoprecipitation of the enzyme in protoplasts from stably transformed tobacco plants and compared with that observed in protoplasts transiently expressing the ...

Elimination Profile of Deflazacort and Metabolites in Urine and Plasma Following Oral Administration: Relevance to Sports Drug Testing

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Results confirm that the MRL of 30 ng/mL for 21‐desacetyl‐deflazacort together with a 3‐day washout period is an appropriated strategy to detect oral deflazacort administration in sport competition. ABSTRACT Deflazacort (DEF) is a glucocorticoid prohibited in sports competitions when orally administered.

Lysosomal exoglycosidases in the urine of children and adolescents

Pediatria i Medycyna Rodzinna, 2019
Standard indices of renal function, i.e. creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and endogenous creatinine clearance, still fail to accurately characterise disease processes in kidneys and are not sufficient for proper therapy selection, efficacy ...

Transient b-glucuronidase activity after infiltration of Arabidopsis thaliana by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Biologia plantarum, 1997
Transient expression of the β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene introduced into Arabidopsis thaliana intact plants by T-DNA after vacuum infiltration of Agrobacterium tumefaciens was followed. The first incidence of GUS activity was found 2 - 3 d after treatment and a peak of activity one week after treatment in both A. thaliana races, Columbia and C24.

Investigation of the In Vitro and In Vivo Metabolism and μ‐Opioid Receptor Affinity of the Nitazene N‐Pyrrolidino Fluetonitazene

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Eight metabolites for N‐pyrrolidino fluetonitazene were identified in vitro, three of which (M2, M6 and M8) were present in an authentic urine sample. M2 was the most abundant in vivo metabolite and is a common marker metabolite of nitazepyne‐type substances.

Phase I Metabolism of Novel Phencyclidine Derivative 3‐Cl‐PCP: In Vitro Studies With Pooled Human Liver Microsomes and Investigation of a Post‐Mortem Case

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A fatal 3‐chloro‐phencyclidine (3‐Cl‐PCP) intoxication was investigated by analyzing postmortem samples and a pooled human liver microsomes assay. Tentative metabolite identification was performed by liquid chromatography‐quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (LC‐QTOF‐MS). Seven phase I metabolites were identified.

In Vitro Metabolism of Δ8‐, Δ9‐, and Δ10‐THC in Human Hepatocytes: Distinct Δ10‐THC Biotransformation and Implications for Drug Testing

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Δ8‐THC and Δ9‐THC showed comparable metabolic profiles. In contrast, Δ10‐THC underwent extensive glucuronidation and hydroxylation, with only minor formation of a carboxy metabolite, indicating a markedly different metabolic pathway. These differences may increase the risk of misidentification and misinterpretation in cannabis drug testing.

Transfer of uidA gene into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2001
Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tobacco leaf disks with two Agrobacterium tumefaciens (A.t.) strains LBA4404 and EHA105 and four plasmids pCAMBIA1201, pCAMBIA1301, pCAMBIA2301 and pCAMBIA3201 was used for the introduction an uidA reporter gene ...
