Glucuronidation of apomorphine

Life Sciences, 2000
Apomorphine, a dopaminergic receptor agonist, is largely used in the therapy of Parkinson's disease. In this study, we characterized the glucuronidation of apomorphine and other catechols in rat liver and brain microsomes, using UDP-[U-14C]glucuronic acid and separation of the glucuronides formed by a thin layer chromatographic method.

Biosynthesis and characterization of glucuronide metabolites of fluphenazine: 7-hydroxyfluphenazine glucuronide and fluphenazine glucuronide

Xenobiotica, 1991
1. To expedite direct studies on phase II metabolites of fluphenazine, pure fluphenazine or 7-hydroxyfluphenazine were incubated with a rabbit hepatic microsomal immobilized enzyme system. After purification and recrystallization a high yield (60%) of 7-hydroxy-beta-D-O-glucuronyl-fluphenazine was obtained. 2.

Unusual Glucuronides

Drug Metabolism and Disposition, 2012
Glucuronidation reaction is catalyzed by mammalian uridine diphosphoglucuronosyl transferases by using uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid as a cosubstrate. Conjugation of glucuronic acid to nucleophilic functional groups in chemical entities results in formation of glucuronides. As anticipated, a number of nucleophilic functional groups such as hydroxyl,

Glucuronidation and the Transport of the Glucuronide Metabolites in LLC-PK1 Cells

Molecular Pharmaceutics, 2005
Formation and transport of glucuronide metabolites were studied in LLC-PK1 cells. Glucuronidation of 17beta-estradiol, 1-naphthol, mycophenolic acid, and 4-methylumbelliferone was examined in microsomes prepared from LLC-PK1 cells, human livers, human kidneys, and human intestines.

Iso-glucuronides

Current Drug Metabolism, 2011
This review on isomers or acyl glucuronides (iso-glucuronides) updates earlier reviews, and attempts to place in context the advances that have been made, especially over the last 15 years. The essential chemistry behind the intramolecular acyl migration and anomerization reactions of acyl glucuronides has been appreciated for 30 years.

Glucuronidation

2021
Glucuronidation catalyzed by uridine 5′-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) is the most common phase II metabolism. The UGTs can severely limit a drug's exposure and generate reactive metabolites, leading to toxicity. This chapter provides a brief overview of the current understanding of the UGT enzyme family, followed by various medicinal ...

Hydrolysis of Morphine Glucuronide

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1974
Abstract In procedures requiring the quantitative analysis for total morphine in body fluids there is a need to liberate the bound drug, and for the hydrolysis of conjugates in urine there are alternative methods of acid or enzyme hydrolysis.

Intermediates for Glucuronide Synthesis: 7-Hydroxycoumarin Glucuronide

Journal of Chemical Research, 1997
A convenient synthesis of the important metabolite 7-hydroxycoumarin glucuronide 3 is presented, including a first report of the β-imidate 11β, together with new preparations of the iodosugar 6 and α-imidate 11α: stability data on 11α and 11β are also given, and the importance of carefully controlled hydrolysis in the last step of the preparation of 3 ...

Drug glucuronidation in humans

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1991
Glucuronidation is a major metabolic pathway for a large number of drugs in humans. Conjugation of drugs and other chemicals with glucuronic acid is catalyzed by the multigene UDP-glucuronosyltransferase family. It is believed that a number (unspecified at present) of glucuronosyltransferase isozymes, which probably differ in terms of substrate ...
