Species Differences in Ezetimibe Glucuronidation
Background: Peclinical and clinical studies have revealed that ezetimibe, an approved cholesterol-absorption inhibitor, is rapidly and extensively metabolized to a more potent metabolite, ezetimibe glucuronide.

The gut microbiome and drug-resistant epilepsy: Microbiome-antiseizure medication interactions and implications for pharmacoresistance. [PDF]
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy and represents a major unmet clinical need. While traditional hypotheses of pharmacoresistance have focused on alterations in drug targets, efflux transporter overexpression, and intrinsic disease severity, the gut microbiome has recently emerged as a ...

Effect of race and glucuronidation rates on the relationship between nicotine metabolite ratio and nicotine clearance. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES To investigate if the nicotine metabolite ratio (NMR, the ratio of nicotine metabolites 3'-hydroxycotinine/cotinine) is a reliable phenotypic biomarker for nicotine clearance across races, and as a function of differences in the rate of ...

Bisphenol-A and phthalate metabolism in children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
BackgroundThe etiology of autism spectrum (ASD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity (ADHD) disorders are multifactorial. Epidemiological studies have shown associations with environmental pollutants, such as plasticizers.

The compound 20-HETE is involved in numerous physiological functions, including blood pressure and platelet aggregation. Glucuronidation of 20-HETE by UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) is thought to be a primary pathway of 20-HETE elimination in humans.
