In vivo metabolism of ibuprofen in growing conventional pigs : a pharmacokinetic approach [PDF]
The juvenile conventional pig has been suggested as a preclinical animal model to evaluate pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and safety parameters in children. However, a lot of developmental changes in pig physiology still need to be unraveled.

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.

Metabolic profile, bioavailability and toxicokinetics of zearalenone-14-glucoside in rats after oral and intravenous administration by liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]
Zearalenone-14-glucoside (ZEN-14G), a key modified mycotoxin, has attracted a great deal of attention due to the possible conversion to its free form of zearalenone (ZEN) exerting toxicity.

Effects of thyroid status and thyrostatic drugs on hepatic glucuronidation of lodothyronines and other substrates in rats - Induction of phenol UDP-glucuronyltransferase by methimazole [PDF]
Glucuronidation of iodothyronines in rat liver is catalyzed by at least three UDP-glucuronyltransferases (UGTs): bilirubin UGT, phenol UGT, and androsterone UGT.

Multi-Omics in Predicting Lamotrigine Neurotoxicity: Current Opportunities (Review)
INTRODUCTION. Lamotrigine (LTG) is among the most commonly prescribed second-generation antiepileptic drugs due to its low teratogenic risk. However, lamotrigine has pronounced neurotoxic, hepatotoxic, dermatotoxic potential (for genetic and metabolic ...

Purpose: The chemotherapeutic agent irinotecan is hydrolyzed to its active form SN-38 by human carboxyesterases, but SN-38 is converted into the inactive form SN-38G by hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs).

UGT2B7 c.-161C>T polymorphism frequency in Croatian population
Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase-2B7 (UGT2B7), enzyme responsible for the elimination of a number of xenobiotics through glucuronidation, is expressed in the gut, kidneys, intestines, and brain.

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.
