UGT2B7 c.-161C>T polymorphism frequency in Croatian population

Arhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2022
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.

The Evaluation of Genetic Profiles of UGT1A4 and UGT1A6 in the Turkish Population

Journal of Contemporary Medicine, 2021
Aim: Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are a superfamily of conjugation phase II enzymes and is responsible for catalyzing the glucuronidation of many endobiotic or xenobiotic substrates.

The radioimmunoassay of steroid glucuronides. The oestrogen C-3 glucuronides as haptens [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1975
Antisera were prepared against three related oestrogen ring-A glucuronides, oestrone 3-glucuronide, oestradiol 3-glucuronide and oestriol 3-glucuronide. The corresponding 6,7-3H-labelled conjugates were synthesized as radioligands and the cross-reactions of the antisera against ring-A oestrogen glucuronides and other steroid conjugates were examined ...

Mapping opioid exposure through prescription data and postmortem analysis of opioid drugs in multiple tissues

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Although opioids are central to end of life (EoL) care, tissue‐level opioid exposure remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to characterize the relationship between prescription‐derived morphine equivalent daily dose (MEDD) and measured morphine concentrations across multiple organs.

Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic modelling of uridine 5′‐diphosphoglucorosultransferase (UGT) substrate drugs in pregnant women

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims While pregnancy‐related changes in phase I enzyme activity are well‐documented, less is known about the impact on phase II enzymes. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that changes in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of uridine 5′‐diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase (UGT) substrates during pregnancy result from altered enzyme expression or activity ...

The interplay between molecular architecture, pharmacology, and suspected adverse drug reactions associated with nonsteroidal androgen antagonists in the United Kingdom

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This work aimed to correlate potential links between the suspected adverse drug reaction (ADR) profile of licensed nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonists (NSARA) with their unique chemical properties and known off‐target polypharmacology. Methods Physicochemical and polypharmacology data were curated from the Electronic Medicines Compendium ...

Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronosyl Transferase 2B28 (UGT2B28) Promotes Tumor Progression and Is Elevated in African American Prostate Cancer Patients

Cells, 2022
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most diagnosed cancer in the United States and is associated with metabolic reprogramming and significant disparities in clinical outcomes among African American (AA) men. While the cause is likely multi-factorial, the
