Inhibitory Effects of Baicalein Derived from Japanese Traditional Herbal Medicine on SN-38 Glucuronidation

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018
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).

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]

open access: yes, 2019
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.

Optimization of Experimental Conditions of Automated Glucuronidation Assays in Human Liver Microsomes Using a Cocktail Approach and Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesDrug Metabolism And Disposition, 2018
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)–mediated metabolism is possibly the most important conjugation reaction for marketed drugs. However, there are currently no generally accepted standard incubation conditions for UGT microsomal assays, and substantial ...

Implication of human UGT2B7, 2B15 and 2B17 in 19-norandrosterone metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Nandrolone (19-nortestosterone) is an anabolic androgenic steroid commonly abused for doping purposes. Nandrolone is mainly metabolized in the liver into 19-norandrosterone prior to glucuronidation and excretion through urine over an extended period of ...

Scaling factors for the in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IV-IVE) of renal drug and xenobiotic glucuronidation clearance.

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2016
AIM To determine the scaling factors required for inclusion of renal drug glucuronidation clearance in the prediction of total clearance via glucuronidation (CLUGT ). METHODS Microsomal protein per gram of kidney (MPPGK) was determined for human 'mixed'

Acyl glucuronide reactivity in perspective [PDF]

open access: yesDrug Discovery Today, 2020
Acyl glucuronidation is a common metabolic fate for acidic drugs and their metabolites and, because these metabolites are reactive, they have been linked to adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and drug withdrawals. However, alternative routes of metabolism leading to reactive metabolites (e.g., oxidations and acyl-CoA thioesters) mean that unambiguous proof ...
