Demethylzeylasteral Exhibits Strong Inhibition towards UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A6 and 2B7

Molecules, 2012
Inhibition of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoforms can result in severe clinical results, including clinical drug-drug interactions (DDI) and metabolic disorders of endogenous substances.

Virtual Twin Approach Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Support Precision Dosing of Valproic Acid in Geriatric Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Personalized dosing is particularly important for drugs with narrow therapeutic indices in geriatric patients, who exhibit substantial physiological variability and limited pharmacokinetic (PK) evidence to guide individualized dose selection. Valproic acid (VPA) is an effective treatment option for bipolar disorder in older adults, yet dosing largely ...

[UDP-glucuronosyltransferase].

Nihon eiseigaku zasshi. Japanese journal of hygiene, 2002
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) represent a family of enzymes that glucuronidate many internal substances and drugs. This family acts as a drug metabolism phase II reactor in the liver and comprises one of the major protective mechanisms from toxic chemical substances. UGTs have two subfamilies; UGT1 and UGT2.

Identification of a Functional CYP2C8 Variant Allele that Alters Splicing, Reduces Protein Expression, and Increases Drug Exposure

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This study investigated genetic determinants of the pharmacokinetics of the CYP2C8 index drugs repaglinide and gemfibrozil, and their interaction in healthy participants. Sequencing data from a study with montelukast revealed a novel functional CYP2C8 allele (rs2071426, CYP2C8*19), predicted to create an intronic splice donor site.

Polymorphic expression of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGTlA gene in human colorectal cancer.

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundPolymorphism of genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes is known to play an important role in increased susceptibility of colorectal cancer. UGT1A gene locus has been suggested to define tissue-specific glucuronidation activity.

Integrated assessment of rifampicin‐mediated induction of transporters and drug‐metabolizing enzymes in a long‐term human liver tissue chip system

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Rifampicin is a prototypical clinical inducer used in drug–drug interaction (DDI) studies. However, the clinical relevance and predictability of rifampicin‐mediated hepatic transporter induction remain poorly defined. Conventional hepatocyte culture models fail to capture clinically relevant regulation of transporters and drug‐metabolizing enzymes ...

A translational multimodal machine‐learning prototype predicting valproate response in epilepsy treatment

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects ~1% of the global population and often requires lifelong antiseizure medication (ASM) therapy. Valproic acid (VPA) is a commonly prescribed first‐line ASM, yet only approximately half of patients achieve sustained seizure freedom. Treatment selection remains largely empirical.

Progress report on new epilepsy treatments: A summary of the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII). II. Treatments in more advanced clinical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract This article summarizes data for 13 investigational treatments for which at least preliminary seizure outcome data in patients with epilepsy were reported at the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices held in Madrid, Spain, on May 3–6, 2026.

Progress report on new epilepsy treatments: A summary of the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII). I. Treatments in preclinical and early clinical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the last 34 years, the Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices has provided an interactive forum for stakeholders to discuss investigational and recently licensed treatments for seizures and epilepsy. The Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII) took place in Madrid, Spain, on May 3 ...

Regulation of Sulfotransferase and UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase Gene Expression by the PPARs

PPAR Research, 2009
During phase II metabolism, a substrate is rendered more hydrophilic through the covalent attachment of an endogenous molecule. The cytosolic sulfotransferase (SULT) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) families of enzymes account for the majority of ...
