In Vitro Metabolism and In Vivo Pharmacokinetics Profiles of Hydroxy-α-Sanshool
Hydroxy-α-sanshool (HAS) is the predominant active compound in Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim (ZBM). Our present work was aimed to explore the in vitro metabolism characteristics, and in vivo pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of HAS.

The NADH-dependent stearoyl CoA desaturase of hepatic microsomes (EC 1.14.99.5) is an enzyme system consisting of cytochrome b5 reductase (EC 1.6.2.2), cytochrome b5, and the terminal desaturase. We have developed a simple method for routine assay of the

Biosynthesis of presqualene pyrophosphate by liver microsomes
Microsomes from rat liver have been shown to synthesize a squalene precursor from farnesyl pyrophosphate. This intermediate is identical with presqualene pyrophosphate, a 30-carbon cyclopropane containing pyrophosphate ester that had previously been ...

Activation of HMG-CoA reductase by microsomal phosphatase
HMG-CoA reductase activity can be modulated by a reversible phosphorylation-dephosphorylation with the phosphorylated form of the enzyme being inactive and the dephosphorylated form, active. Phosphatases from diverse sources, including cytosol, have been

Sidedness of ceramide-phosphoethanolamine synthesis on rat liver and brain microsomal membranes.
Phosphatidylethanolamine:ceramide-ethanolamine-phosphotransferase catalyzes the synthesis of ceramide-phosphoethanolamine, a sphingomyelin analogue. Its localization was studied in rat liver and brain microsomes.

Towards the Development of an In vivo Chemical Probe for Cyclin G Associated Kinase (GAK)
SGC-GAK-1 (1) is a potent, selective, cell-active chemical probe for cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK). However, 1 was rapidly metabolized in mouse liver microsomes by cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation, displaying rapid clearance in liver microsomes and ...

Lipid composition and turnover of rough and smooth microsomal membranes in rat liver
Subfractions of rat liver microsomes (rough, smooth I, and smooth II), isolated in a cation-containing sucrose gradient system, were analyzed. After removal of adsorbed and luminal protein, these subfractions had the same phospholipid/protein ratio ...

Studies on acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase activity in human liver microsomes.
The aim of the present study was to characterize the acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in human liver microsomes. Liver biopsies were obtained from patients undergoing elective cholecystectomy under highly standardized ...
