UDP‐glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) catalyze the conjugation of various substrates with sugars. Since the UGT2 family forms a large cluster spanning 1.5 Mb, transgenic mouse lines carrying the entire human UGT2 family have not been constructed because of

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

Regulation of cytochrome P450 mRNA expression in primary porcine hepatocytes by selected secondary plant metabolites from chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) [PDF]
Chicory (Cichorium intybus) has been shown to induce enzymes of pharmacokinetic relevance (cytochrome P450; CYP). The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of selected secondary plant metabolites with a global extract of chicory root, on 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 ...

Effect of 3'-methyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene in the presence or absence of liver microsomes on the liver cells having low tumor-producing capacity in culture. [PDF]
A cell strain having low tumor-producing capacity was exposed in culture to 3'-methyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene (3'-Me-DAB) in the presence or absence of liver microsomes, and whether or not the cells will progress to those having high tumor ...

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.

In vitro techniques have been used to investigate the nature of microsomal cytochrome P450 involved in the metabolism of oleic acid, a physiological monounsaturated fatty acid. Like lauric acid, which is cur rently used as a model substrate of fatty acid

The role of human cytochrome P450 2E1 in liver inflammation and fibrosis. [PDF]
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) plays an important role in alcohol and toxin metabolism by catalyzing the conversion of substrates into more polar metabolites and producing reactive oxygen species.
