چکیده

BACKGROUND Drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) inhibition based drug-drug interaction and herb-drug interaction severely challenge the R&D process of drugs or herbal ingredients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the inhibition potential of wogonin (an important flavonoid isolated from the root of Scutellaria baicalensis) towards one of the most important phase II DMEs, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A9. METHODS Both recombinant UGT1A9-catalyzed 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) glucuronidation reaction and human liver microsomes (HLMs)-catalyzed propofol glucuronidation reaction were used as two different probe reactions. RESULTS Wogonin noncompetitively inhibited recombinant UGT1A9-catalyzed 4-MU glucuronidation, and exerted competitive inhibition towards HLMs-catalyzed propofol glucuronidation. The inhibition kinetic parameters (Ki) were calculated to be 3.2 µM and 52.0µM, respectively. CONCLUSION Necessary monitoring was needed when wogonin was co-administered with the clinical drugs mainly undergoing UGT1A9-mediated glucuronidation elimination. Additionally, probe reactions-dependent inhibition of wogonin towards the activity of UGT1A9 should be paid attention when translating these in vitro data into in vivo situation.

Gossypol exhibits a strong influence towards UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1, 1A9 and 2B7-mediated metabolism of xenobiotics and endogenous substances.

Gossypol, the polyphenolic constituent isolated from cottonseeds, has been used as a male antifertility drug for a long time, and has been demonstrated to exhibit excellent anti-tumor activity towards multiple cancer types. The toxic effects of gossypol limit its clinical utilization, and enzyme inhibition is an important facet of this. In the present study, in vitro human liver microsomal incu...

Short Communication ISOFORM SELECTIVITY AND KINETICS OF MORPHINE 3- AND 6-GLUCURONIDATION BY HUMAN UDP-GLUCURONOSYLTRANSFERASES: EVIDENCE FOR ATYPICAL GLUCURONIDATION KINETICS BY UGT2B7

Morphine elimination involves UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) catalyzed conjugation with glucuronic acid to form morphine 3and 6-glucuronides (M3G and M6G, respectively). It has been proposed that UGT2B7 is the major enzyme involved in these reactions, but there is evidence to suggest that other isoforms also catalyze morphine glucuronidation in man. Thus, we have characterized the selectivit...

Multiple pharmacophores for the investigation of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase isoform substrate selectivity.

The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzyme 'superfamily' contributes to the metabolism of a myriad of drugs, nondrug xenobiotic agents, and endogenous compounds. Although the individual UGT isoforms exhibit distinct but overlapping substrate selectivities, structural features of substrates that confer selectivity remain largely unknown. Using methods developed for pharmacophore fingerprinting...

UDP-glucuronic acid binds first and the aglycone substrate binds second to form a ternary complex in UGT1A9-catalyzed reactions, in both the presence and absence of bovine serum albumin.

The presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) largely modulates the enzyme kinetics parameters of the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A9, increasing both the apparent aglycone substrate affinity of the enzyme and its limiting reaction velocity (Drug Metab Dispos 39:2117-2129, 2011). For a better understanding of the BSA effects and an examination of whether its presence changes the cataly...

Human UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2B10: Validation of Cotinine as a Selective Probe Substrate, Inhibition by UGT Enzyme-Selective Inhibitors and Antidepressant and Antipsychotic Drugs, and Structural Determinants of Enzyme Inhibition.

Although there is evidence for an important role of UGT2B10 in the N-glucuronidation of drugs and other xenobiotics, the inhibitor selectivity of this enzyme is poorly understood. This study sought primarily to characterize the inhibition selectivity of UGT2B10 by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzyme-selective inhibitors used for reaction phenotyping, and 34 antidepressant and antipsychotic...
