Fifteen pesticides, representatives of different chemical groups, were tested for their inhibitory effect on the glucuronidation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and phenolphthalein (PPh) by rat liver microsomes. Three herbicides (simazine, chlorsulfuron, tribenuron-methyl), two insecticides (dioxacarb, carb

A series of potent and competitive inhibitors of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase derived from 7,7,7-triphenylheptanoic acid has been synthesized in order to probe the active site of the isozyme involved in the glucuronidation of the endogenous toxic compound, bilirubin IX␣. Like triphenylalkylcarboxylic
Olanzapine is a widely used, newer antipsychotic agent, which is metabolized by various pathways: hydroxylation and N-demethylation by cytochrome P450, N-oxidation by flavin monooxygenase and direct glucuronidation. In vivo studies have pointed towards the latter pathway as being of major importance
Twelve herbicides, representatives of two chemical groups, substituted phenoxyalkanoic acids and s-triazines, were tested for their inhibitory effect on the glucuronidation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), phenolphthalein (PPh) and 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) by rat liver microsomes. One millimole MCPA, am
4-Aminobiphenyl (4-ABP) is an arylamine that has long been associated with human and animal urinary bladder cancer. N-glucuronidation is an important metabolic pathway that contributes significantly to 4-ABP-bladder carcinogenesis by facilitating transport of the active metabolites from the liver to
