Application

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid ammonium salt has been used in the initiation of UDP-glucuronosyl transferase (UDGPT) assay towards 14C-testosterone in the liver S9 protein. It is suitable for use in UDGPT assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDGPA) is the glucuronic acid donor for the conjugation of bilirubin in the endoplasmic recticulum.

General description

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDPGA) is a cofactor, synthesized from UDPglucose and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) intracellularly by the catalytic activity of UDPglucose dehydrogenase. The concentration of UDPGA in a number of liver preparations ranges from 0.3-0.5 mM.

SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan, and histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) such as belinostat, vorinostat and panobinostat, have all been shown to be deactivated by glucuronidation via UGTs. Since they all compete for UGTs for deactivation, we aimed to investigate

1. Ursolic acid (UA) and oleanolic acid (OA) may have important activity relevant to health and disease prevention. Thus, we studied the activity of UA and OA on UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) and used trifluoperazine as a probe substrate to test UGT1A4 activity.
