1. Icaritin is a natural flavonoid with anti-osteoporosis activity. This study aimed to characterize icaritin glucuronidation by pooled human liver microsomes (HLM) and pooled human intestine microsomes (HIM), and to determine the contribution of individual UDP-glucuronosyltrans-ferase (UGT) enzyme to icaritin glucuronidation.2. Glucuronidation rates were determined by incubating icaritin with uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid (UDPGA)-supplemented microsomes. Kinetic parameters were derived by appropriate model fitting. Relative activity factors and activity correlation analysis were performed to identify main UGT isoforms.3. UGT1A3, 1A7, 1A8, 1A9 and 2B7 were mainly responsible for catalyzing the formation of two glucuronides (G1 and G2). Icaritin 3-O-glucuronidation (G1) was significantly correlated with Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) glucuronidation (r = 0.787, p = 0.002), propofol glucuronidation (r = 0.661, p = 0.019) and Zidovudine (AZT) glucuronidation (r = 0.805, p = 0.002). Similarly, icaritin 7-O-glucuronidation (G2) was also correlated with CDCA glucuronidation (r = 0.640, p = 0.025), propofol glucuronidation (r = 0.592, p = 0.043) and AZT glucuronidation (r = 0.661, p = 0.019). In addition, UGT1A3, 1A9 and 2B7 contributed 37.5, 33.8 and 21.3% for G1 in pooled HLM, respectively. Also, UGT1A3, 1A9 and 2B7 contributed 34.3, 20.0 and 8.6% for G2 in pooled HLM, respectively.4. Icaritin was subjected to significant glucuronidation, wherein UGT1A3, 1A7, 1A8, 1A9 and 2B7 were main contributing enzymes.

Background: Cabozantinib is a multiple receptor tyrosine kinases inhibitor (TKI) approved to treat progressive, metastatic medullary thyroid cancer, advanced renal cell carcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Drugdrug interactions (DDIs) for cabozantinib have been identified involving
the role of cytochromes P450. Although the previous study reported that cabozantinib showed a slight inhibition of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 at the highest concentration tested, there are no reports on the potential for UGTs-mediated-DDIs. Hence, the current study aims to address
this knowledge gap. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effect of cabozantinib on human UGTs and to quantitatively evaluate the DDI potential via UGT inhibition. Methods: The inhibitory effects of cabozantinib on UGTs were determined by measuring the formation
rates for 4- methylumbelliferone (4-MU) glucuronide and trifluoperazine N-glucuronide using recombinant human UGT isoforms in the absence or presence of cabozantinib. Inhibition kinetic studies were conducted to determine the type of inhibition of cabozantinib on UGTs and the corresponding
inhibition constant (Ki) value. In vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) was further employed to predict the potential risk of DDI in vivo. Results: Cabozantinib displayed potent inhibition of UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A4, 1A6, 1A7, 1A8, 1A9, 1A10, 2B7, and 2B15. Cabozantinib exhibited noncompetitive
inhibition towards UGT1A1 and 1A3 and inhibition towards UGT1A7 and 1A9. The Ki,u values (mean ± standard deviation) were calculated to be 2.15±0.11 μM, 0.83±0.05 μM, 0.75±0.04 μM and 0.18 ± 0.10 μM for UGT1A1, 1A3, 1A7 and 1A9, respectively.
Co-administration of cabozantinib at the clinically approved dose of 60 mg/day or 140 mg/day may result in approximately a 26% to 60% increase in the systemic exposure of drugs predominantly cleared by UGT1A9, implying a high risk of DDIs. Conclusion: Cabozantinib has the potential to
cause DDIs via the inhibition of UGT1A9; therefore, additional attention should be paid to the safety of the combined use of cabozantinib and drugs metabolized by UGT1A9.

Purpose UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are responsible for the formation of glucuronides of polyphenolic flavonoids. This study investigated the UGT1A9-mediated glucuronidation of luteolin and the kinetics of luteolin glucuronide efflux. Method HeLa cells overexpressing UGT1A9 (HeLa-UGT1A9) were used to determine the kinetics of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-mediated transport of luteolin glucuronides. Human UGT isoforms were used to determine glucuronidation rates. Results UGT1A9 was found to catalyze the production of four luteolin glucuronides, including three known monoglucuronides and a novel 3′, 4′-diglucuronide. Ko143, a potent specific inhibitor of BCRP, significantly inhibited efflux of luteolin monoglucuronides from HeLa1A9 cells and increased their intracellular levels in a dose-dependent manner. The formation of luteolin diglucuronide was observed when intracellular concentration of total monoglucuronides went above 0.07 nM. Conclusions Intracellular accumulation of diglucuronide was detected at high monoglucuronide concentrations (>0.07 nM). Diglucuronide production is speculated to be a compensatory pathway for luteolin disposition.

Baicalin (BG) is a bioactive flavonoid extracted from the dried root of the medicinal plant, Scutellaria radix (SR) (dicotyledonous family, Labiatae), and has several biological activities. Polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400) has been used as a suitable solvent for several traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) and is often used as an excipient for the compound preparation of SR. However, the drug–excipient interactions between BG and PEG400 are still unknown. Herein, we evaluated the effect of a single intravenous PEG400 administration on the BG levels of rats using pharmacokinetic and tissue distribution studies. A liver microsome and recombinant enzyme incubation system were used to further confirm the interaction mechanism between PEG400 and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) (UGT1A8 and UGT1A9). The pharmacokinetic study demonstrated that following the co-intravenous administration of PEG400 and BG, the total clearance (CL z ) of BG in the rat plasma decreased by 101.60% ( p < 0.05), whereas the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) 0-t and AUC 0-inf increased by 144.59% ( p < 0.05) and 140.05% ( p < 0.05), respectively. Additionally, the tissue distribution study showed that the concentration of BG and baicalein-6-O-β-D-glucuronide (B6G) in the tissues increased, whereas baicalein (B) in the tissues decreased, and the total amount of BG and its metabolites in tissues altered following the intravenous administration of PEG400. We further found that PEG400 induced the UGT1A8 and UGT1A9 enzyme activities by affecting the maximum enzymatic velocity (V max ) and Michaelis–Menten constant (K m ) values of UGT1A8 and UGT1A9. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that PEG400 interaction with UGTs altered the pharmacokinetic behaviors and tissue distribution characteristics of BG and its metabolites in rats.
