Chloramphenicol (CP), a broad spectrum antibiotic, is eliminated in humans by glucuronidation. The primary UGT enzymes responsible for CP O -glucuronidation remain unidentified. We have previously identified the 3- O -CP (major) and 1- O -CP (minor) glucuronides by β-glucuronidase hydrolysis, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and 1D/2D H NMR. Reaction phenotyping for the glucuronidation of CP with 12 expressed human liver UGT isoforms has identified UGT2B7 as having the highest activity for 3- O - and 1- O -CP glucuronidation with minor contributions from UGT1A6 and UGT1A9. The kinetics of CP 3- O -glucuronidation by pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs) exhibited biphasic Michaelis-Menten kinetics with the apparent high-affinity K m1 and low-affinity K m2 values of 46.0 and 1027 μM, whereas expressed UGT2B7 exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with the apparent K m value of 109.1 μM. The formation of 1- O -CP glucuronide by pooled HLM and expressed UGT2B7 exhibited substrate inhibition kinetics with apparent K m values of 408.2 and 115.0 μM, respectively. Azidothymidine (AZT) and hyodeoxycholic acid (substrates of UGT2B7) inhibited 3- O - and 1- O -CP glucuronidation in pooled HLMs. In 10 donor HLM preparations, both CP 3- O - and CP 1- O -glucuronidation showed a significant correlation with AZT glucuronidation (UGT2B7) ( r s = 0.85 and r s = 0.83, respectively) at 30 μM CP, whereas no significant correlation was observed between CP 3- O -glucuronidation and serotonin glucuronidation (UGT1A6) or propofol glucuronidation (UGT1A9) at this CP concentration. These results suggest that UGT2B7 is the primary human hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferase isoform catalyzing 3- O - and 1- O -CP glucuronidation with minor contributions from UGT1A6 and UGT1A9.
氯霉素(CP)是一种广谱抗生素,在人体内通过葡糖醛酸化途径被清除。负责CP O-葡糖醛酸化的主要UGT酶仍然未被识别。我们之前通过β-葡糖醛酸苷酶水解、液相色谱-串联质谱和1D/2D 1H NMR鉴定了3-O-CP(主要)和1-O-CP(次要)葡糖醛酸苷。对12种表达的人肝UGT同工酶的CP葡糖醛酸化反应表型进行鉴定,发现UGT2B7对3-O-和1-O-CP葡糖醛酸化活性最高,UGT1A6和UGT1A9有较小贡献。人肝微粒体(HLMs)中CP 3-O-葡糖醛酸化动力学呈双相米氏动力学,高亲和力Km1值和低亲和力Km2值分别为46.0μM和1027μM,而表达的UGT2B7呈现单相米氏动力学,Km值为109.1μM。人肝微粒体和表达的UGT2B7的1-O-CP葡糖醛酸苷形成呈现底物抑制动力学,Km值分别为408.2μM和115.0μM。叠氮胸苷(AZT)和猪胆酸(UGT2B7的底物)抑制了人肝微粒体中的3-O-和1-O-CP葡糖醛酸化。在10个供体的人肝微粒体中,30μM CP时,CP 3-O-和CP 1-O-葡糖醛酸化与AZT葡糖醛酸化(UGT2B7)显著相关(rs=0.85和rs=0.83),而CP 3-O-葡糖醛酸化与5-羟色胺葡糖醛酸化(UGT1A6)或丙泊酚葡糖醛酸化(UGT1A9)在此CP浓度下无显著相关性。这些结果表明,UGT2B7是催化3-O-和1-O-CP葡糖醛酸化的主要人肝UDP-葡糖醛酸基转移酶同工酶,UGT1A6和UGT1A9有较小贡献。
