Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-UGT antibody [7H2AF11] (AB129729)

Immunocytochemistry image of ab129729 stained Hela cells. The cells were paraformaldehyde fixed (4%, 20 min) and Triton X-100 permeabilized (0.1%, 15min). The cells were incubated with ab129729 at 5 µg/ml for 2h at room temperature or over night at 4°C. The secondary antibody was (red) AlexaFluor® 594 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. 1% BSA was used as the blocking agent for all blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). The target protein locates to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-UGT antibody [7H2AF11] (AB129729)

IHC image of UGT staining in Human Normal liver formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab129729, 5μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Supplementary information

The protein UGT also known as UDP-glucuronosyltransferase plays a significant role in the process of glucuronidation. Mechanically UGT facilitates the transfer of glucuronic acid from UDP-glucuronic acid to various substrates including hormones and drugs which increases their solubility in water. The mass of UGT proteins can vary depending on isoform types generally ranging from 50 to 60 kDa. UGT is mainly expressed in the liver but it is also found in the intestine kidneys and other tissues reflecting its comprehensive role in metabolism.
Biological function summary

The UGT enzymes function in detoxification processes by converting lipophilic substances into more water-soluble metabolites which can then be excreted from the body. UGT forms part of a multienzyme complex involved in phase II drug metabolism. It also interacts with other enzymes involved in conjugation pathways like sulfotransferases to ensure efficient and effective elimination of potentially harmful compounds.

Pathways

UGT enzymes play a pivotal role in the glucuronidation pathway which is a part of phase II of drug metabolism. This pathway connects to larger detoxification networks involving cytochrome P450 enzymes such as CYP3A4 which provide substrates for glucuronidation. Together these enzymes participate in xenobiotic metabolism impacting drug efficacy and safety by modifying drugs and endogenous compounds.

UGT enzymes have implications in inherited metabolic disorders like Crigler-Najjar syndrome which results from mutations in the gene encoding UGT1A1 leading to impaired bilirubin conjugation. UGT's activity is also linked to the development of hyperbilirubinemia or Gilbert's syndrome a milder condition characterized by intermittent jaundice. Additionally diseases such as cancer and the protein's interaction with other metabolic enzymes like GST (glutathione S-transferase) can modulate drug resistance affecting treatment outcomes.

Target data

Isoform 1. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) that catalyzes phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase the metabolite's water solubility, thereby facilitating excretion into either the urine or bile (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 15470161, PubMed : 15472229, PubMed : 18004212, PubMed : 18052087, PubMed : 18674515, PubMed : 19545173, PubMed : 15231852, PubMed : 21422672, PubMed : 38211441). Essential for the elimination and detoxification of drugs, xenobiotics and endogenous compounds (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 18004212). Catalyzes the glucuronidation of endogenous estrogen hormones such as estradiol and estrone (PubMed : 15472229). Involved in the glucuronidation of arachidonic acid (AA) and AA-derived eicosanoids including 15-HETE, PGB1 and F2-isoprostanes (8-iso-PGF2alpha and 5-epi-5-F2t-IsoP) (PubMed : 15231852, PubMed : 38211441). Glucuronates the phytochemical ferulic acid efficently at both the phenolic or the carboxylic acid group (PubMed : 21422672). Also catalyzes the glucuronidation of the isoflavones genistein, daidzein, glycitein, formononetin, biochanin A and prunetin, which are phytoestrogens with anticancer and cardiovascular properties (PubMed : 18052087, PubMed : 19545173). Involved in the glucuronidation of the AGTR1 angiotensin receptor antagonist caderastan, a drug which can inhibit the effect of angiotensin II (PubMed : 18674515). Involved in the biotransformation of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), the pharmacologically active metabolite of the anticancer drug irinotecan (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 20610558). Also metabolizes mycophenolate, an immunosuppressive agent (PubMed : 15470161, PubMed : 18004212).. Isoform 2. Lacks UGT glucuronidation activity but acts as a negative regulator of isoform 1.
