Alteration Analysis of genes correlated to morphine tolerance after UGT2B7 knocked down in morphine tolerance-like HL-7702 cells. (A) UGT2B7 mRNA expression or (B) protein expression was determined in the cells which transfected with siRNA (UGT2B7). Tolerance related genes of (C) MOR or (D) CaMKIIα mRNA expression was determined in siRNA(UGT2B7) transfection cells pretreated with 50 μM LCA for 48 h then co-incubated with 1 μM morphine for additional 48 h. Results were normalized to GAPDH with mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. DMSO or NC RNA were used as control. Pairwise comparisons were calculated by student t-test to calculate P-values (**p < 0.01, *p < 0.05).

Supplementary information

UGT2B7 also known as UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 is an enzyme that helps in the process of glucuronidation. This enzyme has a molecular mass of approximately 56 kDa. It is part of the UGT2B family and is mainly expressed in the liver but also found in other tissues like the kidney and intestines. UGT2B7 plays an important role in metabolizing diverse compounds including drugs and endogenous substances by adding glucuronic acid to them making them more water-soluble and easier to excrete.
Biological function summary

The glucuronidation function of UGT2B7 is important for detoxifying and eliminating hormones bilirubin and xenobiotics from the body. This enzyme does not function as part of a complex; instead it acts individually. The activity of UGT2B7 aids in maintaining homeostasis by processing toxins and facilitating their clearance from the bloodstream. As a member of the large family of UDP-glucuronosyltransferases UGT2B7 exhibits substrate specificity which ensures efficient metabolism of various substrates.

Pathways

UGT2B7 contributes to the drug metabolism pathway and bilirubin clearance pathway. It works closely with other enzymes such as cytochrome P450s which modify the substrates before UGT2B7 adds glucuronic acid. In the drug metabolism pathway the enzyme participates directly in the phase II reaction stages converting lipophilic drug molecules into hydrophilic metabolites. The enzyme's role in bilirubin clearance assists in preventing the buildup of this compound which could lead to harmful conditions.

Faulty UGT2B7 activity correlates with conditions like Gilbert's syndrome and adverse drug reactions. Gilbert’s syndrome a mild genetic condition results from reduced glucuronidation capability leading to increased levels of unconjugated bilirubin. The interaction with drugs can also impact their pharmacokinetics and dynamics resulting in toxicity or ineffectiveness. UGT2B7 activity or inhibition directly connects with the response to various drugs underlining its significance in pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine approaches.

Target data

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 : 10702251, PubMed : 15470161, PubMed : 15472229, PubMed : 17442341, PubMed : 18674515, PubMed : 18719240, PubMed : 19022937, PubMed : 23288867, PubMed : 23756265, PubMed : 26220143). Essential for the elimination and detoxification of drugs, xenobiotics and endogenous compounds (PubMed : 15470161, PubMed : 18674515, PubMed : 23756265). Catalyzes the glucuronidation of endogenous steroid hormones such as androgens (epitestosterone, androsterone) and estrogens (estradiol, epiestradiol, estriol, catechol estrogens) (PubMed : 15472229, PubMed : 17442341, PubMed : 18719240, PubMed : 19022937, PubMed : 2159463, PubMed : 23288867, PubMed : 26220143). Also regulates the levels of retinoic acid, a major metabolite of vitamin A involved in apoptosis, cellular growth and differentiation, and embryonic development (PubMed : 10702251). Contributes to bile acid (BA) detoxification by catalyzing the glucuronidation of BA substrates, which are natural detergents for dietary lipids absorption (PubMed : 23756265). Involved in the glucuronidation of the AGTR1 angiotensin receptor antagonist losartan, caderastan and zolarsatan, drugs which can inhibit the effect of angiotensin II (PubMed : 18674515). Also metabolizes mycophenolate, an immunosuppressive agent (PubMed : 15470161).
