Abstract：
:Dulcin (DL), now banned, was once a widely used artificial sweetener. DL possesses an ureido group that is metabolized by direct glucuronidation in rabbit liver microsomes. Dulcin N-glucuronide (DNG) is the only type of ureido N-glucuronide known to date; ureido glucuronidation in humans has not been previously reported. Accordingly, the glucuronidation of DL was studied using human liver microsomes (HLM) and expressed human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes. The average K (m) and V (max) values from nine HLM samples were 2.10 mM and 0.156 nmol/mg/min, respectively. Of the six human UGT isoforms screened for their ability to glucuronidate DL, only UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 showed activity. The apparent K (m) values using UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 were 5.06 and 6.99 mM, and the apparent V (max) values were 0.0461 and 0.106 nmol/min/mg, respectively. Phenolphthalein, a substrate for UGT1A9, inhibited DL glucuronidation in HLM competitively (K (i) = 0.356 mM), but bilirubin, a substrate for UGT1A1, did not. These results suggest that UGT1A9 is a key enzyme catalyzing the glucuronidation of DL.
