Abstract excerpt
One of the most important mechanisms involved in host defense against xenobiotic chemicals and endogenous toxins is the glucuronidation catalysed by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes (UGT). The role of genetic factors in determining variable rates of glucuronidation is not well understood, but...
