Abstract excerpt
The dietary polyphenol resveratrol (RES) exists as cis- and trans-isomers with known stereospecific and stereoselective glucuronidation at the 3 and 4' positions by distinct UGT1A isoforms. We examined cis-RES glucuronidation in various protein sources. UGT1A6 or UGT1A1 genotype-dependent cis-or trans-RES glucuronidation, respectively, was further determined. cis-RES exhibited partial substrate inhibition in...
