Abstract excerpt
AIM: 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), the active metabolite of irinotecan, is mainly eliminated hepatically through glucuronidation by UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 enzymes. This study comprehensively investigates the effects of UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 genetic polymorphism on SN-38 glucuronidation activity. MATERIALS & METHODS: Genetic polymorphisms and combinational haplotypes of UGT1A1 and UGT1A9, SN-38 glucuronidation...
