Formation of (2R)- and (2S)-8-Prenylnaringenin Glucuronides by Human UDP-Glucuronosyltransferases.

ABSTRACT: Occurring in hops (Humulus lupulus) and beer as a racemic mixture, (2R,2S)-8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN) is a potent phytoestrogen in hop dietary supplements used by women as alternatives to conventional hormone therapy. With a half-life exceeding 20 h, 8-PN is excreted primarily as 8-PN-7-O-glucuronide or 8-PN-4'-O-glucuronide. Human liver microsomes and 11 recombinant human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) were used to catalyze the formation of the two oxygen-linked glucuronides of purified (2R)-8-PN and (2S)-8-PN, which were subsequently identified using mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Formation of (2R)- and (2S)-8-PN-7-O-glucuronides predominated over the 8-PN-4'-O-glucuronides except for intestinal UGT1A10, which formed more (2S)-8-PN-4'-O-glucuronide. (2R)-8-PN was a better substrate for all 11 UGTs except for UGT1A1, which formed more of both (2S)-8-PN glucuronides than (2R)-8-PN glucuronides. Although several UGTs conjugated both enantiomers of 8-PN, some conjugated just one enantiomer, suggesting that human phenotypic variation might affect the routes of metabolism of this chiral estrogenic constituent of hops.

Project description:2-Amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (A?C) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) are carcinogenic heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAA) that arise during the burning of tobacco and cooking of meats. UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) detoxicate many procarcinogens and their metabolites. The genotoxic N-hydroxylated metabolite of A?C, 2-hydroxyamino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (HONH-A?C), undergoes glucuronidation to form the isomeric glucuronide (Gluc) conjugates N(2)-(?-d-glucosidurony1)-2-hydroxyamino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (A?C-HON(2)-Gluc) and O-(?-d-glucosidurony1)-2-hydroxyamino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (A?C-HN(2)-O-Gluc). A?C-HON(2)-Gluc is a stable metabolite but A?C-HN(2)-O-Gluc is a biologically reactive intermediate, which covalently adducts to DNA at levels that are 20-fold higher than HONH-A?C. We measured the rates of formation of A?C-HON(2)-Gluc and A?C-HN(2)-O-Gluc in human organs: highest activity occurred with liver and kidney microsomes, and lesser activity was found with colon and rectum microsomes. A?C-HN(2)-O-Gluc formation was largely diminished in liver and kidney microsomes, by niflumic acid, a selective inhibitor UGT1A9. In contrast, A?C-HON(2)-Gluc formation was less affected and other UGT contribute to N(2)-glucuronidation of HONH-A?C. UGT were reported to catalyze the formation of isomeric Gluc conjugates at the N(2) and N3 atoms of 2-hydroxyamino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (HONH-PhIP), the genotoxic metabolite of PhIP. However, we found that the N3-Gluc of HONH-PhIP also covalently bound to DNA at higher levels than HONH-PhIP. The product ion spectra of this Gluc conjugate acquired by ion trap mass spectrometry revealed that the Gluc moiety was linked to the oxygen atom of HONH-PhIP and not the N3 imidazole atom of the oxime tautomer of HONH-PhIP as was originally proposed. UGT1A9, an abundant UGT isoform expressed in human liver and kidney, preferentially forms the O-linked Gluc conjugates of HONH-A?C and HONH-PhIP as opposed to their detoxicated N(2)-Gluc isomers. The regioselective O-glucuronidation of HONH-A?C and HONH-PhIP, by UGT1A9, is a mechanism of bioactivation of these ubiquitous HAAs.
