Application

Testosterone has been used as a substrate for UDP-glucuronyltransferase based drug metabolism assays using microsome-encapsulation techniques.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Androgens direct the development of the male phenotype during embryogenesis and at puberty. Testosterone is an androgen that is secreted by the testis. This hormone is converted to dihydrotestosterone in the target tissues where it appears to mediate several biological functions.

Two molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) that we recently described to be class-selective for glucuronides have been successfully exploited for the molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction (MISPE) of testosterone glucuronide (TG) from its parent drug (T) in urine. Both sorbents targeted the

Testosterone and epitestosterone are endogenous steroids that differ in the configuration of the hydroxyl-bearing carbon at C-17. Testosterone is the predominant male sex hormone, whereas the role of epitestosterone is largely unclear. In humans, both androgens are excreted mainly as

The interactions between UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isozymes, UGT1s and UGT2B1, in rat hepatic microsomes were investigated using an immunopurification technique with anti-peptide antibodies and a chemical cross-linking strategy. A 50 kDa protein coimmunopurified with UGT1s was identified as UGT2B1 by amino-terminal

Testosterone administration to male athletes can be safely detected in the vast majority of cases by the urinary excretion ratio of testosterone to epitestosterone glucuronides (TG/EG), which may not exceed 6. Some rare cases of physiologically high TG/EG ratios (between

Direct detection of several steroid glucuronide and sulfate conjugates was achieved with electrospray reversed-phase HPLC-mass spectrometry. Separation of steroid 17-OH or 5-H epimers conjugated with glucuronide or sulfate could be achieved using gradient elution. Testosterone glucuronide, testosterone sulfate, epitestosterone sulfate
