An NSAID. Circumvents MRP-mediated multidrug resistance. Significantly increases the cytotoxicity of the anthracyclines (doxorubicin, daunorubicin and epirubicin), as well as teniposide, VP-16 and vincristine.
Acyl glucuronides are reactive electrophilic metabolites of carboxylate drugs, capable of undergoing hydrolysis, rearrangement and covalent binding reactions with proteins in vivo. Such covalent drug-protein adducts may be prerequisites for certain idiosyncratic immune and toxic responses in susceptible individuals. The

Zomepirac (ZP), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that was withdrawn from use, is metabolized to zomepirac-1-O-acyl-glucuronide (ZP-1-O-G), a chemically reactive conjugate that has been implicated in the toxicity of the drug. In the present studies, we investigated the ability of ZP
Social science & medicine (1982), 46(1), 39-51 (1998-02-17)
This article systematically examines government regulation of medicines in the U.K. and the U.S. with specific reference to carcinogenic risk assessment. By taking four non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as case studies, it is argued that there have been inconsistencies between
Journal of pharmacological and toxicological methods, 41(1), 27-32 (1999-10-03)
The covalent binding of drugs or their metabolites to proteins is of increasing interest in the investigation of the toxicity of these compounds. Recent attention on biological consequences of protein adduct formation with carboxylate drugs, derived via their reactive acyl
Chemical research in toxicology, 18(11), 1729-1736 (2005-11-23)
Zomepirac [ZP, 5-(chlorobenzoyl)-1,4-dimethylpyrrole-2-acetic acid] was withdrawn from the market because of unpredictable allergic reactions that may have been caused by ZP-protein adducts formed by reaction of the reactive acyl glucuronide of ZP (ZP-O-G) with endogenous proteins. To test the hypothesis
Protein-based drug transporters are expressed in Sf9 cells. Understanding the specific mechanisms of tumor cell transporters is an essential aspect of chemotherapeutic drug design.
