Stimulation
Williams et al. (2002)
  • a Pooled human liver microsomes using estradiol 3-glucuronidation as a marker for UGT1A1 activity (Williams et al., 2002) unless indicated

  • b Recombinant UGT1A1 using HFC as substrate (Goosen et al., 2004). Ethinylestradiol stimulation of estradiol 3-glucuronidation was maximal (180% of control activity) at the lowest tested ethinylestradiol concentration (5 μM)
