Stereoselective Glucuronidation of Ornidazole in Humans: Predominant Contribution of UDP-Glucuronosyltransferases 1A9 and 2B7

Abstract: Ornidazole [R,S-1-chloro-3-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propan-2-ol] is a chiral 5-nitroimidazole class antimicrobial agent. This study aimed to investigate the principal metabolic pathway of ornidazole in humans and identify the major enzymes involved. A total of 19 metabolites were identified in human urine collected from patients with hepatobiliary diseases after an intravenous drip infusion of 500 mg of racemic ornidazole. Stereoselective glucuronidation, followed by renal excretion, was the principa… Show more

UGT1A4 conjugates nondrug xenobiotics such as sapogenins (i.e., hecogenin, diosgenin, tigogenin) (220), nicotine (720), and the nicotine-derived tobacco-specific nitrosamine 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNAL) (a wellknown lung carcinogen) (760).…”

“…In fact, UGT1A9 and UGT2B7 showed glucuronidation activities toward a broad range of compounds containing an alcoholic hydroxyl group. These compounds include 1 0 -hydroxyestragole (Iyer et al, 2003), 3 0 -azido-3 0 -deoxythymidine (Barbier et al, 2000), 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (Ren et al, 2000), 4-hydroxyretinoic acid (Samokyszyn et al, 2000), almokalant (Gaiser et al, 2003), bicalutamide (Grosse et al, 2013), dihydroartemisinin (Ilett et al, 2002), ethanol (Al Saabi et al, 2013Schwab & Skopp, 2014), ornidazole (Du et al, 2013), propafenone (Xie and Zeng, 2010), propranolol (Yu et al, 2010) and R-oxazepam (Court et al, 2002). It should be noted that both hepatic and renal UGTs would contribute to the metabolism of these curcumin analogs, because UGT1A9 and UGT2B7 were abundantly expressed in human liver and kidney (Fallon et al, 2013a;Sato et al, 2014).…”

“…It has an elimination half-life of 11-14 h, which is approximately 1.7 times that of metronidazole [6][7][8]. Ornidazole is mainly metabolized in the liver through glucuronidation, with other metabolic pathways including oxidation and hydrolysis [9]. The majority of the prodrug and its metabolites are eliminated by the kidneys and excreted in the urine (about 70%), and only a small fraction is excreted in the bile and feces (about 20%) [10].…”
