  • Title: UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity exhibits two developmental groups in liver from foetal rhesus monkeys.
    Author: Leakey JE, Althaus ZR, Bailey JR, Slikker W.
    Journal: Biochem J; 1983 Sep 15; 214(3):1007-9. PubMed ID: 6414458.
    Abstract:
    UDP-glucuronyltransferase was assayed in liver from adult rhesus monkeys and foetuses during late gestation. Activities toward 2-aminophenol, 5-hydroxytryptamine, 1-naphthol and 4-nitrophenol in the foetal liver ranged from 46 to 114% of adult values, whereas activities toward bilirubin, oestradiol and testosterone were less than 5% of adult values. This suggests that in primates UDP-glucuronyltransferase develops differentially in two clusters analogous to that in the rat.
