Title

Intestinal glucuronidation metabolism may have a greater impact on oral bioavailability than hepatic glucuronidation metabolism in humans:

Summary

The kinetic impact of intestinal glucuronidation metabolism on oral bioavailability was assessed using reported human data of raloxifene, of which oral bioavailability was only 2%. Presystemic intestinal availability was 5.4%, whereas fraction absorbed and hepatic availability were 63% and 59.3%, respectively. Thereby, UGTs in the intestine may play important roles in the first-pass metabolism.
