SN-38 glucuronide (SN-38G) is an inactive metabolite of Irinotecan, an anticancer active molecule, and has toxic effects on the gastrointestinal tract. Irinotecan functions as a topoisomerase I inhibitor and is utilized in research related to colon and rectal cancer.
- Cells capable of metabolizing SN-38 to SN-38G show increased resistance to extracellular SN-38.
- Can serve as a substrate for gut microbial β-glucuronidase enzymes.
- These enzymes remove the glucuronic acid moiety, which reactivates SN-38.
- Reactivation of SN-38 in the intestine can intensify its toxic effects on the gut.
