Abstract

The mechanism of the inhibition of glucuronidation by long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs was studied in rat liver microsomal membranes and in isolated hepatocytes. Palmitoyl and oleoyl-CoA did not affect p-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity in native microsomes but were inhibitory in permeabilised vesicles. The extent of inhibition was dependent on the effectiveness of permeabilisation and was constant in time in fully permeabilised microsomes. Fatty acyl-CoAs mobilised calcium from calcium-loaded microsomes. Elevation of the intracellular acyl-CoA level by the addition oi palmitate or oleate inhibited that glucuronidation of p-nitrophenol in isolated hepatocytes. This effect could be abolished by emptying the intracellular calcium stores. Therefore, it is concluded that fatty acyl-CoAs inhibit glucuronidation indirectly, presumably via calcium mobilisation.
