Descriptor glucurónidos
Entry term(s) glucurónido
Scope note: Glicósidos del ÁCIDO GLUCURÓNICO formados por la reacción de la URIDINA DIFOSFAFTO DEL ÁCIDO GLUCURÓNICO con ciertas sustancias endógenas y exógenas. Su formación es importante para la destoxificación de fármacos, excreción de esteroides y metabolismo de la BILIRRUBINA a un compuesto más hidrosoluble que puede eliminarse por la ORINA y la BILIS.

Scope note: Glycosides of GLUCURONIC ACID formed by the reaction of URIDINE DIPHOSPHATE GLUCURONIC ACID with certain endogenous and exogenous substances. Their formation is important for the detoxification of drugs, steroid excretion and BILIRUBIN metabolism to a more water-soluble compound that can be eliminated in the URINE and BILE.
