Identification of some plasma metabolites of 6, 7-3-H-estrone glucosiduronate in male dogs.
Following the constant infusion of 6, 7-3-H-estrone glucosiduronate in male dogs for a period of 120 minutes, the radioactive metabolites present in the plasma were separated by solvent partition, DEAE-Sephapadex, Celite partition and thin layer chromatography. The identities of the individual estrogens and estrogen conjugates were confirmed by specific activity determinations after chromatography in several different solvent systems, enzyme hydrolysis and steroids and their derivatives. Most of the radioactivity in the plasma was identified as estrone glucosiduronate. The major metabolite present was estradiol-17-beta-3-glucosiduronate. Small amounts of estradiol-17-alpha-3-glucosiduronate and free estrone were also identified. Three other minor conjugates were separated, but positive identification could not be made.
