General description

4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) is a coumarin derivative.

Application

4-Methylumbelliferone sodium salt has been used:
  • as a substrate to analyze the enzyme kinetics of its glucuronidation in the human liver
  • as a standard to quantify the free 4-methylumbelliferone released as a result of enzyme-substrate action
  • in cell survival assay to inhibit hyaluronan (HA) production and to study its effect on chemoresistance in ovarian cancer

Biochem/physiol Actions

4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) serves as a hyaluronan (HA) synthesis blocker. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrogenic, and antitumor properties. 4-MU is used to treat biliary spasms and might also be beneficial in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), inflammation, hepatocyte injury, and fibrotic response. 4-MU is known to be glucuronidated by most of the uridine 5ฺ-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoforms of the human liver. This makes it a potent probe substrate to examine the overall hepatic UGTs activity.

A β-glucuronidase variant, GUS-TR3337, that was obtained by directed evolution exhibited higher thermostability than the wild-type enzyme, GUS-WT. In this study, the utility of GUS-TR337 as an improved reporter was evaluated. The corresponding gus-tr3337 and gus-wt genes were independently cloned

Avian influenza A (H5N1) viruses represent a growing threat for an influenza pandemic. The presence of widespread avian influenza virus infections further emphasizes the need for vaccine strategies for control of pre-pandemic H5N1 and other avian influenza subtypes. Influenza neuraminidase
