2. Template:Amphetamine pharmacokinetics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Amphetamine...

   Notes and references that are transcluded with this template Notes ^ 4-Hydroxyamphetamine has been shown to be metabolized into 4-hydroxynorephedrine by dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) in vitro and it is presumed to be metabolized similarly in vivo .

3. Drug metabolism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_metabolism

   Drug metabolism is the metabolic breakdown of drugs by living organisms, usually through specialized enzymatic systems. More generally, xenobiotic metabolism (from the Greek xenos "stranger" and biotic "related to living beings") is the set of metabolic pathways that modify the chemical structure of xenobiotics, which are compounds foreign to an organism's normal biochemistry, such as any drug ...

4. Pentose phosphate pathway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentose_phosphate_pathway

   [2] [3] There are two distinct phases in the pathway. The first is the oxidative phase, in which NADPH is generated, and the second is the non-oxidative synthesis of five-carbon sugars. For most organisms, the pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol; in plants, most steps take place in plastids. [4]

5. Xenobiotic metabolism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenobiotic_metabolism

   Cytochrome P450 oxidases are important enzymes in xenobiotic metabolism.. Xenobiotic metabolism (from the Greek xenos "stranger" and biotic "related to living beings") is the set of metabolic pathways that modify the chemical structure of xenobiotics, which are compounds foreign to an organism's normal biochemistry, such as drugs and poisons.

6. First pass effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_pass_effect

   [1] [2] The effect is most associated with orally administered medications, but some drugs still undergo first-pass metabolism even when delivered via an alternate route (e.g., IV, IM, etc.). [3] During this metabolism, drug is lost during the process of absorption which is generally related to the liver and gut wall. The liver is the major ...

7. Committed step - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committed_step

   [1] [2] As the name implies, after this step, the molecules are "committed" to the pathway and will ultimately end up in the pathway's final product. The first committed step should not be confused with the rate-limiting step, which is the step with the highest flux control coefficient. It is rare that the first committed step is in fact the ...

8. ADME - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADME

   ADME is the four-letter abbreviation (acronym) for absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, and is mainly used in fields such as pharmacokinetics and pharmacology. The four letter stands for descriptors quantifying how a given drug interacts within body over time.

9. Phosphorylation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorylation

   Phosphorylation of glucose is a key reaction in sugar metabolism. The chemical equation for the conversion of D-glucose to D-glucose-6-phosphate in the first step of glycolysis is given by: D-glucose + ATP → D-glucose 6-phosphate + ADP ΔG° = −16.7 kJ/mol (° indicates measurement at standard condition)
