The purpose of this pilot study is to gather preliminary data on the (1) contribution of the understudied drug metabolizing enzyme, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2B17, to the metabolism of a widely used medication, diclofenac, and (2) impact of the UGT2B17 inhibitor and natural product, curcumin, on diclofenac pharmacokinetics. Results will inform future studies aimed to assess the effects of UGT2B17 genetic polymorphisms and co-consumed xenobiotics on the pharmacokinetics and toxicity risk of diclofenac and other UGT2B17 drug substrates.
