Application

Application	Comment	Organism
medicine	dichloroacetate, a degradation product of chloral hydrate, is further metabolized by glutathione transferase zeta 1, and inhibits its own metabolism through depletion/inactivation of GSTZ1/MAAI with repeated exposure, resulting in lower plasma clearance of the drug and the accumulation of the urinary biomarker maleylacetone. The amount of dichloroacetate produced from clinically relevant doses of chloral hydrate, although insufficient to alter dichloroacetate kinetics, is sufficient to inhibit MAAI and tyrosine catabolism	Homo sapiens
