Raloxifene 4’-glucuronide is a metabolite of the selective estrogen receptor modulator raloxifene (Item No. 10011620).1 It is formed from raloxifene via the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoforms UGT1A1, UGT1A8, and UGT1A10.2 It binds to the estrogen receptor with an IC50 value of 370 nM.1 Raloxifene 4’-glucuronide inhibits the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv4.3 by 6.2 and 20.1% when used at concentrations of 10 and 30 µM, respectively.3
