Androsterone glucuronide
Androsterone glucuronide (ADT-G) is one of the major circulating C19-steroid metabolites in humans. Human and monkey are unique in having high levels of circulating ADT-G. Furthermore, the plasma levels of these glucuronide derivatives reflect the peripheral tissue conversion of adrenal and gonadal precursor C19-steroids to active androgens in various pathophysiological conditions. Identification and characterization of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B (UGT2Bs) demonstrated the major role that these enzymes play in androgen conjugation, with UGT2B15 and UGT2B17 (EC 2.4.1.17) being the major androsterone-conjugating isoforms. Exaggerated androsterone metabolism, is observed in hyper-androgenic as well as in some normo-androgenic women with acne and androsterone glucuronide could be a marker in differentiating acne and hirsutism in hyperandrogenic women. Present data shows that the most practical and probably only valid means of assessing androgenic activity in women is to measure ADT-G, the metabolite that accounts for 93\\% of the total androgen glucuronide derivatives.

Testosterone glucuronide
Testosterone glucuronide is a natural human metabolite of testosterone. Testosterone is a steroid hormone from the androgen group. testosterone is primarily secreted in the testes of males and the ovaries of females although small amounts are secreted by the adrenal glands. It is the principal male sex hormone and an anabolic steroid. In both males and females, it plays key roles in health and well-being. There is a sex difference in the median values of testosterone glucuronide in the amniotic fluid specimens 15-19 wk gestation between female (median 160 pM, range 64-465 pM) and male (median 817 pM, range 68-3707 pM). This difference, when used in conjunction with amniotic fluid unconjugated testosterone values, increase the predictive accuracy of fetal sexing from 95.4 to 98.9\\\%. In human newborns and young infants, urinary testosterone sulfate is higher than glucuronide. The high sulfokinase activity in fetal and neonatal testes is more likely responsible for this phenomenon than an impaired glucuronizing capacity of the liver. Urinary excretion of testosterone glucuronide increases significantly during puberty. The level of testosterone glucuronide exceeds the level of unconjugated testosterone in human seminal plasma. Urinary testosterone glucuronide excretion is increased in women with virilizing adrenocortical tumors. Concentration of testosterone glucuronide in urine from women with breast tumor in urine samples is not different from patients with benign or malignant breast disease, either before or after the menopause.

Estrone glucuronide
Estrone-glucuronide is the dominant metabolite of estradiol. Estrone glucuronide is formed by a UDP glucuronyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.17, UTP) reaction creating a much more water-soluble form of the hormone; glucuronides are the most abundant estrogen conjugates. Measurement of estrone-glucuronide is used as one reference method for determining ovulation (immunotubes are available for measuring urinary estrone glucuronide in conjunction with LH, one of the most advanced of ovulation prediction products).
