A higher proportion of human UGT promoters were found to contain consensus CREs compared to the rat homologs. UGTs 1a6, 2b17 and 2b37 were upregulated by PB in rat liver 3D microtissues, but unaltered in human liver 3D microtissues. By contrast, human UGTs 1A8, 1A10 and 2B10 showed higher levels of induction (RNA and /or protein) compared to the rat homologs. There was general concordance between the presence of CREs and the induction of UGT RNA. As UGT1A and 2B isoforms metabolise T4, these results suggest that differences in UGT in
