ABSTRACT

El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la frecuencia de las variantes del gen CYP2D6: *4, *6 y *10 y predecir el fenotipo metabolizador en una muestra de 145 individuos no consanguíneos, aparentemente sanos, residentes del estado Aragua, Venezuela. Los genotipos fueron determinados mediante ensayos de reacción en cadena de la polimerasa seguidos de digestión con endonucleasas de restricción. La predicción del fenotipo metabolizador se realizó con base al sistema Activity score. Las frecuencias de CYP2D6 *4, *6 y *10 fueron de 14,5%, 0,3% y 1%, respectivamente; un porcentaje significativo de individuos fueron categorizados como metabolizador rápido heterocigoto/metabolizador intermedio (23,5%) y metabolizador lento (4,1%). Esta información tiene impacto clínico potencial, porque CYP2D6 interviene en el metabolismo de fármacos de prescripción frecuente como: carvedilol, captopril, cloroquina, codeína, fluoxetina, fluvastatina, haloperidol, idarrubicina, indinavir, imatinib, loperamida, nifedipina, ondansetrón y tamoxifeno...


The aim of this study was to determine the CYP2D6: * 4, * 6 and * 10 gene variants frequency and to predict the metabolizer phenotype in a sample of 145 unrelated apparently healthy individuals residing in the state of Aragua, Venezuela. Genotypes were determined by Polymerase chain reaction assays followed by restriction endonucleases digestion. The metabolizer phenotype prediction was made based on the activity score system. The frequencies of CYP2D6 * 4, * 6 and * 10 allelic variants were 14.5%, 0.3% and 1%. A significant percentage of individuals were categorized as heterozygote-extensive/intermediate (23.5%) and poor metabolizers (4.1%), this information has potential clinical impact, because the CYP2D6 protein is involved in the metabolism of drugs frequently prescribed as: carvedilol, captopril, chloroquine, codeine, fluoxetine, fluvastatin, haloperidol, idarubicin, indinavir, imatinib, loperamide, nifedipine, ondansetron and tamoxifen...
