METHODS: The blood samples of 1 169 patients from 6 tertiary general hospitals in 5 areas of Anhui province from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected, the genotype of CYP2C9∗3 and VKORC1-1639G>A was detected by fluorescent staining in situ hybridization technique. RESULTS: The distribution of CYP2C9∗3 genotypes in 1 169 patients: the frequencies of AA, AC and CC genes were 90.16%, 9.24% and 0.60%, respectively; The distribution of VKORC1 genotype: the frequencies of AA, AG and GG genes were 84.26%, 14.71% and 1.03% respectively; There was no significant difference between the two genotypes in gender, age and regional distribution (P>0.05). The average daily warfarin dose of CYP2C9∗3 AA genotype in 755 patients with stable warfarin dose was (3.02±0.59) mg/d, which was significantly higher than patients with AC genotype and CC genotype; The average daily warfarin dose of patients with VKORC1-1639AA genotype was (2.72±0.40) mg/d, which was significantly lower than that of patients with AG genotype and GG genotype (P<0.05). And the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); There are significant differences in gender, age and clinical diagnosis between patients with stable dose of warfarin and those without stable dose (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes are associated with the stable dose of warfarin. Clinical anticoagulation therapy guided by CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes can provide guidance for individualized medication of warfarin.

A clinical study of genetic testing to guide the dosing of warfarin after heart valve replacement / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective:To explore the role of genetic testing of VKORC1 and CYP2C9 in determining the dosage of warfarin after aortic valve replacement.Methods:A total of 172 patients receiving warfarin after aortic valve replacement were divided into a control group(86 cases) and an experimental(86 cases) group based on acceptance of genetic testing. In the experimental group, three loci of VKORC1 and CYP2C9 were tested by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique, and the initial dose of warfarin was determined based on the genetic testing results and warfarin oral-dose table recommended by U. S. Food and Drug Administration(FDA). In the control group, warfarin(3 mg/d) was used as the initial dose. The international normalized ratio(INR) of each patient was continuously monitored after medication. The percentages of patients meeting the target INR in the two groups at specific time points and at 3-month follow-up after discharge from the hospital were monitored, and the incidence of various adverse events was compared between the groups.Results:Based on the results of genetic testing, 68 patients received 3 mg/d(79.1%), 10 patients received 1.5 mg/d(11.6%), and eight patients received 6 mg/d(9.3%) as the initial dosages of warfarin in the experimental group. The percentages of the patients meeting the target INR on the third and sixth day of postoperative medication were 45.3% and 73.3%, respectively, in the experimental group, and 29.8% and 58.3%, respectively, in the control group( P<0.05). The INR critical values during hospitalization occurred in 2.3% in the experimental group and in 7.1% in the control group, while the percentage of the patients meeting the target INR after 3 months was 86.1% in the experimental group and 83.1% in the control group. Conclusion:Genetic testing may guide the selection of the initial dose of warfarin after heart valve replacement to rapidly achieve a stable dose.

Effects of CYP2C9*3 Gene Polymorphism on Therapeutic Efficacy of Benzbromarone in Lowering Uric Acid and Its Hepatotoxicity / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE：To study the effects o f CYP2C9*3 gene polymorphism on therapeutic efficacy of benzbromarone in lowering uric acid and its hepatotoxicity. METHODS ：A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the relevant clinical indicators and genotypes of 196 gout patients who received benzbromarone and CYP2C9*3 gene polymorphism test in Wuhan third hospital from Jan. 2018 to Sept. 2019. RESULTS ：Among 196 patients，179，15 and 2 patients with CYP2C9*3 genotypes * 1/*1， *1/*3 and * 3/*3 genotypes were found ，respectively，and the distribution of each genotype was in line with Hardy-Weinberg balance（P＞0.05）. Before treatment ，there were no significant differences in the levels of UA ，Scr，ALT，AST and CRP between *1/*1 genotype and * 1/*3+*3/*3 genotype（P＞0.05）. After 4 weeks of treatment ，the UA ，Scr，CRP levels of patients with * 1/*1 genotype as well as the UA and CRP levels of patients with * 1/*3+*3/*3 genotype were significantly reduced ，the UA level of patients with * 1/*1 genotype was significantly lower than that of patients with * 1/*3+*3/*3 genotype（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The ALT and AST levels had no obvious changes in patients with different genotype before and after treatment ，and they were in the normal range. No serious abnormal liver function was observed during the treatment. CONCLUSIONS ：Therapeutic efficacy of benzbromarone in lowering uric acid in gout patients with CYP2C9*3 genotypes * 1/*1 genotype is better than that of * 1/*3 and * 3/*3 genotypes. However ，the gene polymorphism may be not associated with its hepatotoxicity.

Efecto de las variantes de CYP2C9 sobre la dosis de losartán en hipertensos chilenos / Association between cytochrome p4502c9 polymorphisms and losartan dosing in hypertensive patients

Background Losartan is widely used in many clinicals settings. Its dosage is related to the genetic characteristics of CYP2C9 enzymatic activity, which metabolizes losartan to its active form E-3174, responsible for the antihypertensive effect. Aims To identify the frequency of allelic variants CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 in hypertensive patients and to compare genotypes with a healthy Chilean population. To relate polymorphisms with the losartan dosing to obtain an optimal blood pressure. Material and Methods We studied 30 patients with controlled essential hypertension using losartan with normal liver function, and 202 healthy people. Peripheral blood DNA genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction to identify the polymorphisms. Allelic and genotypic frequencies were compared. Results In hypertensive patients, allelic frequencies were 0.85 (CYP2C9*1), 0.05 (CYP2C9*2) and 0.1 (CYP2C9*3). Genotypic frequencies were 73.3% (CYP2C9*1/*1), 6.7% (CYP2C9*1/*2), 16.7% (CYP2C9*1/*3) and 3.3% (CYP2C9*2/3); observing a significantly higher frequency of the allele CYP2C9*3 (p=0.041) and CYP2C9*1/*3 genotype (p=0.04). A non-significant tendency to need a larger dose of losartan was observed with the CYP2C9 * 3 allele, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.46 (95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.01-18.64). The same tendency was observed with the need to use losartan twice a day, obtaining an OR of 5.88 (CI 0.54 -62.14). Conclusions There could be a relationship between the presence of CYP2C9 polymorphisms and the pathogenesis of hypertension. The presence of CYP2C9*3 is associated with the need for higher doses of losartan, possibly due to a decrease in the conversion of losartan to E-3174.

Abstract Introduction: CYP2C9 metabolizes approximately 15% of the prescribed drugs. Its gene has alleles whose frequencies differ between ethnic groups and populations. The alleles CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 account for an enzyme with decreased activity and their frequencies have not been determined in the Peruvian mestizo population. Objective: To characterize the frequencies of the allelic variants *2 (rs1799853) and *3 (rs1057910) of CYP2C9 gen in the Peruvian mestizo population from Lima, Tacna y Junín. Materials and methods: We conducted an observational, prospective cross-sectional study with non-probabilistic, by convenience, and incidental sampling. We included 218 subjects according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, all of whom had signed the informed consent. We obtained the genomic DNA from oral mucosa swab. For the detection of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 genotypes, we used real-time-polymerase chain reaction with TaqMan® probes. Results: The genotyping revealed that CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 variants have low frequencies (0.046 and 0.062, respectively). The frequency of intermediate metabolizers was 15.13% (CYP2C9*1/*2: 5.96%; CYP2C9*1/*3: 9.17%) and that of slow metabolizers was 3.22% (CYP2C9*2/*2: 1.38%; CYP2C9*3/*3: 1.38%; CYP2C9*2/*3: 0.46%). Conclusions: It was possible to determine the genotypic and allelic frequencies for the variants *2 and *3 of the CYP2C9 gene in a non-probabilistic sample of the Peruvian mestizo population. The frequencies obtained (0.046 and 0.062, respectively) corresponded to those expected for a South American mestizo population with Amerindian, European, African and Asian ancestry.

Correlation between CYP2C9, APOE gene polymorphisms and stable warfarin and model prediction dose / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective    To investigate the effect of CYP2C9 and APOE on the dose of stable warfarin and model prediction in Hainan population. Methods    From August 2016 to July 2018, 368 patients who required heart valve replacement and agreed to take warfarin anticoagulation at the second department of cardiothoracic surgery in our hospital were enrolled, including 152 males aged 48.5–70.5 (60.03±10.18) years and 216 females aged 43.5–65.6 (54.24±11.35) years. CYP2C9 and APOE were amplified by polymerase chain reaction. The gene fragment was sequenced by the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) site. The patients' age, sex, weight, history of smoking and drinking, and the dose of stable warfarin were recorded. Regression analysis of these clinical data was made to construct a dose prediction model. Results    Among 368 patients, CYP2C9 genotype test results showed 301 patients (81.8%) with *1*1 genotype, and 67 patients (18.2%) with *1*3 type. For different CYP2C9 genotype patients, the difference was statistically significant in the dose of stable warfarin (P<0.05). The results of APOE genotype showed 93 patients (25.3%) with E2 genotype, 221 patients (60.1%) with E3 genotype, and 54 patients (14.7%) with E4 genotype; the dose of stable   warfarin in patients with different APOE genotypes was statistically significant (P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that patients' age, body weight, and CYP2C9 and APOE genotypes were correlated with the dose of stable warfarin. The correlation coefficient R2 was 0.572, and the prediction model was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion    CYP2C9 and APOE gene polymorphisms exist in Hainan population. There is significant difference in the dose of stable warfarin among different genotypes of patients. The model to predict stable warfarin can partly explain the difference of warfarin among different patients.

Influência do genótipo do citocromo P450 (CYP2C9) na eficácia clínica do tenoxicam após cirurgias de terceiros molares inferiores / Influence of cytochrome P450 (CYP2C9) genotype on clinical efficacy of tenoxicam after lower third molars surgeries

Atualmente, com os avanços da Farmacogenética, estudos estão demonstrando que a resposta individual de medicamentos pode ser diretamente afetada pela alteração da farmacocinética induzida pela genética de cada paciente, e isto pode induzir à ausência, redução, alteração ou aumento da atividade enzimática associada. Esse fato pode modificar a eficácia clínica de determinados medicamentos e, nos casos de anti-inflamatórios não esteroidais (AINEs), alterar sua capacidade de lidar com a dor e até aumentar a frequência e a gravidade dos efeitos adversos. Este estudo teve como objetivo genotipar e fenotipar o gene CYP2C9 em 89 pacientes saudáveis submetidos à cirurgia de terceiro molar inferior, sob medicação de 20 mg de tenoxicam por dia durante 4 dias, comparando a influência do gene na dor pós-operatória, edema, trismo, quantidade de medicamentos de socorro consumidos pelos pacientes, avaliação global e satisfação do paciente em relação à ingestão do medicamento. Trata-se de um ensaio clínico randomizado, desenvolvido no Departamento de Cirurgia e Traumatologia Bucomaxilofacial da Faculdade de Odontologia de Araçatuba (FOA/UNESP) e na Disciplina de Farmacologia do Departamento Ciências Biológicas da Faculdade de Odontologia de Bauru (FOB/USP). Foi realizado o sequenciamento genético dos participantes do estudo, a fim de verificar polimorfismos do gene CYP2C9, e estes dados foram cruzados com as características pós-operatórias acima mencionadas. Oitenta e nove participantes foram selecionados: 64 (74%) foram incluídos no grupo "Metabolizadores Normais" (CYP2C9 * 1 / * 1) e 25 participantes no grupo "Metabolizadores Intermediários/Lentos" (CYP2C9 * 1 / * 2, * 1 / * 3 e CYP2C9 * 2 / * 3, * 3 / * 3). Não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significantes em todos os parâmetros avaliados. Em relação à dor, apesar dos dois grupos referirem baixos níveis de dor durante o pós-operatório, o grupo "Metabolizadores Normais" apresentou mais dor (p<0,05) nos períodos de 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 48 e 72 horas de pós-operatório, quando comparado ao ponto de tempo "zero", diferente do grupo "Metabolizadores Intermediários/Lentos" que relatou dor significativa apenas em 6 horas de pós-operatório, quando comparados com o tempo "zero". Na prática clínica, isso significa que indivíduos com atividade anormal do CYP2C9 (metabolizadores intermediários e lentos) apresentam uma exposição aumentada ao tenoxicam e provavelmente mostram níveis mais baixos de dor, mas também mostram provavelmente um risco maior de efeitos colaterais, que incluem sangramento gastrointestinal, distúrbios hemorrágicos e cardiovasculares, sendo provavelmente necessário que a dose habitual do medicamento seja revisada(AU)

One of the most accepted pharmacological protocols on third molar extraction surgeries involves the use of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as tenoxicam. Many studies present that the individual drug response could be directly affected by genetics induced pharmacokinetics alteration. Our study aimed to genotype and phenotype CYP2C9 gene in 89 health patients that were submitted to wisdom teeth surgical removal under medication of tenoxicam, comparing the gene influence on postoperative pain, edema, trismus, amount of rescue medication consumed, global evaluation and patient satisfaction regarding the medication. CYP2C9 gene was screened to evaluate polymorphisms and the genetic characteristics were crossed to aforementioned postoperative findings on a randomized clinical trial. 89 volunteers were splitted in two groups: 64 (74%) Normal Metabolizers (NM) group and 25 (26%) Intermediate/Slow Metabolizers (ISM) group. There were not found statistically significant difference between groups. The NM group referred more pain (p<0,05) at 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 48 and 72 postoperative hours time points when compared to time zero. In clinical practice it means that individuals with CYP2C9 abnormal activity (ISM) presented an augmented exposition to tenoxicam and referred lower pain levels, but also, they were probably more susceptible to adverse effects(AU)

Effect of iguratimod on diclofenac metabolism by CYP2C9 in rats and human recombinant CYP2C9 yeast cells

Iguratimod (IGU, also known as T-614), a novel disease modifying antirheumatic drug intended to cure patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of IGU on the pharmacokinetics of CYP2C9 probe drug diclofenac and its metabolite 4′-hydroxy diclofenac in vivo and in vitro. In in vivo experiments, 24 rats were randomly assigned to three groups consisting of the control group (Normal saline), low dose IGU group (10 mg/kg) and high dose IGU group (30 mg/kg). Blood samples were collected from orbital sinuses vein before 1 hour and serial times of giving diclofenac (15 mg/kg) to all the rats. Plasma concentration of diclofenac and its metabolite 4´-hydroxy diclofenac were assayed by high performance liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed by Winnonlin 6.4 pharmacokinetic software. Moreover, in vitro studies were performed in recombinant human CYP2C9 yeast cell system. IGU at low dose showed no significant differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters of diclofenac and 4-hydroxy diclofenac in vivo when compared with control group (p>0.005). However, at the high dose of IGU, the pharmacokinetic parameters of 4´-hydroxy metabolite of diclofenac increase in half-life (T1/2) and mean area under the curve (AUC0→24), while a decrease in mean clearance (CL, mL/h/kg) and volume of distribution Vz (mL/kg). In addition, in in vitro study, high doses of IGU reduces the metabolism rate of diclofenac. IGU at high dose significantly increase the pharmacokinetics parameters of 4´-hydroxy diclofenac in rats. Additionally, it also showed the potent inhibitory effect on diclofenac metabolism in recombinant human CYP2C9 yeast cells.

Effects of Coix-seed Reactive Derivatives (CRD) on Cytochrome P450 Isoforms CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP2C9 In Vitro / 日本補完代替医療学会誌

CRD, a Coix-seed Reactive Derivatives, has a novel mechanism in the treatment of various diseases. In the present study, a fluorometric-based high throughput method using cytochrome P450 (CYP)screening kit was adopted to evaluate in vitro inhibition potential of CRD (CRD 1 and CRD 2) on CYP isoenzymes by calculating remaining enzyme activities and inhibitory potential (IC50 values) using the determined values of fluorescence intensity. IC50　of CRD 1 and CRD 2 were as follows: CYP3A4; >500 µg/ml, 490 µg/ml, CYP2D6; >500 µg/ml，>500 µg/ml，CYP2C9; >500 µg/ml，339 µg/ml, respectively. The result showed that CRD exhibited little activity in the inhibition of CYP3A4, CYP2D6 and CYP2C9.

Associations of polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP2D6 and CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and labetalol therapy / 中华围产医学杂志

Objective To explore the associations of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and the efficacy of labetalol therapy. Methods Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia (experimental group) and 103 healthy gravidas (control group) were recruited from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures in gravidas with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose (100 mg, one dose per eight hours) and effectively controlled the blood pressures, it would be considered to be valid (n=75), otherwise it would be viewed as an invalid treatment. Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686 and rs3892097) in the gravidas were analyzed by TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the experimental and control groups, and the valid and invalid labetalol treatment groups. Chi-square test, analysis of variance and LSD test were used as statistical methods. Results The gravidas in both experimental and control groups were AA genotype in CYP2C9 gene rs1057910, TT genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs35742686 and CC genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs3892097. Frequencies of CC and CT genotypes in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103);56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2=6.707], and higher C allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 was also observed in the experimental group [46.2% (97/210) vs 35.9% (74/206), χ2=4.529] (all P0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5±2.1) vs (29.5±1.8) and (29.8±2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2±9.3) vs (20.3±10.4) and (22.5±7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 hours urine protein (LSD test, all P<0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 in invalid labetalol treatment group was higher than that in valid labetalol treatment group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2=8.351, P=0.004]. Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of early-onset severe pre-eclampsia.

Effects of aqueous extract of Polygoni Multiflori Radix and its main constituents on expression of mRNA of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 in human liver L02 cells / 中草药

Objective To analyze the main chemical constituents and their contents in aqueous extract of Polygoni Multiflori Radix (PMR, root of Polygonum multiflorum), and to elucidate the effects of aqueous extract of PMR and its main constituents on the expression of the mRNA of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 in human liver L02 cells. Methods The main chemical constituents and their content in aqueous extract of PMR were determined by HPLC. The cytotoxicity of aqueous extract of PMR and its main constituents on L02 cells was determined by MTT assay. The mRNA expression of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 in L02 cells were detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Results There were four main well-separated chromatographic peaks standing for tetrahydroxy stilbene glucoside, emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside, emodin and physcion in aqueous extract of PMR. The content of thesecomponents in aqueous extract of PMR was (1.14 ± 0.03)%, (0.106 9 ± 0.001 6)%, (0.010 8 ± 0.000 9)%, (0.003 55 ± 0.000 19)%, respectively. The cytotoxicity of aqueous extract of PMR and emodin on L02 cells at 24 h was dose-dependent, and the concentration of 50% inhibition was 7.290 mg/mL and 0.082 mmol/L respectively. Tetrahydroxy stilbene glucoside, emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside and physcion did not show significant cytotoxicity on L02 cells in the experimental concentrations. Aqueous extract of PMR and emodin significantly inhibited the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 in L02 cells. Emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside inhibited the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2 and CYP2C9. Tetrahydroxy stilbene glucoside inhibited the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2 but activated the expression of mRNA of CYP2C9. Physcion inhibited the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2 and CYP2C9 in a dose-dependent manner, but inhibited the expression of mRNA of CYP2E1 in low concentration and activitated the expression of mRNA of CYP2E1 in high concentration. Conclusion The inhibition of aqueous extract of PMR on the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 in L02 cells is the combined effect of all components in it. The main four components all inhibit the expression of mRNA of CYP1A2. The anthraquinone is the main component inhibiting the expression of mRNA of CYP2C9. The free anthraquinone is the main component inhibiting the expression of mRNA of CYP2E1.

Relevance of the ancestry for the variability of the Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 polymorphisms in a multiethnic Costa Rican population / Relevancia de la ancestría para la variabilidad de polimorfismos de las enzimas metabolizadoras de fármacos CYP2C9, CYP2C19 y CYP2D6 en una población multiétnica de Costa Rica

Abstract:CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 metabolize around 40 % of drugs and their genes vary across populations. The Costa Rican population has a trihybrid ancestry and its key geographic location turns it into a suitable scenario to evaluate interethnic differences across populations. This study aims to describe the diversity of CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 polymorphisms in Costa Rican populations in the context of their ancestry. A total of 448 healthy individuals were included in the study: Bribri (n= 47), Cabécar (n= 27), Maleku (n= 16), Guaymí (n= 30), Huetar (n= 48), Chorotega (n= 41), Admixed/Mestizos from the Central Valley/Guanacaste (n= 189), and Afro-Caribbeans (n= 50) from Limón. CYP2C9 (alleles *2, *3, *6) and CYP2C19 (*2, *3, *4, *5, *17) genotypes were determined by Real-Time PCR. African, European and Native American ancestry were inferred using 87 ancestry informative markers. The frequency of the decreased activity allele CYP2C9*2 is lower in the self-reported Amerindian groups compared to the admixed population, and the highest frequencies of CYP2C19*2 (null activity) and the CYP2C19*17 (increased activity) were found in the self-reported AfroCaribbean population. Moreover, a frequency of 0.7 % CYP2C9 gPMs in the Admixed population and a variable frequency of CYP2C19 gUMs (0.0-32.6 %, more prevalent in Afro-Caribbeans) in Costa Rican populations, was found. Finally, the following alleles were positively correlated with genomic African ancestry and negatively correlated with genomic Native American ancestry: CYP2D6*5 (null activity), CYP2D6*17 (decreased activity), CYP2D6*29 (decreased activity) and CYP2C19*17 (increased activity). No correlation for CYP2C9 polymorphisms and genomic ancestry was found. Further studies assessing the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 sequence in these populations, preferentially by sequencing these genes, are warranted. Rev. Biol. Trop. 64 (3): 1067-1076. Epub 2016 September 01.

ResumenCYP2C9, CYP2C19 y CYP2D6 metabolizan aproximadamente el 40 % de los fármacos y los genes que las codifican varían en las distintas poblaciones humanas. La población costarricense posee ancestría trihíbrida y su posición geográfica estratégica la convierten en un escenario idóneo para evaluar la variabilidad interétnica en sus poblaciones multiétnicas. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo describir la diversidad de los polimorfismos CYP2C9, CYP2C19 y CYP2D6 en las poblaciones costarricenses en el contexto de su ancestría. Un total de 448 individuos sanos fueron incluidos: Bribri (n= 47), Cabécar (n= 27), Maleku (n= 16), Guaymí (n= 30), Huetar (n= 48), Chorotega (n= 41), mestizos del Valle Central y Guanacaste (n= 189) y afrocaribeños de Limón (n= 50). Los genotipos CYP2C9 (alelos *2, *3, *6) y CYP2C19 (*2, *3, *4, *5 y *17) fueron determinados mediante PCR tiempo real. Las ancestrías africana, europea y nativa americana fueron inferidas usando 87 marcadores informativos de ancestría. La frecuencia del alelo de actividad disminuida CYP2C9*2 fue menor en los grupos autodefinidos de amerindios que en la población mestiza y las frecuencias más altas de CYP2C19*2 (actividad nula) y CYP2C19*17 (actividad incrementada) se encontraron en la población autodefinida afrocaribeña. Asimismo, se encontró una frecuencia de gPMs CYP2C9 de 0.7 % en la población mestiza y una frecuencia variable de gUMs CYP2C19 (0.0 a 32.6 %, más prevalente en afrocaribeños) en las poblaciones costarricenses. Por último, los siguientes alelos fueron positivamente correlacionados con la ancestría africana y negativamente con la ancestría nativa americana: CYP2D6*5 (actividad nula), CYP2D6*17, CYP2D6*29 (ambos de actividad disminuida) y CYP2C19*17 (actividad incrementada). No se encontró correlación entre los polimorfismos CYP2C9 y la ancestría. Se requieren estudios posteriores que evalúen la secuencia de CYP2C9 y CYP2C19 en estas poblaciones, preferiblemente mediante la secuenciación de estos genes.

Assessment of Association Cytochrome Р450 Gene Polymorphism with Pathogenesis and Course of HСV in Uzbek Population.

Aims: The assessment of polymorphisms CYP2C9*2 (430С>Т; rs1799853) and CYP2E1*1B (–C9896G, rs2070676) role of the genes of cytochrome Р450 in pathogenesis of the chronic viral hepatitis C (HCV) in Uzbek population became the main aim. Place and Duration of Study: The molecular and genetic study of biomaterial was accomplished under Department of Molecular Medicine and Cellular Technologies of SRIH&BT (Scientific Research Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion), MoH RUz in the period of 2013-2016. Methodology and Study Design: Genotyping assay of polymorphism of the genes under study was accomplished by the standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Peripheral blood of 107 patients with diagnosis chronic viral hepatitis C included in the main group and 81 relatively healthy donors (test group) was used for the molecular and genetic study of CYP2Е1*1В and CYP2C9*2 polymorphisms. Results: Comparative analysis revealed differences in the distribution of allele frequencies of polymorphisms 430C > T CYP2C9 gene and gene C9896G CYP2E1 * 1B in groups of patients with chronic HCV group and population control. In the main group of patients with chronic HCV mutant allele "T » CYP2C9 gene met significantly more frequently in comparison with the control group population. Thus, the highest frequency of the mutant allele of the "T", as compared with the control group was observed in patients with moderate HCV activity. This is the lowest frequency of this genotype was observed in the subgroup of patients with liver cirrhosis. Our studies have shown that the accumulation of the mutant allele «G» CYP2E1 * 1B gene was also the case in almost all sub-groups of patients with chronic HCV. The frequency of heterozygous genotype CYP2E1*1B polymorphism in the population control group was 13.6%. It should be noted that the highest frequency component of genotype C/G was detected in the group of patients with chronic HCV with high activity. The data obtained indicate an association genotype C/G with the activation process of inflammation and fibrotic changes. Conclusion: The results showed a high frequency of mutant allele "T" polymorphism 430C > T CYP2C9 with HCV, which allows us to consider the CYP2C9 gene as a factor of a favorable outcome of chronic hepatitis C. The association between the expression of CYP2E1 * 1B and progression of the disease with activation fibrosis-formation in individuals of Uzbek population is an important factor in the development of personalized therapy.

Effect of Shenmai Iniection on isoforms of cytochrome P450 enzymes in rats / 中草药

Objective: To investigate the effects of Shenmai Injection (SMI) on activities of six isoforms of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) by Cocktail probe drugs in rats. Methods: SD rats were randomly divided into SM group and blank control group, which were given SMI (10 mL/kg) or normal saline for 7 d. Phenacetin, bupropion, tolbutamide, omeprazole, metoprolol, and midazolam were used as probe drugs for CYP1A2, CYP2B1, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4. The UPLC-MS/MS method was used to determine the concentration of probe drugs in rat plasma, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by DAS3.0. Results: Compared with the blank control group, AUC0~∞, CL, and Cmax of phenacetin, bupropion, and omeprazole were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). However, no significant difference of plasma concentration and pharmacokinetics for tolbutamide, metoprolol, and midazolam was shown between SMI group and the blank control group. Conclusion: SMI can inhibit CYPlA2, CYP2B1, and CYP2C19 activities significantly, but has no effect on the activities of CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4.
