CYP2C8.3

BACKGROUND: CYP2C8 is responsible for the metabolism of 5% of clinically prescribed drugs, including antimalarials, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory drugs. Genetic variability is an important factor that influences CYP2C8 activity and modulates the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of its substrates. RESULTS: We profiled the genetic landscape of CYP2C8 variability using data from 96 original studies and data repositories that included a total of 33,185 unrelated participants across 44 countries and 43 ethnic groups...

BACKGROUND: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) comprises a group of phase-I metabolizing enzymes that are important in xenobiotics metabolism. Genetic polymorphism of CYPs has been comprehensively studied for their association with a range of diseases. In this study, we assessed single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of CYP1A, CYP1B, CYP2B, and CYP2C and their role in gastrointestinal (GI) cancer susceptibility in the rural population of Maharashtra. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this hospital-based case-control study, the association of polymorphism of CYP genes was studied by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method...

The human lymphoblastoid cell line TK6 stands out as the most widely employed human cell line in genotoxicity testing, as recommended by various testing guidelines for in vitro assessments. Nevertheless, like many testing cell lines, TK6 lacks functional phase I drug-metabolizing enzymes crucial for chemical genotoxicity evaluations. This protocol introduces a lentivirus-based methodology for establishing a panel of TK6-derived cell lines, each expressing one of 14 cytochrome P450s (CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7)...

BACKGROUND: There are evidence indicating that some metabolites of arachidonic acid produced by cytochromes P450 (CYP) and epoxide hydroxylase (EPHX2), such as hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs), epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) or dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids (DHETEs), play an important role in blood pressure regulation and they could contribute to the development of hypertension (HT) and kidney damage. Therefore, the main aim of the study was to evaluate whether the genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2J2, CYP4F2, CYP4F11 and EPHX2, responsible for the formation of HETEs, EETs and DHETEs, are related to the progression of impaired renal function in a group of patients with hypertension...

BACKGROUND: Last few decades, multiple studies all over the world revealed the association of genetic polymorphism in cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes with risk of developing different type of cancers, but contradictory outcomes were evidenced in case of cervical cancer (CC) risk. Therefore, the discrepancies in earlier reports influenced us to evaluate the association of CYP1A1*2A rs4646903, CYP1B1*3 rs1056836, CYP2C8*2 rs11572103, CYP2C9*2 rs1799853, CYP2C9*3 rs1057910, and CYP2C19*2 rs4244285 polymorphisms and CC susceptibility in the women of rural population of Maharashtra...

PURPOSE: Midostaurin, approved for treating FLT-3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia and advanced systemic mastocytosis, is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 to two major metabolites, and may inhibit and/or induce CYP3A, CYP2B6, and CYP2C8. Two studies investigated the impact of midostaurin on CYP substrate drugs and oral contraceptives in healthy participants. METHODS: Using sentinel dosing for participants' safety, the effects of midostaurin at steady state following 25-day (Study 1) or 24-day (Study 2) dosing with 50 mg twice daily were evaluated on CYP substrates, midazolam (CYP3A4), bupropion (CYP2B6), and pioglitazone (CYP2C8) in Study 1; and monophasic oral contraceptives (containing ethinylestradiol [EES] and levonorgestrel [LVG]) in Study 2...

RATIONALE: Sinomenine, a major bioactive compound isolated from Sinomenium acutum, has been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other cardio-cerebrovacular diseases. However, the metabolism of this drug has not been fully investigated. The current work was carried out to investigate the in vitro metabolism of sinomenine in liver microsomes. METHODS: The metabolites were generated by incubating sinomenine (3 μM) with the liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH at 37°C...

Aschantin, a tetrahydrofurofuran lignan with a 1,3-benzodioxole group derived from Flos Magnoliae, exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, and antimicrobial activities. This study compared the metabolic profiles of aschantin in human, dog, mouse, and rat hepatocytes using liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry. The hepatic extraction ratio of aschantin among the four species was 0.46-0.77, suggesting that it undergoes a moderate-to-extensive degree of hepatic metabolism. Hepatocyte incubation of aschantin produced 4 phase 1 metabolites, including aschantin catechol (M1), O-desmethylaschantin (M2 and M3), and hydroxyaschantin (M4), and 14 phase 2 metabolites, including O-methyl-M1 (M5 and M6) via catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT), six glucuronides of M1, M2, M3, M5, and M6, and six sulfates of M1, M2, M3, M5, and M6...

OBJECTIVES: The study aims to investigate the impact of gene polymorphisms on blood hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) concentrations in patients with SLE and provide guidelines for individualised care. METHODS: 489 Chinese patients with SLE taking HCQ for more than 3 months were collected in this study. The blood HCQ, desethylhydroxychloroquine (DHCQ) and desethylchloroquine concentrations were measured. The optimal blood concentration of HCQ was determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis...

A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed to simulate plasma concentrations of tucatinib (Tukysa®) after single-dose or multiple-dose administration of 300 mg BID orally. This PBPK model was subsequently applied to support evaluation of DDI risk as a perpetrator resulting from tucatinib inhibition of CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, P-gp, or MATE1/2-K. The PBPK model was also applied to support evaluation of DDI risk as a victim resulting from co-administration with CYP3A4 or CYP2C8 inhibitors, or a CYP3A4 inducer...

Expression of CYP3A5 protein is a basal and acquired resistance mechanism of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells conferring protection against the CYP3A and CYP2C8 substrate paclitaxel through metabolic degradation. Inhibition of CYP3A isozymes restores the cells sensitivity to paclitaxel. The combination of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel is an established regimen for the treatment of metastasized or locally advanced inoperable pancreatic cancer. Cobicistat is a CYP3A inhibitor developed for the pharmacoenhancement of protease inhibitors...

Finerenone, a selective and nonsteroidal antagonist of the mineralocorticoid receptor, has received regulatory approval with the indication of cardiorenal protection in patients with chronic kidney disease associated with type 2 diabetes. It is rapidly and completely absorbed and undergoes first-pass metabolism in the gut wall and liver resulting in a bioavailability of 43.5%. Finerenone can be taken with or without food. The pharmacokinetics of finerenone are linear and its half-life is 2 to 3 h in the dose range of up to 20 mg...

Vortioxetine is a novel anti-major depression disorder drug with a high safety profile compared with other similar drugs. However, little research has been done on drug-drug interactions (DDI) about vortioxetine. In this paper, the inhibitory effect of vortioxetine on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) and the type of inhibitory mechanism were investigated in human and rat liver microsomes. We set up an in vitro incubation system of 200 μL to measure the metabolism of probe substrates at the present of vortioxetine at 37°C...

Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch. ex DC, one of the three pharmacopeial species of licorice and widely used in dietary supplements, can inhibit certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Thereby, G. uralensis preparations have the potential to cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions when consumed along with prescription medicines. One compound (1.34 mg dry weight) responsible for inhibiting CYP2B6, CYP2C8, and CYP2C9 was isolated using bioactivity-guided fractionation from 250 g dried roots, stolons, and rhizomes...

A novel haplotype composed of two non-coding variants, CYP2C18 NM_000772.3:c.*31T (rs2860840) and NM_000772.2:c.819+2182G (rs11188059), referred to as "CYP2C:TG", was recently associated with ultrarapid metabolism of various CYP2C19 substrates. As the underlying mechanism and clinical relevance of this effect remain uncertain, we analyzed existing in vivo and in vitro data to determine the magnitude of the CYP2C:TG haplotype effect. We assessed variability in pharmacokinetics of CYP2C19 substrates, including citalopram, sertraline, voriconazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole and rabeprazole in 222 healthy volunteers receiving one of these six drugs...

Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) widely used to alleviate pain and inflammation. Although it is generally considered safe, common adverse drug reactions of ibuprofen include stomach pain, nausea, and heartburn. It can also cause gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, especially in individuals with a history of GI ulcers or bleeding disorders. Ibuprofen is predominantly metabolized by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes CYP2C9 and CYP2C8. Individuals carrying the CYP2C9 ∗ 3 or CYP2C8 ∗ 3 non-functional alleles have reduced enzyme activities resulting in elevated ibuprofen plasma concentrations and half-life...

Following the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that, for the cell migration assay experiments shown in Fig. 5 on p. 731, the 'TNF‑α' data panels in Fig. 5A and C appeared to be matching, where experiments performed under different conditions were intended to have been displayed. After having re‑examined their original data, the authors have realized that the data files were mislabelled, although they were able to retrieve the correct data for Fig...

BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS), including whole genome sequencing (WGS) and whole exome sequencing (WES), is increasingly being used for clinic care. While NGS data have the potential to be repurposed to support clinical pharmacogenomics (PGx), current computational approaches have not been widely validated using clinical data. In this study, we assessed the accuracy of the Aldy computational method to extract PGx genotypes from WGS and WES data for 14 and 13 major pharmacogenes, respectively...

AIM: This study evaluated the effects of SHR0302 on the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome P450 (CYP) probe substrates. METHODS: We performed a single-center, open-label, three-period drug-drug interaction (DDI) study in 24 healthy subjects (NCT05392127). Subjects received a single oral dose of 5 mg warfarin (CYP2C9), 20 mg omeprazole (CYP2C19), and 15 mg midazolam (CYP3A4) on day 1, 8, and 22, and received 0.5 mg repaglinide (CYP2C8) on day 7, 14, and 28. Multiple oral doses of 8 mg SHR0302 were administered once daily from day 8 to day 28...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease with heterogeneous causes that can lead to right ventricular (RV) failure and death if left untreated. There are currently 10 medications representative of five unique pharmacologic classes that are approved for treatment. These have led to significant improvements in overall clinical outcome. However, substantial variability in dosing requirements and treatment response is evident, leading to suboptimal outcome for many patients. Furthermore, dosing is empiric and iterative and can lead to delays in meeting treatment goals and burdensome adverse effects...
