To further investigate the association between Parkinson's disease (PD) and genetic polymorphism of the CYP2D6 gene, a mutant allele (CVP2D6J) frequently observed in the Japanese population and related to EM/PM polymorphism (phenotypically, individuals are either extensive metabolizers [EM] or poor metabolizers [PM] of debrisoquine) was investigated. The CYP2D6J gene with a nucleotide substitution from C to T at position 188 (the HphI site in exon 1), which reduces CYP2D6 enzyme activity, was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and by digestion with HphI. No significant relationship was observed between PD patients and controls for this mutation. This suggests that the EM/PM polymorphism of CYP2D6 contributes little to the pathogenesis of PD. To further study the molecular basis for the relationship between PD and CYP2D6, the heterogeneity of CYP2D6 was investigated by combined genotype analysis of the two mutant CYP2D6 genes (ie, CYP2D6J, the HphI site mutation in exon 1, and CYP2D6L, the HhaI site mutation in exon 6). Although some characteristic patterns of the combined genotypes were observed in both PD patients and controls, a strong association between the heterogeneity of the CYP2D6 gene and PD was not shown by combined genotype analysis. 相似文献

We have cloned and characterized the ACO2 gene on human chromosome 22q13, which encodes the essential iron-dependent metabolic enzyme mitochondrial aconitase. We determined that the ACO2 gene comprises 18 translated exons distributed over approximately 35 kilobasepairs (kbp) of DNA. We have shown that the ACO2 mRNA is 2.7kb in length and is expressed ubiquitously, and we can detect multiple isoforms of the ACO2 protein. As others had reported the existence of biochemically active electrophoretic variants of mitochondrial aconitase, we wished to find common ACO2 gene allozymes, functional polymorphisms that might be associated with susceptibility to human genetic diseases. We looked for ACO2 allozymes by DNA sequencing and genotyping in a population of 217 subjects, many of which had idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). We studied patients with IPD because this movement disorder is thought to arise from defects in neuronal iron and energy metabolism, two properties with which aconitase is involved. Furthermore, reports of associations between alleles of the CYP2D6 locus (nearby on 22q13) and IPD, although inconsistent, indicated that an IPD susceptibility locus might be in strong linkage disequilibrium with CYP2D6. We found three functionally silent single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present in transcribed sequences that exist in similar frequencies in IPD patients and healthy controls. These ACO2 SNPs are in linkage disequilibrium with each other, providing evidence for distinct ACO2 haplotypes. We have, as yet, not detected polymorphisms that would lead to ACO2 allozymes, nor have we observed differences in ACO2 isoform prevalence or distribution in our population of IPD patients and controls. We conclude it is unlikely that polymorphism in the ACO2 gene or post-translational modification of the enzyme predispose to IPD. 相似文献

To detect mutations in the cytochrome P450 CYP2D6 gene (CYP2D6), we developed a strategy based on single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of the gene amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The efficiency of the method was evaluated by analysing DNA samples from extensive metabolizers (EM) and poor metabolizers (PM) of debrisoquine. Haplotypes, alleles and mutations of CYP2D6 had previously been characterized in each individual using PCR assays, Xba I restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing. PCR-SSCP results were in complete agreement with those obtained using established methods. All previously characterized mutations were associated with particular shifts in the electrophoretic mobility of DNA fragments allowing their identification. We further tested the efficiency of PCR-SSCP for detecting new CYP2D6 mutations. DNA from a PM subject presumed to carry an unknown non-functional mutant allele of CYP2D6 was amplified and bands with aberrant migration patterns were observed on SSCP gels. Sequence analysis of the corresponding DNA fragments revealed the causative mutations. In this way, a novel non-functional allele of the gene, carrying three previously reported mutations and a new mutation in the third exon which results in a premature termination codon, was characterized. Finally, CYP2D6 SSCP analysis was performed on DNA amplified with fluorescent primers and an automated DNA sequencer was used for SSCP analysis of products. We conclude that the PCR-SSCP approach is a powerful method of identifying simultaneously known and new mutations of the CYP2D6 gene. 相似文献

Parkinson's disease (PD) is thought to develop as a result of interactions between genetic susceptibility factors and environmental exposures. One candidate gene is CYP2D6, which codes for the debrisoquine 4-hydroxylase cytochrome P450. Impairment of debrisoquine 4-hydroxylase activity has been associated with an increased risk of PD in patients with younger age at disease onset. Genotyping studies in patients with an older age at onset have reported modest increases in risk associated with the CYP2D6 B and A alleles; however, the risk for young-onset PD has not been adequately evaluated. We designed a case-control study to investigate the role of nonfunctional CYP2D6 allelic risk factors for young-onset PD in a sizable patient population and compared the distributions of CYP2D6 genotypes between young-onset ( < or = 51 years) PD patients (n = 108) and controls (n = 236). In contrast with the results from genotyping studies conducted among patients with an older age at onset, there were no significant differences in CYP2D6 allelic frequencies between young-onset PD cases and controls. The frequency of the B allele was slightly lower in the young-onset PD cases than in the controls (0.14 versus 0.20) (X2 = 2.66, p = 0.10). The presence of one or more B alleles was not associated with an increased risk of young-onset PD (odds ratio 0.58; 95% CI 0.33 to 1.00), nor was the presence of one or more nonfunctional alleles (i.e., A, B, D, and D2) (odds ratio 0.68; 95% CI 0.41 to 1.13). This study suggests that the young-onset PD population may differ from the older-onset population with respect to risk factors. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolizes many important drugs. CYP2D6 activity ranges from complete deficiency to ultrafast metabolism, depending on at least 16 different known alleles. Their frequencies were determined in 589 unrelated German volunteers and correlated with enzyme activity measured by phenotyping with dextromethorphan or debrisoquine. For genotyping, nested PCR-RFLP tests from a PCR amplificate of the entire CYP2D6 gene were developed. The frequency of the CYP2D6*1 allele coding for extensive metabolizer (EM) phenotype was .364. The alleles coding for slightly (CYP2D6*2) or moderately (*9 and *10) reduced activity (intermediate metabolizer phenotype [IM]) showed frequencies of .324, .018, and .015, respectively. By use of novel PCR tests for discrimination, CYP2D6 gene duplication alleles were found with frequencies of .005 (*1x2), .013 (*2x2), and .001 (*4x2). Frequencies of alleles with complete deficiency (poor metabolizer phenotype [PM]) were .207 (*4), .020 (*3 and *5), .009 (*6), and .001 (*7, *15, and *16). The defective CYP2D6 alleles *8, *11, *12, *13, and *14 were not found. All 41 PMs (7.0%) in this sample were explained by five mutations detected by four PCR-RFLP tests, which may suffice, together with the gene duplication test, for clinical prediction of CYP2D6 capacity. Three novel variants of known CYP2D6 alleles were discovered: *1C (T1957C), *2B (additional C2558T), and *4E (additional C2938T). Analysis of variance showed significant differences in enzymatic activity measured by the dextromethorphan metabolic ratio (MR) between carriers of EM/PM (mean MR = .006) and IM/PM (mean MR = .014) alleles and between carriers of one (mean MR = .009) and two (mean MR = .003) functional alleles. The results of this study provide a solid basis for prediction of CYP2D6 capacity, as required in drug research and routine drug treatment. 相似文献

A genetic polymorphism in the metabolism of the anticonvulsant drug S-mephenytoin has been attributed to defective CYP2C19 alleles. This genetic polymorphism displays large interracial differences with the poor metabolizer (PM) phenotype representing 2-5% of Caucasian and 13-23% of Oriental populations. In the present study, we identified two new mutations in CYP2C19 in a single Swiss Caucasian PM outlier (JOB 1) whose apparent genotype (CYP2C19*1/CYP2C19*2) did not agree with his PM phenotype. These mutations consisted of a single base pair mutation (G395A) in exon 3 resulting in an Arg132-->Gln coding change and a (G276C) mutation in exon 2 resulting in a coding change Glu92-->Asp. However, the G276C mutation and the G395A mutation resided on separate alleles. Genotyping tests of a family study of JOB1 showed that the exon 2 change occurred on the CYP2C19*2 allele, which also contained the known splice mutation in exon 5 (this variant is termed CYP2C19*2B to distinguish it from the original splice variant now termed CYP2C19*2A). The exon 3 mutation resided on a separate allele (termed CYP2C19*6). In all other respects this allele was identical to one of two wild-type alleles, CYP2C19*1B. The incidence of CYP2C19*6 in a European Caucasian population phenotyped for mephenytoin metabolism was 0/344 (99% confidence limits of 0 to 0.9%). Seven of 46 Caucasian CYP2C19*2 alleles were CYP2C19*2B(15%) and 85% were CYP2C19*2A. The Arg132Gln mutation was produced by site-directed mutatgenesis and the recombinant protein expressed in a bacterial cDNA expression system. Recombinant CYP2C19 6 had negligible catalytic activity toward S-mephenytoin compared with CYP2C19 1B, which is consistent with the conclusion that CYP2C19*6 represents a PM allele. Thus, the new CYP2C19*6 allele contributes to the PM phenotype in Caucasians. 相似文献

An epidemiological study of the environmental and genetic factors as well as the possible interplay between them was conducted among 215 patients with Parkinson's disease and 313 controls in a Chinese population in Hong Kong. In univariate analysis, a regular tea drinking habit was found to be a protective factor, which had not been reported before. Smoking (a protective factor), family history, duration of pesticide exposure (in years) in farming and pesticide exposure during farming in women (both risk factors) have been reported previously. In multivariate analysis, current smoking reached borderline significance at the 5% level and the variables, years exposed to pesticides and family history were significant at the 10% level. By contrast with the common occurrence of polymorphism of the CYP2D6 gene (a gene involved with xenobiotic metabolism) in white people, it is very rare in China and is not thought to be a significant factor contributing to Parkinson's disease in Chinese people. 相似文献

CYP2D6 genotyping (CYP2D6*3, CYP2D6*4, CYP2D6*5, CYP2D6*13, CYP2D6*16 alleles and gene duplications) was previously performed on 1053 Caucasian and African-American lung cancer cases and control individuals and no significant difference in allele frequencies between cases and control individuals detected. We have carried out additional genotyping (CYP2D6*6, CYP2D6*7, CYP2D6*8, CYP2D6*9, CYP2D6*10, CYP2D6*17 alleles) and debrisoquine phenotyping on subgroups from this study to assess phenotype-genotype relationships. African-Americans showed significant differences from Caucasians with respect to frequency of defective CYP2D6 alleles, particularly CYP2D6*4 and CYP2D6*5. The CYP2D6*17 allele occurred at a frequency of 0.26 among 87 African-Americans and appeared to explain higher average metabolic ratios among African-Americans compared with Caucasians. CYP2D6*6, CYP2D6*8, CYP2D6*9 and CYP2D6*10 were rare in both ethnic groups but explained approximately 40% of higher than expected metabolic ratios among extensive metabolizers. Among individuals phenotyped with debrisoquine, 32 out of 359 were in the poor metabolizer range with 24 of these (75%) also showing two defective CYP2D6 alleles. Additional single strand conformational polymorphism analysis screening of samples showing large phenotype-genotype discrepancies resulted in the detection of three novel polymorphisms. If subjects taking potentially interfering drugs were excluded, this additional screening enabled the positive identification of 88% of phenotypic poor metabolizers by genotyping. This sensitivity was comparable with that of phenotyping, which identified 90% of those with two defective alleles as poor metabolizers. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) involved in the two major pathways of imipramine (IMI) was reappraised using human liver microsomes phenotyped for S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation in vitro and 11 recombinant human CYP isoforms. Individual Eadie-Hoffstee plots for IMI N-demethylation and 2-hydroxylation showed a monophasic profile in microsomes obtained from three putative S-mephenytoin poor metabolizer (PM) livers, whereas the plots gave a biphasic relationship (except for one case in 2-hydroxylation) in those from the three extensive metabolizer (EM) livers. Effects of CYP-selective inhibitor/substrate probes on the two metabolic reactions were examined at the two IMI concentrations (2 and 400 microM) with microsomes obtained from the two PM and three EM livers. S-mephenytoin inhibited IMI N-demethylation by 50% at the low concentration in microsomes from the EM livers with no discernible effect on this pathway in those from the PM livers. Furafylline inhibited the N-demethylation by about 60% at the low and high substrate concentrations in microsomes from both the EM and PM livers. Quinidine abolished the 2-hydroxylation at the low and high concentrations in microsomes from both the EM and the PM livers. Among the recombinant human CYPs, CYP2C19, 2C18, 2D6, 1A2, 3A4 and 2B6 in rank order catalyzed the N-demethylation, whereas CYP2D6, 2C19, 1A2, 2C18 and 3A4 catalyzed the 2-hydroxylation. The Km values obtained from recombinant CYP2C19 and 1A2 approximated those of the high- and low-affinity components from human liver microsomes for IMI N-demethylation, respectively. For IMI 2-hydroxylation, the respective Km values obtained from recombinant CYP2D6 and 2C19 were close to those of the high- and low-affinity components from human liver microsomes. Our human liver microsomal study using the near-therapeutic IMI concentration (2 microM) suggests that 1) CYP2C19 and 1A2 are involved in the N-demethylation and the 2-hydroxylation is mediated exclusively by CYP2D6 and partially by CYP2C19 in the EM livers, and 2) CYP1A2 and 2D6 play a major role in IMI N-demethylation and 2-hydroxylation, respectively, in the PM livers. Our recombinant human CYP isoform study, in general, supports this conclusion. 相似文献

The mutant of CYP2D6*3 allele with A2637 deletion in exon 5 and the mutant of CYP2D6*4 allele G1934-->A, splice site defect are among the most common polymorphic alleles of CYP2D6 gene, resulting in a decreased or no activity of CYP isoenzyme. In this study, a reliable polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method for identification of CYP2D6*3 and CYP2D6*4 alleles was used to investigate the genotype and phenotype prevalence in the groups of normal controls, and of cirrhosis and cancer patients. The results showed none of 36 controls genotyped for 2D6*3 and 2D6*4 allele to have the 2D6*3 allele with frameshift mutation in exon 5, while 33% (n=12) were found to bear the 2D6*4 allele with G to A mutation at the intron 3-exon 4 junction. In breast cancer patients (n=35) genotyped for 2D6*3 and 2D6*4 alleles, none with 2D6*3 allele was found either, but 60% (n=18) were found to bear the 2D6*4 allele. In patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer, there was only one subject with 2D6*3 allele and he was heterozygous. Among them, as many as ten (40%) patients were found to bear 2D6*4 allele. In the cirrhosis group, none of the patients was found to have the 2D6*3 allele, while the CYP2D6*4 allele was found in 23% (n=6) patients. The phenotype predicted according to the genotype was as follows: in the control group, 3% of individuals were identified as poor metabolizers, 70% as extensive metabolizers, and 27% as heterozygote extensive metabolizers. In the group of breast cancer, 7% of the patients were identified as poor metabolizer, 57% as extensive metabolizer and 36% as phenotype. In squamous cell cancer and cirrhosis patients, the incidence of poor metabolizer was zero, and of heterozygotes extensive metabolizer 42% and 31%, respectively. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: CYP2D6 polymorphism of clinical relevance occurs with variable frequency in different ethnic groups. Since this polymorphism has not been studied in a North Indian population, the present study was undertaken. METHODS: One hundred healthy unrelated North Indian subjects received 30 mg dextromethorphan (DM) orally at bed-time. The amounts of DM and its metabolite, dextrorphan (DR), excreted in 8 h urine were estimated by high performance liquid chromatography. Metabolic ratio (DM/DR excreted in 8 h) was used as an index of the metabolic status of an individual. RESULTS: The analysis of the data by frequency distribution histogram, probit and NTV plots demonstrated bimodal distribution of the North Indian subjects with respect to hepatic CYP2D6. Out of 100 subjects, 97 were extensive metabolizers (EMs), whereas three were poor metabolizers (PMs). EMs and PMs excreted 29.82 and 2.67 micromol DR (mean value) and 2.59 and 8.82 micromol DM (mean value) in 8 h, respectively. MR and log MR was 197- and 2.2-fold higher in PMs versus EMs. The antimode value of zero was determined by visual observation in frequency distribution histogram and inflection point in probit plot. CONCLUSION: From this study, it can be concluded that the PM phenotype of CYP2D6 occurs with a frequency of 3% (95% confidence interval of 0.33%-6.33%) in North Indians. 相似文献

The CYP1A1, CYP2D6 and GSTM1 genes encode biotransforming enzymes involved in activation and detoxification of xenobiotics. Metabolically activated chemical compounds may interact with DNA and form adducts. In this study, the effect of the GSTM1, CYP1A1 exon 7 and CYP2D6 polymorphisms on DNA adduct levels was studied in 170 healthy volunteers. DNA adducts levels were measured by 32P-postlabelling in mononuclear white blood cells (WBC, lymphocytes and monocytes) and granulocytes collected in summer and winter. The influence of the genotype on the level of DNA adducts in both types of WBCs was observed only in summer samples. Individuals with GSTM1 deficient (null) genotype had significantly elevated level of adducts in mononuclear WBCs (p = 0.045) and granulocytes (p = 0.031) compared to GSTM1 positives. Higher adduct levels in carriers of combined GSTM1(null)/CYP1A1-Ile/Val genotype were found in both types of WBCs when compared to GSTM1(+)/CYP1A1-Ile/Ile genotype carriers (p = 0.046 in granulocytes, p = 0.092 in mononuclear WBCs). CYP2D6 wild-type homozygotes (EMs) and heterozygotes (HEMs) were shown to have significantly higher mononuclear WBC DNA adduct levels than mutant homozygotes (PMs) (p = 0.037 and p = 0.014). When confounding factors associated with PAH exposure were taken into account a statistically significant effect of CYP1A1 exon 7 polymorphism on DNA adduct levels was found (p = 0.012 in mononuclear WBCs, p = 0.043 in granulocytes). In a subgroup of current smokers (n = 95) high DNA adduct levels in granulocytes were associated with GSTM1(null) genotype, and increased adduct levels in mononuclear WBCs correlated with CYP2D6 EM and HEM genotypes. In winter samples the association between the genotype and DNA adduct levels was not observed. 相似文献

The polymorphic cytochrome P450 CYP2D6 is involved in the metabolism of various drugs of wide therapeutic use and is a presumed susceptibility factor for certain environmentally-induced diseases. Our aim was to define the mutations and alleles of the CYP2D6 gene and to evaluate their frequencies in the European population. Using polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism analysis, 672 unrelated subjects were screened for mutations in the 9 exons of the gene and their exon-intron boundaries. A total of 48 point mutations were identified, of which 29 were novel. Mutations 1749 G-->C, 2938 C-->T and 4268 G-->C represented 52.6%, 34.3% and 52.9% of the mutations in the total population, respectively. Of the eight detrimental mutations detected, the 1934 G-->A, the 1795 Tdel and the 2637 Adel accounted for 65.8%, 6.2% and 4.8% respectively, within the poor metabolizer subgroup. Fifty-three different alleles were characterized from the mutation pattern and by allele-specific sequencing. They are derived from three major alleles, namely the wild-type CYP2D6*1A, the functional CYP2D6*2 and the null CYP2D6*4A. Five allelic variants (CYP2D6*1A, *2, *2B, *4A and *5) account for about 87% of all alleles, while the remaining alleles occur with a frequency of 0.1%-2.7%. These data provide a solid basis for future epidemiological, clinical as well as interethnic studies of the CYP2D6 polymorphism and highlight that the described single strand conformation polymorphism method can be successfully used in designing such studies. 相似文献

Lewy body disease (LBD) is a progressive neurological disorder with parkinsonism, having many Lewy bodies (LBs) and degenerative changes. LBD is classified into the three types according to the distribution of LBs: "brain-stem type", "transitional type" and "diffuse type". The brain-stem type is identical to classical Parkinson's disease (PD). The diffuse type is nominated as "diffuse Lewy body disease" (DLBD). DLBD is a neuropathological entity, characterized by abundant LBs not only in the basal ganglia and brain-stem but in the cerebral cortex, combined with senile changes. Juvenile onset DLBD is called "pure form" of DLBD because of no or few senile changes. The LBs are present in the amygdala, nucleus basalis of Meynert, hypothalamic nuclei, substantia nigra, nucleus paranigralis, locus caeruleus, dorsal vagal nucleus and reticular nuclei. The cerebral LBs are numerous in the parahippocampal gyrus, cingular gyrus, and insular, frontal and temporal cortices. The LBs show immunoreactivity to ubiquitin and the ubiquitin-immunoreactive neurites in the CA2-3 region appear to be specific for DLBD. The clinical features of DLBD in the senium are progressive dementia, psychotic state, parkinsonism and autonomic signs. In general, progressive dementia is an initial symptom, followed by parkinsonism in the later stage. Some show progressive autonomic failure. A few present respiratory failure or vocal cord palsy resulting in sudden death in DLBD. DLBD is characterized neurochemically by severe affection of multiple neurotransmitters networks. In DLBD an impairment of the innominato-cortical cholinergic and mesocortical dopaminergic system, differentiating from Alzheimer's disease and PD, may play an important role in developing disease process. 相似文献

The well described genetic polymorphism of the CYP2D6 gene influences response to a wide variety of therapeutic agents metabolized by the CYP2D6 enzyme product. CYP2D6 also appears to play a role, along with other cytochrome P450 enzymes, in the metabolic activation of the tobacco specific nitrosamine, NNK, as well as metabolism of nicotine to cotinine. While impaired activity of CYP2D6 was strongly protective against lung cancer in some studies, primarily based on phenotyping, the literature is conflicting. The molecular basis of CYP2D6 deficiency is now well understood, enabling the use of genotyping to classify individuals. We therefore examined whether lung cancer risk is reduced by the presence of four CYP2D6 alleles associated with impaired activity due to an inactivating mutation--CYP2D6*4, CYP2D6*3, CYP2D6*5 and CYP2D6*16--among 341 incident cases of lung cancer and 710 population controls of Caucasian or African-American ethnicity in Los Angeles County, California. We did not confirm a strong association between the presence of these inactivating alleles and lung cancer risk [odds ratio (OR) = 0.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.60-1.35 for Caucasians], although there was a small decreased risk among the African-Americans (OR = 0.66, 95% CI 0.38-1.14). Among smokers, when the data are stratified according to lifetime smoking history, there is a suggestion of an association limited to Caucasian smokers of <35 pack-years, the median for all smokers in these data (OR = 0.49, 95% CI 0.23-1.04). However, among African-American smokers, who smoke less than Caucasians, the association did not differ between smoking categories. We also examined the possible role of additional copies of the CYP2D6 gene, which lead to enhanced CYP2D6 activity, in increasing lung cancer risk. Among controls the prevalence of having more than two copies of the CYP2D6 gene and no inactivating alleles was 4.3% for Caucasians and 4.9% for African-Americans. Relative to subjects with an inactivating allele, those with an additional copy of the CYP2D6 gene and no inactivating alleles may be at increased risk of lung cancer, particularly for adenocarcinoma (OR = 3.61, 95% CI 1.08-11.7 for African-Americans and OR = 2.20, 95% CI 0.69-6.0 for Caucasians). Our data suggest that the CYP2D6 genetic polymorphism is not the strong risk factor for lung cancer suggested by some studies of phenotype, but may play a minor role. 相似文献

Polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 genes show pronounced interethnic variation and have not been previously studied in the South-Amerindian population, which probably has an Asian origin. Therefore, a similar distribution of allelic and haplotype frequencies of cytochrome P450 genes to Asian populations might be expected in South-Amerindians. We analysed the allelic frequencies and haplotype distribution for CYP2D6, CYP1A1 and CYP2E1 genes in the South-Amerindian population of Chile (Mapuche, n = 84) by Southern blot or polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Similar allelic frequencies and haplotype distribution for the CYP2E1 gene between Mapuches and Asian populations were observed. Frequencies of the two major functional CYP2D6*1 and CYP2D6*2 alleles and the CYP2D6*5 null allele were similar to most populations world-wide. The alleles CYP2D6*3 and *9, absent in Asians, were not found in Mapuches. The CYP2D6*4 allelic group, uncommon in Asian populations, had a low frequency in Mapuches (0.036). However, the CYP2D6*10 allele (Ch1, Ch2 and J), highly frequent in Asians (0.33-0.50), had a very low frequency (0.018) in our study population. In addition, the presence of the common Chinese 44 kb XbaI fragment of CYP2D6 (0.19-0.31 in Asians) was not detected in South-Amerindians. Interestingly, high frequencies for the rare m2 and Val alleles of the CYP1A1 gene were found in Mapuches (0.821 and 0.91, respectively), and the rare Val/m2 haplotype was significantly higher in Mapuches (0.748) than in Asians (0.24) (P < 0.01). The frequency of this haplotype in Mapuches is the highest frequency reported to date. The population studied was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for these polymorphisms. The major differences between Mapuches and Asians were for CYP2D6*10 and CYP1A1 allelic frequencies, as well as the absence of the common Chinese 44 kb XbaI fragment of CYP2D6. These differences might be interpreted as a consequence of genetic drifts caused by a founder effect in the settlement of South-Amerindians, or genetic selection caused by dietary or environmental factors. 相似文献

Pharmacogenetics is the study of the linkage between an individual's genotype and that individual's ability to metabolize a foreign compound. Differences in metabolism of therapeutics can lead to severe toxicity or therapeutic failure by altering the relation between dose and blood concentration of the pharmacologically active drug. Phenotypes exhibiting poor and ultraextensive metabolism result from genetic variance (polymorphism) of enzymes involved in metabolism. Thus, in pharmacogenetic studies one applies genotyping of polymorphic alleles encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes to the identification of an individual's drug metabolism phenotype. This knowledge, when applied to dosing or drug selection, can avoid adverse reactions or therapeutic failure and thus enhance therapeutic efficiency. More than 25 commonly prescribed medicines are metabolized by the cytochrome P-4502D6 (CYP2D6) isoenzyme, and polymorphism of the CYP2D6 gene affects the therapeutic management of up to 17% of individuals in some ethnic groups. In this review, we summarize and update information concerning drug-metabolizing genotypes with emphasis on CYP2D6 genotyping techniques that can be applied by the clinical laboratory for linking human genetics to therapeutic management. 相似文献

The role of two common polymorphisms of enzymes involved in the metabolism of drugs and carcinogens was studied in relation to prostate cancer. The gene encoding one of these enzymes (NAT2) is located in an area where frequent allelic loss occurs in prostate cancer. Mutations at the genes CYP2D6 and NAT2 were analysed by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction and restriction mapping in DNA from 94 subjects with prostate cancer and 160 male healthy control subjects. Eleven prostate specimens were analysed for genotype and enzymatic activities NAT2, CYP2D6 and CYP3A by using the enzyme-specific substrates sulphamethazine and dextromethorphan. Enzyme activities with substrate specificities corresponding to NAT2, CYP2D6 and CYP3A are present in human prostate tissue, with mean +/-s.d. activities of 4.8+/-4.4 pmol min(-1) mg(-1) protein, 156+/-91 and 112+/-72 nmol min(-1) mg(-1) protein respectively. The Km values for the prostate CYP2D6 and CYP3A enzyme activities corresponded to that of liver CYP2D6 and CYP3A activities, and the CYP2D6 enzyme activity is related to the CYP2D6 genotype. The N-acetyltransferase, in contrast, had a higher Km than NAT2 and was independent of the NAT2 genotype. The CYP2D6 and CYP3A enzymes, and an N-acetyltransferase activity that is independent of the regulation of the NAT2 gene, are expressed in human prostate tissue. The presence of carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes in human prostate with a high interindividual variability may be involved in the regulation of local levels of carcinogens and mutagens and may underlie interindividual differences in cancer susceptibility. 相似文献

This study tested the hypothesis that patterns of xenobiotic metabolism in patients with eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome (EMS) differed from healthy control subjects. We determined the genotypes of 27 EMS patients with EMS and 114 control subjects for the cytochrome P450 CYP2D6 polymorphism. The metabolic phenotypes of patients with EMS for S-mephenytoin hydroxylation (n = 17) and dapsone acetylation (n = 19) were determined and compared with 29 healthy control subjects. The incidence of the CYP2D6 poor metabolizer genotype (mutant/mutant) was 0.185 in patients with EMS and 0.061 in control subjects (Mantel-Haenszel, chi 2 = 7.213, p = 0.007). The mephenytoin S/R ratios were 0.39 +/- 0.23 in patients with EMS versus 0.18 +/- 0.13 in control subjects (p < or = 0.005). There was no difference in dapsone acetylation between the two groups. A pattern of xenobiotic metabolism may play a role in the pathogenesis of EMS, but the precise role that it plays remains unclear. 相似文献
