Effect of CYP2D6 genotypes on the metabolism of haloperidol in a Japanese psychiatric population.

We investigated the effect of CYP2D6 genotypes on plasma levels of haloperidol (HAL) and reduced haloperidol (RHAL) in 88 Japanese schizophrenic inpatients being treated with HAL. Some subjects carrying CYP2D6*5 allele (CYP2D6*1/CYP2D6*5, CYP2D6*5/CYP2D6*10) showed extremely high concentrations of both HAL and RHAL, and the groups with CYP2D6*5 allele seemed to have higher plasma concentrations of HAL (1.14+/-0.

The impact of CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 genotypes on metabolism of amitriptyline in Japanese psychiatric patients.

We investigated the effect of the CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 genotypes on the metabolism of amitriptyline (AT) in Japanese psychiatric patients. Steady-state concentrations of AT and its metabolites (nortriptyline [NT], trans-10-hydroxy-nortriptyline [EHNT], cis-10-hydroxy-nortriptyline [ZHNT], trans-10-hydroxy-amitriptyline [EHAT], and cis-10-hydroxy-amitriptyline [ZHAT]) in 50 patients were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Significantly higher plasma concentrations of AT corrected for dose and body weight in the subjects with two mutated alleles of CYP2C19 than in those with no mutated alleles of CYP2C19 were observed (no mutated alleles vs.

Lack of impact of CYP1A2 genetic polymorphism (C/A polymorphism at position 734 in intron 1 and G/A polymorphism at position -2964 in the 5'-flanking region of CYP1A2) on the plasma concentration of haloperidol in smoking male Japanese with schizophrenia.

The impact of genetic polymorphism of CYP1A2 that are related to the induction of the isozyme on the plasma levels of haloperidol (HAL) in 40 male smokers with schizophrenia was investigated. A point mutation from C to A in intron 1 at position 734 and a point mutation from G to A at position -2964 in the 5'-flanking region of CYP1A2 were identified by polymerase chain-reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphism method. Regarding C/A polymorphism in intron 1 at position 734, no significant difference was found in the plasma concentrations of HAL corrected for dose and weight among the subjects with A/A (n = 21), A/C (n = 14) and C/C (n = 5) genotypes (one-way analysis of variance: 63.
