The Association of a Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism in the Nuclear Factor (Erythroid-Derived 2)-Like 2 Gene With Adverse Drug Reactions, Multimorbidity, and Frailty in Older People.

Susceptibility to adverse drug reactions (ADRs), multimorbidity, and frailty are associated with human aging, yet there is wide variation in the severity and age at which individuals are afflicted. Identifying genetic markers of increased risk of this phenotype would help stratify individuals to specialist interventions. Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) regulates a cell's response to stressors, including the expression of enzymes involved in drug metabolism.
