Impact of CYP2D6*2, CYP2D6*35, rs5758550, and related haplotypes on risperidone clearance in vivo.

Purpose: The CYP2D6 gene exhibits significant polymorphism, contributing to variability in responses to drugs metabolized by CYP2D6. While CYP2D6*2 and CYP2D6*35 are presently designated as alleles encoding normal metabolism, this classification is based on moderate level evidence. Additionally, the role of the formerly called "enhancer" single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs5758550 is unclear.

Impact of the novel CYP2C:TG haplotype and CYP2B6 variants on sertraline exposure in a large patient population.

Sertraline is a commonly used SSRI antidepressant drug, metabolized by CYP2C19 and CYP2B6, that exhibits a substantial interindividual variation in clinical response, of which only a part can be attributed to known genetic variants. In the current study we have examined the role of a newly discovered ultrarapid CYP2C:TG haplotype and CYP2B6 variants in order to identify the possible missing heritability for such variation in sertraline response in a large patient population (n = 840). Compared to the reference group (CYP2C19*1/*1, n = 160), sertraline exposure was increased by 128% in CYP2C19 PMs (n = 29, p < 0.

A Novel CYP2C-Haplotype Associated With Ultrarapid Metabolism of Escitalopram.

Escitalopram is one of the most commonly used antidepressant drugs but exhibits a substantial interindividual variation in clinical response. A key factor underlying response differences is the polymorphic nature of the CYP2C19 gene encoding the major enzyme responsible for escitalopram metabolism. Although pre-emptive CYP2C19 genotyping may improve escitalopram treatment outcome by dose individualization, much of the interindividual variability cannot be assigned to the currently known CYP2C19 gene variants.

The Influence of Combined CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 Genotypes on Venlafaxine and O-Desmethylvenlafaxine Concentrations in a Large Patient Cohort.

Purpose: The antidepressant venlafaxine is largely O-desmethylated by CYP2D6, whereas CYP2C19 mediates an alternative metabolic route of venlafaxine through N-desmethylation. The aim of this study was to investigate the combined effect of genotype-predicted CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 phenotypes on serum concentrations of venlafaxine and metabolites in a large patient population.

Methods: Patients were retrospectively included from a therapeutic drug monitoring service at Diakonhjemmet Hospital in Oslo (Norway) between January 01, 2007, and December 31, 2017.

Impact of CYP2C19 genotype on sertraline exposure in 1200 Scandinavian patients.

Sertraline is an (SSRI-)antidepressant metabolized by the polymorphic CYP2C19 enzyme. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of CYP2C19 genotype on the serum concentrations of sertraline in a large patient population. Second, the proportions of patients in the various CYP2C19 genotype-defined subgroups obtaining serum concentrations outside the therapeutic range of sertraline were assessed.

Cecal microbiota association with tumor load in a colorectal cancer mouse model.

: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancer types worldwide. The role of the intestinal microbiota in CRC, however, is not well established. In particular, the co-variation between age, tumor progression and microbiota remains largely unknown.
