Objective: Omeprazole is metabolized by the two cytochrome P450 isoforms, CYP3A (sulfoxidation) and CYP2C 19 (hydroxydation). The aim of this study was to determine whether the CYP3A5 genotype is an important determinant of inter-individual variability of total CYP3A activity in vivo.
Methods: Plasma levels of omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography in blood samples drawn 4-5 h after 43 CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (PMs) had ingested a single oral 40 mg dose of omeprazole. The CYP3A5*3 allele was identified using a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay.
Results: Among the 43 CYP2C19 PMs, 24 were CYP3A5*3/*3 carriers and 19 were CYP3A5*1 carriers (CYP3A5*I/*I in one subject and CYP3A5*1/*3 in 18 subjects). No significant difference was found between the mean log10 (metabolic ratio) of the CYP3A5*3/*3 carriers (0.314 +/- 0.369) and CYP3A5*1 carriers (0.330 +/- 0.313).
Conclusions: The CYP3A5 genotype was not an important factor underlying the inter-individual variation in the metabolic ratio of omeprazole to omeprazole sulfone in our study cohort, although genotype can be considered to be responsible for the inter-individual variation of many CYP3A substrates in vivo.

Aripiprazole (ARI) is an atypical antipsychotic which is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in eliminating potentially harmful compounds from the organism. ARI once-monthly (AOM) is a long-acting injectable form which improves treatment compliance. Genetic polymorphisms in ABCB1 may lead to changes in P-gp function, leading to individual differences in drug disposition.

Tacrolimus is extensively used for the prevention of graft rejection following solid organ transplantation in pregnant women. However, knowledge gaps in the dosage of tacrolimus for pregnant patients with different CYP3A5 genotypes and infection conditions have been identified. This study aimed to develop a pregnant physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to characterize the maternal and fetal pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus during pregnancy and explore and provide dosage adjustments.

Endocrine ophthalmopathy (EO; also called Graves' ophthalmopathy, thyroid eye disease) is a common extrathyroidal manifestation of Graves' disease, characterized by the presence of autoimmune inflammatory process in the orbital soft tissues. The prevalence of EO is approximately 10 cases per 10.000 population, higher in individuals over 50 years old.

Biomarkers that identify tumors with better/worse prognosis can help reduce treatment costs and contribute to patient survival. In urothelial bladder cancer (UBC), accurate prediction of recurrence and progression is essential to inform therapeutic management. Herein, we explore the role of genetic variants of xenobiotic metabolic pathways in UBC susceptibility and prognosis.
