Aims: Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) 2D6 is an important member of the P450 enzyme superfamily and responsible for clearing 25% of clinically important drugs. The aim of this study was to assess the catalytic characteristics of 24 CYP2D6 allelic isoforms found in the Chinese population and their effects on the metabolism of risperidone in vitro.

Methods: Insect microsomes expressing wild-type CYP2D6 and 24 CYP2D6 allelic variants were incubated with 20-1,000 μmol/l risperidone for 40 min at 37°C. After termination, risperidone and 9-OH risperidone, the metabolite of risperidone, were precipitated and used for signal collection by ultra-performance liquid-chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.

Results: Among 24 CYP2D6 variants tested, 2 variants (CYP2D6*92 and CYP2D6*96) were found to be with no detectable activity. Two variants (E215K and R440C) exhibited higher intrinsic clearance values than the wild-type protein, while the remaining 20 CYP2D6 allelic variants exhibited significantly decreased clearance values (2.01-87.56%) compared to CYP2D6*1.

Conclusion: These findings suggest that more attention should be directed to subjects carrying these infrequent CYP2D6 alleles when administering risperidone in the clinic. This is the first report of all these novel alleles for risperidone metabolism, providing fundamental data for further clinical studies on CYP2D6 alleles.

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) pose substantial public health issues, necessitating population-specific characterization due to variations in pharmacogenes. This study delineates the pharmacogenomic (PGx) landscape of the South Korean (SKR) population, focusing on 21 core pharmacogenes. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was conducted on 396 individuals, including 99 healthy volunteers, 95 patients with chronic diseases, 81 with colon cancer, 81 with breast cancer, and 40 with gastric cancer, to identify genotype-specific drug dosing recommendations.

Article Synopsis
  • Donepezil, a medication for Alzheimer's disease, shows varied effectiveness among patients, prompting this study to explore how genetic variations in the CYP2D6 gene affect its efficacy and side effects in Koreans with AD dementia.
  • The study involved 76 patients on different doses of donepezil and identified 9 CYP2D6 genetic variants, analyzing their impact on drug concentration and cognitive performance over three years.
  • Results indicated that while donepezil concentrations differed based on genetic makeup, this variation did not correlate with cognitive improvements or adverse events, highlighting the need for further research on genetic influences in treatment outcomes.

An over-the-counter product berberine (a major alkaloid in goldenseal) is a substrate of the uptake transporter OCT1 and the metabolizing enzyme CYP2D6. The two genes exhibit common functional polymorphisms. Approximately 9% of Europeans and white Americans are either poor CYP2D6 metabolizers or poor OCT1 transporters.
