Background/aim: Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is required for drug metabolism by all microsomal cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. The aim of this study was to investigate whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the POR gene were correlated with interindividual variations in CYP2B6 activity, as measured by bupropion hydroxylation.
Methods: Thirty-five healthy individuals with selected CYP2B6 and POR polymorphisms were involved in the clinical study. The activity of CYP2B6 was evaluated on the basis of the area under the time-concentration curve (AUC) ratio of hydroxybupropion versus bupropion (AUC_hyd/AUC_bup).
Results: Individuals carrying CYP2B6*1/*1 showed a significantly higher mean AUC_hyd/AUC_bup than individuals carrying the CYP2B6*1/*6 and CYP2B6*6/*6 variants (17.1 ± 6.23 vs. 10.3 ± 4.53, P = 0.003 and 17.1 ± 6.23 vs. 9.41 ± 2.84, P = 0.002, respectively). POR g.6593A>G (rs2868177) AA homozygotes showed a significantly lower mean AUC_hyd/AUC_bup than POR g.6593A>G AG heterozygotes or GG homozygotes (8.54 ± 2.65 vs. 14.9 ± 6.06, P = 0.005 and 8.54 ± 2.65 vs. 16.8 ± 6.45, P = 0.002, respectively). Moreover, POR g.6593A>G AA homozygotes had a significantly lower mean AUC_hyd/AUC_bup than the POR g.6593A>G AG/GG genotypes in the CYP2B6*1/*1, CYP2B6*1/*6 and CYP2B6*6/*6 groups (10.9 ± 1.82 vs. 19.7 ± 5.53, P < 0.001; 6.18 ± 0.284 vs. 12.1 ± 4.31, P = 0.011; and 6.94 ± 1.48 vs. 10.9 ± 2.39, P = 0.043, respectively). There was no significant difference in the mean AUC_hyd/AUC_bup among different POR c.1508C>T (*28 or rs1057868) genotypes, even after the effect of CYP2B6*6 was excluded.
Conclusion: These results indicate, for the first time, that the POR g.6593A>G polymorphism significantly influences CYP2B6 activity, as measured by bupropion hydroxylation, in humans, and the CYP2B6*6 and POR g.6593A>G polymorphisms might be considered simultaneously for the individualized therapy with CYP2B6 substrate drugs such as bupropion.

Predicting long-term recurrence of disease in breast cancer (BC) patients remains a significant challenge for patients with early stage disease who are at low to intermediate risk of relapse as determined using current clinical tools. Prognostic assays which utilize bulk transcriptomics ignore the spatial context of the cellular material and are, therefore, of limited value in the development of mechanistic models. In this study, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) chemical images of BC tissue were used to train deep learning models to predict future disease recurrence.

Designing and realizing new topologies represent one of the most important ways toward developing new structures and functionalities for molecule-based frameworks including SOFs, MOFs, and COFs. Herein, Aldol condensation between 5,10,15,20-tetrayl(tetrakis(([1,1':3',1''-terphenyl]-4,4''-dicarbaldehyde)))-porphyrin (TTEP) and 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazine (TMT) affords the vinylene-linked 3D covalent organic framework Por-COF-cya. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) in combination with structural simulation reveals its high crystalline structure with an unprecedented cya topology in the molecule-based frameworks reported thus far.

Si anode materials are promising candidates for next-generation Li-ion batteries (LIBs) because of their high capacities. However, expansion and low conductivity result in rapid performance degradation. Herein, we present a facile one-pot method for pyrolyzing polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) polymers at low temperatures (≤400 °C) to form a thin carbonaceous layer on the silicon surface.
