The purpose of this study was to identify genotypes associated with dose-adjusted tacrolimus trough concentrations (C/D) in kidney transplant recipients using whole-exome sequencing (WES). This study included 147 patients administered tacrolimus, including seventy-five patients in the discovery set and seventy-two patients in the replication set. The patient genomes in the discovery set were sequenced using WES. Also, known tacrolimus pharmacokinetics-related intron variants were genotyped. Tacrolimus C/D was log-transformed. Sixteen variants were identified including novel CYP3A7 rs12360 and rs10211 by ANOVA. CYP3A7 rs2257401 was found to be the most significant variant among the periods by ANOVA. Seven variants including CYP3A7 rs2257401, rs12360, and rs10211 were analyzed by SNaPshot in the replication set and the effects on tacrolimus C/D were verified. A linear mixed model (LMM) was further performed to account for the effects of the variants and clinical factors. The combined set LMM showed that only CYP3A7 rs2257401 was associated with tacrolimus C/D after adjusting for patient age, albumin, and creatinine. The CYP3A7 rs2257401 genotype variant showed a significant difference on the tacrolimus C/D in those expressing CYP3A5, showing its own effect. The results suggest that CYP3A7 rs2257401 may serve as a significant genetic marker for tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in kidney transplantation.

Mercury (Hg) pollution is a global public health concern because of its adverse effects on the environment and health. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with Hg levels and outcomes. The aim of this review was to describe the research and discuss the evidence on the genetic susceptibility of Hg-exposed individuals to the development of neurocognitive disorders.

Over 50% prescribed drugs are metabolised by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) and glutathione S-transferase pi (GSTP1) adds a glutathione to the oxidative products by CYP3A, which increases the hydrophilic property of metabolites and facilitates the excretion. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYP3A and GSTP1 show a diverse allele and genotype frequencies distribution among the world populations. The present study aimed to investigate the genotype and allele frequency distribution patterns of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7 and GSTP1 polymorphisms among healthy participants in mainland Tibetan, Mongolian, Uyghur, and Han Chinese populations.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of CYP3A7, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 genetic polymorphisms in liver transplant recipients and donors on tacrolimus concentrations in the early stages after liver transplantation.
Methods: One hundred and thirty-eight liver transplant recipients and matched donors were genotyped for CYP3A7 (rs10211 and rs2257401), CYP3A4 (rs4646437 and rs2242480), and CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) polymorphisms. The relationships between dose-adjusted trough concentrations (C/D) of tacrolimus and corresponding genotypes were investigated.

We analyzed the relationship between polymorphic loci of CYP3A genes (CYP3A4 (rs2740574), CYP3A5 (rs776746) and CYP3A7 (rs2257401)) with the development of chronic mercury intoxication. Of 170 men examined, 120 were workers chronically exposed to mercury vapors and 50 were carriers of GG-HSPA1B (+1267A/G) genotype associated with chronic mercury intoxication. Urinary content of 4-hydroxyantipyrine (4-HAP) generated in the reaction predominantly catalyzed by CYP3A4/CYP3A5 was studied in workers without chronic mercury intoxication (group 1, N=46) and patients in the delayed period of chronic mercury intoxication (group 2, N=74) depending on the genotypes of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential impact of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 polymorphisms on the concentration and efficacy of tacrolimus in a cohort of pediatric patients with nephrotic range proteinuria.
Methods: Genetic variants including CYP3A5*3 (rs776746), CYP3A4*1G (rs2242480), rs4646437, and CYP3A7 rs2257401 and rs10211 were detected in 70 pediatric patients with nephrotic range proteinuria. The relationships of dose-adjusted trough concentration (C) of tacrolimus with corresponding genotypes were investigated.
