Interethnic variability in the drug-metabolizing capacity of CYP450 enzymes may lead to discrepancies in the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes worldwide. The present study was aimed to analyze for the first time whether there is a relationship between clinically relevant CYP450 genetic polymorphisms and their drug oxidation capacity (metabolic phenotype) in a population of healthy Nicaraguan volunteers. Two hundred and twelve participants were genotyped for CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4, and their actual metabolic phenotype (evaluated by the Metabolic Ratio, MR) was analyzed by using the CEIBA cocktail approach. The results showed the wide interindividual variability in all the studied enzymes and a significant difference (p < 0.004) in the activity of CYP1A2 between male and female subjects. The number of CYP2C19 (p < 0.0001) and CYP2D6 (p < 0.0001) active alleles were shown inversely correlated with their corresponding MR, although there were marked genotype-phenotype discrepancies. There was an actual enzyme capacity overlapping (MR) between genotypically Poor (gPMs) and Extensive Metabolizers (gEMs) of 3.14% subjects for CYP2D6 and 0.94% for CYP2C9. Similarly, there was an overlapping for metabolic phenotypes of 11.48% of genotypically ultrarapid metabolizers (gUMs) for CYP2C19 and 2.09% for CYP2D6 and gEMs. Therefore, the current approach for metabolic phenotype prediction based just on genotype does not predict properly for all individuals within this Nicaraguan Mestizo population, thus representing a potential barrier for the clinical implementation of personalized medicine in this region. However, it is necessary to improve the prediction of phenotype from genotype in order to improve the pharmacogenetic implementation in populations with specific ethnic backgrounds.

Although the antiallergic properties of compounds such as CAPE, Melatonin, Curcumin, and Vitamin C have been poorly discussed by experimental studies, the antiallergic properties of these famous molecules have never been discussed with calculations. The histamine-1 receptor (H1R) belongs to the family of rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptors expressed in cells that mediate allergies and other pathophysiological diseases. In this study, pharmacological activities of FDA-approved second generation H1 antihistamines (Levocetirizine, desloratadine and fexofenadine) and molecules such as CAPE, Melatonin, Curcumin, Vitamin C, ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, Toxicity) profiles, density functional theory (DFT), molecular docking, biological targets and activities were compared by calculating.

A Template system for the understanding of human CYP2J2-mediated reactions was constructed from the assembly of the ligands with the introduction of ideas of allowable width, Trigger-residue and the residue-initiated movement of ligands in the active site, which were in common with other Template* systems for human CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 (Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and in press 2024). CYP2J2 system also includes ideas of bi-molecule binding of ligands on the Template. From their placements on the Template and rules for interaction modes, verifications of good and poor substrates, regio/stereo-selectivity, and inhibitory interaction became available faithfully for these ligands.

Seralutinib, an inhaled, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), was evaluated for its potential as a perpetrator or victim of a metabolic and transporter-based drug-drug interactions in 2 phase 1 studies. In study 1, 24 participants received a cocktail of probe substrates: caffeine (CYP1A2), montelukast (CYP2C8), flurbiprofen (CYP2C9), midazolam (CYP3A), and pravastatin (OATP1B1/1B3), plus digoxin (P-gp) with or without seralutinib. In study 2, 19 participants received seralutinib with/without itraconazole, a strong CYP3A inhibitor, or fosaprepitant, a weak CYP3A inhibitor.

Background And Objective: The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of risankizumab on the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A substrates in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) using a cocktail approach.

Methods: Patients with CD or UC (n = 20) received single doses of probe substrates for CYP1A2 (caffeine 100 mg), CYP2C9 (warfarin 10 mg), CYP2C19 (omeprazole 20 mg), CYP2D6 (metoprolol 50 mg), and CYP3A (midazolam 2 mg) before and after intravenous infusions of risankizumab 1800 mg once every 4 weeks for four doses. Serial blood samples were collected for determination of concentrations of the CYP probe drugs and metabolites with and without risankizumab.

This study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetics of ginkgo flavone aglycone(GA) in plasma after oral administration of GA in normal and atherosclerosis(AS) model rats and to explore the mechanism of pharmacokinetic differences. The AS rats were prepared by using high-fat diets. Rats in the normal and AS model groups were orally given 200 mg·kg~(-1) GA, blood samples were collected at different time points, plasma was separated, and the plasma concentrations of quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin in the normal and AS model groups were determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS).
