AI Article Synopsis
- Gliclazide metabolism is influenced by genetic variations in the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 enzymes, which can affect how the drug is processed in the body.
- A study involving 27 healthy Korean volunteers revealed that individuals with more defective genetic alleles had significantly higher drug concentration (AUC) and lower clearance rates (CL/F).
- While genetic differences impacted drug metabolism, they did not significantly alter blood glucose and insulin levels, suggesting the need for further research in diabetic patients.
Article Abstract
Gliclazide metabolism is mediated by genetically polymorphic CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 enzymes. We investigated the effects of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of gliclazide. Twenty-seven Korean healthy volunteers were administered a single oral dose of gliclazide 80 mg. The plasma concentration of gliclazide was quantified for the pharmacokinetic analysis and plasma concentrations of glucose and insulin were measured as pharmacodynamic parameters. The pharmacokinetics of gliclazide showed a significant difference according to the number of defective alleles of combined CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. The two defective alleles group (group 3) and one defective allele group (group 2) showed 2.34- and 1.46-fold higher AUC (P < 0.001), and 57.1 and 32.3% lower CL/F (P < 0.001), compared to those of the no defective allele group (group 1), respectively. The CYP2C9IM-CYP2C19IM group had AUC increase of 1.49-fold (P < 0.05) and CL/F decrease by 29.9% (P < 0.01), compared with the CYP2C9 Normal Metabolizer (CYP2C9NM)-CYP2C19IM group. The CYP2C9NM-CYP2C19PM group and CYP2C9NM-CYP2C19IM group showed 2.41- and 1.51-fold higher AUC (P < 0.001), and 59.6 and 35.4% lower CL/F (P < 0.001), compared to those of the CYP2C9NM-CYP2C19NM group, respectively. The results represented that CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms significantly affected the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide. Although the genetic polymorphism of CYP2C19 had a greater effect on the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide, the genetic polymorphism of CYP2C9 also had a significant effect. On the other hand, plasma glucose and insulin responses to gliclazide were not significantly affected by the CYP2C9-CYP2C19 genotypes, requiring further well-controlled studies with long-term dosing of gliclazide in diabetic patients.

: Pinocembrin is a promising drug candidate for treating ischemic stroke. The interaction of pinocembrin with drug transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes is not fully revealed. The present study aims to evaluate the interaction potential of pinocembrin with cytochrome P450 (CYP450: CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19) and drug transporters including organic anion transporters (OAT1 and OAT3), organic cation transporters (OCT1 and OCT2), multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE1 and MATE2, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP).

Introduction: Deglycosylated azithromycin (Deg-AZM), a new transgelin agonist with positive therapeutic effects on slow transit constipation, has been approved for clinical trials in 2024. This work investigated the drug metabolism and transport of Deg-AZM to provide research data for further development of Deg-AZM.
Methods: A combination of UPLC-QTOF-MS was used to obtain metabolite spectra of Deg-AZM in plasma, urine, feces and bile.

The previously reported Template system for the prediction of human CYP2B6-mediated reactions (Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 26 309-330, 2011) has been refined with the introduction of ideas of allowable width, Trigger-residue and the residue-initiated movement of ligands in the active site. The refined system also includes ideas of bi-molecule binding on Template. With the use of these ideas in common with other Template systems for human CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4, 360 reactions of 261 distinct chemicals reported as CYP2B6 ligands were examined in the refined system.

Article Synopsis
- Gliclazide is a medication for type 2 diabetes, primarily metabolized by genetic variations in the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 enzymes.
- A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed to analyze how these genetic differences affect gliclazide's effects in patients.
- The model accurately predicted drug concentration levels in the bloodstream, meeting standard evaluation criteria and potentially paving the way for personalized treatment plans based on genetic profiles.
