Background: Solute Carrier Family 22 Member 1 (, also known as OCT1) protein has a vital role in the metabolism of metformin, a first-line anti-diabetes medication. Genetic poly-morphism in influences individual response to metformin.
Objective: This review aims to compile the current knowledge about the effects of genetic polymorphism on metformin pharmacokinetics and HbA1c levels.
Methods: We followed the PRISMA 2020 standards to conduct a systematic review. We searched the publications for all appropriate evidence on the effects of genetic polymorphism on metformin pharmacokinetics and HbA1c from January 2002 to December 2022.
Results: Initial database searches identified 7,171 relevant studies. We reviewed 155 titles and abstracts after deleting duplicates. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 23 studies remained.
Conclusion: Three studies found that rs12208357, rs34059508, and G465R had a considerable impact (p < 0.05) on metformin pharmacokinetics, resulting in increased metformin plasma (Cmax), a higher active amount of drug in the blood (AUC), and lower volume of distribution (Vd) (p<0.05). polymorphisms with effects on HbA1c include rs628031 (four of seven studies), rs622342 (four of six studies), rs594709 (one study), rs2297374, and rs1867351 (one of two studies), rs34130495 (one study), and rs11212617 (one study) (p < 0.05).

Introduction: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a multifactorial and age-related dermatological disease that affects both males and females, usually at older ages. Traditional hair repair drugs exemplified by minoxidil have limitations such as skin irritation and hypertrichosis. Thus, attention has been shifted to the use of repurposing drugs.

Deciphering the sources of variability in drug responses requires to understand the processes modulating drug pharmacokinetics. However, pharmacological research suffers from poor reproducibility across clinical, animal, and experimental models. Predictivity can be improved by using Organs-on-Chips, which are more physiological, human-oriented, micro-engineered devices that include microfluidics.

In this research, the photophysical properties of metformin hydrochloride (MF-HCl) were studied using spectroscopic and molecular docking techniques. The interaction between metformin hydrochloride and caffeine is essential for understanding the pharmacokinetics of metformin, particularly in populations with high caffeine consumption. Metformin is a first-line medication for managing type 2 diabetes, while caffeine is a widely consumed dietary stimulant.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous endocrine and metabolic disorder associated with insulin resistance (IR) and hyperandrogenism. IR plays a crucial role in the etiology of PCOS. An insulin-sensitizing agent like metformin is most commonly used as an off-label drug for the treatment of PCOS.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by metabolic defects, including insulin deficiency and resistance. Individuals with diabetes are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular complications, such as atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and hypertension. Conventional treatment methods, though effective, are often challenging, costly, and may lead to systemic side effects.
