AI 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.
Article Abstract
Gliclazide is a sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agent used to treat type 2 diabetes. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 and CYP2C19 are primarily involved in the hepatic metabolism of gliclazide. The two CYP isozymes are highly polymorphic, and their genetic polymorphisms are known to significantly impact the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide. In the present study, the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed using data from subjects whose pharmacokinetic parameters were influenced by the genetic polymorphisms of the CYP metabolic enzymes. All predicted plasma concentration-time profiles generated by the model showed visual agreement with the observed data, and the pharmacokinetic results were within the twofold error range. Individual simulation results showed additional metrics: average fold error (- 0.19 to 0.07), geometric mean fold error (1.13-1.56), and mean relative deviation (1.18-1.58) for AUC, C, T, T, CL/F, and V values. These results met the standard evaluation criteria. The validation across a total of 8 studies and 7 races also satisfied the twofold error range for AUC, C, and T. Therefore, variations in gliclazide exposure according to individuals' CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes were properly captured through PBPK modeling in this study. This PBPK model may allow us to predict the gliclazide pharmacokinetics of patients with genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C9 and CYPC19 under various conditions, ultimately contributing to the realization of individualized drug therapy.

Large-scale gene-environment interaction (GxE) discovery efforts often involve analytical compromises for the sake of data harmonization and statistical power. Refinement of exposures, covariates, outcomes, and population subsets may be helpful to establish often-elusive replication and evaluate potential clinical utility. Here, we used additional datasets, an expanded set of statistical models, and interrogation of lipoprotein metabolism via nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based lipoprotein subfractions to refine a previously discovered GxE modifying the relationship between physical activity (PA) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C).

The study found a significant causal relationship between coffee intake and obsessive-compulsive disorder, showing a negative correlation. There was no causal relationship between coffee intake and other mental disorders. The sensitivity analysis test found no pleiotropy affecting the results, and no single nucleotide polymorphism had a major impact on the robustness of the results, indicating that the results are stable and reliable.

Background: The study aimed to detect the association between insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) polymorphisms among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Materials And Methods: This study involved 500 individuals; 250 obese DM cases and 250 healthy controls. The polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to identify the genotype of the IGF2BP2 gene for the small nucleoproteins rs4402960 (G>T) and small nucleoproteins rs800795 (G>C).
Inactivation of disease alleles by allele-specific editing is a promising approach to treat dominant-negative genetic disorders, provided the causative gene is haplo-sufficient. We previously edited a dominant missense mutation with inactivating frameshifts and rescued disease-relevant phenotypes in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons. However, a multitude of different missense mutations cause disease.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) with no definitive trigger. However, epidemiological studies indicate that environmental factors, such as infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and low vitamin D (Vit D) levels in genetically predisposed individuals, are important risk factors. One leading proposal is that EBV triggers MS via mechanisms such as molecular mimicry, where activated autoreactive B and T lymphocytes mistakenly target self-antigens.
