Abstract
SUMMARY Warfarin-induced bleeding complications and high inter-patient variability are major hindrances to oral anticoagulant therapy. The present study identifies the influence of VKORC1 diplotypes, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 variants on warfarin disposition and dose requirements in Chinese patients (n=107). The study subjects were genotyped for VKORC1, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 polymorphic variants. Weekly warfarin dose requirements and S-warfarin clearance were stratified by VKORC1, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 pharmacogenetics. The major VKORC1 diplotypes were H1-H1 (62%), H1-H7 (18%) and H1-H(*)(b) (10%). Warfarin dose requirements were significantly lower in patients with VKORC1 H1-H1 and H1-H(*)(a) diplotypes compared to patients harboring the H1-H7 and H1-H(*)(b) diplotypes (P<0.05). Hepatic tissues with H1-H1 diplotype had significantly lower expression of VKORC1 mRNA compared with liver tissues carrying the H1-H7 and H1-H(*)(b) diplotypes (P=0.006). The percent variability explained by VKORC1 diplotype status was 59.1% while the CYP2C9 genotype status accounted for 6.9% variability in warfarin dose requirements. Patient age and weight were significant covariates accounting for 29% and 8.6% of warfarin dose variability, respectively. The present study shows that VKORC1 diplotype status, CYP2C9 genotype, age and weight are significant covariates, accounting for 73.4% of interindividual variability in warfarin dose requirements among Chinese patients. Translation of these findings into clinical guidelines for warfarin dosing may be required to assess its impact on the safety and efficacy of warfarin.

Abstract
Human cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) accounts for ∼20% of hepatic total CYP content and metabolizes ~15% clinical drugs such as phenytoin, S-warfarin, tolbutamide, losartan, and many nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs). CYP2C9 is highly polymorphic, with at least 33 variants of CYP2C9 (*1B through *34) being identified so far. CYP2C9*2 is frequent among Caucasians with ~1% of the population being homozygous carriers and 22% are heterozygous. The corresponding figures for the CYP2C9*3 allele are 0.4% and 15%, respectively. There are a number of clinical studies addressing the impact of CYP2C9 polymorphisms on the clearance and/or therapeutic response of therapeutic drugs. These studies have highlighted the importance of the CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles as a determining factor for drug clearance and drug response. The CYP2C9 polymorphisms are relevant for the efficacy and adverse effects of numerous NSAIDs, sulfonylurea antidiabetic drugs and, most critically, oral anticoagulants belonging to the class of vitamin K epoxide reductase inhibitors. Warfarin has served as a practical example of how pharmacogenetics can be utilized to achieve maximum efficacy and minimum toxicity. For many of these drugs, a clear gene-dose and gene-effect relationship has been observed in patients. In this regard, CYP2C9 alleles can be considered as a useful biomarker in monitoring drug response and adverse effects. Genetic testing of CYP2C9 is expected to play a role in predicting drug clearance and conducting individualized pharmacotherapy. However, prospective clinical studies with large samples are warranted to establish gene-dose and gene-effect relationships for CYP2C9 and its substrate drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effect of CYP2C9 and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) genotypes was evaluated for the early-phase and steady-state warfarin dosing in Korean patients with mechanical heart valve replacement. METHODS The genotypes of CYP2C9 variants including CYP2C9*3, CYP2C9*13, and CYP2C9*14, and VKORC1 1173C>T were assessed for the association with warfarin dosing in 265 patients whose data were collected for warfarin dose; international normalized ratio (INR), comedication, comorbidity, and other clinical characteristics. RESULTS In the early phase of warfarin therapy, the combined genotypes of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 caused statistically significant difference in warfarin dose from day 7 of warfarin dosing and the subsequent time course of dose increase showed significant difference among the three different genotypes (P<0.001). Compared with patients with CYP2C9 wild type, the patients with heterozygous CYP2C9 variants have delayed time to reach stable dose [adjusted hazard ratio (HRadj): 0.48; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.27-0.85] and tended to have high risk for the first INR greater than 3.5 (HRadj: 1.64; 95% CI: 0.98-2.75). The patients with the VKORC1 CT genotype showed no significant difference in the time to reach stable dose but statistically significant low HR for time to first INR greater than 3.5 compared with those with VKORC1 TT genotype (HRadj: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.13-0.51). The observed warfarin maintenance dose was best explained by a model including covariates of age, weight, concurrent congestive heart failure/cardiomyopathy, INR-increasing drugs, aspirin, dietary supplements, and CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes (R=0.56). CONCLUSION The heterozygous CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes influence warfarin dosing in an early phase as well as steady state of warfarin therapy in Korean patients with mechanical heart valve replacement.

Abstract
AIMS To study the frequency distribution of cytochrome P450 (CYP) functional genetic variants in five Eurasian populations from the territory of Siberia in Russia. MATERIALS & METHODS Unrelated healthy Tuvinians, Buryats, Altaians, Yakuts and Russians (n = 87-88) were genotyped for CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A5*6. Standard pairwise genetic distances, locus-specific and global Fst statistics were calculated. RESULTS CYP allele and genotype frequencies demonstrated significant variability. Overall, the degree of between-population variance displayed by CYP SNPs was lower than that recorded from neutral short tandem repeats and Alu-insertion polymorphism, indicating evolutionary conservation of CYP polymorphisms. CYP-based genetic distances were well correlated with the geographic distances across populations (r = 0.822, p = 0.008). CONCLUSIONS Although the tested variants were present in the neighboring, yet secluded, populations at the expected range of frequencies, the observed frequencies were significantly variable across Eurasian populations, indicating potential relevance to clinical decision making.

Abstract
Intensive blood glucose lowering can significantly reduce the risk of micro- and macrovascular complications in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, 30% of all treated patients do not achieve optimal blood glucose levels. Genetic factors may influence the response to glucose-lowering medication. A search of MEDLINE-indexed literature published between January 1966 and July 2007 revealed 37 studies reporting data on genetic polymorphisms and response to glucose-lowering drugs. Most studies involving cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes had small sample sizes (21 studies <50 subjects) and were among healthy volunteers. Multiple studies indicated that the CYP2C9 *3 allele (Ile359Leu polymorphism) was associated with decreased clearance of sulfonylurea drugs. Supporting this, one study reported an increased insulin secretion in CYP2C9*3 allele carriers when using the sulfonylurea agent glyburide. The CYP2C9*3 allele was also associated with a decreased clearance of meglitinides, whereas the CYP2C8*3 (Arg139Lys; Lys399Arg) variant increased the clearance of meglitinides. Polymorphisms in genes encoding the inwardly rectifying potassium channel Kir6.2 (KCNJ11) and the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS1) were reported to be associated with an increased risk of (secondary) failure to respond to sulfonylurea therapy. A significant decrease in fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) in response to rosiglitazone was seen in subjects carrying the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARG) gene. Conversely, carriers of this polymorphism also had a higher conversion to diabetes mellitus when treated with acarbose; this effect was also seen in adiponectin (ADIPOQ) gene polymorphism carriers. Future studies with adequate sample sizes in which several SNPs in multiple candidate genes are genotyped in patients with diabetes should provide reliable information on genetic variants and response to glucose-lowering drugs.

Abstract
We examined the contribution of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes and drug interactions to the phenytoin metabolism among 97 Korean epileptic patients to determine if pharmacogenetic testing could be utilized in routine clinical practice. The CYP2C9 polymorphism is a wellknown major genetic factor responsible for phenytoin metabolism. The CYP219 polymorphism, with a high incidence of variant alleles, has a minor influence on phenytoin treated Koran patients. Using a multiple regression model for evaluation of the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes, together with other non-genetic variables, we explained 39.6% of the variance in serum phenytoin levels. Incorporation of genotyping for CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 into a clinical practice may be of some help in the determination of phenytoin dosage. However, because concurrent drug treatment is common in patients taking phenytoin and many environmental factors are likely to play a role in drug metabolism, these factors may overwhelm the relevance of CYP polymorphisms in the clinical setting. Further investigations with an approach to dose assessment that includes comprehensive interpretation of both pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic data along with understanding of the mechanism of drug interactions in dosage adjustment is warranted.

Abstract
This study was designed to assess the effect of CYP2C19 polymorphism on warfarin dosage requirements and bleeding complications in the Korean population. Patients were placed into one of four groups according to the dose of warfarin they received and the presence of bleeding complications: regular dose control, regular dose bleeding, low dose control, and low dose bleeding. Genotyping for CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3 was performed by the restriction fragment length polymorphism method for each patient and each study group. The measured internal normalized ratio (INR) in each dose group was similar even though the administered dosage was significantly different. A total of 66 patients were evaluated for CYP2C19 polymorphism. Among them 25 patients (37.9%) were homozygous wild type. Four patients (6.1%) had heterozygous mutations at both loci. Others had mutations on either the CYP2C19*2 or *3 locus. Higher genetic variation was observed in CYP2C19*2 than in CYP2C19*3 among Korean patients on warfarin therapy. Our data suggested that there is a higher incidence of bleeding complications in patients who have a higher allele frequency of CYP2C19. It was also revealed that the distribution of CYP2C19 polymorphism among Asian populations is more similar than of the distribution among Caucasian populations.

Abstract
We report a case of intolerance to warfarin dosing due to impaired drug metabolism in a patient with CYP2C9*3/*4. A 73-yr-old woman with atrial fibrilation was taking warfarin. She attained a high prothrombin time international normalized ratio (INR) at the standard doses during the induction of anticoagulation and extremely low dose of warfarin (6.5 mg/week) was finally chosen to reach the target INR. Genotyping for CYP2C9 revealed that this patient had a genotype CYP2C9*3/*4. This is the first Korean compound heterozygote for CYP2C9*3 and *4. This case suggests the clinical usefulness of pharmacogenetic testing for individualized dosage adjustments of warfarin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to determine the frequency of CYP2C9 alleles in Omani patients receiving warfarin and to correlate genotyping data with warfarin dosage. The Omani population has Asian and African ethnicities. METHODS CYP2C9 genotypes were determined by the polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare groups of continuous data for significance differences. RESULTS Genotyping data showed that 12.7 and 5.8% of the samples were heterozygous for the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles, respectively. The CYP2C9*2 allele frequency was 0.074 in our population. It was 0.029 for CYP2C9*3. CONCLUSION This is the first report on the presence of CYP2C9*2 allele homozygocity in any Asian or African population.

Abstract
Available data indicate that there are significant differences in individual susceptibility to lung cancer within the human population. It is believed to be underlie by inherited genetic predispositions related to the genetic polymorphism of several enzymes involved in the detoxification and xenobiotic metabolism. In this review, we collect and discuss the evidence reported up to date on the association between lung cancer and genetic polymorphism of cytochromes P450, N-acetyltransferase, glutathione S-transferases, microsomal epoxide hydrolase, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase, myeloperoxidase and glutathione peroxidase. All these genes might appear to be candidates for lung cancer susceptibility genes, nevertheless, the present state of the art still offers only a limited explanation of the link between such polymorphisms and increased risk of lung cancer.

Abstract
Coumarins are the mainstay of oral anticoagulation for the treatment and prophylaxis of thromboembolic disorders. They have a narrow therapeutic index and regular monitoring is therefore required to avoid serious adverse effects. There is wide interindividual variability in dosage requirements, which makes anticoagulation response unpredictable. Current dosing titrations are haphazard and inconvenient and poor initial control leads to morbidity, and occasional mortality, because of bleeding and further thromboembolism. Recent discoveries have helped to characterize the factors that contribute to the interindividual variability in responses to coumarins. Patient and environmental factors that affect anticoagulation response to coumarins include age, body size, dietary vitamin K status, concurrent disease and drug interactions. More recently, single nucleotide polymorphisms in the 2C9 isoform of cytochrome P450 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR) have been shown to make significant contributions to the variability in coumarin dosage requirements. Polymorphisms in other genes that mediate the actions of coumarins may also contribute to this variability. Racial and cultural differences influence dosage requirements, which can be explained, at least in part, by genetic and dietary factors. Incorporation of genetic and environmental factors could help in the prediction of more individualized loading and maintenance doses for safer anticoagulation therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE A decision matrix for identifying drugs for which pharmacogenetic drug monitoring (PDM) provides the greatest benefit in a Korean setting is described. SUMMARY We developed a decision matrix including the ethnic frequency of clinically relevant polymorphic cytochrome P-450 (CYP) enzymes, and the metabolic profiles and adverse drug reactions of drugs. Using the developed decision matrix based on the population allele frequencies of CYP enzymes, we identified potential candidates for PDM among the most commonly used drugs at Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH). Collectively, 17 of these drugs were largely metabolized by at least one polymorphic CYP enzyme. Pharmacogenetic information was used to identify CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6 as the major CYP enzymes of clinical importance for pharmacologic effect and safety in Koreans. The frequencies of poor and intermediate metabolizers among Koreans were 0% and 2.3-12% for CYP2C9, 12% and 42% for CYP2C19, and 0.44% and 28% for CYP2D6, respectively. The frequency of ultrarapid metabolizers of CYP2D6 was 2.28%. The decision matrix and pharmacogenetic information were used to identify seven drugs for PDM: warfarin, glimepiride, diazepam, amitriptyline, nortriptyline, codeine, and oxycodone. This approach can be applied to other institutional hospitals or other ethnic populations and would be helpful for advancing pharmacy practice. Further work is required to assess the practical and potential clinical relevance of pharmacogenetic variations on drugs of interest before the implementation of PDM. CONCLUSION A decision matrix helped identify drugs for which PDM provides the greatest potential benefit at one Korean hospital.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the frequencies of the variant alleles and the genotypes of CYP2C9 in a Korean population. METHODS Three hundred and fifty-eight healthy Korean subjects were studied. CYP2C9 alleles were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assays and direct sequencing assays. RESULTS The allele frequencies were 0.934 for CYP2C9*1, 0.060 for CYP2C9*3 and 0.006 for CYP2C9*13. The CYP2C9*2,*4,*5 and *11 alleles were not detected. The frequencies of the CYP2C9*1/*1, *1/*3 and *1/*13 genotypes were 0.869, 0.120 and 0.011, respectively. CONCLUSION The frequency of the CYP2C9*3 allele in the Korean population studied was significantly higher than reported elsewhere, and a novel allele, CYP2C9*13, was found at a frequency of 0.006 (95% confidence interval 0, 0.012). Only three genotypes of CYP2C9, CYP2C9*1/*1,*1/*3 and *1/*13 were observed in this Korean population.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms of drug metabolizing enzymes, such as cytochromes P450 (CYPs), play major roles in the variations of drug responsiveness in human. The aim of this study is to identify the high prevalence (minor allele frequencies >1%) of the abnormal metabolite alleles of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 in the Taiwanese population. The genotyping of the functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYPs were conducted by direct exon sequencing in 180 Taiwanese volunteers. Twenty-one unique SNPs including three newly identified SNPs were detected in the Taiwanese population. Six of the 21 SNPs in five genes showed frequencies more than 1%. The results indicated that it could be very useful and important in developing an inexpensive, convenient, and precise genotyping method for the high prevalence of CYPs metabolizing abnormal alleles in the Taiwanese population.

Abstract
Vitamin K antagonists (coumarins) are widely-used oral anticoagulants for the prevention of venous thromboembolism and strokes. Wide inter-individual variation in dose response and frequent bleeds characterize the initiation of coumarin therapy. Over the past 10 years both genetic and nongenetic determinants of coumarin dose response have been identified. A comprehensive pharmacogenetics approach to warfarin therapy has the potential to improve the safety and efficiency of warfarin initiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CYP2C9 is one of the major drug metabolizing enzymes for many drugs including warfarin, NSAIDs and losartan. It is polymorphic in many populations. Data on the distribution of CYP2C9 and the implication of CYP2C9 polymorphism in the Malaysian population is lacking. Our objectives were therefore to investigate the prevalence of CYP2C9 variants among unrelated healthy volunteers of Malays, Chinese and Indians in Malaysia. METHOD Deoxyribonucleic acid was extracted using standard lysis methods. Allele specific polymerase chain reaction was performed for determination of CYP2C9*1, *2, *3, *4 and *5 variants according to Z. Zainuddin, L.K. Teh, A.W.M. Suhaimi, M.Z. Salleh, R. Ismail (2003, Clinica Chimica Acta, 336, 97). RESULT The Chinese had the highest frequency of CYP2C9*1 (321/330, 97.27%), followed by the Malays and the Indians (402 of 420, 95.71% and 291 of 330, 88.18%, respectively). CYP2C9*2 was not found in the Chinese. CYP2C9*3 were detected in all the three races with the Indians having the highest frequency of CYP2C9*3 (9.7%). The Indians had a frequency of CYP2C9*2 and *3 similar to Tamilians and Caucasians. Two of the Indians had *2/*3 and one had *3/*3 genotypes and are likely to be slow metabolizers. No subject with CYP2C9*4 and *5 were detected in our populations. CONCLUSION CYP2C9*2 and *3 were identified in our population. Indians are similar to Caucasians in terms of CYP2C9 genotypes and thus may respond to CYP2C9 substrates differently when compared with the Malays and Chinese in Malaysia.

Abstract
The use of oral anticoagulants (OA) is problematic due to its association with hemorrhagic complications. OA metabolism relies on the CYP2C9 complex. Genetic variations compromising metabolic competence of this complex may explain the risk of excessive and hazardous anticoagulation. A pharmacogenetics-based approach to this issue could be beneficial for choosing adequate dose and duration of treatment, in addition to having a better understanding of pharmacological interactions to which OA are susceptible. However, evidence from several basic and clinical studies indicates that both a complicated system of regulation of expression of multiple genes and the influence of a wide variety of epigenetic factors could be responsible for adverse drug reactions associated with the use of OA. Emphasis on understanding the gene-environment interactions could attain new paths to facilitate the use of these important drugs in the quotidian clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Warfarin prevents thromboembolism in patients with prosthetic heart valvular replacement. Cytochrome P4502C9 (CYP2C9) is polymorphic in human and is principally responsible for the metabolism of warfarin. However, known CYP2C9 polymorphisms cannot entirely account for the low dose requirement of warfarin in Chinese-Taiwanese receiving mitral valve replacement. We screened a new polymorphism of CYP2C9 and investigated its role in warfarin sensitivity. METHODS We examined warfarin dose requirements in 239 Chinese-Taiwanese patients who had attended a cardiac surgery clinic in National Taiwan University Hospital. DNA samples were obtained from 106 Chinese-Taiwanese (37 patients and 69 unrelated healthy controls), and healthy control subjects of Caucasians (n=28) and African-Americans (n=28). Four out of those 37 patients were poor metabolizers of warfarin, and their DNA were subjected to sequencing analysis. Moreover, CYP2C9 genotyping analyses were performed using PCR-RFLP analysis. The chi2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to compare the differences of the allelic frequency and genotype. The association between warfarin dose requirement and genetic polymorphism of CYP2C9 was also analysed. RESULTS The mean daily warfarin dose was 3.11+/-1.62 mg for the maintenance of the international normalized ratio of 2 to 3 in 239 patients. A single nucleotide substitution from G to C was found in this study. This SNP, G-65/C, is in intron 3, 65 base pairs upstream of exon 4. The allelic frequencies of C-65 in healthy controls were 0.125, 0.058 and approximately 0 with respect to African-American, Chinese-Taiwanese and Caucasian, implying inter-ethnic variations of the C-65 allele. In addition, patients who were carrier of either the heterozygous or homozygous C-65 variant received half of the usual warfarin dose. CONCLUSION The novel intronic G-65/C mutation appears to be inter-racially different in allelic frequency, and that the anticoagulation was affected in response to warfarin sensitivity in Chinese-Taiwanese patients receiving mitral valve replacement.

Abstract
We report a case of intolerance to warfarin dosing due to impaired drug metabolism in a patient heterozygous for the CYP2C9*3 allele. A 30-year-old woman with an artificial cardiac pacemaker was taking warfarin to prevent thromboembolism. This patient had an extremely elevated international normalized ratio (INR) of prothrombin time (PT) following standard doses of warfarin and experienced difficulties during the induction of anticoagulation. Genotyping for CYP2C9 revealed that this patient was an intermediate metabolizer with genotype CYP2C9*1/*3. This case suggests the clinical usefulness of pharmacogenetic testing for individualized dosage adjustments of warfarin.

Abstract
AIMS We evaluated the involvement of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms 2C9 and 2C19 in chlorpropamide 2-hydroxylation in vitro and in chlorpropamide disposition in vivo. METHODS To identify CYP isoforms(s) that catalyse 2-hydroxylation of chlorpropamide, the incubation studies were conducted using human liver microsomes and recombinant CYP isoforms. To evaluate whether genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and/or CYP2C19 influence the disposition of chlorpropamide, a single oral dose of 250 mg chlorpropamide was administered to 21 healthy subjects pregenotyped for CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. RESULTS In human liver microsomal incubation studies, the formation of 2-hydroxychlorpropamide (2-OH-chlorpropamide), a major chlorpropamide metabolite in human, has been best described by a one-enzyme model with estimated K(m) and V(max) of 121.7 +/- 19.9 microm and 16.1 +/- 5.0 pmol min(-1) mg(-1) protein, respectively. In incubation studies using human recombinant CYP isoforms, however, 2-OH-chlorpropamide was formed by both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 with similar intrinsic clearances (CYP2C9 vs. CYP2C19: 0.26 vs. 0.22 microl min(-1) nmol(-1) protein). Formation of 2-OH-chlorpropamide in human liver microsomes was significantly inhibited by sulfaphenazole, but not by S-mephenytoin, ketoconazole, quinidine, or furafylline. In in vivo clinical trials, eight subjects with the CYP2C9*1/*3 genotype exhibited significantly lower nonrenal clearance [*1/*3 vs.*1/*1: 1.8 +/- 0.2 vs. 2.4 +/- 0.1 ml h(-1) kg(-1), P < 0.05; 95% confidence interval (CI) on the difference 0.2, 1.0] and higher metabolic ratios (of chlorpropamide/2-OH-chlorpropamide in urine: *1/*3 vs.*1/*1: 1.01 +/- 0.19 vs. 0.56 +/- 0.08, P < 0.05; 95% CI on the difference - 0.9, - 0.1) than did 13 subjects with CYP2C9*1/*1 genotype. In contrast, no differences in chlorpropamide pharmacokinetics were observed for subjects with the CYP2C19 extensive metabolizer vs. poor metabolizer genotypes. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that chlorpropamide disposition is principally determined by CYP2C9 activity in vivo, although both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 have a catalysing activity of chlorpropamide 2-hydroxylation pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is considerable variability in the individual pharmaceutical dosages required to achieve optimal therapeutic effects, which may be due to environmental or genetic factors. The objective of this study was to test the presence of the CYP2C9*3 allelic variant in the Chinese population and to investigate the association of this variant with both metabolism and therapeutic efficacy of irbesartan on essential hypertension. METHODS In this study, we enrolled 711 subjects from Taihu County and 376 subjects from Dongzhi County in Anhui Province, China. All subjects received a single oral dose of 150 mg irbesartan daily for 28 days. The plasma concentration of irbesartan at 24 h after dosing on the 27th day and at 6 h after dosing on the 28th day was detected using fluorescence-high-performance liquid chromatography. CYP2C9 genotypes were determined using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS No CYP2C9*2 allele was found in 235 Chinese samples and was removed from further study. The mean frequency of the CYP2C9*3 allele was 3.65%, while no CYP2C9*3/*3 genotype was detected. Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that the CYP2C9*3 allele carriers had significantly higher irbesartan concentrations in plasma at 6 h (Taihu: P < 0.0001; Dongzhi: P = 0.03) and 24 h (Taihu: P < 0.0001; Dongzhi: P = 0.00013) after dosing. No significant association was found between the CYP2C9*3 allelic variant and the therapeutic effect of irbesartan on essential hypertension. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that the CYP2C9*3 plays an important role in the metabolism of irbesartan and/or is in linkage disequilibrium with another potential CYP2C9 allele, both of which possibly modify the pharmacokinetics of irbesartan.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) shows genetic polymorphism with high interethnic variation, but no report has addressed the genetic polymorphism in the Vietnamese population. In the present study, the distribution of 2 common allelic variations of CYP2C9 was investigated in Vietnamese Kinh population, a major ethnic group in Vietnam. Genomic DNA from 157 Vietnamese subjects was amplified by polymerase chain reaction, and the presence of CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 allelic variants was determined by pyrosequencing. Among 157 Vietnamese subjects, no subject with the CYP2C9*2 allele was detected, but 7 subjects were heterozygous for the CYP2C9*3 allele. The allele frequency of CYP2C9*3 was 2.2% in the Vietnamese Kinh population. This genotype distribution was well correlated with previous reports suggesting no occurrence of CYP2C9*2 in Asians. These results suggest that CYP2C9*2 may be absent in Vietnamese Kinh population and that CYP2C9*3 is major allelic variant that causes interindividual variation of drug responses to CYP2C9 substrate drugs in the Vietnamese Kinh population.

Abstract
AIM To study the relationship between P450 2C9 genetic polymorphisms and the pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide in Chinese subjects. METHODS P450 2C9 genotype was determined by oligonucleotide microarray. Using tolbutamide as a probe of P450 2C9 activity, P450 2C9 phenotype in 20 healthy individuals expressing the P450 2C9*1/*1, *1/*3 and *3/*3 genotypes were evaluated. After administration of 500 mg tolbutamide, plasma and urine samples were collected from each subject over a 24-h period. The tolbutamide and its metabolites' concentrations in human plasma and urine were determined by solid-phase extraction and HPLC. RESULTS Tolbutamide AUC0-->infinity increased by 20 and 116%, and T(1/2) increased by 60 and 813%, respectively, in subjects expressing the P4502C9*1/*3 and *3/*3 genotypes compared with *1/*1 subjects. Reductions in tolbutamide oral clearance (68 and 11%) and formation clearance (39 and 3%) were detected in the *1/*3 and *3/*3 individuals, respectively, compared with */*1 subjects. CONCLUSION The P450 2C9 activity was significantly reduced in *1 heterozygotes compared with *1 homozygotes, and the metabolism of tolbutamide was more severely impaired in *3/*3 individuals compared with those expressing *1/*3. Using tolbutamide as a P450 2C9 probe, P450 2C9 genotype was the major determinant of P450 2C9 phenotype.

Abstract
CYP2C9 is a major cytochrome P450 enzyme that is involved in the metabolic clearance of a wide variety of therapeutic agents, including nonsteroidal antiinflammatories, oral anticoagulants, and oral hypoglycemics. Disruption of CYP2C9 activity by metabolic inhibition or pharmacogenetic variability underlies many of the adverse drug reactions that are associated with the enzyme. CYP2C9 is also the first human P450 to be crystallized, and the structural basis for its substrate and inhibitor selectivity is becoming increasingly clear. New, ultrapotent inhibitors of CYP2C9 have been synthesised that aid in the development of quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models to facilitate drug redesign, and extensive resequencing of the gene and studies of its regulation will undoubtedly help us understand interindividual variability in drug response and toxicity controlled by this enzyme.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several reports of CYP2C genetic polymorphism demonstrate its potential clinical role in determining both inter-individual and inter-ethnic differences in drug efficacy. We estimated the distribution of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 common variants in the Bolivian population (a South American population), and compared these data with those from Asian, African, Caucasian and Oceanian populations. METHODS Genomic DNA was obtained from 778 unrelated healthy volunteers from Bolivia. The genotypic status of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 was determined by means of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS Allelic and genotypic frequencies of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 were determined for the Bolivian population, and comparison of the data with other ethnic groups revealed a lower CYP2C9*2 frequency (4.8%) than in Caucasians, but a higher frequency than in Asians; frequencies of CYP2C9*3 (3.0%) and CYP2C9 (0.4%) poor metabolizers (PMs) were similar to those seen in Asian populations. Frequencies of CYP2C19*2 (7.8%), CYP2C19*3 (0.1%), and CYP2C19 PMs (1.0%) in the Bolivian population were for the most part lower than in Caucasian, Asian, Oceanian and African populations. CONCLUSION This is the first study to investigate a South American population for genetic polymorphism in the CYP2C subfamily. The Bolivian population differs from most other ethnic groups in the incidence of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 common variants that might be influenced by its admixture characteristics.

Abstract
To search for the optimal dosage of phenytoin in patients with epilepsy based on the metabolic activities of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms, a total of 169 patients receiving phenytoin treatment for more than 1 month were recruited. Phenytoin concentration, serum albumin, liver function tests, and renal function tests were measured. CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-RFLP analysis, and NONMEM models were built to evaluate factors that would affect phenytoin metabolism. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to genotyping results (G1 to G5). Compared with extensive metabolizers in both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 (G1), the Vmax (mg/kg/d) was 8.29% and 36.96% lower in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (G3) and CYP2C9 poor metabolizers (G4), respectively. For the patient who was identified as a poor metabolizer in both CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 (G5), the Vmax was 45.75% lower than that of G1. In respect to Km (mg/L), it was 15.09% higher in G3 and 27.36% higher in G4 compared with that in G1. The Km of G5 was 91.71% higher than that of G1. The results revealed that the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms have dramatic effects on the population pharmacokinetic parameters of phenytoin, especially for CYP2C9. Based on the Vm and Km values obtained in this study, the recommended dose ranges for G1, G2, G3, G4, and G5 patients would be 5.5-7, 5-7, 5-6, 3-4, and 2-3 mg/kg/d, respectively.

Abstract
AIMS Fungal infection is a significant comorbidity in patients with diabetes mellitus, and ketoconazole, an antifungal agent, causes a number of drug interactions with coadministered drugs. Rosiglitazone is a novel thiazolidinedione antidiabetic drug, mainly metabolized by CYP2C8 and to a lesser extent CYP2C9. We investigated the possible effect of ketoconazole on the pharmacokinetics of rosiglitazone in humans. METHODS Ten healthy Korean male volunteers were treated twice daily for 5 days with 200 mg ketoconazole or with placebo, using a randomized, open-label, two-way crossover study. On day 5, a single dose of 8 mg rosiglitazone was administered orally, and plasma rosiglitazone concentrations were measured. RESULTS Ketoconazole increased the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve for rosiglitazone by 47%[P = 0.0003; 95% confidence interval (CI) 23, 70] and the mean elimination half-life from 3.55 to 5.50 h (P = 0.0003; 95% CI in difference 1.1, 2.4). The peak plasma concentration of rosiglitazone was increased by ketoconazole treatment by 17% (P = 0.03; 95% CI 5, 29). The apparent oral clearance of rosiglitazone decreased by 28% after ketoconazole treatment (P = 0.0005; 95% CI 18, 38). CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that ketoconazole affected the disposition of rosiglitazone in humans, probably by the inhibition of CYP2C8 and CYP2C9, leading to increasing rosiglitazone concentrations that could increase the efficacy of rosiglitazone or its adverse events.

Abstract
Interethnic variability in pharmacokinetics can cause unexpected outcomes such as therapeutic failure, adverse effects, and toxicity in subjects of different ethnic origin undergoing medical treatment. It is important to realize that both genetic and environmental factors can lead to these differences among ethnic groups. The International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) published a guidance to facilitate the registration of drugs among ICH regions (European Union, Japan, the United States) by recommending a framework for evaluating the impact of ethnic factors on a drug's effect, as well as its efficacy and safety at a particular dosage and dosage regimen. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetic differences between East Asians and Caucasians. Differences in metabolism between East Asians and Caucasians are common, especially in the activity of several phase I enzymes such as CYP2D6 and the CYP2C subfamily. Before drug therapy, identification of either the genotype and/or the phenotype for these enzymes may be of therapeutic value, particularly for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index. Furthermore, these differences are relevant for international drug approval when regulatory agencies must decide if they accept results from clinical trials performed in other parts of the world.

Abstract
Interethnic differences in cytochrome P450 polymorphism might be responsible, at least in part, for the variations in drug disposition between ethnic groups. Of the various CYP2C9 alleles, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 have been reported to have altered catalytic activities compared to the wild-type CYP2C9*1. The present study is aimed at analysing the CYP2C9 polymorphism in a Mexican-American compared with a Spanish population. Differences between the two populations of healthy volunteers, Mexican-Americans (n=98 subjects) and Spaniards (n=102 subjects), regarding the CYP2C9 allele frequencies have been found. CYP2C9 genotypes among the studied Mexican-American population are in equilibrium. The 95% CI were, respectively, 0.81-0.90 for CYP2C9*1 (n=169), 0.05-0.13 for CYP2C9*2 (n=16) and 0.031-0.10 for CYP2C9*3 (n=11). CYP2C9*4, *5 and *6 were found in none of the studied subjects. The frequency of CYP2C9*2 was lower among Mexican-Americans compared to Spaniards (P<0.05). The obtained frequency of CYP2C9 alleles is compatible with the genomic assembly of the constitutive potential ethnic origin of this population, and supports the need of pharmacogenetic studies for optimizing the recommended drug dosages to Mexican-Americans.

Abstract
Research into the relationship between genetics and drug response has focused on polymorphisms in genes that encode drug-metabolizing enzymes, particularly the genes of cytochrome P450 superfamily 2, which affect the clearance of the anticoagulant warfarin, proton pump inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, and many other clinically relevant drugs. Much of this work has targeted East Asians, a genetically distinguishable and populous group. Researchers have identified polymorphisms that inactivate gene function, compared polymorphism frequencies in East-Asian and Caucasian populations, and determined the effects on the pharmacokinetic parameters of drugs. Detection in an individual of polymorphisms known to inactivate a drug-metabolizing enzyme is predictive of poor metabolism of drugs processed by that pathway, which itself may be predictive of an atypical drug response. Genetic tests can be used to screen for individuals with poor metabolizer phenotypes, with the ultimate goal of predicting the clinical effects of drugs.

Abstract
Cytochrome P4502C9(CYP2C9) is largely responsible for terminating anticoagulant effect by hydroxylation of S-warfarin to inactive metabolites. Mutations in the CYP2C9 gene result in the expression of allelic variants, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 with reduced enzyme activity compared to wild type CYP2C9*1. The aim of this study was to assess relationship between requirement of warfarin dose and polymorphism in CYP2C9 in Korean population. Patients on warfarin therapy for longer than 1 year were included from July 1999 to December 2000 and categorized as one of four groups; regular dose non-bleeding, regular dose bleeding, low dose non-bleeding and low dose bleeding. Low dose was defined as less than 10 mg/week for 3 consecutive monthly follow-ups. Bleeding complications included minor and major bleedings. Blood samples were processed for DNA extraction, genotyping and sequencing to detect polymorphism in CYP2C9. Demographic data, warfarin dose per week, prothrombin time (INR), indications and co-morbid diseases were assessed for each group. Total 90 patients on warfarin were evaluated; The low dose group has taken warfarin 7.6 +/- 1.7 mg/week, which was significantly lower than 31.4 +/- 0.9 mg/week in the regular dose group (p<0.0001). The measured INR in the low dose group was similar to that of the regular dose group (2.3 +/- 0.7 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.6, p=0.9). Even though there was a higher possibility of CYP2C9 variation in the low dose group, no polymorphism in CYP2C9 was detected. All patients were homozygous C416 in exon 3 for CYP2C9*2 and A1061 in exon 7 for CYP2C9*3. The DNA sequencing data confirmed the homozygous C416 and A1061 alleles. In conclusion, polymorphism in CYP2C9 is not a critical factor for assessing warfarin dose requirement and risk of bleeding complications in a Korean population.

Abstract
Cytochrome p450 (CYP) 2C9 hydroxylates about 16% of drugs in current clinical use. Of special interest are those with a narrow therapeutic index, such as S-warfarin, tolbutamide and phenytoin, where impairment in CYP2C9 metabolic activity might cause difficulties in dose adjustment as well as toxicity. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the CYP2C9 gene have increasingly been recognized as determinants of the metabolic phenotype that underlies interindividual and ethnic differences. Apart from the wild-type protein CYP2C9*1 at least five allelic variants produce allozymes with reduced or deficient metabolic activity. Among white populations only CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 variants are of significance, with allelic frequencies of 0.08-0.14 and 0.04-0.16, respectively. In contrast, in Africans (African-Americans and Ethiopians) and Asians both variants are much less frequent (0.005-0.04), and CYP2C9*2 has not yet been detected in Asians. CYP2C9*4 has been exclusively identified in Japanese patients, and CYP2C9*5 and *6 were only found among African-Americans with a low allelic frequency of 0.017 and 0.006, respectively. Furthermore in Japanese a CYP2C9 promotor variant of four linked SNPs was correlated with reduced intrinsic clearance of phenytoin in vitro. Subjects who are carriers of one or more variant alleles may be at risk for adverse drug reactions/toxicities when prescribed drugs extensively metabolized by CYP2C9.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study analyzed the frequency of CYP2C9 variant alleles and evaluated the impact of CYP2C9 genotype on diclofenac metabolism in a Spanish population. METHODS Diclofenac hydroxylation capacity was studied in a population of 102 healthy volunteers. After a single oral dose of 50 mg diclofenac the 0- to 8-h urinary concentrations of diclofenac and its main metabolites, 4'-hydroxy (OH), 3'-OH and 5-OH diclofenac were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. CYP2C9 genotyping for the variant alleles CYP2C9*2 and *3 was carried out with PCR-RFLP. RESULTS The frequencies of CYP2C9*1, *2, and *3 alleles were 0.74 (95%CI: 0.68-0.80), 0.16 (95%CI: 0.11-0.21) and 0.10 (95%CI: 0.06-0.15), respectively, among the 102 Spaniards studied. The diclofenac/4'-OH diclofenac urinary ratio, but not the diclofenac/3'-OH diclofenac and diclofenac/5-OH diclofenac ratios, was related to CYP2C9 genotype. The diclofenac/4'-OH ratio was significantly higher among subjects with CYP2C9*1/*3 (0.83+/-0.4, n=14, 95% CI for the difference: 0.02-0.4) and CYP2C9*2/*3 (1.10+/-0.5, n=4, 95% CI for the difference: 0.16-0.8) genotypes compared to CYP2C9*1/*1 (0.62+/-0.3, n=59) and approximately threefold higher (1.8) in the only subject homozygous for CYP2C9*3 variant. CONCLUSIONS The frequencies of CYP2C9*1, *2, and *3 alleles in the Spanish population reported here were similar to those found in the previously studied white European populations, and different of the previously reported in another Spanish population. CYP2C9*3 allele seems to influence the 4'-hydroxylation of diclofenac, although there is a large overlapping in the urinary metabolic ratio between the genotype groups studied

Abstract
AIM: Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is a polymorphic enzyme responsible for the metabolism of a large number of clinically important drugs. Individuals with mutant enzymes may risk serious side effects under routine therapy with certain drugs metabolized by CYP2C9. In order to facilitate the detection of the known SNPs of CYP2C9, an allele-specific oligonucleotide (ASO) based microarray was made.
METHODS: An oligonucleotide microarray was made to facilitate the SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) screening and was applied for the detection of CYP2C9 polymorphism in 62 high blood pressure (HBP) patients who received Irbesartan for treatment. Part of the genotyping results was confirmed by direct sequencing. And the relation between CYP2C9 polymorphism and therapeutic outcome of Irbesartan was statistically analyzed.
RESULTS: Heterozygous alleles of CYP2C9*1/*3 were found in 7 out of 62 subjects. No mutant alleles of CYP2C9*2, *4 and *5 and no homozygous mutant alleles were detected. The 7 heterozygous CYP2C9*1/*3 and 13 random wild type DNA samples were subjected to direct sequencing with purified PCR products and same genotyping results were obtained with the 20 DNA samples. There was no significant difference in the odds of effectiveness of Irbesartan between the wild type (normal) group and CYP2C9*1/*3 (mutant) group (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: The oligonucleotide microarray made in this study is a reliable assay for detecting the CYP2C9 known alleles and the heterozygous CYP2C9*1/*3 has no significant effects on the therapeutic outcome of Irbesartan.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is a polymorphic enzyme responsible for the metabolism of different drugs with low therapeutic index such as oral anticoagulants. CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 are two single nucleotide polymorphic allelic variants. The frequency of these alleles in different ethnic populations is extremely variable. In this study, we compared the frequencies of CYP2C9 allelic variants among 394 Chinese living in Shanghai to 151 French Caucasians living in Paris. The allelic frequencies of CYP2C9 variants of the Chinese and the French subjects were 0.963, 0.001, 0.036 and 0.77, 0.15, 0.08 for CYP2C9*1, CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, respectively. Chinese CYP2C9*3 allelic frequency was twice as lower as the French subjects, but three times higher than Korean (0.036 vs. 0.011). The CYP2C9*2 allele could be detected in only one Chinese subject, whereas it represented the major allelic variant in French Caucasians. The low frequency of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 allelic variants in Chinese subjects does not justify their detection in clinical practice, unlike French Caucasians.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the influence of age and cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 genotype on the steady-state disposition of the standard NSAID diclofenac and the new COX-2 selective inhibitor celecoxib, both of which are metabolised by the polymorphically expressed CYP2C9. DESIGN Double-blind randomised crossover study under steady-state conditions. SUBJECTS 12 young (age 32 +/- 5 years, bodyweight 71 +/- 12kg; mean +/- SD) and 12 elderly (68 +/- 2 years, 82 +/- 15kg) healthy, drug-free, nonsmoking Caucasians of both sexes. METHODS All subjects received oral celecoxib (200mg twice daily) and diclofenac (75mg twice daily) for 15 days separated by a drug-free interval of at least 3 weeks. Following the last morning dose, multiple blood samples were taken for 25 hours. Concentrations of celecoxib and diclofenac were measured by specific and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography. Identification of CYP2C9 genotype was performed by genomic DNA sequencing. Pharmacokinetic parameters for total and unbound drugs were individually analysed by noncompartmental techniques. RESULTS For diclofenac, area under the concentration-time curve over the dosage interval (AUC(tau)) was larger in young subjects (3.2 +/- 1.0 mg * h/L) than in older individuals (2.4 +/- 0.4 mg * h/L; p < 0.05). As the terminal half-life (t((1/2)Z)) was very similar in both groups (3.9 +/- 4.4 vs 3.5 +/- 3.3 hours), either less complete absorption in the elderly or their higher bodyweight could account for the difference. For celecoxib, AUC(tau) (5.8 +/- 1.7 vs 5.6 +/- 2.3 mg * h/L) and t((1/2)z) (11.8 +/- 8.7 vs 11.2 +/- 2.9 hours) were almost identical in young and older subjects. Plasma protein binding of both NSAIDs was unaffected by age, and apparent oral clearances for unbound drugs were not different between the two groups of healthy subjects. When considering the genotype of all individuals (CYP2C9*1/*1, n = 10; CYP2C9*1/*2, n = 6; CYP2C9*2/*2, n = 2; CYP2C9*1/*3, n = 4; CYP2C9*3/*3, n = 1), no association with any pharmacokinetic parameter of either drug was apparent. Moreover, there was no significant correlation between the AUC values of celecoxib and diclofenac. CONCLUSIONS Age and CYP2C9 genotype do not significantly affect the steady-state disposition of celecoxib and diclofenac. This would indicate that both drugs need no dosage reduction in the elderly (at least up to 75 years) and that, besides CYP2C9, additional CYP species contribute to the elimination of both agents.

Cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2C9 CYP2C9 is a polymorphically expressed enzyme responsible for the metabolism of several clinically important drugs, some with a low therapeutic index. This review summarizes the structure-function relationship of the CYP2C9 promoter and coding regions, known polymorphisms, the functional significance of various CYP2C9 alleles in vitro and in vivo, and their population frequencies. In addition, possible molecular mechanisms underlying ethnic variability in the metabolism of CYP2C9 substrate drugs are discussed.

Abstract
AIMS The aim was to develop a fast detection method for the polymorphic alleles related to impaired CYP2C9-mediated metabolism. METHODS CYP2C9 genotypes were identified in 118 DNA samples using real-time PCR (LightCycler) followed by melting curve analysis. All samples were re-tested by validated PCR-RFLP methodology. RESULTS The concordance between the two methods was 100% for two variant alleles. The frequencies of CYP2C9*1 (wild type), CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 (with 95% confidence intervals) were 0.81(0.05), 0.14(0.04) and 0.05(0.03), respectively, and are similar to those observed in other Caucasian populations. CONCLUSIONS This assay is simple and rapid and may be used for CYP2C9-genotyping in a clinical setting.

Abstract
The ability of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) to inhibit phenytoin p-hydroxylation was evaluated in vitro by incubation studies of human liver microsomes and cDNA-expressed cytochrome p450s (p450s). The TCAs tested were amitriptyline, imipramine, nortriptyline, and desipramine. Amitriptyline and imipramine strongly and competitively inhibited phenytoin p-hydroxylation in microsomal incubations (estimated K(i) values of 5.2 and 15.5 micro M, respectively). In contrast, nortriptyline and desipramine produced only weak inhibition. In the incubation study using cDNA-expressed P450s, both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 catalyzed phenytoin p-hydroxylation, whereas TCAs inhibited only the CYP2C19 pathway. All of the TCAs tested inhibited CYP2D6-catalyzed dextromethorphan-O-demethylation competitively, with estimated K(i) values of 31.0, 28.6, 7.9, and 12.5 micro M, respectively. The tertiary amine TCAs, amitriptyline and imipramine, also inhibited CYP2C19-catalyzed S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation (estimated K(i) of 37.7 and 56.8 micro M, respectively). The secondary amine TCAs, nortriptyline and desipramine, however, showed minimal inhibition of CYP2C19 (estimated IC(50) of 600 and 685 micro M, respectively). None of the TCAs tested produced remarkable inhibition of any other p450 isoforms. These results suggest that TCAs inhibit both CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 and that the interaction between TCAs and phenytoin involves inhibition of CYP2C19-catalyzed phenytoin p-hydroxylation.

Abstract
AIMS The goal of this study was to determine the frequencies of important allelic variants of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2E1 and DPYD in the Egyptian population and compare them with the frequencies in other ethnic populations. METHODS Genotyping of CYP2C9 (*2 and *3), CYP2C19 (*2 and *3), c2 variant of CYP2E1 and DPYD alleles (*2 A-*6 ) was carried out in a total of 247 unrelated Egyptian subjects. An allele-specific fluorogenic 5' nuclease chain reaction assay was applied for detection of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 variants. Other variants of the CYP2E1 and DPYD genes were determined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and allele-specific PCR based assays. RESULTS CYP2C9 allele frequencies in 247 Egyptian subjects were 0.820 for CYP2C9*1, 0.120 for CYP2C9*2 and 0.060 for CYP2C9*3. For CYP2C19, the frequencies of the wild type (CYP2C19*1) and the nonfunctional (*2 and *3) alleles were 0.888, 0.110 and 0.002, respectively. CYP2C19*3, which is considered an Asian mutation, was detected in one subject (0.40%) who was heterozygous (*1/*3). Two subjects (0.80%) were homozygous for *2/*2, while no compound heterozygotes (*2/*3) or homozygotes for *3 were detected. For CYP2E1, only four subjects (1.70%) had the rare c2 variant, expressed heterozygously, giving an allele frequency of 0.009. Five variants of DPYD were analysed, with no splice sites (*2 A) or DeltaC1897 (*3) found in this population. The frequencies of other variants were 0.028, 0.115 and 0.090 for *4, *5 and *6, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Comparing our data with that obtained in several Caucasian, African-American and Asian populations, we found that Egyptians resemble Caucasians with regard to allelic frequencies of the tested variants of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2E1 and DPYD. Our results may help in better understanding the molecular basis underlying ethnic differences in drug response, and contribute to improved individualization of drug therapy in the Egyptian population.

Abstract
The discovery of six distinct polymorphisms in the genetic sequence encoding for the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) protein has stimulated numerous investigations in an attempt to characterize their population distribution and metabolic activity. Since the CYP2C9*1, *2 and *3 alleles were discovered first, they have undergone more thorough investigation than the recently identified *4, *5 and *6 alleles. Population distribution data suggest that the variant *2 and *3 alleles are present in approximately 35% of Caucasian individuals; however, these alleles are significantly less prevalent in African-American and Asian populations. In-vitro data have consistently demonstrated that the CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles are associated with significant reductions in intrinsic clearance of a variety of 2C9 substrates compared with CYP2C9*1; however, the degree of these reductions appear to be highly substrate-dependent. In addition, multiple in-vivo investigations and clinical case reports have associated genotypes expressing the CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles with significant reductions in both the metabolism and daily dose requirements of selected CYP2C9 substrates. Individuals expressing these variant genotypes also appear to be significantly more susceptible to adverse events with the narrow therapeutic index agents warfarin and phenytoin, particularly during the initiation of therapy. These findings have subsequently raised numerous questions regarding the potential clinical utility of genotyping for CYP2C9 prior to initiation of therapy with these agents. However, further clinical investigations evaluating the metabolic consequences in individuals expressing the CYP2C9*2, *3, *4, *5, or *6 alleles are required before large-scale clinical genotyping can be recommended.

Abstract
Several recent in-vitro data have revealed that CYP2C19, in addition to CYP2C9, is also involved in the 4-methylhydroxylation of tolbutamide. We evaluated the relative contribution of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on the disposition of blood glucose lowering response to tolbutamide in normal healthy Korean subjects in order to reappraise tolbutamide as a selective in-vivo probe substrate of CYP2C9 activity. A single oral dose of tolbutamide (500 mg) or placebo was administered to 18 subjects in a single-blind, randomized, crossover study with a 2-week washout period. Twelve subjects (of whom six were CYP2C19 extensive metabolizer (EM) and six were CYP2C19 poor metabolizer (PM) genotype) were of the homozygous wild-type CYP2C9*1 genotype; the other six subjects were of the CYP2C9*1/*3 and CYP2C19 EM genotype. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from plasma and urine concentrations of tolbutamide and 4-hydroxytolbutamide. Serum glucose concentrations were measured before and after oral intake of 100 g dextrose. In subjects heterozygous for the CYP2C9*3 allele, C(max) and AUC of tolbutamide were significantly greater and the plasma half-life significantly longer than those in homozygous CYP2C9*1 subjects. No pharmacokinetic differences were found between CYP2C19 EM and PM genotype subjects. The estimated AUC of the increase in serum glucose after oral intake of 100 g dextrose was 2.7-fold higher in subjects with the wild-type CYP2C9 genotype than in those with CYP2C9*1/*3, but CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism did not alter the blood glucose lowering effect of tolbutamide. The plasma AUC of 4-hydroxytolbutamide and the ratio of 4-hydroxytolbutamide/tolbutamide did not differ significantly between CYP2C19 PM and EM genotype subjects, while these parameters were about twice as high in subjects with the wild-type CYP2C9 genotype than in heterozygous CYP2C9*3 subjects (P < 0.05). Our results strongly suggest that the disposition and hypoglycemic effect of tolbutamide are affected mainly by CYP2C9 genetic polymorphism, but not by CYP2C19 polymorphism. The in-vivo contribution of CYP2C19 to tolbutamide 4-methylhydroxylation appears to be minor in humans. This suggests that, at least in vivo, tolbutamide remains a selective probe for measuring CYP2C9 activity in humans.

Abstract
CYP2C9 is the major P450 2C enzyme in human liver and contributes to the metabolism of a number of clinically important substrate drugs. This polymorphically expressed enzyme has been studied in Caucasian, Asian, and to some extent in African American populations, but little is known about the genetic variation in Native American populations. We therefore determined the 2C9*2 (Arg144Cys) and 2C9*3 (Ile359Leu) allele frequencies in 153 Native Canadian Indian (CNI) and 151 Inuit subjects by PCR-RFLP techniques. We also present genotyping data for two reference populations, 325 Caucasian (white North American) and 102 Chinese subjects. Genotyping analysis did not reveal any 2C9*4 alleles in the CNI, Inuit, Caucasian, or Chinese individuals. The 2C9*2 allele appears to be absent in Chinese and Inuit populations, but was present in CNI and Caucasian subjects at frequencies of 0.03 and 0.080.15, respectively. The 2C9*3 allele was not detected in the Inuit group, but occured in the CNI group (f = 0.06) at a frequency comparable to that of other ethnic groups. This group of Inuit individuals are the first population in which no 2C9*2 or *3 alleles have been detected so far. Therefore, these alleles may be extremely rare or absent, and unless other novel polymorphisms exist in this Inuit group one would not anticipate any CYP2C9 poor metabolizer subjects among this population.Key words: CYP2C9, polymorphism, genotyping, ethnic diversity.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) often are prescribed to patients who are taking concomitant drugs. Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors (coxibs) rofecoxib and celecoxib are highly selective inhibitors of COX-2, differentiating them from nonselective NSAIDs, which substantially inhibit both COX-1 and COX-2. Like nonselective NSAIDs, coxibs are hepatically metabolized: rofecoxib primarily by reduction by cytosolic enzymes and celecoxib by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme system. Because rofecoxib is not significantly metabolized by CYP, it has fewer confirmed or potential drug interactions than celecoxib. However, potent inducers of CYP, such as rifampin, may decrease rofecoxib concentrations because of induction of general hepatic metabolic activity. Celecoxib is metabolized by CYP2C9 and may be increased or decreased by CYP2C9 modifiers. It also inhibits CYP2D6 and may affect concentrations of CYP2D6 substrates. Similar to NSAIDs, many pharmacodynamic interactions involving coxibs are related to inhibition of production of renal prostaglandins. However, coxibs have no antiplatelet activity and may be preferred to NSAIDs in patients receiving antithrombotic therapy. Nonetheless, when a potential for an interaction exists, standard monitoring is recommended when starting or discontinuing a coxib. Due to lack of data to support these interactions, which are primarily theoretical, additional studies are necessary to establish the drug interaction profiles of coxibs.
