ABCB1 polymorphisms predict imatinib response in chronic myeloid leukemia patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2014; 15:127-34. [PMID: 25245580 DOI: 10.1038/tpj.2014.54] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2014] [Revised: 07/18/2014] [Accepted: 08/13/2014] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Imatinib mesylate, a competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is considered the first-line therapy drug for Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B (MDR/TAP), member 1 gene (ABCB1/MDR1), c.1236C>T, c.2677G>T/A and c.3435C>T, have been shown to affect cellular transport/metabolism of imatinib. The associations between these SNPs and imatinib response in CML patients have been widely evaluated, but the results were inconsistent. To derive a conclusive assessment of the associations, we performed a meta-analysis by combining data from a total of 12 reports including 1826 patients. The results showed that the 2677G allele or 3435T allele predicted a worse response to imatinib in CML patients, whereas 1236CC genotype was associated with better response in CML patients from Asian region. In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that c.1236C>T, c.2677G>T/A and c.3435C>T can be served as predictive markers for the therapeutical use of imatinib in CML patients.

Relationship between ABCB1 polymorphisms, thromboelastography and risk of bleeding events in clopidogrel-treated patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Thromb Res 2014; 134:970-5. [PMID: 25217066 DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2014.08.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2014] [Revised: 06/19/2014] [Accepted: 08/19/2014] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study sought to investigate the relationship of polymorphisms in ABCB1 and the predictive value of thromboelastography (TEG) on bleeding risk in clopidogrel-treated patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS 467 consecutive patients with STEMI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. Twenty tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selected from ABCB1 gene and CYP2C19*2, *3, *17 were detected by the ligase detection reaction. Platelet reactivity was assessed by TEG. The follow-up period was 12months. RESULTS By receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the TEG platelet mapping assay value of ADP inhibition had the best predictive value of bleeding academic research consortium definition (BARC) ≥ 3b bleedings, yielding an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.707 (95% CI 0.662-0.749, p=0.009; cut-off value > 93.4%). ADP inhibition can also predict BARC ≥ 3 bleedings with an AUC of 0.594 (95% CI 0.546-0.640, p = 0.05; cut-off value > 92.5%). After adjustment for established risk factors of bleeding including the gain of function CYP2C19*17 allele, age, female gender, renal function, the multivariable logistic regression model demonstrated that ADP inhibition > 92.5% (OR 2.247, 95%CI 1.082-4.665, P=0.03), carriage of rs1045642 (OR 2.943, 95%CI 1.195-7.247, P = 0.019) and rs7779562 (OR 0.453, 95%CI 0.219-0.936, P = 0.032) were independent predictors of BARC ≥ 3 bleedings. These associations were validated in a second cohort of 504 STEMI patients. CONCLUSIONS In STEMI patients treated with clopidogrel after PCI, the ABCB1 tag SNP rs1045642 is associated with higher risk of bleedings while rs7779562 is associated with lower bleeding risk, and ADP inhibition in TEG has a predictive value of bleedings.

Pathol Res Pract 2014; 210:872-8. [PMID: 25236528 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2014.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2014] [Revised: 07/18/2014] [Accepted: 08/08/2014] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
One of the most common malignant diseases, both worldwide and in Poland, is gastric cancer. The pathogenesis of gastric cancer development is not entirely clear. Next to the environmental risk factors, such as Helicobacter pylori infection or dietary habits, the host genetic factors as predispositions to gastric cancer development are discussed. A transmembrane protein that could be associated with predisposition to cancer development is P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Physiologically, P-gp is present in normal tissue of the gastrointestinal tract, where it plays a protective role by transporting xenobiotics from a cell into extracellular environment. P-gp is encoded by the highly polymorphic ABCB1 gene. The most frequent polymorphisms at positions 1236, 2677, and 3435 may affect both the function and amount of protein, thereby leading to a loss of its physiological function, which could increase the predisposition to development of many diseases, including cancer. In this study, the potential significance of the ABCB1 gene in the development and progression of gastric cancer was evaluated. In 19 tissue samples collected from patients with gastric cancer, the ABCB1 gene polymorphisms were identified at positions 1236 and 2677 by automated sequencing and SNP 3435 by the RFLP method. The relative level of ABCB1 expression was measured in 10 samples of gastric cancer and morphologically normal tissues by real-time PCR. For SNPs at positions 1236, 2677, and 3435, no statistically significant differences in genotype frequencies between gastric cancer patients and healthy individuals were found. However, genotype TT for all studied polymorphisms occurred more frequently in the group of gastric cancer patients (31.6, 26.3, 42.1%, respectively) than in the group of healthy individuals (14.6, 13.5, 21.9%, respectively). The lowest relative expression levels of ABCB1 mRNA were observed for genotypes CC of SNP 1236, CC of SNP 3435, and GG of SNP 2677 (median: 0.215, 0.160, 0.160, respectively). There was a tendency that mutant homozygote TT for SNPs at positions 1236, 2677, and 3435 occurred more frequently in the subgroup of patients with Tis or stage I of TNM classification (SNP 1236 p = 0.0760; SNP 2677 p = 0.0813; SNP 3435 p = 0.0760) than in the subgroup of patients with stage II or III. Also the expression levels were lowest (median 0.740) in the group of patients with the less advanced clinical stage of cancer (Tis or I). Preliminary research showed that the ABCB1 gene polymorphisms at positions 1236, 2677, and 3435 were not related to an increased susceptibility of gastric cancer development. However, they may be associated with the inhibition of gastric cancer progression.

Possible association of ABCB1:c.3435T>C polymorphism with high-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol response to statin treatment--a pilot study. Bosn J Basic Med Sci 2014; 14:144-9. [PMID: 25172973 DOI: 10.17305/bjbms.2014.3.43] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2014] [Revised: 08/14/2014] [Accepted: 07/25/2014] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
The gene product ABCB1 (formerly MDR1 or P-glycoprotein) is hypothesized to be involved in cholesterol cellular trafficking, redistribution and intestinal re-absorption. Carriers of the ABCB1:3435T allele have previously been associated with decreases in ABCB1 mRNA and protein concentrations and have been correlated with changes in serum lipid concentrations. The aim of this study was to investigate possible association between the ABCB1:3435T>C polymorphism and changes in lipids in patients following statin treatment. Outpatients (n=130) were examined: 43 men (33%), 87 women (67%): treated with atorvastatin or simvastatin (all patients with equivalent dose of 20 or 40 mg/d simvastatin). Blood was taken for ABCB1:3435T>C genotyping, and before and after statin treatment for lipid concentration determination (total cholesterol, high-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides). Change (Δ) in lipid parameters, calculated as differences between measurements before and after treatment, were analyzed with multiple regression adjustments: gender, diabetes, age, body mass index, equivalent statin dose, length of treatment. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed significant differences in ΔHDL-C (univariate p=0.029; multivariate p=0.036) and %ΔHDL-C (univariate p=0.021; multivariate p=0.023) between patients with TT (-0.05 ± 0.13 g/l; -6.8% ± 20%; respectively) and CC+CT genotypes (0.004 ± 0.15 g/l; 4.1 ± 26%; respectively). Reduction of HDL-C in homozygous ABCB1:3435TT patients suggests this genotype could be associated with a reduction in the benefits of statin treatment.

Abstract
CYP3A5 plays a prominent role in the metabolism of maraviroc, an approved drug for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 treatment and a candidate for HIV-1 prevention. We studied the effect of the CYP3A5 genotype on pharmacokinetics of maraviroc and a primary CYP3A5-dependent metabolite of maraviroc denoted as metabolite 1 (M1). Volunteers were screened for health status and CYP3A5 genotype (wild-type allele *1 and dysfunctional alleles *2, *3, *6, and *7) to obtain 24 evaluable subjects in three groups (n = 8 each): homozygous dysfunctional (two dysfunctional alleles), heterozygous (one *1 allele and one dysfunctional allele), and homozygous wild-type (two *1 alleles). Subjects received 300 mg maraviroc orally followed by blood collection for 32 hours. The homozygous wild-type group exhibited lower mean plasma maraviroc concentrations at almost all sampling times. The median (interquartile range) maraviroc area under the plasma concentration-time curves from time 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf) were 2099 (1422-2568) ng⋅h/ml, 1761 (931-2640) ng⋅h/ml, and 1238 (1065-1407) ng⋅h/ml for the homozygous dysfunctional, heterozygous, and homozygous wild-type groups, respectively. The homozygous wild-type group had 41% lower maraviroc AUC0-inf and 66% higher apparent clearance compared with the homozygous dysfunctional group (P = 0.02). The AUC0-inf ratios of maraviroc to M1 in heterozygous and homozygous wild-type subjects were lower by 51 and 64% relative to the homozygous dysfunctional group, respectively (P < 0.001). In conclusion, the lower maraviroc concentrations in the homozygous wild-type group indicate that maraviroc may be underdosed in people homozygous for the CYP3A5*1 allele, including almost one-half of African Americans.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The rate of accumulation of atazanavir and ritonavir within cells is still debated due to methodological limitations. Our aim was to measure peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) concentrations of atazanavir and ritonavir and investigate whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms of OATP, ABCB1, CYP3A4 and PXR genes are involved in intracellular drug penetration. METHODS HIV-positive patients administered 300 mg of atazanavir/100 mg of ritonavir were enrolled. Blood sampling was performed at the end of the dosing interval (Ctrough). PBMC-associated and plasma atazanavir and ritonavir concentrations were measured by validated HPLC coupled with a single mass detector (HPLC-MS) and HPLC-photodiode array (PDA) methods, respectively. Cell count and mean cellular volume were determined using a Coulter counter. Genotyping was conducted using real-time PCR. RESULTS Thirty-five patients were enrolled. Median atazanavir and ritonavir intracellular concentrations were 1844 and 716 ng/mL, respectively. Median plasma concentrations were 645 ng/mL for atazanavir and 75 ng/mL for ritonavir, while median intracellular/plasma concentration ratios were 2.4 and 9.2, respectively. Median ritonavir intracellular concentrations were higher for OATP1B1 521 T→C TC or CC carriers and for PXR 44477 A→G AG or GG carriers. Atazanavir intracellular/plasma concentration ratios were higher in patients GG for the ABCB1 2677 G→T single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) compared with GT and TT groups. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed a higher intracellular ritonavir accumulation than previously reported. Ritonavir intracellular concentrations were associated with OATP1B1 521 and PXR 44477 SNPs while intracellular atazanavir exposure was associated with the ABCB1 2677 SNP. Further clinical studies are necessary in order to confirm these data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As important mediators of solute transport at the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers, ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters (including ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2), impact the bioavailability of drugs and endogenous substrates in the brain. While several ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified, their impact on outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is unknown. HYPOTHESIS ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2 SNPs are associated with Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score after TBI. METHODS DNA samples from 305 adult patients with severe TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale, GCS score ≤ 8) were genotyped for tagging SNPs of ABCB1 (rs1045642; rs1128503), ABCC1 (rs212093; rs35621; rs4148382), and ABCC2 (rs2273697). For each SNP, patients were dichotomized based on presence of variant allele for multivariate analysis to determine associations with GOS assigned at 6 months adjusting for GCS, Injury Severity score, age, and patient sex. RESULTS For ABCB1 rs1045642, patients homozygous for the T allele were less likely to be assigned poor outcome versus those possessing the C allele [CT/CC; odds of unfavorable GOS = 0.71(0.55-0.92)]. For ABCC1 rs4148382, patients homozygous for the G allele were less likely to be assigned poor outcome versus those possessing the A allele [AG/AA; odds of unfavorable GOS = 0.73(0.55-0.98)]. CONCLUSIONS In this single-center study, patients homozygous for the T allele of ABCB1 rs1045642 or the G allele of ABCC1 rs4148382 were found to have better outcome after severe TBI. Further study is necessary to replicate these very preliminary findings and to determine whether these associations are due to central nervous system bioavailability of ABC transporter drug substrates commonly used in the management of TBI, brain efflux of endogenous solutes, or both.

Abstract
The P-glycoprotein, encoded by the multidrug resistance (MDR)1 gene, extrudes fat-soluble compounds to the extracellular environment. However, the DNA damage of pesticides in subjects with genetic variation in MDR1 has not been investigated. In this study, the comet assay was applied to examine the extent of DNA damage in the peripheral blood of 195 fruit growers who had been exposed to pesticides and 141 unexposed controls. The MDR1 polymorphisms were identified. Questionnaires were administered to obtain demographic data and occupational history. Results showed subjects experiencing high (2.14 μm/cell, P < 0.01) or low pesticide exposure (2.18 μm/cell, P < 0.01) had a significantly greater DNA tail moment than controls (1.28 μm/cell). Compared to the MDR1 T-129C (rs3213619) TC/CC carriers, the TT carriers had increased DNA tail moment in controls (1.30 versus 1.12 μm/cell, P < 0.01). Similar results were observed in the high and low pesticide-exposed groups. Combined analysis revealed that pesticide-exposed fruit growers with MDR1 -129 TT genotype had the greatest DNA damage in the subjects with the combinations of pesticide exposure and MDR1 -129 genotypes. In conclusion, pesticide exposed individuals with susceptible MDR1 -129 genotypes may experience increased risk of DNA damage.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 8900 genetic variants, mainly single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), associated with hundreds of human traits and diseases, which define risk-associated loci. Variants that map to coding regions can affect protein sequence, translation rate, and alternative splicing, all of which influence protein function. However, the vast majority of sequence variants map to non-coding intergenic and intronic regions, and it has been much more challenging to assess the functional nature of these variants. Recent work annotating the non-coding regions of the genome has contributed to post-GWAS studies by facilitating the identification of the functional targets of risk-associated loci. Many non-coding genetic variants within risk-associated loci alter gene expression by modulating the activity of cis-regulatory elements. We review here these recent findings, discuss their implication for the post-GWAS era, and relate their importance to the interpretation of disease-associated mutations identified through whole-genome sequencing.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the association of ABCB1 gene polymorphisms with susceptibility to colorectal cancer (CRC) and clinical outcomes of CRC patients with chemotherapy. PATIENTS & METHODS A case-control study was performed on the C3435T, C1236T and G2677T/A polymorphisms in the ABCB1 gene in 1028 CRC patients and 1230 controls. RESULTS We observed that the ABCB1 C3435T and G2677T/A variants as well as the 3435T-1236T-2677T haplotype significantly increased the risk of CRC. The ABCB1 C3435T CT genotype had a significant effect on the time to recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [HR; 95% CI]: 0.560 [0.355-0.882]; p = 0.012). Moreover, ABCB1 C1236T variant carriers displayed a longer overall survival after postoperative oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy (adjusted HR [95% CI]: 0.354 [0.182-0.692], 0.646 [0.458-0.910], respectively). In addition, 1236TT-2677TT-3435TT haplotype carriers showed a worse progression-free survival (adjusted HR [95% CI]: 1.477 [1.012-3.802]; p = 0.043) and recurrence-free survival (adjusted HR [95% CI]: 2.183 [1.253-3.802]; p = 0.006). CONCLUSION The ABCB1 polymorphisms might be a candidate pharmacogenomic factor to assess susceptibility and prognosis after oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy for CRC patients.

ABCB1 haplotypes are associated with P-gp activity and affect a major molecular response in chronic myeloid leukemia patients treated with a standard dose of imatinib. Oncol Lett 2014; 7:1313-1319.

Abstract
Despite the high efficacy of imatinib mesylate (IM) treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients, some individuals develop resistance due to impaired bioavailability. It has been previously demonstrated that the haplotypes for ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1)with c.1236C>T, c.3435C>T and c.2677G>T/A polymorphisms markedly affect the secondary structure of ABCB1 mRNA and its activity. These modifications may affect efflux transporter activity and response to treatment with IM. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of ABCB1 haplotypes on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) activity, IM plasma levels and IM response. In total, 28 chronic-phase CML patients treated with a standard dose of IM (400 mg/day) were studied. The patients were selected according to the haplotypes of ABCB1, with c.1236C>T, c.3435C>T and c.2677G>T polymorphisms, and were classified into two groups based on the presence of the mutated allele in each genotype for the three ABCB1 polymorphisms. In addition, expression of P-gp and breakpoint cluster region-abelson 1 (BCR-ABL1), ABCB1 and solute carrier family 22 member 1 (SLC22A1) mRNA were evaluated. The P-gp activity in the wild-type group was found to be higher than that in the mutated group (59.1 vs. 38.3%; P=0.001). Furthermore, the patients who did not achieve major molecular response (MMR) showed a higher rate of efflux mediated by P-gp when compared with individuals who achieved MMR (64.7 vs. 45.7%; P=0.001). All patients without MMR demonstrated effluxes of >60%. In addition, patients without MMR exhibited lower plasma concentrations of IM compared with those with MMR (0.51 vs. 1.42 μg/ml; P=0.001). Higher levels of SLC22A1 mRNA were observed in patients who achieved MMR and complete molecular response (P<0.05). In conclusion, the ABCB1 1236CT/3435CT/2677GT and 1236TT/3435TT/2677TT haplotypes are associated with reduced P-gp activity and MMR in chronic-phase CML patients treated with a standard dose of IM.

Abstract
The C3435T polymorphism of the multidrug resistance gene (MDR1) has been implicated in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) risk, but the reported results are inconsistent. Here we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the association between C3435T polymorphism and the risk of IBD using all case-control studies published before February 2013 according to PubMed and Web of Science. A total of 13 case-control studies, including 6,757 cases and 4,295 controls, were included. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence interval (CI) was calculated using fixed- or random-effects model. Overall, no evidence has indicated that the C3435T polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility to IBD (dominant model: OR = 1.05, 95 % CI: 0.96-1.16; CT vs. CC: OR = 1.06, 95 % CI: 0.95-1.17; TT vs. CC: OR = 1.04, 95 % CI: 0.92-1.17; recessive model: OR = 0.99, 95 % CI: 0.90-1.09). Besides, stratified analysis by clinical type also indicated that no significant association between MDR1 C3435T and the risk of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis was observed. This meta-analysis indicated that the C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 may not confer susceptibility to IBD.

Abstract
The antitumor agent actinomycin D has been used in the treatment of Wilms tumor for the past 40 years. Actinomycin D-induced hepatopathy-thrombocytopenia syndrome (HTS) is characterized as a rare syndrome. The mechanism underlying HTS may differ with individual multidrug resistance protein-1 (MDR1) genotype. The relationship between actinomycin D-related HTS and MDR1 gene mutations is presented in this case study of a pediatric patient with Wilms tumor. Our findings revealed that the girl had (-)1G>A, 1236C>T, 2677G>T, 3435C>T, and 61A>G MDR1 gene mutations. Understanding the function of genetic variants of MDR1 is an important aim for personalized cancer management.

Abstract
In the face of competing tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), identification of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients expecting favorable response to second-line treatment is warranted. At the time of imatinib resistance, the investigation of multidrug-resistance protein 1 (MDR1) and BCR-ABL yielded the following results: (i) Patients with high MDR1 transcript levels showed superior response at 48 months as compared with low-level MDR1 patients: major molecular response (MMR) in 41% vs 16% (P=0.014), complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) in 58% vs 39% (P=0.044), and progression-free survival (PFS) in 67% vs 46% (P=0.032). (ii) Patients with BCR-ABL(IS) <28% achieved higher MMR rates (48% vs 21%, P=0.009). (iii) PFS at 48 months was associated with in vitro resistance of BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations: 63% (no mutation) vs 61% (sensitive, intermediately sensitive or unknown IC50 (median inhibitory concentration)) vs 23% (resistant, P=0.01). (iv) Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at positions 1236 and 2677 were associated with higher MDR1 expression in comparison to wild type. (v) Nilotinib was able to impede proliferation of MDR1-overexpressing imatinib-resistant cells. High MDR1 gene expression might identify patients whose mode of imatinib resistance is essentially determined by increased efflux activity of MDR1 and therefore can be overcome by second-line nilotinib treatment.

Abstract
Tacrolimus (FK506) is a calcineurin inhibitor with a narrow therapeutic index that exhibits large interindividual variation. Seventy-eight kidney transplant patients treated with tacrolimus were recruited to study the correlation of dose adjusted trough level (level/dose; L/D) of tacrolimus with CYP3A5 and ABCB1 genotypes, as well as the mRNA copy number of ABCB1 in blood. Patients were genotyped for ABCB1 (C1236T, G2677T/A, and C3435T) and CYP3A5 (G6986A), while ABCB1 mRNA transcript copy number was determined by absolute quantification (real-time PCR) in 46 patients. CYP3A5*3 genotypes were found to be a good predictor of tacrolimus L/D in kidney-transplant patients. Significantly higher L/D was observed among non-expressors (2.85, 95%: 2.05–3.70 (ng·mL–1)/(mg·kg–1)) as compared with the expressors (1.15, 95%: 0.95–1.80 (ng·mL–1)/(mg·kg–1)) of CYP3A5 (Mann–Whitney U test; P < 0.001). No correlation was observed between L/D and the ABCB1 genotypes. A significant inverse correlation of blood ABCB1 mRNA level with L/D was demonstrated (Spearman’s Rank Order correlation; P = 0.016, rs = –0.348). However, in multiple regression analysis, only CYP3A5*3 genotype groups were found to be significantly correlated with tacrolimus L/D (P < 0.001). These findings highlight the importance of CYP3A5*3 pharmacogenotyping among kidney-transplant patients treated with tacrolimus, and confirm the role of blood cell P-glycoprotein in influencing the L/D for tacrolimus.

Abstract
A major difficulty in the treatment of cancers is the poor response of many tumors to pharmacological regimens. This situation can be accounted for by the existence of a variety of complex mechanisms of chemoresistance (MOCs), leading to reduced intracellular concentrations of active agents, changes in the molecular targets of the drugs, enhanced repair of drug-induced modifications in macromolecules, stimulation of anti-apoptotic mechanisms, and inhibition of pro-apoptotic mechanisms. The present review focuses on alterations in the expression and appearance of the genetic variants that affect the genes involved in reducing the amount of active agents inside tumor cells. These alterations can occur through two mechanisms: either by lowering uptake or enhancing efflux (so-called MOC-1a and MOC-1b, respectively), or by decreasing the activation of prodrugs or enhancing inactivation of active agents through their biotransformation (MOC-2). The development of chemosensitizers that are useful in implementing the pharmacological manipulation of these processes constitutes a challenge to modern pharmacology. Nevertheless, the important physiological roles of the most relevant genes involved in MOC-1a, MOC-1b, and MOC-2 make it difficult to prevent the side effects of chemosensitizers. A more attainable goal in this area of pharmacological enquiry is the identification of proteomic profiles that will permit oncologists to accurately predict a lack of response to a given regimen, which would be useful for adapting treatment to the personal situation of each patient.

Abstract
Sirolimus, an immunosuppressive drug used to prevent organ rejection after renal transplantation, has a narrow therapeutic index and a large inter-individual variability of pharmacokinetics. The aim of this study was to analyse the dose-normalized trough blood concentrations (C0 /D ratio) of sirolimus in patients with different genotypes and attempt to investigate the possible associations between ABCB1/CYP3A5 genotypes and sirolimus dose requirements in Chinese renal transplant recipients. Blood samples were collected from 85 Chinese renal transplant recipients who were treated with sirolimus for at least 3 months and polymorphisms of the ABCB1 and CYP3A5 were determined by the SNaPShot multiplex assay. The blood concentrations of sirolimus were determined with HPLC. A significant allele-dependent effect was observed between the CYP3A5*3 polymorphism and the C0 /D ratio of sirolimus. The patients bearing at least one CYP3A5*1 allele had a lower sirolimus C0/D ratio compared with those with a homozygous CYP3A5*3 genotype (p < 0.05). No significant differences of sirolimus C0/D ratios were observed among various ABCB1 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A and 3435C>T genotype groups. However, haplotype analysis including ABCB1 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A and 3435C>T SNPs showed that the mean sirolimus C0/D of subjects carrying the CGC/CGC diplotype was about 30% lower compared with those carrying the CGC/TTT or TTT/TTT diplotype, whether or not they expressed the CYP3A5 (p < 0.05). These results demonstrated that the haplotype of ABCB1 might be a better index for the prediction of sirolimus blood concentration than single SNPs. Genotyping of ABCB1 and CYP3A5 might help to optimize individualized sirolimus treatments for Chinese renal transplant recipients.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Treatment outcomes vary greatly in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of radiation and chemotherapy drug action pathway gene polymorphisms on the survival of patients with locoregionally advanced NPC treated with cisplatin- and fluorouracil-based chemoradiotherapy. Material and Methods Four hundred twenty-one consecutive patients with locoregionally advanced NPC were prospectively recruited. We utilized a pathway approach and examined 18 polymorphisms in 13 major genes. Polymorphisms were detected using the LDR-PCR technique. Multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis was performed to detect potential gene-gene interaction. Results After adjustment for clinicopathological characteristics, overall survival was significantly decreased in patients with the MPO rs2243828 CT/CC genotype (HR=2.453, 95% CI, 1.687-3.566, P<0.001). The ERCC1 rs3212986 CC (HR=1.711, 95% CI, 1.135-2.579, P=0.010), MDM2 rs2279744 GT/GG (HR=1.743, 95% CI, 1.086-2.798, P=0.021), MPO rs2243828 CT/CC (HR=3.184, 95% CI, 2.261-4.483, P<0.001) and ABCB1 rs2032582 AT/AA (HR=1.997, 95% CI, 1.086-3.670, P=0.026) genotypes were associated with poor progression-free survival. Prognostic score models based on independent prognostic factors successfully classified patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups. Furthermore, MDR analysis showed no significant interaction between polymorphisms. Conclusions Four single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with survival in patients with locoregionally advanced NPC treated with cisplatin- and fluorouracil-based chemoradiotherapy. Combining clinical prognostic factors with genetic information was valuable in identifying patients with different risk.

Abstract
The drug efflux function of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) encoded by MDR1 can be influenced by genetic polymorphisms, including two synonymous changes in the coding region of MDR1. Here we report that the conformation of P-gp and its drug efflux activity can be altered by synonymous polymorphisms in stable epithelial monolayers expressing P-gp. Several cell lines with similar MDR1 DNA copy number were developed and termed LLC-MDR1-WT (expresses wild-type P-gp), LLC-MDR1-3H (expresses common haplotype P-gp), and LLC-MDR1-3HA (a mutant that carries a different valine codon in position 3435). These cell lines express similar levels of recombinant mRNA and protein. P-gp in each case is localized on the apical surface of polarized cells. However, the haplotype and its mutant P-gps fold differently from the wild-type, as determined by UIC2 antibody shift assays and limited proteolysis assays. Surface biotinylation experiments suggest that the non-wild-type P-gps have longer recycling times. Drug transport assays show that wild-type and haplotype P-gp respond differently to P-gp inhibitors that block efflux of rhodamine 123 or mitoxantrone. In addition, cytotoxicity assays show that the LLC-MDR1-3H cells are more resistant to mitoxantrone than the LLC-MDR1-WT cells after being treated with a P-gp inhibitor. Expression of polymorphic P-gp, however, does not affect the host cell's morphology, growth rate, or monolayer formation. Also, ATPase activity assays indicate that neither basal nor drug-stimulated ATPase activities are affected in the variant P-gps. Taken together, our findings indicate that "silent" polymorphisms significantly change P-gp function, which would be expected to affect interindividual drug disposition and response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the excellent efficacy results of imatinib treatment in CML patients, resistance to imatinib has emerged as a significant problem. Genetic variations in genes involved in drug transportation might influence the pharmacokinetic and metabolism of imatinib. The genotype of a patient is increasingly recognized in influencing the response to the treatment. AIM To investigate the genotype frequencies of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) G2677T in CML patients undergoing imatinib treatment to determine whether different genotype pattern of these SNPs have any influence in mediating response to imatinib. METHODS A total of 96 CML and 90 control samples were analyzed for the human multidrug resistance gene 1 (MDR1) gene polymorphism (G2677T) using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. RESULTS Genotype distribution revealed a significant lower frequency of TT genotype in CML patients and non-significant difference in the GG, GT genotype frequencies between patients and controls (P = 0.004, 0.138, 0.210, respectively). GG genotype was significantly higher in chronic phase (P = 0.046), while GT genotype was significantly higher in Blastic crisis phase (P = 0.002). There was a significant difference in genotype frequency of G2677T among patients showing response and resistance to imatinib in chronic phase (P = 0.02). TT genotype was associated with complete hematological response (P = 0.01), complete cytogenetic response (P < 0.001), and better molecular response with a significant association (P < 0.001). GT genotype was associated with partial hematological response (P = 0.01) and minor cytogenetic response (P < 0.001). Optimal and suboptimal responses were observed for patients with TT genotype (P = 0.003). Failure of drug response was associated with GT genotype (P = 0.02); however, GG had no association with drug response. Multivariate analysis considered GT genotype as independent risk factor for resistance (P = 0.037), while TT genotype as protective factor against resistance to imatinib (P = 0.008). CONCLUSION Determination of MDR1 polymorphisms (G2677T) might be useful in response prediction to therapy with imatinib in patients with CML.

Abstract
AIM Investigate the relationship between MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and colchicine response in Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients (n=50) who received colchicine regularly, were willing to participate in the study, and attended control visits were included in the study. MDR1 C3435T genotype was defined by the real-time polymerase chain reaction method. Patients were divided into three groups. Patients, who recovered from episodes with standard colchicine treatment, and had no attack in the last 1 year were accepted as complete; patients whose episode number and intensity were decreased with the ongoing standard treatment as partial; and patients whose episodes were not decreased despite the standard treatment as nonresponders. RESULTS MDR1 C and T allele frequencies of FMF patients with colchicine responses of complete, partial, and nonresponders were C=0.75 and T=0.25; C=0.56 and T=0.44; and C=0.50 and T=0.50, respectively. When complete responding patients were compared with the partial responding patients, subjects with CT genotype had 6.18 times more increased risk than with CC genotype (OR=6.18; p=0.015). Poor response risk of subjects with the T allele was increased 2.45 times more when compared with the C allele (p=0.03). CONCLUSION MDR1 gene C3435T polymorphism enacts an important role on colchicine response in FMF; good response to colchicine treatment was related to the C allele, whereas poor response was related to the T allele in FMF.

Abstract
The taxanes are a class of chemotherapeutic agents that are widely used in the treatment of various solid tumors. Although taxanes are highly effective in cancer treatment, their use is associated with serious complications attributable to large interindividual variability in pharmacokinetics and a narrow therapeutic window. Unpredictable toxicity occurrence necessitates close patient monitoring while on therapy and adverse effects frequently require decreasing, delaying or even discontinuing taxane treatment. Currently, taxane dosing is based primarily on body surface area, ignoring other factors that are known to dictate variability in pharmacokinetics or outcome. This article discusses three potential strategies for individualizing taxane treatment based on patient information that can be collected before or during care. The clinical implementation of pharmacogenetics, enzyme probes or therapeutic drug monitoring could enable clinicians to personalize taxane treatment to enhance efficacy and/or limit toxicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chemotherapy is the current standard treatment for hematological malignancies for both curative and palliative purposes. Unfortunately, in the current treatment scenario chemotherapy resistance is an issue that is know to lead to a relapse in cancer. The multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene is often involved in drug resistance and, so far, the best studied mechanism of resistance relates to the level of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression on cancer cells; however, correlation with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the MDR1 gene has also been observed via a number of different mechanisms that interfere with function and expression of P-gp. AREAS COVERED This article describes the influence of P-gp expression and SNP on the MDR1 gene in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and their effect on both its risk and outcome. The authors also provide a brief summary of the more important therapeutic options, which aim to overcome this drug resistance mechanism, and discuss their known mechanisms of action. EXPERT OPINION There is evidence pertaining to an association between the outcome of NHL and P-gp expression. However, the authors emphasize the need for more studies to reinforce this evidence. Furthermore, there is a definite need for the therapeutic targets, which provide tumor cellular lines of interest, to be tested in humans, in order to better evaluate their toxicity and overall effect on the outcome. The ultimate aim of this research is to develop specifically designed therapies that are tailored to the intrinsic characteristics of specific patients.

Abstract
Natural products are frequently used for adjuvant chemotherapy in cancer treatment. 23-O-(1,4'-bipiperidine-1-carbonyl) betulinic acid (BBA) is a synthetic derivative of 23-hydroxybutulinic acid (23-HBA), which is a natural pentacyclic triterpene and the major active constituent of the root of Pulsatillachinensis. We previously reported that BBA could reverse P-glycoprotein (P-gp/ABCB1)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR). In the present study, we investigated whether BBA has the potential to reverse multidrug resistance protein 7 (MRP7/ABCC10)-mediated MDR. We found that BBA concentration-dependently enhanced the sensitivity of MRP7-transfected HEK293 cells to paclitaxel, docetaxel and vinblastine. Accumulation and efflux experiments demonstrated that BBA increased the intracellular accumulation of [3H]-paclitaxel by inhibiting the efflux of [3H]-paclitaxel from HEK293/MRP7 cells. In addition, immunoblotting and immunofluorescence analyses indicated no significant alteration of MRP7 protein expression and localization in plasma membranes after treatment with BBA. These results demonstrate that BBA reverses MRP7-mediated MDR through blocking the drug efflux function of MRP7 without affecting the intracellular ATP levels. Our findings suggest that BBA has the potential to be used in combination with conventional chemotherapeutic agents to augment the response to chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effect of ABCB1 C3435T SNP on the pharmacokinetics of immunosuppressive drug tacrolimus in different studies was conflicting. So a meta-analysis was employed to study the correlation of ABCB1 C3435T SNP and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus at different post-transplantation times. METHOD Several studies about ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus were collected through the search on PubMed and the Cochrane Library. After the extraction of pharmacokinetic parameters from these studies, a meta-analysis was performed on the software STATA version 11.0. RESULTS A total of 9 studies were adopted including 558 liver transplant recipients. For the dose of tacrolimus, the subjects with wild-type CC had a significantly higher tacrolimus dose than homozygous mutated genotype TT within 1 week (WMD=0.01 (0.00, 0.02), P=0.014) and the similar result in recipients with heterozygous CT compared with TT after transplantation for 1 month (WMD=0.01 (0.00, 0.02), P=0.002). For the tacrolimus concentration/dose ratio, subjects with CT had higher C/D ratio than those with CC and TT at different post-transplantation times. A subgroup analysis based on different ethnic populations was also carried out. Donors' genotypes were also considered in this meta-analysis. CONCLUSION Through this meta-analysis for the including studies about the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus and ABCB1 C3435T SNP, several significant associations were obtained. Particularly, the Caucasians showed more significant associations between the C/D ratio and ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism; however, the correlations were not steady at different post-transplantation times.

Abstract
No indices are currently available to facilitate clinicians to identify patients who need either statin monotherapy or statin-ezetimibe combined treatment. We aimed to investigate whether cholesterol synthesis and absorption markers can predict the cholesterol-lowering response to statin. Total 306 statin-naïve patients with high risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) were treated with atorvastatin 20 mg/day for 1 month. Cholesterol synthesis and absorption markers and LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were measured before and after treatment. Atorvastatin decreased LDL-C by 36.8% (range: decrease of 74.5% to increase of 31.9%). Baseline cholesterol synthesis marker lathosterol and cholesterol absorption marker campesterol codetermined the effect of atorvastatin treatment. The effect of cholesterol lowering by atorvastatin was significantly associated with baseline lathosterol levels but modified bidirectionally by baseline campesterol levels. In patients with the highest baseline campesterol levels, atorvastatin treatment decreased cholesterol absorption by 46.1%, which enhanced the effect of LDL-C lowering. Atorvastatin treatment increased cholesterol absorption by 52.3% in those with the lowest baseline campesterol levels, which attenuated the effect of LDL-C reduction. Especially those with the highest lathosterol but the lowest campesterol levels at baseline had significantly less LDL-C reduction than those with the same baseline lathosterol levels but the highest campesterol levels (27.3% versus 42.4%, P = 0.002). These results suggest that combined patterns of cholesterol synthesis/absorption markers, rather than each single marker, are potential predictors of the LDL-C-lowering effects of atorvastatin in high-risk CHD patients.

Abstract
The TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL or Apo2L) preferentially cause apoptosis of malignant cells in vitro and in vivo without severe toxicity. Therefore, TRAIL or agonist antibodies to the TRAIL DR4 and DR5 receptors are used in cancer therapy. However, many malignant cells are intrinsically resistant or acquire resistance to TRAIL. It has been previously proposed that the multidrug transporter P-glycoprotein (Pgp) might play a role in resistance of cells to intrinsic apoptotic pathways by interfering with components of ceramide metabolism or by modulating the electrochemical gradient across the plasma membrane. In this study we investigated whether Pgp also confers resistance toward extrinsic death ligands of the TNF family. To this end we focused our study on HeLa cells carrying a tetracycline-repressible plasmid system which shuts down Pgp expression in the presence of tetracycline. Our findings demonstrate that expression of Pgp is a significant factor conferring resistance to TRAIL administration, but not to other death ligands such as TNF-α and Fas ligand. Moreover, blocking Pgp transport activity sensitizes the malignant cells toward TRAIL. Therefore, Pgp transport function is required to confer resistance to TRAIL. Although the resistance to TRAIL-induced apoptosis is Pgp specific, TRAIL itself is not a direct substrate of Pgp. Pgp expression has no effect on the level of the TRAIL receptors DR4 and DR5. These findings might have clinical implications since the combination of TRAIL therapy with administration of Pgp modulators might sensitize TRAIL resistant tumors.

Abstract
Although a number of genetic studies have attempted to link the multidrug resistance (MDR1) C3435T polymorphism to risk of leukaemia, the results were often inconsistent. The present study aimed at investigating the pooled association using a meta-analysis on the published studies. 1933 cases and 2215 controls of 11 published studies in English before June 2012 were involved in the updated meta-analysis. Furthermore, subgroup analysis was performed in different ethnic and leukaemia subtype groups. This meta-analysis suggests that the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism associate with risk of leukaemia. The effect of the variant on the expression levels and the possible functional role of the variant in leukaemia should be addressed in further studies.

Incorporation of ABCB1-mediated transport into a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model of docetaxel in mice. J Pharmacokinet Pharmacodyn 2013; 40:437-49.

Abstract
Docetaxel is one of the most widely used anticancer agents. While this taxane has proven to be an effective chemotherapeutic drug, noteworthy challenges exist in relation to docetaxel administration due to the considerable interindividual variability in efficacy and toxicity associated with the use of this compound, largely attributable to differences between individuals in their ability to metabolize and eliminate docetaxel. Regarding the latter, the ATP-binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1, PGP, MDR1) is primarily responsible for docetaxel elimination. To further understand the role of ABCB1 in the biodistribution of docetaxel in mice, we utilized physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling that included ABCB1-mediated transport in relevant tissues. Transporter function was evaluated by studying docetaxel pharmacokinetics in wild-type FVB and Mdr1a/b constitutive knockout (KO) mice and incorporating this concentration-time data into a PBPK model comprised of eight tissue compartments (plasma, brain, heart, lung, kidney, intestine, liver and slowly perfused tissues) and, in addition to ABCB1-mediated transport, included intravenous drug administration, specific binding to intracellular tubulin, intestinal and hepatic metabolism, glomerular filtration and tubular reabsorption. For all tissues in both the FVB and KO cohorts, the PBPK model simulations closely mirrored the observed data. Furthermore, both models predicted AUC values that were with 15 % of the observed AUC values, indicating that our model-simulated drug exposures accurately reflected the observed tissue exposures. Overall, our PBPK model furthers the understanding of the role of ABCB1 in the biodistribution of docetaxel. Additionally, this exemplary model structure can be applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics of other ABCB1 transporter substrates.

[PMID: 23647895 DOI: 10.1016/j.ihj.2013.02.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2012] [Revised: 12/28/2012] [Accepted: 02/14/2013] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/OBJECTIVE Influence of genetic variations on the response of clopidogrel, an antiplatelet drug is implicated. In the present study, the prevalence of single nucleotide polymorphisms of MDR1 (C3435T), CYP2C19 [CYP2C19*2 CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*17] and P2Y12 (i-T744C) in Indian population and their effects on clopidogrel response was analyzed. METHODS AND RESULTS To analyze the prevalence of polymorphisms, 102 healthy individuals were recruited. Clopidogrel response was assessed by ADP induced platelet aggregation in clopidogrel naïve acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients (n = 26) screened from 100 AMI cases, before loading dose of 300 mg, at 24 h before next dose and 6 days after on 75 mg per day and platelet aggregation inhibition (PAI) was calculated between these time intervals. Genotyping was carried out by PCR-based restriction enzyme digestion method for C3435T of MDR1 and i-T744C of P2Y12, by multiplex PCR for CYP2C19*2 (G681A) and CYP2C19*3 (G636A) and by nested PCR for CYP2C19*17 (C806T). The effect of the above mentioned genetic variations on PAI was analyzed. Variant allele of CYP2C19*3 was not observed while the prevalence of 3435T of MDR1 (0.524), CYP2C19*2 (681A, 0.352); i-744C of P2Y12 (0.088), as well as wild type allele CYP2C19*17 (C806, 0.897) associated with decrease clopidogrel response were observed. Trend toward poor response to clopidogrel was observed at 24 h with the variant genotypes of CYP2C19*2 and i-T744C of P2Y12 as compared to wild type. CONCLUSION The present study did show a trend toward impaired response of clopidogrel to inhibit platelet aggregation with variant genotypes of CYP2C19*2 and iT744C of P2Y12 compared to respective wild type genotype at 24 h.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diet contributes significantly to colorectal cancer (CRC) aetiology and may be potentially modifiable. AIM To review diet-gene interactions, aiming to further the understanding of the underlying biological pathways in CRC development. METHODS The PubMed and Medline were systematically searched for prospective studies in relation to diet, colorectal cancer and genetics. RESULTS In a meta-analysis, no interaction between NAT1 phenotypes and meat intake in relation to risk of CRC was found (P-value for interaction 0.95). We found a trend towards interaction between NAT2 phenotypes and meat intake in relation to risk of CRC. High meat intake was not associated with risk of CRC among carriers of the slow NAT2 phenotype, whereas NAT2 fast acetylators with high meat intake were at increased risk of CRC (OR = 1.25; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.92-2.01) compared with slow acetylators with low meat intake (reference), P-value for interaction = 0.07. Low meat intake in the studied populations may influence the result. Interactions between meat, cruciferous vegetables, fibres, calcium, vitamins, and alcohol and ABCB1, NFKB1, GSTM1, GSTT1, CCND1, VDR, MGTM, IL10 and PPARG are suggested. CONCLUSIONS A number of interactions between genetic variation and diet are suggested, but the findings need replication in independent, prospective, and well-characterised cohorts before conclusions regarding the underlying biological mechanisms can be reached. When the above criteria are met, studies on diet-gene interactions may contribute valuable insight into the biological mechanisms underlying the role of various dietary items in colorectal carcinogenesis.

Abstract
AIM ABCB1/MDR1 protein is found in high concentrations on the apical surfaces of colonic epithelial cells. It acts as an efflux pump by transporting toxic endogenous substances, drugs and xenobiotics out of cells. Polymorphisms in the ABCB1/MDR1 gene may either change expression of the ABCB1/MDR1 protein or alter its function, suggesting its possible association with colorectal cancer. Several studies have reported a relationship between ABCB1 gene polymorphisms and colorectal cancer risk, but no consistent conclusion has been reached. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to identify any association between the ABCB1 gene and CRC risk. METHOD PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, Cbmdisc and CNKI were searched for studies on the relationship of ABCB1/MDR1 gene SNPs and the incidence of colorectal cancer. Eligible articles were included for data extraction. The main outcome was the frequency of ABCB1/MDR1 gene SNPs among cases and controls. Comparison of the distribution of SNPs was performed mainly using Review Manager 5.0. RESULTS Ten, four and two trials were identified that focussed on the ABCB1 gene SNPs rs1045642, rs2032582 and rs3789243, respectively. A total of 3175 cases and 3715 controls were included. The meta-analysis, stratified by ethnicity or population source, indicated no association between the ABCB1 gene rs1045642 polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk. However, when the study by Bae et al. was removed from the analysis, there was some evidence to indicate a higher T-allele frequency in Asian colorectal cancer patients (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.02-1.67, P = 0.03). Neither ABCB1 rs2032582 nor ABCB1 rs3789243 indicated an association with colorectal cancer risk. An increased frequency only of the wild-type combined allele (rs2032582G/rs1045642C) was found in Caucasian patients (OR = 1.22, 95% CI: 1.03-1.44, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION There is some evidence to indicate an association between ABCB1 rs1045642T and colorectal cancer risk in Asians. Compared with the ABCB1 gene SNPs rs1045642, rs2032582 or rs3789243 alone, combined haplotypes of several SNPs might be a better marker to determine the genetic influence on the susceptibility to colorectal cancer among Caucasians.

Abstract
The ABCB1 gene encodes P-glycoprotein, an ATP-dependent drug efflux pump, which is responsible for drug transport across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. The variability in the expression of ABCB1 may contribute to variable plasma efavirenz concentration which results in variability in the levels of suppression of the human immunodeficiency syndrome virus (HIV). The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of polymorphisms in ABCB1 gene on plasma efavirenz levels and treatment response in the form of change in viral load and CD-4 cell count in HIV/AIDS patients receiving efavirenz-containing highly active antiretroviral treatment regimens. Two hundred and eighty-two HIV-infected patients were recruited from Themba Lethu Clinic in Johannesburg and plasma efavirenz drug concentration levels were measured using LC-MS/MS. SNaPshot was used to genotype five known ABCB1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Genotype-phenotype correlations were computed. The ABCB1 4036A/G and 4036G/G genotypes were significantly associated with low plasma efavirenz concentrations (P = 0.0236), while the ABCB1 1236C/T and 1236T/T genotypes were associated with high efavirenz concentrations (P = 0.0282). A haplotype ABCB1 T-G-T-A is reported that is associated with significantly increased plasma efavirenz levels. This is the first report on 61A>G, 2677G>T/A, and 4036A>G SNPs in the South African population. ABCB1 plays a role in determining the plasma concentrations of efavirenz and should be taken into account in future design of assays for genotype-based dosing of efavirenz-containing regimens.

Abstract
This study was conducted to establish the contribution of genetic host factors in the susceptibility to community acquired pneumonia (CAP) in the Russian population. Patients with CAP (n=334), volunteers without a previous history of CAP, constantly exposed to infectious agents, control A group (n=141) and a second control group B consisted of healthy persons (n=314) were included in the study. All subjects were genotyped for 13 polymorphic variants in the genes of xenobiotics detoxification CYP1A1 (rs2606345, rs4646903, and rs1048943), GSTM1 (Ins/del), GSTT1 (Ins/del), ABCB1 rs1045642); immune and inflammation response IL-6 (rs1800795), TNF-a (rs1800629), MBL2 (rs7096206), CCR5 (rs333), NOS3 (rs1799983), angiotensin-converting enzyme ACE (rs4340), and occlusive vascular disease/hyperhomocysteinemia MTHFR (rs1801133). Seven polymorphic variants in genes CYP1A1, GSTM1, ABCB1, NOS3, IL6, CCR5 and ACE were associated with CAP. For two genes CYP1A1 and GSTM1 associations remained significant after correction for multiple comparisons. Multiple analysis by the number of all risk genotypes showed a highly significant association with CAP (P=2.4×10(-7), OR=3.03, 95% CI 1.98-4.64) with the threshold for three risk genotypes. Using the ROC-analysis, the AUC value for multi-locus model was estimated as 68.38.

CYP2C19 genotype has a major influence on labetalol pharmacokinetics in healthy male Chinese subjects. Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2012; 69:799-806.

Abstract
PURPOSE The pharmacokinetics (PK) of labetalol show wide inter-subject variability, but the genetic causes for this are largely undetermined. This study was performed to examine whether common polymorphisms in UGT1A1, UGT2B7, CYP2C19 and ABCB1 affect the PK of labetalol. METHODS The PK of labetalol were determined in 37 Chinese healthy male subjects who took a single oral dose of 200 mg labetalol. Plasma concentrations of labetalol were determined by a high-performance liquid chromatographic method. Subjects were genotyped for the CYP2C19 2 and 3, UGT1A1 6, 28 and 60, UGT2B7 2 and ABCB1 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A and 3435C>T polymorphisms. RESULTS Subjects with the CYP2C19 2/ 2 genotype had a higher peak concentration (255.5 ± 80.1 vs. 156.0 ± 66.3 ng/mL; P < 0.05) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞; 1,473.7 ± 493.6 vs. 502.8 ± 176.1 ng[Symbol: see text]h/mL; P < 0.001) than subjects with 60 or 28, and UGT2B7 2 did not result in a significant effect. Subjects with ABCB1 2677TA or TT or ABCB1 3435TT genotypes had higher AUC0-∞ and lower total clearance than the wild-types (P < 0.05), but this appeared to be related to the distribution of CYP2C19 genotypes. The CYP2C19 genotype appeared to be the only predictor of labetalol concentrations, accounting for approximately 60 % of the total variance in the AUC0-∞. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the PK of labetalol are significantly affected by the common CYP2C19 polymorphisms in individuals of Chinese ethnicity. Future larger studies are needed to evaluate the effect of CYP2C19 and UGT1A1 polymorphisms on the PK of labetalol stereoisomers and the pharmacodynamic effects.

Abstract
It has been suggested that P-glycoprotein (P-gp), the product of multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene, regulates the brain entry of various xenobiotics. Impaired function of P-gp may be associated with an increased risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of a MDR1 C3435T polymorphism on PD risk alone or in combination with environmental factors. A total of 238 patients with PD and 368 controls were genotyped for the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism. Subjects with the TT genotype of the C3435T polymorphism showed a nonsignificantly increased risk of PD [odds ratio (OR)=1.49, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.85-2.25] compared with those with the CC genotype. A gene-environment interaction was suggested, with a combination of at least one T allele and ever drinking conferring significantly higher risk (OR=1.83, 95% CI=1.07-3.15, p=0.029), compared with the CC genotype and never drinking. No significant interaction of smoking or occupational pesticide use with the C3435T polymorphism was observed. Our results suggest that the C3435T polymorphism may not play an important role in PD susceptibility in Japanese. Evidence of an interaction between the C3435T polymorphism and alcohol consumption was suggested.

Abstract
We assessed whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MDR1 gene C3435T predicted the outcome of platinum-based chemotherapies and survival in our non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. A total of 79 non-small cell lung cancer patients were enrolled to study. We determined the MDR1 C3435T single nucleotide gene polymorphisms. Median age was 60years: 91.7% male, 8.9% female. We found that CC, CT, TT genotype and T, C allele frequencies in lung cancer patients as 24.1%, 62%, 13.9% and 44.3%, 55.7%, respectively. Patients with CT genotype had a higher response rate (11.4%) than the other genotypes. However, this difference is not statistically significant (p=0.743). Cox regression analysis for overall survival showed that ECOG PS status 0 (HR PS 1 vs. 0, 5.68 p=0.002; HR of PS 2 vs. 0 is 21.579, p=0.001; HR of PS 3 vs. 0 is 35.35, p=0.001), stage ≤II (HR of stage III vs. I+II is 17.77; p=0.016, HR of stage IV vs. I+II is 26.97, p=0.006), and albumin level ≥3g/dl (HR of albumin <3g/dl vs. ≥3g/dl is 2.46, p=0.044) were the most important prognostic factors (also, time to progression was related to these factors). There was no significant association between the genotypes and clinicopathologic parameters; however, good performance status, early stage and ≥3g/dl albumin level were found to be the most important prognostic factors for overall survival and progression-free survival.

Abstract
This article summarizes the impact of the pharmacogenetics of drug transporters expressed in the enterohepatic circulation on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs. The role of pharmacogenetics in the function of drug transporter proteins in vitro is now well established and evidence is rapidly accumulating from in vivo pharmacokinetic studies, which suggests that genetic variants of drug transporter proteins can translate into clinically relevant phenotypes. However, a large amount of conflicting information on the clinical relevance of drug transporter proteins has so far precluded the emergence of a clear picture regarding the role of drug transporter pharmacogenetics in medical practice. This is very well exemplified by the case of P-glycoprotein (MDR1, ABCB1). The challenge is now to develop pharmacogenetic models with sufficient predictive power to allow for translation into drug therapy. This will require a combination of pharmacogenetics of drug transporters, drug metabolism and pharmacodynamics of the respective drugs.

Abstract
Many conserved noncoding sequences function as transcriptional enhancers that regulate gene expression. Here, we report that protein-coding DNA also frequently contains enhancers functioning at the transcriptional level. We tested the enhancer activity of 31 protein-coding exons, which we chose based on strong sequence conservation between zebrafish and human, and occurrence in developmental genes, using a Tol2 transposable GFP reporter assay in zebrafish. For each exon we measured GFP expression in hundreds of embryos in 10 anatomies via a novel system that implements the voice-recognition capabilities of a cellular phone. We find that 24/31 (77%) exons drive GFP expression compared to a minimal promoter control, and 14/24 are anatomy-specific (expression in four anatomies or less). GFP expression driven by these coding enhancers frequently overlaps the anatomies where the host gene is expressed (60%), suggesting self-regulation. Highly conserved coding sequences and highly conserved noncoding sequences do not significantly differ in enhancer activity (coding: 24/31 vs. noncoding: 105/147) or tissue-specificity (coding: 14/24 vs. noncoding: 50/105). Furthermore, coding and noncoding enhancers display similar levels of the enhancer-related histone modification H3K4me1 (coding: 9/24 vs noncoding: 34/81). Meanwhile, coding enhancers are over three times as likely to contain an H3K4me1 mark as other exons of the host gene. Our work suggests that developmental transcriptional enhancers do not discriminate between coding and noncoding DNA and reveals widespread dual functions in protein-coding DNA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Genetic variants of ABCB1 gene contributed to cancer susceptibility and interindividual differences in chemotherapy response. Therefore, we investigated the relevance between genetic variations in ABCB1 gene and both risk and clinical outcomes of breast carcinoma. METHODS A case-control study was performed on the SNPs C3435T, C1236T and G2677T/A in 1,173 Chinese breast carcinoma patients and 1,244 age- and sex-matched controls. These SNPs were typed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assays. RESULTS We found the following: (1) ABCB1 C3435T, G2677T/A variants and haplotype 3435T-1236T-2677T significantly increased the risk of breast carcinoma [adjusted OR (95 % CI): 1.281 (1.021-1.285), 1.326 (1.182-1.487) and 1.707 (1.498-1.945), respectively]. (2) A significantly enhanced therapeutic response was observed in both C3435T variants and haplotype 3435T-1236T-2677T after neoadjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy (n = 148) [adjusted OR (95 % CI): 2.695 (1.172-6.211) and 8.064 (1.085-58.823), respectively]. (3) Cox proportional hazards regression models showed that the hazards ratio (HR) for progression-free survival (PFS) associated with C3435T CC genotype was 1.664 (95 % CI: 1.022-2.708, P = 0.041). Kaplan-Meier curve showed that C3435T CC carriers had a poor prognosis than those with CT/TT carriers after anthracycline-based chemotherapy (P = 0.043, n = 762). Furthermore, ABCB1 C3435T variants showed a significantly prolonged both PFS and overall survival (OS) in patients with triple-negative (ER-/PR-/HER2-) status (P = 0.001 and P = 0.016, respectively; n = 135). In addition, there was a significantly longer OS in patients with HER2-negative status who had G2677T/A variants (P = 0.036, n = 487). However, we did not find statistically significant association between C1236T genotypes and the risk or prognosis of breast carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that ABCB1 gene C3435T, G2677T/A variations and haplotype 3435T-1236T-2677T relate to the risk and clinical outcomes of breast carcinoma and may function as candidate molecular markers of anthracycline chemosensitivity in breast carcinoma.
