Human variability in polymorphic CYP2D6 metabolism: Implications for the risk assessment of chemicals in food and emerging designer drugs. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2021; 156:106760. [PMID: 34256299 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2021.106760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2020] [Revised: 07/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/04/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The major human cytochrome P450 CYP2D6 isoform enzyme plays important roles in the liver and in the brain with regards to xenobiotic metabolism. Xenobiotics as CYP2D6 substrates include a whole range of pharmaceuticals, pesticides and plant alkaloids to cite but a few. In addition, a number of endogenous compounds have been shown to be substrates of CYP2D6 including trace amines in the brain such as tyramine and 5-methoxytryptamine as well as anandamide and progesterone. Because of the polymorphic nature of CYP2D6, considerable inter-phenotypic and inter-ethnic differences in the pharmaco/toxicokinetics (PK/TK) and metabolism of CYP2D6 substrates exist with potential consequences on the pharmacology and toxicity of chemicals. Here, large extensive literature searches have been performed to collect PK data from published human studies for a wide range of pharmaceutical probe substrates and investigate human variability in CYP2D6 metabolism. The computed kinetic parameters resulted in the largest open source database, quantifying inter-phenotypic differences for the kinetics of CYP2D6 probe substrates in Caucasian and Asian populations, to date. The database is available in supplementary material (CYPD6 DB) and EFSA knowledge junction (DOI to added). Subsequently, meta-analyses using a hierarchical Bayesian model for markers of chronic oral exposure (oral clearance, area under the plasma concentration time curve) and acute oral exposure (maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) provided estimates of inter-phenotypic differences and CYP2D6-related uncertainty factors (UFs) for chemical risk assessment in Caucasian and Asian populations classified as ultra-rapid (UM), extensive (EMs), intermediate (IMs) and poor metabolisers (PMs). The model allowed the integration of inter-individual (i.e. inter-phenotypic and inter-ethnic), inter-compound and inter-study variability together with uncertainty in each PK parameter. Key findings include 1. Higher frequencies of PMs in Caucasian populations compared to Asian populations (>8% vs 1-2%) for which EM and IM were the most frequent phenotype. 2. Large inter-phenotypic differences in PK parameters for Caucasian EMs (coefficients of variation (CV) > 50%) compared with Caucasian PMs and Asian EMs and IMs (i.e CV < 40%). 3. Inter-phenotypic PK differences between EMs and PMs in Caucasian populations increase with the quantitative contribution of CYP2D6 for the metabolism (fm) for a range of substrates (fmCYP2D6 range: 20-95% of dose) (range: 1-54) to a much larger extent than those for Asian populations (range: 1-4). 4. Exponential meta-regressions between FmCYP2D6 in EMs and inter-phenotypic differences were also shown to differ between Caucasian and Asian populations as well as CYP2D6-related UFs. Finally, implications of these results for the risk assessment of food chemicals and emerging designer drugs of public health concern, as CYP2D6 substrates, are highlighted and include the integration of in vitro metabolism data and CYP2D6-variability distributions for the development of quantitative in vitro in vivo extrapolation models.

Abstract
Carboxylesterases (CES) are an important class of enzymes involved in the hydrolysis of a range of chemicals and show large inter-individual variability in vitro. An extensive literature search was performed to identify in vivo probe substrates for CES1 and CES2 together with their protein content and enzymatic activity. Human pharmacokinetic (PK) data on Cmax, clearance, and AUC were extracted from 89 publications and Bayesian meta-analysis was performed using a hierarchical model to derive CES-related variability distributions and related uncertainty factors (UF). The CES-related variability indicated that 97.5% of healthy adults are covered by the kinetic default UF (3.16), except for clopidogrel and dabigatran etexilate. Clopidogrel is metabolised for a small amount by the polymorphic CYP2C19, which can have an impact on the overall pharmacokinetics, while the variability seen for dabigatran etexilate might be due to differences in the absorption, since this can be influenced by food intake. The overall CES-related variability was moderate to high in vivo (<CV 50%), which might be due to possible polymorphism in the enzyme but also to the small sample size available per chemical. The presented CES-related variability can be used in combination with in vitro data to derive pathway-specific distributions.

Abstract
In chemical risk assessment, default uncertainty factors are used to account for interspecies and interindividual differences, and differences in toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics herein. However, these default factors come with little scientific support. Therefore, our aim was to develop an in vitro method, using acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition as a proof of principle, to assess both interspecies and interindividual differences in toxicodynamics. Electric eel enzyme and human blood of 20 different donors (12 men/8 women) were exposed to eight different compounds (chlorpyrifos, chlorpyrifos-oxon, phosmet, phosmet-oxon, diazinon, diazinon-oxon, pirimicarb, rivastigmine) and inhibition of AChE was measured using the Ellman method. The organophosphate parent compounds, chlorpyrifos, phosmet and diazinon, did not show inhibition of AChE. All other compounds showed concentration-dependent inhibition of AChE, with IC50s in human blood ranging from 0.2-29 µM and IC20s ranging from 0.1-18 µM, indicating that AChE is inhibited at concentrations relevant to the in vivo human situation. The oxon analogues were more potent inhibitors of electric eel AChE compared to human AChE. The opposite was true for carbamates, pointing towards interspecies differences for AChE inhibition. Human interindividual variability was low and ranged from 5-25%, depending on the concentration. This study provides a reliable in vitro method for assessing human variability in AChE toxicodynamics. The data suggest that the default uncertainty factor of ~ 3.16 may overestimate human variability for this toxicity endpoint, implying that specific toxicodynamic-related adjustment factors can support quantitative in vitro to in vivo extrapolations that link kinetic and dynamic data to improve chemical risk assessment.

Abstract
The input into the QIVIVE and Physiologically-Based kinetic and dynamic models of drug metabolising enzymes performance and their inter-individual differences significantly improve the modelling performance, supporting the development and integration of alternative approaches to animal testing. Bayesian meta-analyses allow generating and integrating statistical distributions with human in vitro metabolism data for quantitative in vitro-in vivo extrapolation. Such data are lacking on glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs). This paper reports for the first time results on the human variability of GST activities in healthy individuals, their tissue localisation and the frequencies of their major polymorphic variants by means of extensive literature search, data collection, data base creation and meta-analysis. A limited number of papers focussed on in vivo GST inter-individual differences in humans. Ex-vivo total GST activity without discriminating amongst isozymes is generally reported, resulting in a high inter-individual variability. The highest levels of cytosolic GSTs in humans are measured in the kidney, liver, adrenal glands and blood. The frequencies of GST polymorphisms for cytosolic isozymes in populations of different geographical ancestry were also presented. Bayesian meta-analyses to derive GST-related uncertainty factors provided uncertain estimates, due to the limited database. Considering the relevance of GST activities and their pivotal role in cellular adaptive response mechanisms to chemical stressors, further studies are needed to identify GST probe substrates for specific isozymes and quantify inter-individual differences.

Abstract
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are involved in phase II conjugation reactions of xenobiotics and differences in their isoform activities result in interindividual kinetic differences of UGT probe substrates. Here, extensive literature searches were performed to identify probe substrates (14) for various UGT isoforms (UGT1A1, UGT1A3, UGT1A4, UGT1A6, UGT1A9, UGT2B7 and UGT2B15) and frequencies of human polymorphisms. Chemical-specific pharmacokinetic data were collected in a database to quantify interindividual differences in markers of acute (Cmax) and chronic (area under the curve, clearance) exposure. Using this database, UGT-related uncertainty factors were derived and compared to the default factor (i.e. 3.16) allowing for interindividual differences in kinetics. Overall, results show that pharmacokinetic data are predominantly available for Caucasian populations and scarce for other populations of different geographical ancestry. Furthermore, the relationships between UGT polymorphisms and pharmacokinetic parameters are rarely addressed in the included studies. The data show that UGT-related uncertainty factors were mostly below the default toxicokinetic uncertainty factor of 3.16, with the exception of five probe substrates (1-OH-midazolam, ezetimibe, raltegravir, SN38 and trifluoperazine), with three of these substrates being metabolised by the polymorphic isoform 1A1. Data gaps and future work to integrate UGT-related variability distributions with in vitro data to develop quantitative in vitro-in vivo extrapolations in chemical risk assessment are discussed.

Abstract
Human variability in paraoxonase-1 (PON1) activities is driven by genetic polymorphisms that affect the internal dose of active oxons of organophosphorus (OP) insecticides. Here, an extensive literature search has been performed to collect human genotypic frequencies (i.e. L55M, Q192R, and C-108T) in subgroups from a range of geographical ancestry and PON1 activities in three probe substrates (paraoxon, diazoxon and phenyl acetate). Bayesian meta-analyses were performed to estimate variability distributions for PON1 activities and PON1-related uncertainty factors (UFs), while integrating quantifiable sources of inter-study, inter-phenotypic and inter-individual differences. Inter-phenotypic differences were quantified using the population with high PON1 activity as the reference group. Results from the meta-analyses provided PON1 variability distributions and these can be implemented in generic physiologically based kinetic models to develop quantitative in vitro in vivo extrapolation models. PON1-related UFs in the Caucasian population were above the default toxicokinetic UF of 3.16 for two specific genotypes namely -108CC using diazoxon as probe substrate and, -108CT, -108TT, 55MM and 192QQ using paraoxon as probe substrate. However, integration of PON1 genotypic frequencies and activity distributions showed that all UFs were within the default toxicokinetic UF. Quantitative inter-individual differences in PON1 activity are important for chemical risk assessment particularly with regards to the potential sensitivity to organophosphates' toxicity.
