Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) polymorphisms on mycophenolic acid (MPA) metabolism in renal transplant patients. A total of 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of UGT1A1, UGT1A7, UGT1A8, UGT1A9, UGT1A10, and UGT2B7 were genotyped in 79 renal transplant patients. The associations of SNPs and clinical factors with dose-adjusted MPA area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC/D), the dose-adjusted plasma concentration (C0/D) of 7-O-MPA-glucuronide (MPAG), and the dose-adjusted plasma concentration (C0/D) of acyl MPAG (AcMPAG) were analyzed. In the univariate analysis, UGT1A1 rs4148323, age, and anion gap were associated with MPA AUC/D. MPA AUC/D was higher in patients with the GA genotype of UGT1A1 rs4148323 compared to patients with the GG genotype. UGT1A1 rs4148323, UGT1A9 rs2741049 and clinical factors, including age, serum total bilirubin, adenosine deaminase, anion gap, urea, and creatinine, were associated with MPAG C0/D. UGT2B7 rs7438135, UGT2B7 rs7439366, and UGT2B7 rs7662029 also were associated with AcMPAG C0/D. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that UGT1A9 rs2741049 and indirect bilirubin were negatively correlated with MPAG C0/D (P = .001; P = .039), and UGT2B7 rs7662029 was positively correlated with AcMPAG C0/D (P = .008). This study demonstrates a significant influence of UGT1A9 rs2741049 and UGT2B7 rs7662029 polymorphisms on the metabolism of MPA in vivo.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effects of UGT2B7 rs7662029 and rs7439366 polymorphisms on plasma buprenorphine (BUP) concentration and different treatment responses in a sample of 109 patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) treated with sublingual BUP/naloxone. Polymorphisms were analysed by PCR-RFLP. Plasma concentrations of BUP and its metabolite norbuprenorphine were detected by LC-MS/MS. Craving, withdrawal, depression and anxiety were measured by appropriate scales. OUD patients with rs7439366 CC or rs7662029 GG genotypes had significantly lower dose-normalized (BUP/D) and dose/kg-normalized BUP (BUP/D.kg-1) levels than those who were CT or AA carriers. Significant associations between UGT2B7 rs7662029 and increased craving (p = 0.037) and withdrawal symptoms (p = 0.029) were detected. Our findings were pointing to an important role of UGT2B7 in the metabolism of sublingual BUP/naloxone in the heroin addicts for the first time. A novel PCR-RFLP assay was developed for the determination of UGT2B7 rs7662029 polymorphism, based on utilizing novel restriction enzyme.

Abstract
The genetic background of Brazilians encompasses Amerindian, African, and European components as a result of the colonization of an already Amerindian inhabited region by Europeans, associated to a massive influx of Africans. Other migratory flows introduced into the Brazilian population genetic components from Asia and the Middle East. Currently, Brazil has a highly admixed population and, therefore, the study of genetic factors in the context of health or disease in Brazil is a challenging and remarkably interesting subject. This phenomenon is exemplified by the genetic variant CCR5Δ32, a 32 base-pair deletion in the CCR5 gene. CCR5Δ32 originated in Europe, but the time of origin as well as the selective pressures that allowed the maintenance of this variant and the establishment of its current frequencies in the different human populations is still a field of debates. Due to its origin, the CCR5Δ32 allele frequency is high in European-derived populations (~10%) and low in Asian and African native human populations. In Brazil, the CCR5Δ32 allele frequency is intermediate (4-6%) and varies on the Brazilian States, depending on the migratory history of each region. CCR5 is a protein that regulates the activity of several immune cells, also acting as the main HIV-1 co-receptor. The CCR5 expression is influenced by CCR5Δ32 genotypes. No CCR5 expression is observed in CCR5Δ32 homozygous individuals. Thus, the CCR5Δ32 has particular effects on different diseases. At the population level, the effect that CCR5Δ32 has on European populations may be different than that observed in highly admixed populations. Besides less evident due to its low frequency in admixed groups, the effect of the CCR5Δ32 variant may be affected by other genetic traits. Understanding the effects of CCR5Δ32 on Brazilians is essential to predict the potential use of pharmacological CCR5 modulators in Brazil. Therefore, this study reviews the impacts of the CCR5Δ32 on the Brazilian population, considering infectious diseases, inflammatory conditions, and cancer. Finally, this article provides a general discussion concerning the impacts of a European-derived variant, the CCR5Δ32, on a highly admixed population.

Abstract
Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is a common immunosuppressive drug for kidney transplantation patients, and is characterized by a narrow therapeutic index and significant individual variability. UGTs are the main enzymes responsible for the metabolism of MPA. Although, many studies have focused on the relationship between UGT polymorphisms and pharmacokinetics and adverse reactions of MPA, the conclusion are controversial. We reviewed the relevant literature and summarized the significant influences of UGT polymorphisms, such as UGT1A8 (rs1042597, rs17863762), UGT1A9 (rs72551330, rs6714486, rs17868320, rs2741045, rs2741045) and UGT2B7 (rs7438135, rs7439366, rs7662029), on the pharmacokinetics of MPA and its metabolites and adverse reactions. The review provides a reference for guiding the individualized administration of MPA and reducing adverse reactions to MPA.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate genetic variants affecting mycophenolic acid (MPA) metabolism in Chinese renal transplant recipients. METHODS Total 11 SNPs of UGT1A9, UGT1A8, UGT2B7, ABCC2, ABCG2 and SLCO1B3 were genotyped in 408 Chinese renal transplant recipients. Associations between SNPs and MPA concentration/dose ratio (C0/D) were analyzed using different genetic models. Multivariate linear regression was used to analyze associations between log (C0/D) and clinical factors. Results: After adjustment by clinical factors, UGT2B7 rs7662029 was associated with log (C0/D) using a dominant (p = 0.041) and an additive (p = 0.038) model, ABCC2 rs717620 was associated with log (C0/D) using a recessive model (p = 0.019). Using additive model, SNP-SNP interactions were identified (p = 0.002) between ABCC2 rs717620 and UGT1A9 rs2741049, with interactions (p = 0.002) between ABCC2 rs717620 and UGT1A8 rs1042597. Age, albumin and serum creatinine were associated with log (C0/D). CONCLUSION rs7662029 and rs717620 may affect MPA pharmacokinetics. SNP-SNP interactions and clinical factors may have significant effects on MPA metabolism.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the potential impact of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the FK506-binding protein (FKBP)-calcineurin (CaN)-nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) signaling pathway on the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (TAC) in Chinese renal transplant patients. METHODS Seventy-seven tag SNPs were detected in 146 patients who were on TAC-based maintenance immunosuppression and who followed up for at least 2 years. The relationships of these polymorphisms with clinical outcomes such as acute rejection, acute nephrotoxicity, pneumonia, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were explored. For the FKBP1A rs6041749 polymorphism, which has a significant association with renal function over time, a preliminary functional analysis was performed using a dual-luciferase reporter gene system. RESULTS The patients with FKBP1A rs6041749 TT genotype had a more stable eGFR level than CC and CT carriers (P = 2.08 × 10-8) during the 2 years following transplantation. Dual-luciferase reporter assay results showed that the rs6041749 C variant could enhance the relative luciferase activity compared with the T variant, which indicated that the rs6041749 C allele may increase the FKBP1A gene transcription. In addition, we did not find any association between these genetic variants and the risk of acute rejection, acute nephrotoxicity, and pneumonia in renal transplant patients receiving TAC-based immunosuppression. CONCLUSIONS FKBP1A rs6041749 C allele carriers are at higher risk for eGFR deterioration. The variant might serve as a biomarker to predict allograft function in renal transplant patients.

Abstract
Humans possess three cytochrome P450 enzymes in the 2A subfamily (2A6, 2A7, and 2A13). P450 2A13 is mainly expressed in the human trachea and lung, whereas P450 2A6 is found in human liver. The P450 2A13 enzyme may be considered as the primary enzyme responsible for metabolic activation of many tobacco-specific carcinogens. Genetic variations significantly influence the toxicological consequences attributed to tobacco smoking. The aim of this study was to examine the in vitro functional activities of five P450 2A13 genetic variations (R257C, 133_134insT, R101Q, I331T, and R257C/I331T) in P450 2A13*2, *3, *4, and *10 alleles. Mutant clones were constructed and their recombinant enzymes were expressed in Escherichia coli. P450 2A13 mutants containing R257C, 133_134insT, I331T, and R257C/I331T displayed P450 holoenzyme spectra. The R101Q mutant was not apparently expressed. P450 2A13 enzymes displayed the typical type I binding spectra to coumarin and the calculated binding affinities of R257C, R257C/I331T, and 133_134insT mutants were decreased approximately three- to sevenfold. In catalytic analyses of purified mutant enzymes for coumarin and nicotine, the R257C and I331T mutants exhibited lower kcat values with catalytic efficiencies reduced up to approximately 20%. The double mutation of R257C/I331T induced increased Km values and diminished kcat values that resulted in >50% decrease in catalytic efficiencies. For 133_134insT mutant, catalytic activities were not markedly saturated but the measured rates at the highest concentrations were significantly lower than those of the wild-type or other mutant enzymes. Functional analysis of these variations in P450 2A13 allelic variants may help to understand the consequences of P450 2A13 polymorphism in bioactivation of many tobacco-derived carcinogens.
