Abstract
Our study is the first study to investigate the effect of SNPs in CYP3A5, CYP3A4, ABCB1 and POR genes on the incidence of tremors, nephrotoxicity, and diabetes mellitus. A total of 223 renal transplant patients receiving tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) were recruited. Both adults and children patients participated in the study. Genotyping was performed using PROFLEX-PCR followed by RFLP. MPA and tacrolimus plasma concentrations were measured by immunoassay. The AUC0-12h of MMF was estimated by a Bayesian method. We found a statistically significant association between the CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A4*1B genotypes and the tacrolimus exposure. We found a lower occurrence of nephrotoxicity (p = 0.03), tremor (p = 0.01), and new-onset diabetes (p = 0.002) associated with CYP3A5*1 allele. The CYP3A4*1B allele was significantly associated with a lower occurrence of new-onset diabetes (p = 0.026). The CYP3A5*1 allele was significantly associated with an increased risk of acute and chronic rejection (p = 0.03 and p < 0.001, respectively). Our results support the usefulness of tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in pre-kidney transplant assessments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to clarify the role of genetic factors on posttransplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) risk. METHODS Relevant publications were systematically retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library up to December 2020. Data from eligible case-control and cohort studies were extracted for qualitative and quantitative analyses. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to estimate the association between gene polymorphisms and PTDM in the quantitative meta-analysis. RESULTS A total of 43 eligible articles were identified, and 16 studies on 9 DNA variants from 8 genes were included in the meta-analysis. TCF7L2 rs7903146 was significantly associated with PTDM risk in 5 genetic models (OR (95% CI): allelic: 1.59 (1.17-2.16), P=0.003; dominant recessive: 1.62 (1.14, 2.31), P=0.007; recessive: 1.87 (1.18, 2.94), P=0.007; homozygote: 2.21 (1.23, 3.94), P=0.008; and heterozygote 1.50 (1.08, 2.10), P=0.017). KCNQ1 rs2237892 was significantly correlated with PTDM risk in 3 genetic models (allelic: 0.68 (0.58, 0.81), P < 0.001; dominant: 0.6 (049, 0.74), P < 0.001; and heterozygote: 0.61 (0.48, 0.76), P < 0.001). KCNJ11 rs5219 was significantly linked with PTDM in the recessive genetic model (1.59 (1.01, 2.50), P=0.047). No significant correlations of PTDM with TCF7L2 rs12255372, SLC30A8 rs13266634, PPARγ rs1801282, CDKN2A/B rs10811661, HHEX rs1111875, and IGF2BP2 rs4402960 polymorphisms were found. CONCLUSIONS The gene polymorphisms of TCF7L2 rs7903146, KCNQ1 rs2237892, and KCNJ11 rs5219 may predispose kidney transplant recipients to PTDM. Large sample size studies on diverse ethnic populations were warranted to confirm our findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE Genotype-phenotype correlation in congenital 21 hydroxylase deficiency is strong but by no means absolute. Indeed, clinical and hormonal features may vary among patients carrying similar CYP21A2 mutations, suggesting that modifier genes may contribute to the phenotype. Aim of the present study was to evaluate whether polymorphisms in the p450 oxidoreductase (POR) gene may affect clinical features in patients with 21 hydroxylase deficiency METHODS: Sequencing of the POR gene was performed in 96 patients with 21 hydroxylase deficiency (49 classic, 47 non-classic) and 43 control subjects. RESULTS Prevalence of POR polymorphisms in patients with 21 hydroxylase was comparable to controls and known databases. The rs2228104 polymorphism was more frequently associated with non-classic vs classic 21 hydroxylase deficiency (allelic risk 7.09; 95% C.I. 1.4-29.5, p < 0.05). Classic 21 hydroxylase-deficient carriers of the minor allele in the rs2286822/rs2286823 haplotype presented more frequently the salt-wasting form (allelic risk 1.375; 95% C.I. 1.138-1.137), more severe Prader stage at birth (allelic risk 3.85; 95% C.I. 3.78-3.92), higher ACTH levels, and younger age at diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Polymorphisms in the POR gene are associated with clinical features of 21 hydroxylase deficiency both as regards predisposition to classic vs non-classic forms and severity of classic adrenal hyperplasia.

Abstract
End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is a main public health problem, the prevalence of which is continuously increasing worldwide. Due to adverse effects of renal replacement therapies, kidney transplantation seems to be the optimal form of therapy with significantly improved survival, quality of life and diminished overall costs compared with dialysis. However, post-transplant patients frequently suffer from post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) which an important risk factor for cardiovascular and cardiovascular-related deaths after transplantation. The management of post-transplant diabetes resembles that of diabetes in the general population as it is based on strict glycemic control as well as screening and treatment of common complications. Lifestyle interventions accompanied by the tailoring of immunosuppressive regimen may be of key importance to mitigate PTDM-associated complications in kidney transplant patients. More transplant-specific approach can include the exchange of tacrolimus with an alternative immunosuppressant (cyclosporine or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor), the decrease or cessation of corticosteroid therapy and caution in the prescribing of diuretics since they are independently connected with post-transplant diabetes. Early identification of high-risk patients for cardiovascular diseases enables timely introduction of appropriate therapeutic strategy and results in higher survival rates for patients with a transplanted kidney.

FKBP-CaN-NFAT pathway polymorphisms selected by in silico biological function prediction are associated with tacrolimus efficacy in renal transplant patients. Eur J Pharm Sci 2020; 160:105694. [PMID: 33383132 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2020.105694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2020] [Revised: 11/26/2020] [Accepted: 12/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
AIM The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential effects of genetic variations in the FKBP-CaN-NFAT pathway on clinical events associated with tacrolimus efficacy in Chinese renal transplant patients. METHODS One hundred and forty Chinese renal transplant patients of Han ethnicity with over five years of follow-up were enrolled in our study. A pool of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (1284 SNPs) was extracted from the Ensembl database according to chromosomal regions of the candidate genes. Next, 109 SNPs were screened out from this pool using multiple bioinformatics tools for subsequent genotyping using the MALDI-TOF-MS method. The associations of these candidate SNPs with acute rejection, nephrotoxicity, pneumonia and post-transplant estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were explored. RESULTS Fourty-four SNPs were found to be associated with tacrolimus-related clinical drug response. Specifically, eight SNPs were associated with the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection, four SNPs were associated with the rate of nephrotoxicity, 16 SNPs were correlated with the onset of pneumonia, and 26 SNPs were found to significantly influence post-transplant eGFR trend. An elaborate scoring system was implemented to prioritize the validation of these potentially causal SNPs. In particular, NFATC2 rs150348438 (G>T) performed well during integrative scoring (Ptotal=23.8) and was significantly associated with the occurrence of pneumonia (P = 0.0035, HR=0.91, 95% CI=0.85-0.97) and post-transplant eGFR levels (P = 0.000003). CONCLUSIONS NFATC2 rs150348438, rs6013219, rs1052653, and NFATC1 rs754093, ranking high in scoring, significantly affected the post-transplant eGFR and the incidence of pneumonia, acute rejection, and nephrotoxicity in renal transplant patients taking tacrolimus. Those SNPs may alter the expression and regulation of FKBP-CaN-NFAT pathway by influencing transcription regulation, mature mRNA degradation and RNA splicing, or protein coding. Critical SNPs of high ranking may serve as PD-associated pharmacogenetic biomarkers indicating individual response variability of TAC, and thus aid the clinical management of renal transplant patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In kidney transplantation, tacrolimus (TAC) is at the cornerstone of current immunosuppressive strategies. Though because of its narrow therapeutic index, it is critical to ensure that TAC levels are maintained within this sharp window through reactive adjustments. This would allow maximizing efficiency while limiting drug-associated toxicity. However, TAC high intra- and inter-patient pharmacokinetic (PK) variability makes it more laborious to accurately predict the appropriate dosage required for a given patient. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the state-of-the-art knowledge regarding drug interactions, demographic and pharmacogenetics factors as predictors of TAC PK. We provide a scoring index for each association to grade its relevance and we present practical recommendations, when possible for clinical practice. EXPERT OPINION The management of TAC concentration in transplanted kidney patients is as critical as it is challenging. Recommendations based on rigorous scientific evidences are lacking as knowledge of potential predictors remains limited outside of DDIs. Awareness of these limitations should pave the way for studies looking at demographic and pharmacogenetic factors as well as gut microbiota composition in order to promote tailored treatment plans. Therapeutic approaches considering patients' clinical singularities may help allowing to maintain appropriate concentration of TAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The immunosuppressants tacrolimus and mycophenolate are important components to the success of organ transplantation, but are also associated with adverse effects, such as nephrotoxicity, anemia, leukopenia, and new-onset diabetes after transplantation. In this report, we attempted to identify genetic variants which are associated with these adverse outcomes. METHODS We performed a genome-wide association study, using a genotyping array tailored specifically for transplantation outcomes containing 722 147 single nucleotide polymorphisms, and 2 cohorts of kidney allograft recipients-a discovery cohort and a confirmation cohort-to identify and then confirm genetic variants associated with immunosuppressant pharmacokinetics and adverse outcomes. RESULTS Several genetic variants were found to be associated with tacrolimus trough concentrations. We did not confirm variants associated with the other phenotypes tested although several suggestive variants were identified. CONCLUSIONS These results show that adverse effects associated with tacrolimus and mycophenolate are complex, and recipient risk is not determined by a few genetic variants with large effects with but most likely are due to many variants, each with small effect sizes, and clinical factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The leading cause of death in both chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal transplant patients is cardiovascular events. Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTx-DM), which is a major cardiovascular risk factor, is a metabolic disorder that affects 5.5-60.2% of renal allograft recipients by 1-year posttransplant (PTx). PTx-DM has been associated with a negative impact on patient and graft outcomes and survival. RECENT FINDINGS Individuals who develop PTx-DM are usually prone to this condition prior to and/or after developing CKD. Genetic factors, obesity, inflammation, medications and CKD all are risk factors for PTx-diabetes mellitus. The path to development of disease continues PTx frequently augmented by the use of diabetogenic maintenance immunosuppressive and some nonimmunosuppressive medications. These risk factors are usually associated with an increase in insulin resistance, a decrease in insulin gene expression and/or β-cell dysfunction and apoptosis. SUMMARY Some new anti-diabetes mellitus medications may help to improve the overall outcome; however, there is a real need for developing a preventive strategy. Identifying and targeting PTx-DM risk factors may help to guide the development of an effective programme. This could include the adoption of nondiabetogenic immunosuppressive protocols for high-risk patients.

Abstract
Background: Tacrolimus (Tac, or FK506), a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), is the first-line immu-nosuppressant which consists of the footstone as immunosuppressive regimens in kidney transplantation. However, the drug toxicity and the significant differences of pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynam-ics (PD) among individuals are hidden troubles for clinical application. Recently, emerging evidences of Tac pharmacogenetics (PG) regarding drug absorption, metabolism, disposition, excretion and response are discovered for better understanding of this drug. Method: We reviewed the published articles regarding the Tac PG and its effects on PK and PD in kidney transplantation. In addition, we summarized information on polygenic algorithms. Results: The polymorphism of genes encoding metabolic enzymes and transporters related to Tac were largely investigated, but the results were inconsistent. In addition to CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and P-gp (also known as ABCB1), single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) might also affect the PK and PD parameters of Tac. Conclusion: The correlation between Tac PK, PD and PG is very complex. Although many factors need to be verified, it is envisaged that thorough understanding of PG may assist clinicians to predict the optimal starting dosage, help adjust the maintenance regimen, as well as identify high risk patients for adverse ef-fects or drug inefficacy

Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia are frequently observed after organ transplantation. It is known that in these disorders the fatty acid metabolism is impaired. The aim of this study was to compare the fatty acid profile in the heart and renal transplant recipients who developed metabolic disorders since there is no such research available. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 55 patients treated with tacrolimus (Tac) after heart (n = 14; mean age: 60.4 ± 9.1) or renal (n = 41; mean age: 51 ± 13) transplantation. Diabetes and hyperlipidemia was present in 35.7% and 28.5% of heart transplant recipients, and 19.5% and 41% of renal transplant recipients. Concentrations of fatty acid in phospholipids fraction in serum were measured by gas chromatography. RESULTS The concentration of C20:5 fatty acid was lower in heart transplant recipients, as compared to renal transplant recipients (p = 0.001), whereas the level of C20+C18:3 fatty acid and the ratio of n-6/n-3 was higher (p = 0.01; p = 0.03, respectively). The observed differences were not related to metabolic disorders. Negative correlation between C16:1 and eGFR was seen in heart transplant recipients (p = 001). In renal transplant recipients with metabolic disorders, the concentration of C20:5 was correlated positively whereas the n-6/n-3 ratio was correlated negatively with eGFR (p < 0.001, p = 0.01, respectively). Hyperlipidemic renal transplant recipients had higher concentration of C20:2 (p = 0.02), C20:4 (p = 0.05), n-6 (0.04) and total fatty acid (p = 0.01) than patients without metabolic disorders. CONCLUSION The fatty acid profile differs depending on the transplanted organ, but the differences are not related to the metabolic disorders. The role of fatty acid in kidney function varies between heart transplant recipients and renal transplant recipients and depends on type of fatty acid.

Drug-induced hyperglycaemia and diabetes: pharmacogenomics perspectives. Arch Pharm Res 2018; 41:725-736.

Abstract
Drug-induced diabetes is widely reported in clinical conditions, and it is becoming a global issue because of its potential to increase the risk of severe cardiovascular complications. However, which drug mechanisms exert their diabetogenic effects and why the effects present significant inter-individual differences remain largely unknown. Pharmacogenomics, which is the study of how genomic variation influences drug responses, provides an explanation for individual differences in drug-induced diabetes. We highlight that pharmacogenomics can be involved in regulating the expression of genes in signaling pathways related to the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of drugs or the pathogenesis of diabetes, contributing to the differences in drug-induced glucose impairment. The pharmacogenomics studies of the major diabetogenic drugs are reviewed, including calcineurin inhibitors, antipsychotics, hormones, and antihypertensive drugs. We intend to elucidate the genetic basis of drug-induced diabetes and pave the way for the precise use of these drugs in the clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a serious metabolic complication after kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was to explore the association of clinical variables and five selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with PTDM in Chinese Han renal allograft recipients taking tacrolimus (TAC). METHODS A total of 129 non-diabetic, primary, Chinese Han renal allograft recipients treated with TAC were enrolled. Five SNPs (CYP3A5 rs776741, rs776746, rs15524, CYP24A1 rs2296241, and PPARG rs1801282) were genotyped and analyzed. RESULTS Among 129 recipients, 17 (13.2%) developed PTDM. Both univariate and multivariate analysis demonstrated that age over 50 years old and CYP24A1 rs2296241 A allele were independently correlated with the development of PTDM, while no significant differences was observed in TAC pharmacokinetics and CYP3A5, PPARG polymorphisms between two groups. CONCLUSIONS Patients with advanced age and CYP24A1 rs2296241 A allele had an increased risk of PTDM after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Tacrolimus (Tac) is a profoundly effective immunosuppressant that reduces the risk of rejection after solid organ transplantation. However, its use is hampered by its narrow therapeutic window along with its highly variable pharmacological (pharmacokinetic [PK] and pharmacodynamic [PD]) profile. Part of this variability is explained by genetic polymorphisms affecting the metabolic pathway. The integration of CYP3A4 and CY3A5 genotype in tacrolimus population-based PK (PopPK) modeling approaches has been proven to accurately predict the dose requirement to reach the therapeutic window. The objective of the present study was to develop an accurate PopPK model in a cohort of 59 kidney transplant patients to deliver this information to clinicians in a clear and actionable manner. We conducted a non-parametric non-linear effects PopPK modeling analysis in Pmetrics®. Patients were genotyped for the CYP3A4∗22 and CYP3A5∗3 alleles and were classified into 3 different categories [poor-metabolizers (PM), Intermediate-metabolizers (IM) or extensive-metabolizers (EM)]. A one-compartment model with double gamma absorption route described very accurately the tacrolimus PK. In covariate analysis, only CYP3A genotype was retained in the final model (Δ-2LL = -73). Our model estimated that tacrolimus concentrations were 33% IC95%[20–26%], 41% IC95%[36–45%] lower in CYP3A IM and EM when compared to PM, respectively. Virtually, we proved that defining different starting doses for PM, IM and EM would be beneficial by ensuring better probability of target concentrations attainment allowing us to define new dosage recommendations according to patient CYP3A genetic profile.

Abstract
Posttransplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is one of the major metabolic complications after transplantation of solid organs including the kidney. This type of diabetes mellitus affects allograft survival, cardiovascular complications and overall patient survival. The modifiable risk factors that contribute to PTDM include obesity, some viral infections (eg, hepatitis C virus, cytomegalovirus) and especially immunosuppressive drugs including corticosteroids, tacrolimus, cyclosporine and sirolimus. Currently, predisposing genetic factors have been considered important in PTDM development. The commonly evaluated genetic determinants include genes encoding transcription factors, cytokines, chemokines, adipokines, ionic channels, glucose transporters, cytochrome P450 enzymes and other enzymes metabolizing drugs, drug transporters. Unfortunately, the results of studies are inconclusive and differ between populations. There is a need for large genome-wide association study to identify the genetic risk factors associated with PTDM development.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tacrolimus (Tac) is effective in preventing acute rejection but has considerable toxicity and inter-individual variability in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Part of this is explained by polymorphisms in genes encoding Tac-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. A better understanding of Tac pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics may help to minimize different outcomes amongst transplant recipients by personalizing immunosuppression. AREAS COVERED The pharmacogenetic contribution of Tac metabolism will be examined, with a focus on recent discoveries, new developments and ethnic considerations. EXPERT OPINION The strongest and most consistent association in pharmacogenetics is between the CYP3A5 genotype and Tac dose requirement, with CYP3A5 expressers having a ~ 40-50% higher dose requirement compared to non-expressers. Two recent randomized-controlled clinical trials using CYP3A5 genotype, however, did not show a decrease in acute rejections nor reduced toxicity. CYP3A4*22, CYP3A4*26, and POR*28 are also associated with Tac dose requirements and may be included to provide the expected improvement of Tac therapy. Studies focusing on the intracellular drug concentrations and on calcineurin inhibitor-induced nephrotoxicity also seem promising. For all studies, however, the ethnic prevalence of genotypes should be taken into account, as this may significantly impact the effect of pre-emptive genotyping.

Abstract
PURPOSE New onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is a serious complication following solid organ transplantation. There is a genetic contribution to NODAT and we have conducted comprehensive meta-analysis of available genetic data in kidney transplant populations. METHODS Relevant articles investigating the association between genetic markers and NODAT were identified by searching PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar. SNPs described in a minimum of three studies were included for analysis using a random effects model. The association between identified variants and NODAT was calculated at the per-study level to generate overall significance values and effect sizes. RESULTS Searching the literature returned 4,147 citations. Within the 36 eligible articles identified, 18 genetic variants from 12 genes were considered for analysis. Of these, three were significantly associated with NODAT by meta-analysis at the 5% level of significance; CDKAL1 rs10946398 p = 0.006 OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.11-1.85 (n = 696 individuals), KCNQ1 rs2237892 p = 0.007 OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.10-1.86 (n = 1,270 individuals), and TCF7L2 rs7903146 p = 0.01 OR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.07-1.85 (n = 2,967 individuals). CONCLUSION Evaluating cumulative evidence for SNPs associated with NODAT in kidney transplant recipients has revealed three SNPs associated with NODAT. An adequately powered, dense genome-wide association study will provide more information using a carefully defined NODAT phenotype.

Abstract
AIM Determine the effect of the genetic variants beyond CYP3A5*3 on tacrolimus disposition. PATIENTS & METHODS We studied genetic correlates of tacrolimus trough concentrations with POR*28, CYP3A4*22 and ABCC2 haplotypes in a large, ethnically diverse kidney transplant cohort (n = 2008). RESULTS Subjects carrying one or more CYP3A5*1 alleles had lower tacrolimus trough concentrations (p = 9.2 × 10(-75)). The presence of one or two POR*28 alleles was associated with a 4.63% reduction in tacrolimus trough concentrations after adjusting for CYP3A5*1 and clinical factors (p = 0.037). In subset analyses, POR*28 was significant only in CYP3A5*3/*3 carriers (p = 0.03). The CYP3A4*22 variant and the ABBC2 haplotypes were not associated. CONCLUSION This study confirmed that CYP3A5*1 was associated with lower tacrolimus trough concentrations. POR*28 was associated with decreased tacrolimus trough concentrations although the effect was small possibly through enhanced CYP3A4 enzyme activity. CYP3A4*22 and ABCC2 haplotypes did not influence tacrolimus trough concentrations. Original submitted 19 December 2014; Revision submitted 2 April 2015.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pharmacogenomics is the study of differences in drug response on the basis of individual genetic background. With rapidly advancing genomic technologies and decreased costs of genotyping, the field of pharmacogenomics continues to develop. Application to patients with kidney disease provides growing opportunities for improving drug therapy. RECENT FINDINGS Pharmacogenomics studies are lacking in patients with chronic kidney disease and dialysis, but are abundant in the kidney transplant field. A potentially clinically actionable genetic variant exists in the CYP3A5 gene, with the initial tacrolimus dose selection being optimized based on CYP3A5 genotype. Although many pharmacogenomics studies have focused on transplant immunosuppression pharmacokinetics, an expanding literature on pharmacodynamic outcomes, such as calcineurin inhibitor toxicity and new onset diabetes, is providing new information on patients at risk. SUMMARY Appropriately powered pharmacogenomics studies with well-defined phenotypes are needed to validate existing studies and unearth new findings in patients with kidney disease, especially the chronic kidney disease and dialysis population.

Abstract
The rs7903146 and rs13266634 polymorphisms in the TCF7L2 and SLC30A8 genes, respectively, have been reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes. However, little is known about the association of these polymorphisms with post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM). To study this linkage, we determined a distribution of allele and genotype frequencies in Asian Indians. 42 PTDM and 98 non-PTDM subjects were recruited. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis was performed to detect for rs7903146 and rs13266634 polymorphisms. The clinical details and statistical analysis for PTDM and non-PTDM subjects were recorded. Our results observed higher frequencies of the minor alleles in rs7903146 and rs13266634 polymorphisms in the PTDM group compared to the non-PTDM subjects. The allele frequencies also found to be significantly associated with PTDM (rs7903146: T vs C: OR-2.6; (95%CI: 1.2-5.6); p = 0.01; rs13266634: T vs C: OR-2.0; (95%CI: 1.1-3.4); p = 0.01). These findings suggest that rs7903146 and rs13266634 polymorphisms are associated with PTDM in the Asian Indian population despite a relatively small study group.

Abstract
Recent efforts have been made to identify genetic markers of CYP3A4 enzymatic activity within genes encoding for regulatory elements. The aim of the current study was to investigate the impact of polymorphism of PPARA and POR genes on tacrolimus (TAC) dose-adjusted trough concentration and risk of new-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT). A total of 241 White kidney transplant patients were genotyped for three functional single nucleotide polymorphisms: rs1057868 (*28) in POR, rs4253728:G>A, and rs4823613:A>G in PPARA. No significant genotype-dependent differences in TAC dose-adjusted trough concentration were observed for either POR or PPARA variants. No significant differences in the incidence of NODAT were observed between patients stratified by PPARA and POR genotypes. The frequency of NODAT among PPARA rs4253728 AA homozygotes (42%) was higher compared with heterozygotes (22%) and GG homozygotes (19%), but the difference was not significant. Testing TAC-medicated renal transplant recipients for POR and PPARA variants seems to have limited clinical application.
