Abstract
Drug-induced hepatotoxicity is a leading cause of drug withdrawal from the market. High-throughput screening utilizing in vitro liver models is critical for early-stage liver toxicity testing. Traditionally, monolayer human hepatocytes or immortalized liver cell lines (e.g., HepG2, HepaRG) have been used to test compound liver toxicity. However, monolayer-cultured liver cells sometimes lack the metabolic competence to mimic the in vivo condition and are therefore largely appropriate for short-term toxicological testing. They may not, however, be adequate for identifying chronic and recurring liver damage caused by drugs. Recently, several three-dimensional (3D) liver models have been developed. These 3D liver models better recapitulate normal liver function and metabolic capacity. This review describes the current development of 3D liver models that can be used to test drugs/chemicals for their pharmacologic and toxicologic effects, as well as the advantages and limitations of using these 3D liver models for high-throughput screening.

Nakanishi G, Bertagnolli LS, Pita-Oliveira M, Scudeler MM, Torres-Loureiro S, Almeida-Dantas T, Alves MLC, Cirino HS, Rodrigues-Soares F. GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms in healthy volunteers - a worldwide systematic review. Drug Metab Rev 2022; 54:37-45. [PMID: 35103568 DOI: 10.1080/03602532.2022.2036996] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
The GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes encode homonymous enzymes, which are responsible for the detoxification of several substances potentially harmful to the human body, such as air pollution, drugs, pesticides, and tobacco. However, some individuals may present a complete deletion of these genes and, consequently, an enzyme deficiency leading to an inadequate metabolism and, therefore, a higher susceptibility to some clinical conditions. Interethnic variations have also been described for both genes, making necessary the study of the deletion frequencies of GSTM1 and GSTT1 in different populations around the world. So, the aim of this study was to enable the synthesis and discussion of the main population differences of GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms in healthy volunteers. Searches were performed in the PubMed database, including 533 articles and 178,566 individuals in the analyses. We found an overrepresentation of European individuals and studies, and an underrepresentation of non-European ethnicities. Moreover, there are significant frequency differences among distinct ethnic groups: East Asians present the highest frequencies worldwide for GSTM1 and GSTT1 deletions, which could suggest higher disorders risk for this population; in contrast, Sub-Saharan Africans presented the lowest frequency of GSTM1 worldwide, corroborating evolution inferences performed previously for other genes codifying metabolism enzymes. Also, admixture is a relevant component when analyzing frequency values for both genes, but further studies focusing on this subject are warranted.

Abstract
Anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatitis (ATD- induced hepatitis) has been linked to polymorphisms in genes encoding drug metabolizing enzymes. N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2), cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) and glutathione S-transferase (loci GSTM1 and GSTT1) are involved in the metabolism of isoniazid, the most toxic drug for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). This study was designed to determine the frequency and to evaluate whether polymorphisms at CYP2E1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes are associated with drug response, as well as to identify clinical risk factors for ATD-induced hepatitis. A total of 245 Brazilian patients undergoing treatment for TB were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism and sequencing methods. The frequencies of the CYP2E1 polymorphic alleles RsaI, PstI and DraI are 8%, 8.5% and 12%, respectively. GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes are deleted in 42.9% and 12.4% of the population, respectively. Fifteen patients (6.1%) developed hepatotoxicity. Clinical (HIV, female sex and extrapulmonary TB) and genetic characteristics (CYP2E1 without any mutations, having NAT2 slow acetylator profile) are at higher risk of developing ATD-induced hepatitis in this population. Genotyping for GSTM1 and GSTT1 showed no influence on drug response.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics and its predecessor pharmacogenetics study the contribution of genetic factors to the interindividual variability in drug efficacy and safety. One of the major goals of pharmacogenomics is to tailor drugs to individuals based on their genetic makeup and molecular profile. From early findings in the 1950s uncovering inherited deficiencies in drug metabolism that explained drug-related adverse events, to nowadays genome-wide approaches assessing genetic variation in multiple genes, pharmacogenomics has come a long way. The evolution of pharmacogenomics has paralleled the evolution of genotyping technologies, the completion of the human genome sequencing and the HapMap project. Despite these advances, the implementation of pharmacogenomics in clinical practice has yet been limited. Here we present an overview of the history and current applications of pharmacogenomics in patient selection, dosing, and drug development with illustrative examples of these categories. Some of the challenges in the field and future perspectives are also presented.
