Plasma caffeine metabolite ratio (17X/137X) in vivo associated with G-2964A and C734A polymorphisms of human CYP1A2

Caffeine metabolites in umbilical cord blood, cytochrome P-450 1A2 activity, and intrauterine growth restriction

Studies investigating antenatal caffeine consumption and reproductive outcomes show conflicting results, and most studies have used maternal self-reported caffeine consumption to estimate fetal exposure. This study (n=1,606) was specifically designed to test the association of caffeine and its primary metabolites in umbilical cord blood with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Pregnant women were recruited from 56 obstetric practices and 15 clinics affiliated with six hospitals in Connecticut and Massachusetts between September 1996 and January 2000. In an adjusted model including caffeine only, levels in all quartiles were associated with reduced risk of IUGR. In adjusted analyses including paraxanthine and caffeine, serum paraxanthine levels in the highest quartile were associated with increased risk of IUGR (adjusted odds ratio=3.29, 95% confidence interval: 1.17, 9.22); caffeine remained protective. These conflicting findings suggest that cytochrome P-450 1A2 (CYP1A2) metabolic activity may be associated with IUGR, so the ratio of paraxanthine to caffeine was then modeled. The likelihood of IUGR increased 21% for every one standard deviation change in the ratio (adjusted odds ratio=1.21, 95% confidence interval: 1.07, 1.37), suggesting that CYP1A2 activity, and not the absolute levels of paraxanthine, influences fetal growth. No associations were observed between caffeine or any metabolites and preterm delivery.

Increased clozapine plasma concentrations and side effects induced by smoking cessation in 2 CYP1A2 genotyped patients

Clozapine, an atypical antipsychotic, depends mainly on cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) for its metabolic clearance. CYP1A2 is inducible by smoking, and lower plasma concentrations of clozapine are measured in smokers than in nonsmokers. Case reports have been published on the effects of discontinuing smoking in patients receiving clozapine, which might lead to elevated plasma concentrations and severe side effects. We present 2 cases on the consequences of smoking cessation in patients receiving this drug. In the first patient, smoking cessation resulted, within 2 weeks, in severe sedation and fatigue, with an approximately 3-fold increase of plasma clozapine concentrations. In the second patient, a very high plasma concentration of clozapine (3004 ng/mL) was measured 6 days following a 16-day stay in a general hospital, during which smoking was prohibited. In the latter patient, the replacement of omeprazole, a strong CYP1A2 inducer, by pantoprazole, a weaker CYP1A2 inducer, could have contributed, in addition to smoking cessation, to the observed strong increase of plasma clozapine concentrations. Genotyping of the 2 patients revealed that they were carriers of the AA genotype for the -164C>A polymorphism (CYP1A2*1F) in intron 1 of CYP1A2 gene, which has previously been shown to confer a high inducibility of CYP1A2 by smoking. Thus, at the initiation of clozapine treatment, smoking patients should be informed that, if they decide to stop smoking, they are encouraged to do so but must inform their prescriber beforehand. Also, because of the increased use of no-smoking policies in many hospitals, studies examining the consequences of such policies on the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2, taking into account different CYP1A2 genotypes, are needed.

Pregnancy-induced changes in pharmacokinetics: a mechanistic-based approach

Observational studies have documented that women take a variety of medications during pregnancy. It is well known that pregnancy can induce changes in the plasma concentrations of some drugs. The use of mechanistic-based approaches to drug interactions has significantly increased our ability to predict clinically significant drug interactions and improve clinical care. This same method can also be used to improve our understanding regarding the effect of pregnancy on pharmacokinetics of drugs. Limited studies suggest bioavailability of drugs is not altered during pregnancy. Increased plasma volume and protein binding changes can alter the apparent volume of distribution (Vd) of drugs. Through changes in Vd and clearance, pregnancy can cause increases or decreases in the terminal elimination half-life of drugs. Depending on whether a drug is excreted unchanged by the kidneys or which metabolic isoenzyme is involved in the metabolism of a drug can determine whether or not a change in dosage is needed during pregnancy. The renal excretion of unchanged drugs is increased during pregnancy. The metabolism of drugs catalysed by select cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes (i.e. CYP3A4, CYP2D6 and CYP2C9) and uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoenzymes (i.e. UGT1A4 and UGT2B7) are increased during pregnancy. Dosages of drugs predominantly metabolised by these isoenzymes or excreted by the kidneys unchanged may need to be increased during pregnancy in order to avoid loss of efficacy. In contrast, CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 activity is decreased during pregnancy, suggesting that dosage reductions may be needed to minimise potential toxicity of their substrates. There are limitations to the available data. This analysis is based primarily on observational studies, many including small numbers of women. For some isoenzymes, the effect of pregnancy on only one drug has been evaluated. The full-time course of pharmacokinetic changes during pregnancy is often not studied. The effect of pregnancy on transport proteins is unknown. Drugs eliminated by non-CYP or non-UGT pathways or multiple pathways will need to be evaluated individually. In conclusion, by evaluating the pharmacokinetic data of a variety of drugs during pregnancy and using a mechanistic-based approach, we can start to predict the effect of pregnancy for a large number of clinically used drugs. However, because of the limitations, more clinical, evidence-based studies are needed to fully elucidate the effects of pregnancy on the pharmacokinetics of drugs.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Pharmacogenetic Tests as Tools in Pharmacovigilance

Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and pharmacogenetic tests play a major role in minimising adverse drug reactions and enhancing optimal therapeutic response. The response to medication varies greatly between individuals, according to genetic constitution, age, sex, co-morbidities, environmental factors including diet and lifestyle (e.g. smoking and alcohol intake), and drug-related factors such as pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic drug-drug interactions. Most adverse drug reactions are type A reactions, i.e. plasma-level dependent, and represent one of the major causes of hospitalisation, in some cases leading to death. However, they may be avoidable to some extent if pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic factors are taken into consideration. This article provides a review of the literature and describes how to apply and interpret TDM and certain pharmacogenetic tests and is illustrated by case reports. An algorithm on the use of TDM and pharmacogenetic tests to help characterise adverse drug reactions is also presented. Although, in the scientific community, differences in drug response are increasingly recognised, there is an urgent need to translate this knowledge into clinical recommendations. Databases on drug-drug interactions and the impact of pharmacogenetic polymorphisms and adverse drug reaction information systems will be helpful to guide clinicians in individualised treatment choices.

Phenotype-genotype analysis of CYP1A2 in Japanese patients receiving oral theophylline therapy

OBJECTIVE

To clarify the association between the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 genotype with the CYP1A2 phenotype and to search for the CYP1A2*1K haplotype, which has been shown to decrease CYP1A2 inducibility and/or other functional polymorphisms in Japanese.

METHODS

Two polymorphisms, CYP1A2*1C and CYP1A2*1F, were genotyped in 126 patients receiving oral slow-release theophylline (TP) therapy and in 224 healthy volunteers. The CYP1A2 phenotype was assessed by the plasma [1-methyluric acid (1U)+3-methylxanthine (3X)]/TP ratio in the patients. The volunteers were given 150 mg caffeine, and the urine [1X+1U+5-acetylamino-6-amino-3-methyluracil (AAMU)]/17U ratio was used for CYP1A2 phenotyping. CYP1A2 intron 1 and six exons (exon 2-exon 7) were sequenced in the patients whose (1U+3X)/TP ratios were below the mean-2SD of those of all patients, and intron 1 was also sequenced in an additional 20 healthy volunteers exhibiting putative low CYP1A2 activities.

RESULTS

The individual (1U+3X)/TP ratios ranged from 0.007 to 0.21 (a 30-fold difference) in the patients, and the (1X+1U+AAMU)/17U ratios ranged from 1.6 to 112 (a 70-fold difference) in the healthy volunteers. The CYP1A2 activities were not significantly influenced by CYP1A2*1C or CYP1A2*1F. We found no functional polymorphisms by a sequencing analysis.

CONCLUSION

These results suggest that the CYP1A2*1C and CYP1A2*1F genotypes are not crucial factors for the variability of CYP1A2 activity and that the CYP1A2*1K haplotype is either nil or only shows a very low frequency in Japanese.

Rapid genotyping for relevant CYP1A2 alleles by pyrosequencing

OBJECTIVE

To develop a rapid and reliable screening method for identifying the relevant cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 alleles CYP1A2*1D (-2467Tdel), *1F (-163A>C), and *1K (-739T>G, -729C>T, -163A>C) that are in linkage disequilibrium with the functionally relevant CYP1A2 polymorphisms and therefore are considered to be predictive for the CYP1A2 phenotype.

METHODS

CYP1A2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -2467Tdel, -739T>G, -729C>T, and -163A>C were screened for in 495 healthy Caucasian volunteers using newly developed pyrosequencing duplex and simplex assays. Conventional sequencing of randomly selected samples served as quality control.

RESULTS

Frequencies were 7.9% for CYP1A2*1D, 31.8% for *1F, and 0.4% for *1K. The observed distribution of homozygous and heterozygous carriers of the alleles corresponded to the predicted one according to the Hardy-Weinberg law. It also corresponded to reported allelic frequencies from Caucasians but differed significantly from the distribution seen in other ethnicities. The most frequent haplotype was -2467T/-739T/-729C/-163A (allelic frequency 61.6%), followed by -2467T/-739T/-729C/-163C (30.5%), -2467Tdel/-739T/-729C/-163A (5.1%), -2467Tdel/-739G/-729C/-163A (1.2%), and -2467Tdel/-739T/-729C/-163C (1.1%). Complete linkage disequilibrium (value of D' nearly 1) existed between -2467Tdel, -739T>G, and -729C>T and between -729T>G and -163A>C.

CONCLUSIONS

Pyrosequencing facilitates rapid and reliable detection of those CYP1A2 alleles that, based on current knowledge, can be considered predictive for the CYP1A2 phenotype.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms and haplotypes of CYP1A2 in a Japanese population

In order to identify genetic polymorphisms and haplotype frequencies of CYP1A2 in a Japanese population, the enhancer and promoter regions, all the exons with their surrounding introns, and intron 1 were sequenced from genomic DNA from 250 Japanese subjects. Thirty-three polymorphisms were found, including 13 novel ones: 2 in the enhancer region, 5 in the exons, and 6 in the introns. The most common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was -163C>A (CYP1A2*1F allele) with a 0.628 frequency. In addition to six previously reported non-synonymous SNPs, three novel ones, 125C>G (P42R, CYP1A2*15 allele, MPJ6_1A2032), 1130G>A (R377Q, *16 allele, MPJ6_1A2033), and 1367G>A (R456H, *8 allele, MPJ6_1A2019), were found with frequencies of 0.002, 0.002, and 0.004, respectively. No polymorphism was found in the known nuclear transcriptional factor-binding sites in the enhancer region. Based on linkage disequilibrium analysis, the CYP1A2 gene was analyzed as one haplotype block. Using the 33 detected polymorphisms, 14 haplotypes were unambiguously identified, and 17 haplotypes were inferred by aid of an expectation-maximization-based program. Among them, the second major haplotype CYP1A2*1L is composed of -3860G>A (*1C allele), -2467delT (*1D allele), and -163C>A (*1F allele). Network analysis suggested that relatively rare haplotypes were derived from three major haplotypes, *1A, *1M, and *1N in most cases. Our findings provide fundamental and useful information for genotyping CYP1A2 in the Japanese, and probably Asian populations.

Risk of Testicular Germ Cell Cancer in Relation to Variation in Maternal and Offspring Cytochrome P450 Genes Involved in Catechol Estrogen Metabolism

The incidence of testicular germ cell carcinoma (TGCC) is highest among men ages 20 to 44 years. Exposure to relatively high circulating maternal estrogen levels during pregnancy has long been suspected as being a risk factor for TGCC. Catechol (hydroxylated) estrogens have carcinogenic potential, thought to arise from reactive catechol intermediates with enhanced capability of forming mutation-inducing DNA adducts. Polymorphisms in maternal or offspring genes encoding estrogen-metabolizing enzymes may influence prenatal catechol estrogen levels and could therefore be biomarkers of TGCC risk. We conducted a population-based, case-parent triad study to evaluate TGCC risk in relation to maternal and/or offspring polymorphisms in CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5. We identified 18- to 44-year-old men diagnosed with invasive TGCC from 1999 to 2004 through a population-based cancer registry in Washington State and recruited cases and their parents (110 case-parent triads, 50 case-parent dyads). Maternal or offspring carriage of CYP1A2 -163A was associated with reduced risk of TGCC [maternal heterozygote relative risk (RR), 0.6; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.2-1.7; offspring heterozygote RR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.3-1.5)]. Maternal CYP1B1 (48)Gly homozygosity was associated with a 2.7-fold increased risk of TGCC (95% CI, 0.9-7.9), with little evidence that Leu(432)Val or Asn(453)Ser genotypes were related to risk. Men were also at increased risk of TGCC if they carried the CYP3A4 -392G (RR, 7.0; 95% CI, 1.6-31) or CYP3A5 6986G (RR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.1-5.6) alleles. These results support the hypothesis that maternal and/or offspring catechol estrogen activity may influence sons' risk of TGCC.

Caffeine Metabolism, Genetics, and Perinatal Outcomes: A Review of Exposure Assessment Considerations during Pregnancy

PURPOSE

To review the methodologic issues complicating caffeine exposure assessment during pregnancy; to discuss maternal and fetal caffeine metabolism, including genetic polymorphisms affecting caffeine metabolism; and to discuss the endogenous and exogenous risk factors known to influence caffeine metabolism.

METHODS

A review of the relevant literature.

RESULTS

There is wide inter-individual variation in caffeine metabolism, primarily due to variations in CYP1A2 enzyme activity. Some variability in CYP1A2 activity is due to genetic polymorphisms in the CYP1A2 gene which can cause increased or decreased inducibility of the enzyme. Considerable evidence exists that maternal caffeine metabolism is influenced by a variety of endogenous and exogenous factors and studying the genetic polymorphisms may improve understanding of the potential effects of caffeine and its metabolites on perinatal outcomes. There is substantial evidence that measurement of maternal, fetal, and neonatal caffeine metabolites may allow for a more precise measure of fetal caffeine exposure.

CONCLUSIONS

Research on the genetic polymorphisms affecting caffeine metabolism may further explain the potential effects of caffeine and its metabolites on perinatal outcomes.

CYP1A2 phenotype and genotype in a population from the Carboniferous Region of Coahuila, Mexico

CYP1A2 regulation by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposure and polymorphism was investigated in 46 male volunteers from the Carboniferous Region in northern Coahuila, Mexico. PAH exposure was estimated by the urinary excretion of 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP), whereas the regulatory effects were assessed by the caffeine metabolic ratio (CMR). Genotype was evaluated by determining 5'-flanking region (-2964) and intron I (734) polymorphisms. A statistically significant difference in the urinary 1-OHP geometric means of Barroterán, Cloete and Juárez (2.30, 0.45 and 0.04, respectively) was observed. As for the genotype, the intron I distribution was 0% C/C, 46% C/A and 54% A/A, whereas that of the 5'-flanking region was 26% G/G, 42% G/A and 32% A/A. Both distributions were in agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium model. A greater enzyme activity was observed in the A/A compared to C/A individuals according to the CMR (P<0.001), whereas the 5'-flanking region polymorphism showed no effect on CYP1A2 enzymatic activity. These results suggest that intron I polymorphism and PAH exposure are relevant factors that modulate CYP1A2 enzymatic activity.

Warum rauchen Schizophreniepatienten?

Patients suffering from schizophrenia are known to show an increased prevalence of nicotine addiction. The aim of this paper is to elucidate the relationship between schizophrenia and (chronic) use of nicotine. Nicotine seems to improve cognitive functions critically affected in schizophrenia, in particular sustained attention, focused attention, working memory, short-term memory, and recognition memory. Furthermore, several studies using evoked potentials (P50 paradigm) and prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle reflex suggest that deficient preattentive information processing, a core feature of schizophrenia illness, is improved following treatment with nicotine. Smoking can also improve extrapyramidal secondary effects of antipsychotic medication and it induces cytochrome P4501A2, an enzyme system involved in the metabolism of several antipsychotics. There is substantial evidence that nicotine could be used by patients with schizophrenia as a "self-medication" to improve deficits in attention, cognition, and information processing and to reduce side effects of antipsychotic medication. Possible pharmacotherapeutic approaches for the regulation of abnormal neurotransmission at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are discussed.

Genetic Factors in Catechol Estrogen Metabolism in Relation to the Risk of Endometrial Cancer

2-Hydroxylated metabolites of estrogen have been shown to have antiangiogenic effects and inhibit tumor cell proliferation, whereas 4-hydroxylated metabolites have been implicated in carcinogenesis. We examined whether polymorphisms in certain genes involved in estrogen metabolism are associated with endometrial cancer risk in a population-based case-control study with 371 cases and 420 controls. Based on previously published genotype-phenotype correlation studies, we defined variant alleles thought to increase estrogen 2-hydroxylation as presumptively low-risk (CYP1A1 m1 T6235C and m2 Ile(462)Val) and those thought to increase estrogen 4-hydroxylation as high-risk (CYP1A1 m4 Thr(461)Asn, CYP1A2 A734C, and CYP1B1 Leu(432)Val). Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using unconditional logistic regression. Carrying at least one CYP1A1 m1 or m2 variant allele was associated with a decreased risk of endometrial cancer [ORs (95% CIs), 0.64 (0.44-0.93) and 0.54 (0.30-0.99), respectively]. No strong alteration in risk was observed among women with any of the putative high-risk alleles. When CYP1A1, CYP1A2, and CYP1B1 genotypes were combined and ranked by the number of putative low-risk genotypes carried, women with four or five low-risk genotypes had a reduced risk of endometrial cancer (OR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.15-0.56) compared with women with one or none. No appreciable alteration in risk was observed among women carrying two or three low-risk genotypes. Some of our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that increased estrogen 2-hydroxylation is associated with decreased endometrial cancer risk, but replication of these results is required before any firm conclusions can be reached.

Nonresponse to clozapine and ultrarapid CYP1A2 activity: clinical data and analysis of CYP1A2 gene

Clozapine (CLO), an atypical antipsychotic, depends mainly on cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) for its metabolic clearance. Four patients treated with CLO, who were smokers, were nonresponders and had low plasma levels while receiving usual doses. Their plasma levels to dose ratios of CLO (median; range, 0.34; 0.22 to 0.40 ng x day/mL x mg) were significantly lower than ratios calculated from another study with 29 patients (0.75; 0.22 to 2.83 ng x day/mL x mg; P < 0.01). These patients were confirmed as being CYP1A2 ultrarapid metabolizers by the caffeine phenotyping test (median systemic caffeine plasma clearance; range, 3.85; 3.33 to 4.17 mL/min/kg) when compared with previous studies (0.3 to 3.33 mL/min/kg). The sequencing of the entire CYP1A2 gene from genomic DNA of these patients suggests that the -164C > A mutation (CYP1A2*1F) in intron 1, which confers a high inducibility of CYP1A2 in smokers, is the most likely explanation for their ultrarapid CYP1A2 activity. A marked (2 patients) or a moderate (2 patients) improvement of the clinical state of the patients occurred after the increase of CLO blood levels above the therapeutic threshold by the increase of CLO doses to very high values (ie, up to 1400 mg/d) or by the introduction of fluvoxamine, a potent CYP1A2 inhibitor, at low dosage (50 to 100 mg/d). Due to the high frequency of smokers among patients with schizophrenia and to the high frequency of the -164C > A polymorphism, CYP1A2 genotyping could have important clinical implications for the treatment of patients with CLO.

Identification of a novel splice-site mutation in the CYP1A2 gene

AIMS

To identify the molecular basis for a low CYP1A2 metabolic status, as determined by a caffeine phenotyping test, in a 71-year-old, nonsmoking, Caucasian woman who presented with very high clozapine concentrations despite being administered a standard dose of the drug.

METHODS

The nucleotide sequence of the 7 exons, exon-intron boundaries and 5'-flanking region of the CYP1A2 gene was analysed by direct sequencing.

RESULTS

Only one heterozygous point mutation was identified in the donor splice site of intron 6 (3534G > A) of CYP1A2. This mutation could cause abnormal RNA splicing and therefore lead to a truncated nonfunctional enzyme. No other carrier of this mutation was identified in a population of 100 unrelated healthy Caucasians.

CONCLUSIONS

This is the first report of a splice-site mutation affecting the CYP1A2 gene. This polymorphism is a likely explanation for the low CYP1A2 activity associated with high clozapine concentrations in this patient.

The effect of the CYP1A2 *1F mutation on CYP1A2 inducibility in pregnant women

AIMS

To investigate the influence of the CYP1A2*1F mutation on CYP1A2 activity in smoking and nonsmoking pregnant women.

METHODS

Pregnant women (n = 904) who served as control subjects in a case-control study of early fetal loss were investigated. They were phenotyped for CYP1A2 using dietary caffeine and the urinary ratio AFMU + 1X + 1 U/1,7 U. An assay for CYP1A2*1F using 5'-nuclease assay (Taqman) was developed to genotype the population.

RESULTS

The frequencies of *1 A and *1F alleles among Swedish women were 0.29 and 0.71, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in CYP1A2 activity between the genotypes, although a trend towards enhanced activity was observed in *1F/*1F (log MRc 0.77) and *1F/*1 A (log MRc 0.82) genotypes compared with the *1 A/*1 A genotype (log MRc 0.71) (anovaP = 0.07). The mean difference between the *1 A homozygotes and the heterozygotes was 0.11 [95% confidence interval of the difference: (-0.21, -0.01)] and that between the *1 A and *1F homozygotes was 0.05 [95% confidence interval of the difference: (-0.13, 0.03)]. No significant effect (P = 0.22) of the *1F on CYP1A2 activity was observed in smokers, tested using an interaction term (smoking * genotype) in the anova model (*1F/*1F log MRc 0.79, *1F/*1 A log MRc 0.86, and *1 A/*1 A log MRc 0.73). In smokers, there was no difference in ratio between homozygotes for the *1 A and *1F alleles [mean difference -0.06; 95% confidence interval of the difference: -0.22, 0.11] or between *1 A/*1 A and *1 A/*1F genotypes [mean difference -0.13; 95% confidence interval of the difference: -0.29, 0.04].

CONCLUSIONS

The effect of the CYP1A2*1F mutation on CYP1A2 activity in smoking pregnant women could not be confirmed.

Inducibility of CYP1A2 by omeprazole in vivo related to the genetic polymorphism of CYP1A2

AIMS

To evaluate the effect of the CYP1A2*1C and CYP1A2*1F polymorphisms on the inducibility of CYP1A2 by omeprazole in healthy subjects.

METHODS

Mutations of CYP2C19 and CYP1A2 were identified by PCR-RFLP. Omeprazole, 120 mg day-1, was given to 12 extensive metabolizers (EM) with respect to CYP2C19 (six CYP1A2*1F/CYP1A2*1F and six CYP1A2*1C/CYP1A2*1F of CYP1A2) for 7 days. CYP1A2 activity was determined on three occasions, namely on day 1, day 9 and day 16 using the caffeine plasma index (the ratio of the concentrations of paraxanthine to caffeine), 6 h after oral administration of 200 mg caffeine.

RESULTS

There was a significant difference (P = 0.002) between the caffeine ratios for CYP1A2*1F/CYP1A2*1F and CYP1A2*1C/CYP1A2*1F genotypes on day 9, but not on day 1 or day 16 (P > 0.05). The changes in the ratios from day 9 to day 1 (48% +/- 20%vs 19% +/- 20%) and from day 9 to day 16 (50% +/- 31%vs 15% +/- 22%) were significantly different (P < 0.05) between the CYP1A2*1F/CYP1A2*1F and CYP1A2*1C/CYP1A2*1F genotypes.

CONCLUSION

The CYP1A2*1C and CYP1A2*1F genetic polymorphisms influenced the induction of CYP1A2 activity in vivo by omeprazole.
