J24335 exerts neuroprotective effects against 6-hydroxydopamine-induced lesions in PC12 cells and mice. Eur J Pharm Sci 2024; 194:106696. [PMID: 38199443 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2024.106696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Parkinson's disease is the second most prevalent age-related neurodegenerative disease and disrupts the lives of people aged >60 years. Meanwhile, single-target drugs becoming inapplicable as PD pathogenesis diversifies. Mitochondrial dysfunction and neurotoxicity have been shown to be relevant to the pathogenesis of PD. The novel synthetic compound J24335 (11-Hydroxy-1-(8-methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)quinolin-2-yl)undecan-1-one oxime), which has been researched similarly to J2326, has the potential to be a multi-targeted drug and alleviate these lesions. Therefore, we investigated the mechanism of action and potential neuroprotective function of J24335 against 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity in mice, and in PC12 cell models. The key target of action of J24335 was also screened. MTT assay, LDH assay, flow cytometry, RT-PCR, LC-MS, OCR and ECAR detection, and Western Blot analysis were performed to characterize the neuroprotective effects of J24335 on PC12 cells and its potential mechanism. Behavioral tests and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate behavioral changes and brain lesions in mice. Moreover, bioinformatics was employed to assess the drug-likeness of J24335 and screen its potential targets. J24335 attenuated the degradation of mitochondrial membrane potential and enhanced glucose metabolism and mitochondrial biosynthesis to ameliorate 6-OHDA-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Animal behavioral tests demonstrated that J24335 markedly improved motor function and loss of TH-positive neurons and dopaminergic nerve fibers, and contributed to an increase in the levels of dopamine and its metabolites in brain tissue. The activation of both the CREB/PGC-1α/NRF-1/TFAM and PKA/Akt/GSK-3β pathways was a major contributor to the neuroprotective effects of J24335. Furthermore, bioinformatics predictions revealed that J24335 is a low toxicity and highly BBB permeable compound targeting 8 key genes (SRC, EGFR, ERBB2, SYK, MAPK14, LYN, NTRK1 and PTPN1). Molecular docking suggested a strong and stable binding between J24335 and the 8 core targets. Taken together, our results indicated that J24335, as a multi-targeted neuroprotective agent with promising therapeutic potential for PD, could protect against 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity via two potential pathways in mice and PC12 cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*22, and POR*28 genetic polymorphisms on tacrolimus and cyclosporine dose requirements. METHODS One hundred thirty renal transplant patients placed on either tacrolimus or cyclosporine were recruited, where the effect of CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*22, and POR*28 genetic polymorphisms on their dose requirements were studied at days 14, 30, and 90 post-transplantations. RESULTS The POR*28 allele frequency in the studied population was 29.61%. The tacrolimus dose-adjusted trough concentration ratio (C0/D) was significantly lower in the fast metabolizers group ( CYP3A5*1/POR*28(CT/TT ) carriers) than in the poor metabolizers group ( CYP3A5*3/*3/CYP3A4*22 carriers) throughout the study (14, 30, and 90 days) ( P = 0.001, <0.001, and 0.003, respectively). Meanwhile, there was no significant effect of this gene combination on cyclosporine C0/D. CONCLUSION Combining the CYP3A5*3, POR*28 , and CYP3A4*22 genotypes can have a significant effect on early tacrolimus dose requirements determination and adjustments. However, it does not have such influence on cyclosporine dose requirements.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) protein is essential for steroidogenesis, and POR gene mutations are frequently associated with P450 Oxidoreductase Deficiency (PORD), a disorder of hormone production. To our knowledge, no previous attempt has been made to identify and analyze the deleterious/pathogenic non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in the human POR gene through an extensive computational approach. Computational algorithms and tools were employed to identify, characterize, and validate the pathogenic SNPs associated with certain diseases. To begin with, all the high-confidence SNPs were collected, and their structural and functional impacts on the protein structures were explored. The results of various in silico analyses affirm that the A287P and R457H variants of POR could destabilize the interactions between the amino acids and the hydrogen bond networks, resulting in functional deviations of POR. The literature study further confirms that the pathogenic mutations (A287P and R457H) are associated with the onset of PORD. Molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) and essential dynamics (ED) studies characterized the structural consequences of prioritized deleterious mutations, representing the structural destabilization that might disrupt POR biological function. The identified deleterious mutations at the cofactor's binding domains might interfere with the essential interactions between the protein and cofactors, thus inhibiting POR catalytic activity. The consolidated insights from the computational analyses can be used to predict potential deleterious mutants and understand the disease's pathological basis and the molecular mechanism of drug metabolism for the application of personalized medication. HIGHLIGHTSNADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) mutations are associated with a broad spectrum of human diseasesIdentified and analyzed the most deleterious nsSNPs of POR through the sequence and structure-based prediction toolsInvestigated the structural and functional impacts of the most significant mutations (A287P and R457H) associated with PORDMolecular dynamics and PCA-based FEL analysis were utilized to probe the mutation-induced structural alterations in PORCommunicated by Ramaswamy H.

[PMID: 37126018 PMCID: PMC10411392 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.ccr-22-2431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Paclitaxel is a widely used anticancer therapeutic. Peripheral neuropathy is the dose-limiting toxicity and negatively impacts quality of life. Rare germline gene markers were evaluated for predicting severe taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) in the patients of European ancestry. In addition, the impact of Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 metabolizer status on likelihood of severe TIPN was also assessed. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Whole-exome sequencing analyses were performed in 340 patients of European ancestry who received a standard dose and schedule of paclitaxel in the adjuvant, randomized phase III breast cancer trial, E5103. Patients who experienced grade 3-4 (n = 168) TIPN were compared to controls (n = 172) who did not experience TIPN. For the analyses, rare variants with a minor allele frequency ≤ 3% and predicted to be deleterious by protein prediction programs were retained. A gene-based, case-control analysis using SKAT was performed to identify genes that harbored an imbalance of deleterious variants associated with increased risk of severe TIPN. CYP star alleles for CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 were called. An additive logistic regression model was performed to test the association of CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 metabolizer status with severe TIPN. RESULTS Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) was significantly associated with severe TIPN (P value = 1.8 ×10-6). Six variants were predicted to be deleterious in POR. There were no associations between CYP2C8, CYP3A4, or CYP3A5 metabolizer status with severe TIPN. CONCLUSIONS Rare variants in POR predict an increased risk of severe TIPN in patients of European ancestry who receive paclitaxel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite its advantages over other antipsychotics, for treatment-resistant schizophrenia, clinical use of Clozapine (CLZ) is challenging by its narrow therapeutic index and potentially life-threatening dose-related adverse effects. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS As the potential role in CLZ metabolism is assigned to CYP1A2 enzyme and consequently Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) their genetic variations might help to determine CLZ levels in schizophrenia patients. For this purpose, 112 schizophrenia patients receiving CLZ were included in the current study. Plasma CLZ and N-desmethylclozapine (DCLZ) levels were analyzed by using HPLC and genetic variations were identified with the PCR-RFLP method. RESULTS The patients' CYP1A2 and POR genotypes seemed to not affect plasma CLZ and DCLZ levels whereas in the subgroup analysis, POR × 28 genotype significantly influenced simple and adjusted plasma CLZ and DLCZ levels concerning smoking habit and caffeine consumption. CONCLUSIONS The findings of the present study highlight the importance of both genetic and non-genetic factors (smoking and caffeine consumption) for the individualization of the CLZ treatment. In addition to that, it suggests that the added utility of not only the CLZ metabolizing enzymes but also POR, which is crucial for proper CYP activity, to guide CLZ dosing might be useful for clinical decision-making.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 220:115256.

Abstract
Metabolism generally transforms xenobiotics into more polar and hydrophilic products, facilitating their elimination from the body. Recently, a new metabolic pathway that transforms phenolic xenobiotics into more lipophilic and bioactive dimer products was discovered. To elucidate the role of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in mediating this cross-coupling metabolism, we used high-throughput screening to identify the metabolites generated from the coupling of 20 xenobiotics with four endogenous metabolites in liver microsomes. Endogenous vitamin E (VE) was the most reactive metabolite, as VE reacted with seven phenolic xenobiotics containing various structures (e.g., an imidazoline ring or a diphenol group) to generate novel lipophilic ethers such as bakuchiol-O-VE, phentolamine-O-VE, phenylethyl resorcinol-O-VE, 2-propanol-O-VE, and resveratrol-O-VE. Seven recombinant CYP enzymes were successfully expressed and purified in Escherichia coli. Integration of the results of recombinant human CYP incubation and molecular docking identified the central role of CYP3A4 in the cross-coupling metabolic pathway. Structural analysis revealed the π-π interactions, hydrogen bonds, and hydrophobic interactions between reactive xenobiotics and VE in the malleable active sites of CYP3A4. The consistency between the molecular docking results and the in vitro human cytochrome P450 evaluation shows that docking calculations can be used to screen molecules participating in cross-coupling metabolism. The results of this study provide supporting evidence for the overlooked toxicological effects induced by direct reactions between xenobiotics and endogenous metabolites during metabolic processes.

Abstract
The adrenal is a small, anatomically unimposing structure that escaped scientific notice until 1564 and whose existence was doubted by many until the 18th century. Adrenal functions were inferred from the adrenal insufficiency syndrome described by Addison and from the obesity and virilization that accompanied many adrenal malignancies, but early physiologists sometimes confused the roles of the cortex and medulla. Medullary epinephrine was the first hormone to be isolated (in 1901), and numerous cortical steroids were isolated between 1930 and 1949. The treatment of arthritis, Addison's disease, and congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) with cortisone in the 1950s revolutionized clinical endocrinology and steroid research. Cases of CAH had been reported in the 19th century, but a defect in 21-hydroxylation in CAH was not identified until 1957. Other forms of CAH, including deficiencies of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 11β-hydroxylase, and 17α-hydroxylase were defined hormonally in the 1960s. Cytochrome P450 enzymes were described in 1962-1964, and steroid 21-hydroxylation was the first biosynthetic activity associated with a P450. Understanding of the genetic and biochemical bases of these disorders advanced rapidly from 1984 to 2004. The cloning of genes for steroidogenic enzymes and related factors revealed many mutations causing known diseases and facilitated the discovery of new disorders. Genetics and cell biology have replaced steroid chemistry as the key disciplines for understanding and teaching steroidogenesis and its disorders.

Abstract
HepG2 cells are an inexpensive hepatocyte model that can be used for repeated experiments, but HepG2 cells do not express major cytochrome P450s (CYPs) and UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 1 member A1 (UGT1A1). In this study, we established CYP3A4–POR–UGT1A1–CYP1A2–CYP2C19–CYP2C9–CYP2D6 (CYPs–UGT1A1) knock-in (KI)-HepG2 cells using a PITCh system to evaluate whether they could be a new hepatocyte model for pharmaceutical studies. To evaluate whether CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells express and function with CYPs and UGT1A1, gene expression levels of CYPs and UGT1A1 were analyzed by using real-time PCR, and metabolites of CYPs or UGT1A1 substrates were quantified by HPLC. The expression levels of CYPs and UGT1A1 in the CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells were comparable to those in primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) cultured for 48 h. The CYPs and UGT1A1 activity levels in the CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells were much higher than those in the wild-type (WT)-HepG2 cells. These results suggest that the CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells expressed functional CYPs and UGT1A1. We also confirmed that the CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells were more sensitive to drug-induced liver toxicity than the WT-HepG2 cells. CYPs–UGT1A1 KI-HepG2 cells could be used to predict drug metabolism and drug-induced liver toxicity, and they promise to be a helpful new hepatocyte model for drug discovery research.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 superfamily are heme-thiolate enzymes able to carry out monooxygenase reactions. Several studies have demonstrated the feasibility of using a soluble bacterial reductase from Bacillus megaterium, BMR, as an artificial electron transfer partner fused to the human P450 domain in a single polypeptide chain in an approach known as ‘molecular Lego’. The 3A4-BMR chimera has been deeply characterized biochemically for its activity, coupling efficiency, and flexibility by many different biophysical techniques leading to the conclusion that an extension of five glycines in the loop that connects the two domains improves all the catalytic parameters due to improved flexibility of the system. In this work, we extend the characterization of 3A4-BMR chimeras using differential scanning calorimetry to evaluate stabilizing role of BMR. We apply the ‘molecular Lego’ approach also to CYP19A1 (aromatase) and the data show that the activity of the chimeras is very low (<0.003 min−1) for all the constructs tested with a different linker loop length: ARO-BMR, ARO-BMR-3GLY, and ARO-BMR-5GLY. Nevertheless, the fusion to BMR shows a remarkable effect on thermal stability studied by differential scanning calorimetry as indicated by the increase in Tonset by 10 °C and the presence of a cooperative unfolding process driven by the BMR protein domain. Previously characterized 3A4-BMR constructs show the same behavior of ARO-BMR constructs in terms of thermal stabilization but a higher activity as a function of the loop length. A comparison of the ARO-BMR system to 3A4-BMR indicates that the design of each P450-BMR chimera should be carefully evaluated not only in terms of electron transfer, but also for the biophysical constraints that cannot always be overcome by chimerization.

Abstract
There are conflicting results regarding the effect of the P450 oxidoreductase (POR) *28 genotype on the tacrolimus (TAC) pharmacokinetics (PKs) during the early post-transplantation period in adult renal transplant recipients. Thus, we characterized the impact of POR*28 on TAC PKs. We conducted a systematic review on the association between POR*28 and PKs of TAC in adult renal transplant recipients. Structured searches were conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase. TAC standardized trough concentration (ng/mL per mg/kg) data were extracted. Mean differences (MD) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to identify the differences between the POR*28 genotype and PKs of TAC. The subgroup analysis was conducted according to CYP3A5 expression status. Six studies (n = 1061) were included. TAC standardized trough concentrations were significantly lower in recipients with the POR*28 allele compared to recipients with POR*1/*1 (MD: 8.30 ng/mL per mg/kg; 95% CI: 1.93, 14.67; p = 0.01). In the subgroup analysis, TAC standardized trough concentrations were lower for subjects who were POR*28 carriers than those who were POR*1/*1 in CYP3A5 expressers (MD: 20.21 ng/mL per mg/kg; 95% CI: 16.85, 23.56; p < 0.00001). No significant difference between POR*28 carriers and POR*1/*1 was found in the CYP3A5 non-expressers. The results of our meta-analysis demonstrated a definite correlation between the POR*28 genotype and PKs of TAC. Patients carrying the POR*28 allele may require a higher dose of TAC to achieve target levels compared to those with POR*1/*1, especially in CYP3A5 expressers.

Abstract
Most steroidogenesis disorders are caused by mutations in genes encoding the steroidogenic enzymes, but work in the past 20 years has identified related disorders caused by mutations in the genes encoding the cofactors that transport electrons from NADPH to P450 enzymes. Most P450s are microsomal and require electron donation by P450 oxidoreductase (POR); by contrast, mitochondrial P450s require electron donation via ferredoxin reductase (FdxR) and ferredoxin (Fdx). POR deficiency is the most common and best-described of these new forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Severe POR deficiency is characterized by the Antley-Bixler skeletal malformation syndrome and genital ambiguity in both sexes, and hence is easily recognized, but mild forms may present only with infertility and subtle disorders of steroidogenesis. The common POR polymorphism A503V reduces catalysis by P450c17 (17-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase) and the principal drugmetabolizing P450 enzymes. The 17,20-lyase activity of P450c17 requires the allosteric action of cytochrome b5, which promotes interaction of P450c17 with POR, with consequent electron transfer. Rare b5 mutations are one of several causes of 17,20-lyase deficiency. In addition to their roles with steroidogenic mitochondrial P450s, Fdx and FdxR participate in the synthesis of iron-sulfur clusters used by many enzymes. Disruptions in the assembly of Fe-S clusters is associated with Friedreich ataxia and Parkinson disease. Recent work has identified mutations in FdxR in patients with neuropathic hearing loss and visual impairment, somewhat resembling the global neurologic disorders seen with mitochondrial diseases. Impaired steroidogenesis is to be expected in such individuals, but this has not yet been studied.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is the most important drug-metabolizing enzyme in humans and has been associated with harmful drug interactions. The activity of CYP3A4 is known to be modulated by several compounds and by the electron transfer partner, cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR). The underlying mechanism of these effects, however, is poorly understood. We have used hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to investigate the impact of binding of CPR and of three different substrates (7-benzyloxy-4-trifluoromethyl-coumarin, testosterone, and progesterone) on the conformational dynamics of CYP3A4. Here, we report that interaction of CYP3A4 with substrates or with the oxidized or reduced forms of CPR leads to a global rigidification of the CYP3A4 structure. This was evident from the suppression of deuterium exchange in several regions of CYP3A4, including regions known to be involved in protein-protein interactions (helix C) and substrate binding and specificity (helices B' and E, and loop K/β1). Furthermore, the bimodal isotopic distributions observed for some CYP3A4-derived peptides were drastically impacted upon binding to CPR and/or substrates, suggesting the existence of stable CYP3A4 conformational populations that are perturbed by ligand/CPR binding. The results have implications for understanding the mechanisms of ligand binding, allostery, and catalysis in CYP enzymes.

Abstract
Children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) often require multiple medications to achieve comfort and sedation. Although starting doses are available, these medications are typically titrated to the desired effect. Both oversedation and undersedation are associated with adverse events. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate cumulative medication burden necessary to achieve comfort in patients in the PICU and determine relevant predictors of medication needs. In order to account for all of the sedative medications, z-scores were used to assess the population average dose of each medication and compare each patient day to this population average. Sedation regimens for 130 patients in the PICU were evaluated. Mean overall infusion rates of fentanyl, morphine, and hydromorphone were 1.67 ± 0.81 µg/kg/hour, 0.12 ± 0.08 mg/kg/hour, and 17.84 ± 13.4 µg/kg/hour, respectively. The mean infusion rate of dexmedetomidine was 0.59 ± 0.28 µg/kg/hour, and midazolam was 0.14 ± 0.1 mg/kg/hour. Summation z-sores were used to rank the amount of sedation medication needed to achieve comfort for each individual patient for his/her PICU stay in relation to the entire sample. Patient age, weight, and length of mechanical ventilation were all significant predictors of sedation requirement. This study will provide data necessary to develop a model of cumulative medication burden needed to achieve appropriate sedation in this population. This descriptive model in appropriately ranking patients based on sedative needs is the first step in exploring potential genetic factors that may provide an insight into homing in on the appropriate sedation regimen.

Insight into the structural and functional analysis of the impact of missense mutation on cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase. J Mol Graph Model 2020; 100:107708.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is a steroidogenic and drug-metabolizing enzyme. It helps in the NADPH dependent transfer of electrons to cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes for their biological activity. In this study, we employed integrative computational approaches to decipher the impact of proline to leucine missense mutation at position 384 (P384L) in the connecting/hinge domain region which is essential for the catalytic activity of POR. Analysis of protein stability using DUET, MUpro, CUPSAT, I-Mutant2.0, iStable and SAAFEC servers predicted that mutation might alter the structural stability of POR. The significant conformational changes induced by the mutation to the POR structure were analyzed by long-range molecular dynamics simulation. The results revealed that missense mutation decreased the conformational stability of POR as compared to wild type (WT). The PCA based FEL analysis described the mutant-specific conformational alterations and dominant motions essential for the biological activity of POR. The LIGPLOT interaction analysis showed the different binding architecture of FMN, FAD, and NADPH as a result of mutation. The increased number of hydrogen bonds in the FEL conformation of WT proved the strong binding of cofactors in the binding pocket as compared to the mutant. The porcupine plot analysis associated with cross-correlation analysis depicted the high-intensity flexible motion exhibited by functionally important FAD and NADPH binding domain regions. The computational findings unravel the impact of mutation at the structural level, which could be helpful in understanding the molecular mechanism of drug metabolism.

Abstract
Artemisia annua tea is a popular dosage form used to treat and prevent malaria in some developing countries. However, repeated drinking leads to an obviously decreased efficacy, which may be related to the induction of metabolizing enzymes by artemisinin. In the present study, the ability of different components in A. annua to activate the pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor was evaluated by the dual luciferase reporter gene system. The changes in mRNA and protein expression of CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 were determined by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting. Results showed that in the pregnane X receptor-mediated CYP3A4 reporter gene system, chrysosplenetin and arteannuin B exhibited a weak induction effect on pregnane X receptor wt, while arteannuin A had a strong induction effect on pregnane X receptor wt and pregnane X receptor 370 and a weak induction effect on pregnane X receptor 163. In the pregnane X receptor-mediated CYP2B6 reporter gene system, arteannuin A had a moderate induction effect on pregnane X receptor wt and pregnane X receptor 379, and a weak induction effect on pregnane X receptor 403, while arteannuin B had a weak induction effect on pregnane X receptor wt and pregnane X receptor 379. Arteannuin A had a strong induction effect on constitutive androstane receptor 3 in constitutive androstane receptor-mediated CYP3A4/2B6 reporter gene systems, while arteannuin B showed a weak induction effect on constitutive androstane receptor 3 in the constitutive androstane receptor-mediated CYP2B6 reporter gene system. The mRNA and protein expressions of CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 were increased when the pregnane X receptor or constitutive androstane receptor was activated. Various components present in A. annua differentially affect the activities of pregnane X receptor isoforms and the constitutive androstane receptor, which indicates the possibility of a drug-drug interaction. This partly explains the decline in efficacy after repeated drinking of A. annua tea.

Abstract
CONTEXT Mutations in cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) cause a form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). We report a novel R550W mutation in POR identified in a 46,XX patient with signs of aromatase deficiency. OBJECTIVE Analysis of aromatase deficiency from the R550W mutation in POR. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENT Both the child and the mother had signs of virilization. Ultrasound revealed the presence of uterus and ovaries. No defects in CYP19A1 were found, but further analysis with a targeted Disorders of Sexual Development NGS panel (DSDSeq.V1, 111 genes) on a NextSeq (Illumina) platform in Madrid and Barcelona, Spain, revealed compound heterozygous mutations c.73_74delCT/p.L25FfsTer93 and c.1648C > T/p.R550W in POR. Wild-type and R550W POR were produced as recombinant proteins and tested with multiple cytochrome P450 enzymes at University Children's Hospital, Bern, Switzerland. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE AND RESULTS POR-R550W showed 41% of the WT activity in cytochrome c and 7.7% activity for reduction of MTT. Assays of CYP19A1 showed a severe loss of activity, and CYP17A1 as well as CYP21A2 activities were also lost by more than 95%. Loss of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 activities was observed for the R550W-POR. Predicted adverse effect on aromatase activity as well as a reduction in binding of NADPH was confirmed. CONCLUSIONS Pathological effects due to POR-R550W were identified, expanding the knowledge of molecular pathways associated with aromatase deficiency. Screening of the POR gene may provide a diagnosis in CAH without defects in genes for steroid metabolizing enzymes.

Influence of POR*28 Polymorphisms on CYP3A5*3-Associated Variations in Tacrolimus Blood Levels at an Early Stage after Liver Transplantation. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21072287. [PMID: 32225074 PMCID: PMC7178010 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21072287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2020] [Revised: 03/22/2020] [Accepted: 03/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
It is well known that the CYP3A5*3 polymorphism is an important marker that correlates with the tacrolimus dose requirement after organ transplantation. Recently, it has been revealed that the POR*28 polymorphism affects the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in renal transplant patients. In this study, we examined whether POR*28 as well as CYP3A5*3 polymorphism in Japanese recipients and donors would be another biomarker for the variation of tacrolimus blood levels in the recipients during the first month after living-donor liver transplantation. We enrolled 65 patients treated with tacrolimus, who underwent liver transplantation between July 2016 and January 2019. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole-blood samples, and genotyping was performed to examine the presence of CYP3A5*3 and POR*28 polymorphisms in the recipients and donors. The CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype (defective CYP3A5) of the recipient (standard partial regression coefficient [median C/D ratio of CYP3A5 expressor vs. CYP3A5 non-expressor, p value]: Pod 1–7, β= −0.389 [1.76 vs. 2.73, p < 0.001]; Pod 8–14, β = −0.345 [2.03 vs. 2.83, p < 0.001]; Pod 15–21, β= −0.417 [1.75 vs. 2.94, p < 0.001]; Pod 22–28, β = −0.627 [1.55 vs. 2.90, p < 0.001]) rather than donor (Pod 1–7, β = n/a [1.88 vs. 2.76]; Pod 8–14, β = n/a [1.99 vs. 2.93]; Pod 15–21, β = −0.175 [1.91 vs. 2.94, p = 0.004]; Pod 22–28, β = n/a [1.61 vs. 2.67]) significantly contributed to the increase in the concentration/dose (C/D) ratio of tacrolimus for at least one month after surgery. We found that the tacrolimus C/D ratio significantly decreased from the third week after transplantation when the recipient carried both CYP3A5*1 (functional CYP3A5) and POR*28 (n = 19 [29.2%], median C/D ratio [inter quartile range] = 1.58 [1.39–2.17]), compared with that in the recipients carrying CYP3A5*1 and POR*1/*1 (n = 8 [12.3%], median C/D ratio [inter quartile range] = 2.23 [2.05–3.06]) (p < 0.001). In conclusion, to our knowledge, this is the first report suggesting that the POR*28 polymorphism is another biomarker for the tacrolimus oral dosage after liver transplantation in patients carrying CYP3A5*1 rather than CYP3A5*3/*3.

[PMID: 32134573 PMCID: PMC7216797 DOI: 10.1002/mgg3.1201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2019] [Revised: 02/16/2020] [Accepted: 02/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of P450 oxidoreductase (POR) genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetic parameters of amlodipine. METHODS After a single 10-mg dose of amlodipine administration, 25 healthy male subjects completed genotyping for 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the POR genes, cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 g.25343G>A (CYP3A4*1G), and CYP3A5 g.12083G>A (CYP3A5*3). Stratified analysis and in silico analysis to predict the possible effects of given variants on splicing were performed. RESULTS The maximum blood concentration (Cmax ) of amlodipine in carriers of g.57332T>C and g.56551G>A SNPs of the POR gene was statistically significantly different. In addition, T-allele carriers of g.57332T>C had a 21% higher Cmax than those with the CC genotype (p = .007). Subjects who carried the wild-type g.56551G>A allele also had a 1.12-fold significantly higher Cmax than subjects with mutant-type homozygous carriers (p = .033). In stratified analyses, g.57332T>C was significantly associated with a 1.3-fold increase in Cmax value in T-allele carriers compared with subjects with the CC genotype in CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 expressers. POR g.57332T>C increased the score above the threshold in both ESEfinder 3.0 and HSF 3.1. CONCLUSION This study identified a novel SNP of the POR gene, which affected amlodipine metabolism and may reduce interindividual variation in responses to amlodipine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury (ATDILI) is a common and sometimes severe adverse drug reaction (ADR). This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of two genes, cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), and the risk of ATDILI in Western Chinese Han population. METHODS A total of 118 tuberculosis (TB) patients with ATDILI and 628 TB patients without ATDILI during anti-TB treatment were recruited from West China Hospital of Sichuan University. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood, and genotypes of the selected 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (3 SNPs in the POR gene and 9 SNPs in the PPARα gene) were determined. Three genetic models (additive, dominant, and recessive), as well as a haplotype, were used to test the genetic risk of ATDILI. Extended subgroup analysis was conducted according to age, sex and different causality assessments. RESULTS The mutant allele, genotype and genetic model of rs3898649 in the POR gene were found to be associated with increased risk of ATDILI, especially in the younger (<50 years old), female and pulmonary tuberculosis subgroup. The other two SNPs rs28737229 and rs4728533 in the POR gene showed only a potential association with susceptibility to ATDILI after Bonferroni correction (P < .05 but PBonferroni > .05). The other 9 SNPs loci (rs135549, rs9626730, rs4253712, rs4823613, rs4253730, rs6007662, rs4253728, rs2024929 and rs135561) in the PPARα gene showed no significant differences between ATDILI and non-ATDILI in either allele frequencies or genotype (all P >.05). CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrated the strong correlation between POR gene SNP rs3898649 and ATDILI susceptibility, suggesting the importance of POR rs3898649 in the pathogenesis and development of ATDILI. Therefore, our results indicated that POR rs3898649 might be a valuable biomarker potentially involved in ATDILI.

Abstract
Postnatal growth retardation (PGR) is common in piglets. Abnormal development in small intestine was casually implicated in impaired growth, but the exact mechanism is still implausible. The present study unveiled transcriptome profile of jejunal mucosa, the major site of nutrient absorption, in PGR and healthy piglets using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). The middle segments of jejunum and ileum, and jejunal mucosa were obtained from healthy and PGR piglets at 42 d of age. Total RNA samples extracted from jejunal mucosa of healthy and PGR piglets were submitted for RNA-seq. Lower villus height was observed in both jejunum and ileum from PGR piglets suggesting structural impairment in small intestine (P < 0.05). RNA-seq libraries were constructed and sequenced, and produced average 4.8 × 107 clean reads. Analysis revealed a total of 499 differently expressed genes (DEGs), of which 320 DEGs were downregulated in PGR piglets as compared to healthy piglets. The functional annotation based on Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) highlighted that most DEGs were involved in nutrient metabolism and immune responses. Our results further indicated decreased gene expression associated with glucose, lipid, protein, mineral, and vitamin metabolic process, detoxication ability, oxidoreductase activity, and mucosal barrier function; as well as the increased insulin resistance and inflammatory response in the jejunal mucosa of PGR piglets. These results characterized the transcriptomic profile of the jejunal mucosa in PGR piglets, and could provide valuable information with respect to better understanding the nutrition metabolism and immune responses in the small intestine of piglets.

Variability in Loss of Multiple Enzyme Activities Due to the Human Genetic Variation P284T Located in the Flexible Hinge Region of NADPH Cytochrome P450 Oxidoreductase. Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:1187.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 located in the endoplasmic reticulum require NADPH cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) for their catalytic activities. Mutations in POR cause multiple disorders in humans related to the biosynthesis of steroid hormones and also affect drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 activities. Electron transfer in POR occurs from NADH to FAD to FMN, and the flexible hinge region in POR is essential for domain movements to bring the FAD and FMN close together for electron transfer. We tested the effect of variations in the hinge region of POR to check if the effects would be similar across all redox partners or there will be differences in activities. Here we are reporting the effects of a POR genetic variant P284T located in the hinge region of POR that is necessary for the domain movements and internal electron transfer between co-factors. Human wild-type and P284T mutant of POR and cytochrome P450 proteins were expressed in bacteria, purified, and reconstituted for enzyme assays. We found that for the P284T variant of POR, the cytochrome c reduction activity was reduced to 47% of the WT and MTT reduction was reduced to only 15% of the WT. No impact on ferricyanide reduction activity was observed, indicating intact direct electron transfer from FAD to ferricyanide, but a severe loss of CYP19A1 (aromatase) activity was observed (9% of WT). In the assays of drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 enzymes, the P284T variant of POR showed 26% activity for CYP2C9, 44% activity for CYP2C19, 23% activity for CYP3A4, and 44% activity in CYP3A5 assays compared to the WT POR. These results indicate a severe effect on several cytochrome P450 activities due to the P284T variation in POR, which suggests a negative impact on both the steroid as well as drug metabolism in the individuals carrying this variation. The negative impact of P284T mutation in the hinge region of POR seems to be due to disruption of FAD to FMN electron transfer. These results further emphasize the importance of hinge region in POR for protein flexibility and electron transfer within POR as well as the interaction of POR with different redox partners.

[PMID: 31489753 DOI: 10.1111/gbb.12609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2019] [Revised: 08/30/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Genetic factors are theorized to contribute to the substantial inter-individual variability in opioid abuse/addiction. To advance the behavioral genetics of prescription opioid abuse, our prior work identified the 129S1/SvlmJ (S1) and related 129P3/J (P3) mouse substrains, respectively, as low and high opioid-taking. Herein, we related our prior results to measures of sucrose reward/reinforcement, basal anxiety, opioid-induced place-conditioning, locomotor activity and Straub tail reaction, as well as behavioral and physiological signs of withdrawal. Substrains were also re-examined for higher-dose oxycodone and fentanyl intake under limited-access drinking procedures. S1 mice failed to acquire sucrose self-administration under various operant-conditioning procedures and exhibited lower sucrose intake in the home-cage. However, sucrose intake under limited-access procedures escalated in both substrains with repeated sucrose experience. S1 mice exhibited less spontaneous locomotor activity, as well as less opioid-induced locomotor activity and Straub tail reaction, than P3 mice and failed to exhibit an oxycodone-induced place-preference. The lack of conditioned behavior by S1 mice was unrelated to behavioral signs of withdrawal-induced negative affect or dependence severity, but might reflect high levels of basal anxiety-like behavior. Intriguingly, S1 and P3 mice initially exhibited equivalent oxycodone and fentanyl consumption in the home-cage; however opioid intake escalated only in P3 mice with repeated opioid experience. No sex differences were observed for any of our measures. These data provide additional evidence for robust differences in opioid addiction-related behaviors between P3 and S1 substrains and suggest that anxiety, learning, and/or motivational impairments might confound interpretation of operant- and place-conditioning studies employing the S1 substrain.

Abstract
NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) is the natural redox partner of microsomal cytochrome P450 enzymes. CPR shows a stringent preference for NADPH over the less expensive cofactor, NADH, economically limiting its use as a biocatalyst. The complexity of cofactor-linked CPR protein dynamics and the incomplete understanding of the interaction of CPR with both cofactors and electron acceptors present challenges for the successful rational engineering of a CPR with enhanced activity with NADH. Here, we report a rational evolution approach to enhance the activity of CPR with NADH, in which mutations were introduced into the NADPH-binding flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) domain. Multiple CPR mutants that used NADH more effectively than the wild-type CPR in the reduction of the surrogate electron acceptor, cytochrome c were found. However, most were inactive in supporting P450 activity, arguing against the use of cytochrome c as a surrogate electron acceptor. Unexpectedly, several mutants showed significantly improved activity towards CYP2C9 (mutant 1-014) and/or CYP2A6 (mutants 1-014, 1-015, 1-053 and 1-077) using NADPH, even though the mutations were introduced at locations remote from the putative CPR-P450 interaction face. Therefore, mutations at sites in the FAD domain of CPR may be promising future engineering targets to enhance P450-mediated substrate turnover. ENZYMES: NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase - EC 1.6.2.4; cytochrome P450 - EC 1.14.14.1.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacogenetic Factors Contributing to Platelet Function Recovery After Single Dose of Ticagrelor in Healthy Subjects. Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:209. [PMID: 30936830 PMCID: PMC6431676 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2019.00209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2018] [Accepted: 02/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the contribution of candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to pharmacokinetics on the recovery of platelet function after single dose of ticagrelor was orally administered to healthy Chinese subjects. Methods: The pharmacokinetic profiles of ticagrelor and its metabolite AR-C124910XX (M8), and the platelet aggregation (PA), were assessed after 180 mg of single-dose ticagrelor was orally administered to 51 healthy Chinese subjects. Effects of CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP3A5*3, UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, UGT2B7*2, UGT2B7*3, SLCO1B1 388A>G, and SLCO1B1 521T>C, on the pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor and M8, and platelet function recovery were investigated. Results: The time to recover 50% of the maximum drug effect (RT50) ranging from 36 to 126 h with 46.9% CV had a remarkable individual difference and was positively associated with the half-life (t1/2) of M8 (r = 0.3901, P = 0.0067). The time of peak concentration (Tmax) of ticagrelor for CYP2C19*3 GG homozygotes was significantly higher than that of GA heterozygotes (P = 0.0027, FDR = 0.0243). Decreased peak concentration (Cmax) of M8 was significantly associated with SLCO1B1 388A>G A allele (P = 0.0152, FDR = 0.1368). CYP2C19*2 A was significantly related to decreased Cmax of M8 (P = 0.0455, FDR = 0.2048). While, the influence of these nine SNPs on the recovery of platelet function was not significant. Conclusion: Our study suggests that the elimination of M8 is an important factor in determining the recovery of platelet function. Although CYP2C19 and SLCO1B1 genetic variants were related to the pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor or M8, they did not show a significant effect on the platelet function recovery in this study.

Abstract
Our current study investigates the prognostic values of genetic variants and mRNA expression of cytochrome p450 oxidoreductase (POR) in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A total of 19 candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in the exons of POR were genotyped using Sanger sequencing from 476 HBV-related HCC patients who underwent hepatectomy between 2003 and 2013. The mRNA expression of POR in 212 patients with HBV-related HCC was obtained from GSE14520 dataset. Survival analysis was performed to investigate the association of POR variants and mRNA expression with overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Nomograms were used to predict the prognosis of HBV-related HCC patients. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to investigate the mechanism of POR in HBV-related HCC prognosis. The polymorphism POR-rs1057868 was significantly associated with HBV-related HCC OS (CT/TT vs. CC, hazard ratio [HR] = 0.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.54, 0.88], P = 0.003), but not significantly associated with RFS (CT/TT vs. CC, P = 0.378). POR mRNA expression was also significantly associated with HBV-related HCC OS (high vs. low, HR = 0.61, 95% CI = [0.38, 0.97], P = 0.036), but not significantly associated with the RFS (high vs. low, P = 0.201). Two nomograms were developed to predict the HBV-related HCC OS. Furthermore, GSEA suggests that multiple gene sets were significantly enriched in liver cancer survival and recurrence, as well as POR-related target therapy in the liver. In conclusion, our study suggests that POR-rs1057868 and mRNA expression may serve as a potential postoperative prognosis biomarker in HBV-related HCC.

Pharmacogenetics of artemether-lumefantrine influence on nevirapine disposition: Clinically significant drug-drug interaction? Br J Clin Pharmacol 2019; 85:540-550. [PMID: 30471138 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.13821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2018] [Revised: 10/29/2018] [Accepted: 11/08/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS In this study the influence of first-line antimalarial drug artemether-lumefantrine on the pharmacokinetics of the antiretroviral drug nevirapine was investigated in the context of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a cohort of adult HIV-infected Nigerian patients. METHODS This was a two-period, single sequence crossover study. In stage 1, 150 HIV-infected patients receiving nevirapine-based antiretroviral regimens were enrolled and genotyped for seven SNPs. Sparse pharmacokinetic sampling was conducted to identify SNPs independently associated with nevirapine plasma concentration. Patients were categorized as poor, intermediate and extensive metabolizers based on the numbers of alleles of significantly associated SNPs. Intensive sampling was conducted in selected patients from each group. In stage 2, patients received standard artemether-lumefantrine treatment with nevirapine, and intensive pharmacokinetic sampling was conducted on day 3. RESULTS No clinically significant changes were observed in key nevirapine pharmacokinetic parameters, the 90% confidence interval for the measured changes falling completely within the 0.80-1.25 no-effect boundaries. However, the number of patients with trough plasma nevirapine concentration below the 3400 ng ml-1 minimum effective concentration increased from 10% without artemether-lumefantrine (all extensive metabolizers) to 21% with artemether-lumefantrine (14% extensive, 4% intermediate, and 3% poor metabolizers). CONCLUSIONS This approach highlights additional increase in the already existing risk of suboptimal trough plasma concentration, especially in extensive metabolizers when nevirapine is co-administered with artemether-lumefantrine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain is one of the major adverse clinical outcomes of cesarean section (CS). In the past few years, researchers and physicians have been optimizing post-operative analgesic modalities, but the results are still undesirable for the parturient. The cytochrome P-450 3A4 (CYP3A4) gene has been reported to contribute significantly to human liver microsomal oxidation of sufentanil and alfentanil. METHODS We detected the frequency of CYP3A4 mutant allele, which is associated with the metabolism of diverse drugs, including opioids used for anesthesia. We then investigated the correlation between sufentanil (an opioid analgesic) consumption and CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism. RESULTS We found the frequency of the CYP3A4∗1G (the mutant form of CYP3A) variant allele to be 0.279 in 71 parturients undergoing cesarean section and 137 age-matched parturients with vaginal delivery. Interestingly, the parturients with homozygous CYP3A4∗1G showed less sufentanil consumption compared with those having the wild-type genotype. CONCLUSION In summary, we found a correlation between CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism and sufentanil consumption. This might be helpful for optimizing the anesthesia strategies and reducing their side effects.

Abstract
Diverse distributions of pharmacogenetically relevant variants of highly polymorphic CYP2C9, CYP2D6 and CYPOR genes are responsible for some varied drug responses observed across human populations. There is limited data available regarding the pharmacogenetic polymorphisms and frequency distributions of major allele variants in the Pakistani population. The present in silico mutagenesis study conducted on genotype pharmacogenetic variants and comparative analysis with a global population aims to extend the currently limited pharmacogenetic available evidence for the indigenous Pakistani population. Extracted genomic DNA from 244 healthy individuals' venous blood samples were amplified for distinct variant loci in the CYP2C9, CYP2D6 and CYPOR genes. Two-way sequencing results were compared with standard PubMed data and sequence variant loci confirmed by Chromas. This study revealed significant variations in CYP2C9 (rs1799853, rs1057910 and rs72558189), CYP2D6 (rs16947 and rs1135840), and CYPOR (rs1057868, rs781919285 and rs562750402) variants in intraethnic and interethnic frequency distributions. In silico mutagenesis and three-dimensional protein structural alignment analysis approaches clearly exposed the possible varied impact of rare CYPOR (rs781919285 and rs562750402) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and confirmed that the influences of CYP2C9 and CYP2D6 variants are consistent with what was found in earlier studies. This investigation highlighted the need to study pharmacogenetic relevance loci and documentation since evidence could be utilized to elucidate genetic backgrounds of drug metabolism, and provide a basis for future pharmacogenomic studies and adequate dose adjustments in Pakistani and global populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tacrolimus, a critical dose drug, is widely used in transplantation. Knowing the contribution of genetic factors, which significantly influence tacrolimus variability, is beneficial in the personalization of its starting dose. The significant impact of CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms on tacrolimus exposure has been reported. Conflicting results of the additional influence of POR*28 polymorphisms on tacrolimus pharmacokinetic interindividual variability have been observed among different populations. The objective of this study was to explore the interaction between POR*28 and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms and their main effects on tacrolimus trough concentration to dose ratios on day 7 after kidney transplantation. METHODS Two hundred sixteen adult kidney transplant recipients participated in this retrospective study. All participants received a twice daily tacrolimus regimen. Blood samples and data were collected on day 7 after transplantation. A 2-way analysis of covariance was performed. Tested covariates were age, hemoglobin, serum albumin, and prednisolone dose. RESULTS A 2 × 2 analysis of covariance revealed that the interaction between CYP3A5 polymorphisms (CYP3A5 expresser and CYP3A5 nonexpresser) and POR polymorphisms (POR*28 carrier and POR*28 noncarrier) was not significant (F(1, 209) = 2.473, P = 0.117, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.012). The predicted main effect of CYP3A5 and POR polymorphisms was significant (F(1, 209) = 105.565, P < 0.001, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.336 and F(1, 209) = 4.007, P = 0.047, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.019, respectively). Hemoglobin, age, and steroid dose influenced log C0/dose of tacrolimus (F(1, 209) = 20.612, P < 0.001, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.090; F(1, 209) = 14.360, P < 0.001, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.064; and F(1, 209) = 5.512, P = 0.020, (Equation is included in full-text article.)= 0.026, respectively). CONCLUSIONS After adjusting for the influences of hemoglobin, age, and prednisolone dose, significant impacts of the CYP3A5 and POR polymorphisms on tacrolimus exposure were found. The effect of POR*28 and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms during the very early period after kidney transplantation is independent of each other.

Abstract
Time-dependent inactivation (TDI) of cytochrome P450s (CYPs) is a leading cause of clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Current methods tend to overpredict DDIs. In this study, a numerical approach was used to model complex CYP3A TDI in human-liver microsomes. The inhibitors evaluated included troleandomycin (TAO), erythromycin (ERY), verapamil (VER), and diltiazem (DTZ) along with the primary metabolites N-demethyl erythromycin (NDE), norverapamil (NV), and N-desmethyl diltiazem (NDD). The complexities incorporated into the models included multiple-binding kinetics, quasi-irreversible inactivation, sequential metabolism, inhibitor depletion, and membrane partitioning. The resulting inactivation parameters were incorporated into static in vitro-in vivo correlation (IVIVC) models to predict clinical DDIs. For 77 clinically observed DDIs, with a hepatic-CYP3A-synthesis-rate constant of 0.000 146 min-1, the average fold difference between the observed and predicted DDIs was 3.17 for the standard replot method and 1.45 for the numerical method. Similar results were obtained using a synthesis-rate constant of 0.000 32 min-1. These results suggest that numerical methods can successfully model complex in vitro TDI kinetics and that the resulting DDI predictions are more accurate than those obtained with the standard replot approach.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes are required for the synthesis of cholesterol and steroid hormones. Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) donates electrons to microsomal cytochrome P450 enzymes. POR deficiency (PORD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease. In patients with PORD, steroid hormone synthesis is disrupted, which can cause infertility. The objective of this study was to report on a case of in vitro fertilization-frozen embryo transfer (IVF-FET) in a patient with PORD. The patient's hormone (i.e. 17α-hydroxyprogesterone) and electrolyte levels were within normal ranges ordinarily. Upon controlled ovarian stimulation, follicle growth was normal, but serum estrogen and progesterone levels were low and high, respectively. The serum progesterone level was elevated after long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment, and an endometrial biopsy showed a change in the proliferative phase. Genetic tests detected homozygous mutations (c.976 T > G, p.Y326D) in exon 10 of the POR gene. The frozen embryo was transferred during the administration of hormone replacement therapy. No significant morphological or metabolic abnormalities were observed in the neonate. Our findings suggest that infertile women with normal hormone levels may have metabolic diseases such as PORD. Further studies are needed to determine the cause of these diseases and to assist pregnancy in such women.

Abstract
Tacrolimus is prescribed to the majority of transplant recipients to prevent graft rejection, and although patients are maintained on oral administration, nonoral routes of administration are frequently used in the initial post-transplant period. CYP3A5 genotype is an established predictor of oral tacrolimus dose requirements, and clinical guideline recommendations exist for CYP3A5-guided dose selection. However, the association between CYP3A5 and nonoral tacrolimus administration is currently poorly understood, and differs from the oral tacrolimus relationship. In addition to CYP3A5, other pharmacogenes associated with CYP3A activity, including CYP3A4, CYP3A7 and POR have also been identified as predictors of tacrolimus exposure. This review will describe the current understanding of the relationship between these pharmacogenes and tacrolimus pharmacokinetics after oral and nonoral administration.

Abstract
The aim of this analysis was to explore the influence of CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of tylerdipine in healthy Chinese subjects. A total of 64 and 63 healthy Chinese subjects were included and identified as the genotypes of CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3, respectively. Plasma samples were collected for up to 120 h post-dose to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile following single oral dose of the drug (5, 15, 20, 25 and 30 mg). Plasma levels were measured by a high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using non-compartmental method. The maximum concentration (Cmax) and the area under the curve (AUC0-24 h) were all corrected by the dose given. In the wild-type group, the mean dose-corrected AUC0-24 h was 1.35-fold larger than in CYP3A4*1G carriers (p = .018). Among the three CYP3A5 genotypes, there showed significantly difference (p = .008) in the t1/2, but no significant difference was observed for the AUC0-24 h and Cmax. In subjects with the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype, the mean t1/2 was 1.35-fold higher than in CYP3A5*1/*1 group (p = .007). And the t1/2 in CYP3A5*3 carriers also was 1.32-fold higher than in the wild-type group (p = .004). CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms may influence tylerdipine pharmacokinetic in healthy Chinese subjects.

Abstract
Until the mid-1980s studies of steroidogenesis largely depended on identifying steroid structures and measuring steroid concentrations in body fluids. The molecular biology revolution radically revolutionized studies of steroidogenesis with the cloning of known steroidogenic enzymes, by identifying novel factors, and delineating the genetic basis of known and newly discovered diseases. Unfortunately, this dramatic success has led many young research-oriented endocrinologists to regard steroidogenesis as a 'solved area'. However, many important and exciting questions remain, especially concerning the mechanisms of cholesterol delivery to the steroidogenic machinery, the biochemistry of androgen synthesis, the regulation and biological role of adrenarche, fetal adrenal development and involution, the roles of steroids made in 'extraglandular' cells, and the search for genetic disorders. This review outlines some of these questions, but this list is necessarily incomplete.

Abstract
All cytochromes P450s in the endoplasmic reticulum rely on P450 oxidoreductase (POR) for their catalytic activities. Mutations in POR cause metabolic disorders of steroid hormone biosynthesis and affect certain drug metabolizing P450 activities. We studied mutations A115V, T142A, Q153R identified in the flavin mononucleotide (FMN) binding domain of POR that interacts with partner proteins and P284L located in the hinge region that is required for flexibility and domain movements in POR. Human wild-type (WT) and mutant POR as well as CYP3A4 and CYP19A1 proteins in recombinant form were expressed in bacteria, and purified proteins were reconstituted in liposomes for enzyme kinetic assays. Quality of POR protein was checked by cytochrome c reduction assay as well as flavin content measurements. We found that proteins carrying mutations A115V, T142A located close to the FMN binding site had reduced flavin content compared to WT POR and lost almost all activity to metabolize androstenedione via CYP19A1 and showed reduced CYP3A4 activity. The variant P284L identified from apparently normal subjects also had severe loss of both CYP19A1 and CYP3A4 activities, indicating this to be a potentially disease causing mutation. The mutation Q153R initially identified in a patient with disordered steroidogenesis showed remarkably increased activities of both CYP19A1 and CYP3A4 without any significant change in flavin content, indicating improved protein–protein interactions between POR Q153R and some P450 proteins. These results indicate that effects of mutations on activities of individual cytochromes P450 can be variable and a detailed analysis of each variant with different partner proteins is necessary to accurately determine the genotype-phenotype correlations of POR variants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Methadone is a μ-opioid agonist widely used for the treatment of pain, and for detoxification or maintenance treatment in opioid addiction. It has been shown to exhibit large pharmacokinetic variability and concentration-QTc relationships. In this study we investigated the relative influence of genetic polymorphism and other variables on the dose concentration-QTc relationship. PATIENTS AND METHODS A population model for methadone enantiomers in 251 opioid-dependent patients was developed using non-linear mixed effect modeling (NONMEM®). Various models were tested to characterize the pharmacokinetics of (R)- and (S)-methadone and the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationship, while including demographics, physiological conditions, co-medications, and genetic variants as covariates. Model-based simulations were performed to assess the relative increase in QTc with dose upon stratification according to genetic polymorphisms involved in methadone disposition. RESULTS A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and lag time provided the best model fit for (R)- and (S)-methadone pharmacokinetics. (S)-methadone clearance was influenced by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B6 activity, ABCB1 3435C>T, and α-1 acid glycoprotein level, while (R)-methadone clearance was influenced by CYP2B6 activity, POR*28, and CYP3A4*22. A linear model described the methadone concentration-QTc relationship, with a mean QTc increase of 9.9 ms and 19.2 ms per 1000 ng/ml of (R)- and (S)-methadone, respectively. Simulations with different methadone doses up to 240 mg/day showed that <8 % of patients presented with a QTc interval above 450 ms; however, this might reach 12 to 18 % for (R)- and (S)-methadone, respectively, in patients with a genetic status associated with a decreased methadone elimination at doses exceeding 240 mg/day. CONCLUSION Risk factor assessment, electrocardiogram monitoring, and therapeutic drug monitoring are beneficial to optimize treatment in methadone patients, especially for those who have low levels despite high methadone doses, or who are at risk of overdosing.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the influence of two variants of P450 oxidoreductase (POR), rs2868177 and POR*28, on the stable dosage of acenocoumarol. PATIENTS & METHODS For this observational, cross-sectional study, patients were undergone stable anticoagulant treatment with acenocoumarol. Univariate and multiple regression analyses were performed to assess the influence of POR polymorphisms. RESULTS About 340 patients were enrolled. Multiple regression had a coefficient of determination (R2) of 51.5% and an Akaike information criterion of 234.22. The inclusion of POR*28 polymorphisms increased the R2 to 52.0% and reduced the Akaike information criteria to 230.58. The POR*28 heterozygote showed statistical significance in the algorithm. CONCLUSION The POR*28 heterozygote appears to be associated with the stable dose of acenocoumarol, but its clinical contribution to the prediction of the dosing of this drug is minimal.

Front Pharmacol 2017; 8:176.

Abstract
Ticagrelor is the first reversible, direct-acting, potent P2Y12 receptor antagonist in management of acute coronary syndromes. It is rapidly absorbed and extensively metabolized. AR-C124910XX, the major active metabolite, antagonizes the P2Y12 receptor at approximately equal potency. The metabolism of ticagrelor to AR-C124910XX involves CYP3A4 and CYP3A5. CYP3A polymorphisms have been well documented, and CYP3A4∗1G (g.20230G>A, rs2242480) and CYP3A5∗3 (g.6986A>G, rs776746) are the most important single nucleotide polymorphisms in Chinese. Genetic differences in CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 expression in human volunteers and patients might affect the clearance of ticagrelor or AR-C124910XX in vivo resulting in subsequent variable patient response. Thus, this study is designed to explore the effects of CYP3A4∗1G and CYP3A5∗3 polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmcodynamics of ticagrelor in healthy Chinese subjects. The results indicated that the CYP3A4∗1G polymorphism significantly influenced the pharmacokinetics of AR-C124910XX, and it may be more important than CYP3A5∗3 with respect to influencing ticagrelor pharmacokinetics by increasing CYP3A4 activity. However, the significant effect of CYP3A4∗1G polymorphism on AR-C124910XX plasma levels did not translate into detectable effect on inhibition of platelet aggregation. Therefore, it seems not necessary to adjust the dosage of ticagrelor according to the CYP3A4 or 3A5 genotype.

Abstract
CYP3A4, an isoform of cytochrome P450 enzymes, is responsible for the metabolism of 45% to 60% of currently prescribed drugs. It has been shown that CYP3A4*1G, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), affects the enzymatic activity of CYP3A4. Sufentanil, a synthetic opioid commonly used for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia, analgesia, and sedation, is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4. So far, the impact of CYP3A4*1G on sufentanil metabolism has not been investigated. In the present study, we first determined the frequency of CYP3A4*1G polymorphism in patients of Chinese Han nationality who underwent lung resection, and then compared the amount of sufentanil used in general anesthesia during the surgical procedure between wild type and mutant patients.DNA sequencing was performed to genotype the CYP3A4*1G allele in 191 patients. The sufentanil dosages consumed in general anesthesia were recorded and compared between wild-type and mutant patients.The frequency of the CYP3A4*1G variant allele was 0.202 (77/382). No significant difference was observed in age, body weight, or operation time between wild-type and mutant patients. The amount of sufentanil consumed by patients with the point mutation was significantly lower than that in the wild type group. No significant difference in sufentanil dosages was observed between females and males within wild type or within mutant group.High frequency of CYP3A4*1G variants was detected in patients of Chinese Han nationality. Significantly lower amount of sufentanil was consumed in mutant patients compared with wild type subjects, likely a result of impaired CYP3A4 activity due to the point mutation. These findings suggest genotyping of CYP3A4 might be of value in providing guidance for the use of sufentanil.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is required for metabolic reactions of steroid and drug metabolizing cytochrome P450 proteins located in endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in POR cause a complex set of disorders resembling combined deficiencies of multiple steroid metabolizing enzymes. The P450 oxidoreductase deficiency (PORD) was first reported in patients with symptoms of defects in steroidogenic cytochrome P450 enzymes and ambiguous genitalia, and bone malformation features resembling Antley-Bixler syndrome. POR is now classified as a separate and rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), which may cause disorder of sexual development (DSD). Since the initial description of PORD in 2004, a large number of POR mutations and polymorphisms have been described. In this report we have performed computational analysis of mutations and polymorphisms in POR linked to metabolism of steroids and xenobiotics and pathology of PORD from the reported cases. The mutations in POR that were identified in patients with disruption of steroidogenesis also have severe effects on cytochrome P450 proteins involved in metabolism of drugs. Different variations in POR show a range of diverse effects on different partner proteins that are often linked to the location of the particular variants. The variations in POR that cause defective binding of co-factors always have damaging effects on all partner proteins, while the mutations causing subtle structural changes may lead to altered interaction with partner proteins and the overall effect may be different for each individual partner. Computational analysis of available sequencing data and mutation analysis shows that Japanese (R457H), Caucasian (A287P) and Turkish (399-401) populations can be linked to unique founder mutations. Other mutations identified so far were identified as rare alleles or in single isolated reports. The common polymorphism of POR is the variant A503V which can be found in about 27% of alleles in general population but there are remarkable differences among different sub populations.

Abstract
PURPOSE Individual variability in the endogenous CYP3A metabolite 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4βOHC) is substantial, but to which extent this is determined by genetic and nongenetic factors remains unclear. The aim of the study was to evaluate the explanatory power of candidate genetic variants and key nongenetic factors on individual variability in 4βOHC levels in a large naturalistic patient population. METHODS We measured 4βOHC concentration in serum samples from 655 patients and used multiple linear regression analysis to estimate the quantitative effects of CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, and POR*28 variant alleles, comedication with CYP3A inducers, inhibitors and substrates, sex, and age on individual 4βOHC levels. RESULTS 4βOHC concentration ranged >100-fold in the population, and the multiple linear regression model explained about one fourth of the variability (R 2 = 0.23). Only comedication with inducers or inhibitors, sex, and POR genotype were significantly associated with individual variability in 4βOHC level. The estimated quantitative effects on 4βOHC levels were greatest for inducer comedication (+>313%, P < 0.001), inhibitor comedication (-34%, P = 0.021), and female sex (+30%, P < 0.001), while only a modestly elevated 4βOHC level was observed in carriers vs. noncarriers of POR*28 (+11%, P = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, and POR*28 variant alleles are of limited importance for overall individual variability in 4βOHC levels compared to nongenetic factors.

Abstract
AIM Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is the only flavoprotein that donates electrons to all microsomal P450 enzymes (CYP), and several POR SNPs have been shown to be important contributors to altered CYP activity or CYP-mediated drug metabolism. In this study we examined the association between 6 POR SNPs and tacrolimus concentrations in Chinese renal transplant recipients. METHODS A total of 154 renal transplant recipients were enrolled. Genotyping of CYP3A5*3 and 6 POR SNPs was performed. All patients received a triple immunosuppressive regimen comprising tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and prednisone. Dose-adjusted tacrolimus trough concentrations were obtained on d 7 (C0D7/D) after transplantation when steady-state concentration of tacrolimus was achieved (dosage had been unchanged for more than 3 d). RESULTS Tacrolimus C0D7/D in CYP3A5*3/*3/ POR rs1057868-rs2868177 GC-GT diplotype carriers was 1.62- and 2.72-fold higher than those in CYP3A5*3/*3/ POR rs1057868-rs2868177 GC-GT diplotype non-carriers and CYP3A5*1 carriers (220.17±48.09 vs 135.69±6.86 and 80.84±5.27 ng/mL/mg/kg, respectively, P<0.0001). Of CYP3A5*3/*3/ POR rs1057868-rs2868177GC-GT diplotype carriers, 85.71% exceeded the upper limit of the target range (8 ng/mL), which was also significantly higher compared with the latter two groups (14.29% and 0.00%, respectively, P<0.0001). The CYP3A5*3 and POR rs1057868-rs2868177 GC-GT diplotype explained 31.7% and 5.7%, respectively, of the inter-individual variability of tacrolimus C0D7/D, whereas the POR rs1057868-rs2868177 GC-GT diplotype could explain 10.9% of the inter-individual variability of tacrolimus C0D7/D in CYP3A5 non-expressers. CONCLUSION The CYP3A5*3 and POR rs1057868-rs2868177 GC-GT diplotype accounted for the inter-individual variation of tacrolimus C0D7/D. Genotyping of POR rs1057868-rs2868177 diplotypes would help to differentiate initial tacrolimus dose requirements and to achieve early target C0 ranges in Chinese renal transplant recipients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A polymorphisms are associated with variable CYP3A metabolizing enzyme activity and tacrolimus pharmacokinetics. We sought to determine the singular and combined impact of CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 variants on tacrolimus drug disposition in adult heart transplant recipients. METHODS The retrospective study included 76 patients greater than one year post-heart transplant and receiving tacrolimus. Patients were genotyped for CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3, and combined genotypes were classified as follows: extensive metabolizers (EM, CYP3A4*1/*1+CYP3A5*1 carriers), intermediate metabolizers (IM, CYP3A4*1/*1+CYP3A5*3/*3, or CYP3A4*22 carriers+CYP3A5*1 carriers), and poor metabolizers (PM, CYP3A4*22 carriers+CYP3A5*3/*3). The primary outcome was tacrolimus dose-adjusted trough concentration (C0 /D, ng/mL per mg/d). RESULTS In singular analysis, tacrolimus C0 /D did not differ significantly between CYP3A4*22 genotype groups. However, tacrolimus C0 /D was 1.8-fold lower (P<.001) in CYP3A5 expressers vs non-expressers. When combined CYP3A genotypes were evaluated, tacrolimus C0 /D was 1.8-fold lower in EMs vs IMs (P<.001) and EMs vs PMs (P=.001). Tacrolimus C0 /D did not differ significantly between CYP3A IMs vs PMs. CONCLUSION Combined CYP3A genotype was associated with tacrolimus drug disposition in adult heart transplant recipients, but the effect was largely driven by CYP3A5*3. These data suggest that CYP3A4*22 and combined CYP3A genotypes are unlikely to provide additional information beyond CYP3A5 genotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In children and adolescents with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) pharmacotherapy with statins is the cornerstone in the current regimen to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) and premature coronary heart disease risk. There is, however, a great interindividual variation in response to therapy, partially attributed to genetic factors. The polymorphic enzyme POR transfers electrons from NADPH to CYP450 enzymes including CYP3A, which metabolize atorvastatin. POR*28 polymorphism is associated with increased CYP3A enzyme activity. We analyzed the association of POR*28 allele with response to atorvastatin. MATERIALS & METHODS One hundred and five FH children and adolescents treated with atorvastatin at doses 10-40 mg were included in the study. Total cholesterol (TChol) and LDLc were measured at baseline and after 6 months of treatment. POR*28 allele was analyzed with TaqMan assay. CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3 and SLCO1B1 521T>C and 388A>G genotypes were also determined with TaqMan or PCR-RFLP methods. RESULTS POR*28 carriers had significantly lower percent mean reduction of TChol (33.1% in *1/*1, 29.8% in *1/*28 and 25.9% in *28/*28 individuals, p = 0.045) and of LDLc (43.9% in *1/*1, 40.9% in *1/*28 and 30.8% in *28/*28 individuals, p = 0.013). In multivariable linear regression adjusted for confounding factors, POR*28 genotypes, additionally to baseline cholesterol level, accounted for an estimated 8.3% and 7.3% of overall variability in % TChol and LDLc reduction (β: 4.05; 95% CI: 1.73-6.37; p = 0.001 and β: 5.08; 95% CI: 1.62-8.54; p = 0.004, respectively). CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3 and SLCO1B1 521T>C and 388A>G polymorphisms were not associated with lipid reductions and did not modify the effect of POR*28 on atorvastatin response. CONCLUSION In children with FH, carriage of POR*28 allele is associated with reduced effect of atorvastatin on TChol and LDLc and therefore identifies FH children that may require higher atorvastatin doses to achieve full therapeutic benefits. Additional studies in different populations are needed to replicate this association.
