Abstract
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects approximately 400 million people worldwide and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. The effect of EPHX1 and GSTP1 gene polymorphisms on COPD risk has not been fully characterized. Objective: To investigate the association of EPHX1 and GSTP1 gene polymorphisms with COPD risk. Methods: A systematic search was conducted on 9 databases to identify studies published in English and Chinese. The analysis was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses reporting guidelines (PRISMA). The pooled OR and 95% CI were calculated to evaluate the association of EPHX1 and GSTP1 gene polymorphisms with COPD risk. The I2 test, Q test, Egger's test, and Begg's test were conducted to determine the level of heterogeneity and publication bias of the included studies. Results: In total, 857 articles were retrieved, among which 59 met the inclusion criteria. The EPHX1 rs1051740 polymorphism (homozygote, heterozygote, dominant, recessives, and allele model) was significantly associated with high risk of COPD risk. Subgroup analysis revealed that the EPHX1 rs1051740 polymorphism was significantly associated with COPD risk among Asians (homozygote, heterozygote, dominant, and allele model) and Caucasians (homozygote, dominant, recessives, and allele model). The EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism (heterozygote, dominant, and allele model) was significantly associated with a low risk of COPD. Subgroup analysis showed that the EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism (heterozygote, dominant, and allele model) was significantly associated with COPD risk among Asians. The GSTP1 rs1695 polymorphism (homozygote and recessives model) was significantly associated with COPD risk. Subgroup analysis showed that the GSTP1 rs1695 polymorphism (homozygote and recessives model) was significantly associated with COPD risk among Caucasians. The GSTP1 rs1138272 polymorphism (heterozygote and dominant model) was significantly associated with COPD risk. Subgroup analysis suggested that the GSTP1 rs1138272 polymorphism (heterozygote, dominant, and allele model) was significantly associated with COPD risk among Caucasians. Conclusion: The C allele in EPHX1 rs1051740 among Asians and the CC genotype among Caucasians may be risk factors for COPD. However, the GA genotype in EPHX1 rs2234922 may be a protective factor against COPD in Asians. The GG genotype in GSTP1 rs1695 and the TC genotype in GSTP1 rs1138272 may be risk factors for COPD, especially among Caucasians.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Carbamazepine (CBZ), an anti-seizure drug, is widely prescribed for the management of focal seizures. At a given therapeutic dose, CBZ exhibits marked interindividual variation in the plasma CBZ levels. The aim wasto study the influence of EPHX1 c.337 T>C and UGT2B7*2 genetic polymorphisms on plasma carbamazepine (CBZ) levels in persons with epilepsy (PWE) from South India. METHODS 115 PWE belong to South India origin who are on carbamazepine monotherapy were recruited. Genotyping of the two variants weredone using RT-PCR method. PWE who had seizure freedom for one year and their last dose which was not changed for one year duration were included and their plasma levels of CBZ and its active metabolite CBZ 10,11 epoxide were analysed by reverse phase HPLC. RESULTS In EPHX1 c. 337 (T>C) polymorphism, the PWE carrying CC had lower plasma CBZ levels when compared to CT genotype (2.45 μg/ml vs 3.15 μg/ml. In UGT2B7*2, PWE carrying homozygous mutant TT had higher levels when compared with CT (3.09 μg/ml vs 2.74 μg/ml) genotype but found no statistical significance. Mutant genotype of EPHX1 (CC) had higher metabolic ratio compared to TT genotype (1.33 vs 1.17) but not found to be statistically significant. Mutant genotype of UGT2B7*2 (TT) was found to be having lower metabolic ratio when compared with CC genotype (1.18 vs 1.35; p value =0.08). CONCLUSION PWE carrying EPHX1 c.337 T>C (rs1051740) and UGT2B7*2 (rs7439366) genetic polymorphisms did not affect the plasma CBZ levels and metabolic ratio of PWE of South Indian origin. However, this finding should be confirmed in a larger sample size which may help in optimization and personalized CBZ therapy in South Indians.

Abstract
Lipodystrophy syndromes are rare diseases with defects in the development or maintenance of adipose tissue, frequently leading to severe metabolic complications. They may be genetic or acquired, with variable clinical forms, and are largely underdiagnosed. The European Consortium of Lipodystrophies, ECLip, is a fully functional non-profit network of European centers of excellence working in the field of lipodystrophies. It provides a favorable environment to promote large Europe-wide and international collaborations to increase the basic scientific understanding and clinical management of these diseases. It works with patient advocacy groups to increase public awareness. The network also promotes a European Patient Registry of lipodystrophies, as a collaborative research platform for consortium members. The annual congress organized gives an update of the findings of network research groups, highlighting clinical and fundamental aspects. The talks presented during the meeting in Cambridge, UK, in 2022 are summarized in these minutes.

Abstract
The gene polymorphisms of ABCB1, EPHX1, and SCN1A were found to influence carbamazepine (CBZ) metabolism and resistance in epilepsy patients, but the relevance remains controversial. To reveal the relationships among the gene polymorphisms of ABCB1, EPHX1, SCN1A and the metabolism and resistance of CBZ, the databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Science and Technique Journals, China Biology medicine disc and Wan Fang were retrieved for suitable studies up to April 2021. 18 studies containing 3293 epilepsy patients were included. The result revealed the gene polymorphism of ABCB1 c.3435C > T is significantly associated with altered concentration-dose ratios of CBZ (CDRCBZ) (CC vs. CT, OR = 0.25 (95% CI: 0.08-0.42), P = 0.004), and EPHX c.416A > G gene polymorphism may also significantly adjusted the concentration-dose ratios of carbamazepine-10, 11-trans dihydrodiol (CDRCBZD) (AA vs. GG, OR = 0.48 (95% CI: 0.01-0.96), P = 0.045; AG vs. GG, OR = 0.68 (95% CI: 0.16-1.20), P = 0.010, respectively) and the ratio of CBZD:carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (CBZE) (CDRCBZD:CDRCBZE) (AG vs GG, OR = 0.83 (95% CI: 0.31-1.36), P = 0.002). Furthermore, ABCB1 c.3435C > T polymorphism was also observed to be significantly influenced CBZ resistance (CC vs TT, OR = 1.78 (95% CI: 1.17-2.72), P = 0.008; CT vs TT, OR = 1.60 (95% CI: 1.12-2.30), P = 0.01; CC + CT vs TT, OR = 1.61 (95% CI: 1.15-2.26), P = 0.006, respectively). Therefore, CBZ metabolism and resistance in patients with epilepsy may be adjusted by the gene polymorphisms of ABCB1 c.3435C > T and EPHX1 c.416A > G which provides the further scientific basis for clinical individualized therapy of epilepsy. However, larger sample size studies are still needed to provide further conclusive evidence.

Abstract
Epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) has been reported to be related to the development of several tumors. However, the regulation of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) development by EPHX1 has not been reported. We used proteomic technology and found that the EPHX1 protein was highly expressed in CRPC tissues and the CRPC cell line C4-2. We performed screening and found that EPHX1 is a direct target of miR-491-5p. High miR-491-5p expression significantly reduced the EPHX1 level in C4-2 cells and inhibited C4-2 cell proliferation and migration. Zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has good thermal stability, a simple synthesis method, tumor site stability, and specific acid responsiveness. We synthesized ZIF-8 nanodrug vectors to deliver miR-491-5p into C4-2 cells. After loading miR-491-5p into ZIF-8, we modified the ZIF-8 surface with folic acid (FA) as the target group (FA@ZIF-8). Our synthesized nanodrug carrier showed less cytotoxicity to C4-2 cells even at 200 μg/ml. Modified FA could increase the efficiency of nanomaterial entry into C4-2 cells. FA@miR-491-5p@ZIF-8 could stably release miR-491-5p for a long period in both phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) and acetate buffer (pH 4.8), and miR-491-5p was released faster at the beginning of the experiment in acetate buffer (pH 4.8). FA@miR-491-5p@ZIF-8 significantly reduced C4-2 cell proliferation and migration, and FA@miR-491-5p@ZIF-8 had a better effect than miR-491-5p alone. In vivo, FA@miR-491-5p@ZIF-8 significantly inhibited CRPC growth in nude mice. Overall, we verified that miR-491-4p regulated CRPC development by targeting EPHX1. The drug nanocarrier FA@miR-491-5p@ZIF-8 not only significantly reduced C4-2 CRPC cell proliferation and migration but also significantly inhibited CRPC growth. Our research provides a theoretical basis for treatment and treatment strategies for CRPC.

Abstract
Aim: We evaluated the potential influence of genetic (CYP3A5, EPHX1, NR1I2, HNF4A, ABCC2, RALBP1, SCN1A, SCN2A and GABRA1) and nongenetic factors on carbamazepine (CBZ) response, adverse drug reactions and CBZ plasma concentrations in 126 Mexican Mestizos (MM) with epilepsy. Subjects & methods: Patients were genotyped for 27 variants using TaqMan® assays. Results: CBZ response was associated with NR1I2 variants and lamotrigine cotreatment. CBZ-induced adverse drug reactions were related to antiepileptic polytherapy and SCN1A rs2298771/rs3812718 haplotype. CBZ plasma concentrations were influenced by NR1I2-rs2276707 and -rs3814058, and by phenytoin cotreatment. CBZ daily dose was also influenced by NR1I2-rs3814055 and EPHX1-rs1051740. Conclusion: Interindividual variability in CBZ treatment was partly explained by NR1I2, EPHX1 and SCN1A variants, as well as antiepileptic cotreatment in MM with epilepsy.

Abstract
AIMS Carbamazepine (CBZ) is one of the most common causative drugs of severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Although genetic polymorphisms of the human leucocyte antigens (HLA) are well recognized key elements for the susceptibility to CBZ-induced SCARs, some evidence suggest that polymorphisms of microsomal epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) may also contribute to the risk of these SCARs. This study investigated the association between the HLA and EPHX1 polymorphisms on CBZ-induced SCARs in large sample sizes and well-defined SCARs patients. METHODS Ninety-one CBZ-induced SCARs Thai patients and 144 CBZ-tolerant patients were enrolled in the study. The genotypes of HLA-A, HLA-B and EPHX1 were determined. RESULTS Only 2 HLA alleles including HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-A*24:07 were statistically significant association with CBZ-induced SJS/TEN. The highest risk was observed in patients with HLA-B*15:02 allele (OR = 44.33, 95% confidence interval = 20.24-97.09, corrected P-value = 6.80 × 10-29 ). Moreover, HLA-B75 serotypes were significantly associated with CBZ-induced SJS/TEN groups with an odds ratio of 81.00 (95% confidence interval = 32.39-202.56, corrected P-value = 3.84 × 10-34 ). There is no association between EPHX1 c.337 T > C polymorphism and all phenotypes of CBZ-induced SCARs. CONCLUSION The HLA-B*15:02 allele is the strongest genetic marker for the prediction of SJS/TEN induced by CBZ in Thai population. Screening for other alleles in the HLA-B75 serotype increases sensitivity for prediction of a life-threatening SCARs caused by CBZ.

Abstract
Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) regulate cellular homeostasis through hydrolysis of epoxides to less-reactive diols. The first discovered EH was EPHX1, also known as mEH. EH functions remain partly unknown, and no pathogenic variants have been reported in humans. We identified two de novo variants located in EPHX1 catalytic site in patients with a lipoatrophic diabetes characterized by loss of adipose tissue, insulin resistance, and multiple organ dysfunction. Functional analyses revealed that these variants led to the protein aggregation within the endoplasmic reticulum and to a loss of its hydrolysis activity. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated EPHX1 knockout (KO) abolished adipocyte differentiation and decreased insulin response. This KO also promoted oxidative stress and cellular senescence, an observation confirmed in patient-derived fibroblasts. Metreleptin therapy had a beneficial effect in one patient. This translational study highlights the importance of epoxide regulation for adipocyte function and provides new insights into the physiological roles of EHs in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a wildly used anti-epileptic drug (AED). Increasing evidence suggested that polymorphisms in Epoxide Hydrolase1 (EPHX1) gene are associated with the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CBZ, albeit the results were inconsistent. METHODS A literature search on PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted to identify eligible studies published between 1974 and 2020. A meta-analysis was performed and the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were estimated using a random-effects model. The heterogeneity and leave-one-study-out sensitivity analyses of each article and the publication bias were also performed. All the statistical analyses were performed using STATA 14.0. RESULTS A total of 6 articles with 1746 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. A significant correlation was detected between EPHX1 rs1051740 T > C polymorphisms and decreased plasma concentration of CBZ (TT vs CC: SMD = 0.34, P < 0.001; TC vs CC: SMD = 0.35, P = 0.009). However, similar results were not detected in the comparison of TT vs. TC in the EPHX1 rs1051740 T > C variation (P = 0.637), while subgroup analyses showed an association with plasma CBZ concentration in the non-Asian group (P < 0.001, I2 = 0.0%, Ph = 0.400). Although the association of EPHX1 rs2234922 A > G polymorphisms with plasma CBZ concentration was not detected (AA vs GG:SMD = 0.54, P = 0.102; AA vs AG:SMD = -0.05, P = 0.670; AG vs GG: SMD = 0.86, P = 0.107), subgroup analyses showed that the GG genotype EPHX1 rs2234922 was associated with increased plasma CBZ concentration in the Asian group (P = 0.005, I2 = 48.6%, Ph = 0.143). CONCLUSION EPHX1 rs1051740 T > C and rs2234922 A > G are important genetic variants associated with plasma CBZ concentration. The role of EPHX1 polymorphisms in the interindividual variability of plasma CBZ concentration varied significantly among different ethnic groups, which should be considered during clinical validation and in future studies.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase/epoxide hydrolase 1 (mEH/EPHX1) works in conjunction with cytochromes P450 to metabolize a variety of compounds, including xenobiotics, pharmaceuticals and endogenous lipids. mEH has been most widely studied for its role in metabolism of xenobiotic and pharmaceutical compounds where it converts hydrophobic and reactive epoxides to hydrophilic diols that are more readily excreted. Inhibition or genetic disruption of mEH can be deleterious in the face of many industrial, environmental or pharmaceutical exposures and EPHX1 polymorphisms are associated with the development of exposure-related cancers. The role of mEH in endogenous epoxy-fatty acid (EpFA) metabolism has been less well studied. In vitro, mEH metabolizes most EpFAs at a far slower rate than soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and has thus been generally considered to exert a minor role in EpFA metabolism in vivo. Indeed, sEH inhibitors or sEH-deficiency increase EpFA levels and are protective in animal models of cardiovascular disease. Recently, however, mEH was found to have a previously unrecognized and substantial role in EpFA metabolism in vivo. While few studies have examined the role of mEH in cardiovascular homeostasis, there is now substantial evidence that mEH can regulate cardiovascular function through regulation of EpFA metabolism. The discovery of a prominent role for mEH in epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) metabolism, in particular, suggests that additional studies on the role of mEH in cardiovascular biology are warranted.

Abstract
The mammalian epoxide hydrolase (EPHX)3 is known from in vitro experiments to efficiently hydrolyze the linoleate epoxides 9,10-epoxyoctadecamonoenoic acid (EpOME) and epoxyalcohol 9R,10R-trans-epoxy-11E-13R-hydroxy-octadecenoate to corresponding diols and triols, respectively. Herein we examined the physiological relevance of EPHX3 to hydrolysis of both substrates in vivo. Ephx3−/− mice show no deficiency in EpOME-derived plasma diols, discounting a role for EPHX3 in their formation, whereas epoxyalcohol-derived triols esterified in acylceramides of the epidermal 12R-lipoxygenase pathway are reduced. Although the Ephx3−/− pups appear normal, measurements of transepidermal water loss detected a modest and statistically significant increase compared with the wild-type or heterozygote mice, reflecting a skin barrier impairment that was not evident in the knockouts of mouse microsomal (EPHX1/microsomal epoxide hydrolase) or soluble (EPHX2/sEH). This barrier phenotype in the Ephx3−/− pups was associated with a significant decrease in the covalently bound ceramides in the epidermis (40% reduction, p < 0.05), indicating a corresponding structural impairment in the integrity of the water barrier. Quantitative LC-MS analysis of the esterified linoleate-derived triols in the murine epidermis revealed a marked and isomer-specific reduction (∼85%) in the Ephx3−/− epidermis of the major trihydroxy isomer 9R,10S,13R-trihydroxy-11E-octadecenoate. We conclude that EPHX3 (and not EPHX1 or EPHX2) catalyzes hydrolysis of the 12R-LOX/eLOX3-derived epoxyalcohol esterified in acylceramide and may function to control flux through the alternative and crucial route of metabolism via the dehydrogenation pathway of SDR9C7. Importantly, our findings also identify a functional role for EPHX3 in transformation of a naturally esterified epoxide substrate, pointing to its potential contribution in other tissues.

Abstract
Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of VKORC1, CYP2C9, CYP4F2 and EPHX1 and nongenetic factors on warfarin maintenance dose in a very elderly, frail Han-Chinese population. Materials & methods: 16 variants of VKORC1, CYP2C9, CYP4F2 and EPHX1 were genotyped. Univariate analysis and multivariable regression model were performed for the associations of gene variants and warfarin maintenance dose. Results & conclusion: EPHX1 rs2260863 nonvariant CC homozygotes required significantly lower daily warfarin dose than GC heterozygotes. In the multivariable model, VKORC1 rs9923231, CYP2C9 rs1057910, EPHX1 rs2260863, CYP4F2 rs2189784 and body surface area altogether explained 26.9% of dosing variability. This study revealed the main impact of genetic factors on warfarin response in this special population.

Abstract
Objective: We carried out a meta-analysis of case-control studies to determine whether epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) gene polymorphism rs1051740 was related to the risk of ovarian cancer. Methods: Electronic databases were searched for relevant articles published in English or Chinese language. We calculated crude odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) to assess the relationship of EPHX1 polymorphism rs1051740 with ovarian cancer risk. In addition, subgroup analyses were also conducted based on ethnicity and control source. Between-study heterogeneity was inspected with Q test and I2 statistic. Results: Five eligible studies with a total of 1919 ovarian cancer patients and 1829 controls were ultimately included in the present meta-analysis. Overall results demonstrated that the association between EPHX1 polymorphism rs1051740 and ovarian cancer risk had no statistical significance either in total analysis or in subgroup analyses by ethnicity and source of control. Conclusion: EPHX1 polymorphism rs1051740 may have no independent effect on ovarian cancer susceptibility.

Abstract
In this study, we scrutinized the effects of curcumin and AFB1 supplemented diet alone or in combination on phase-ӀӀ enzymes. Histopathological examination showed that after 28 days, AFB1 (5.0 mg/kg diet) induced liver injury in broilers, but curcumin supplementation partially ameliorated liver injury in a dose-dependent manner. RT-PCR data revealed that AFB1 significantly (p < 0.01) down-regulated Nrf2 and its downstream genes mRNA expression level. Moreover, Western blot analysis showed that Nrf2, GSTM2, and GSTA3 protein expression level was markedly (p < 0.01) reduced in AFB1-fed group. However, curcumin supplementation ameliorated AFB1-induced liver injury via enhancing phase-ӀӀ enzymes expressions and activity. HPLC results showed that curcumin increased AFB1-GSH conjugation in-vitro in liver cytosol. Surprisingly, similar trends were noted in mRNA, protein expression level of Nrf2 and its downstream genes at day 35, one week after the withdrawal of AFB1 and curcumin from the diet, showing the preventive effects of curcumin.

Abstract
Experimental and epidemiological data have shown that acute myeloid leukemia in early-age (i-AML) originates prenatally. The risk association between transplacental exposure to benzene metabolites and i-AML might be influenced by genetic susceptibility. In this study, we investigated the relationship between genetic polymorphisms in CYP2E1, EPHX1, MPO, NQO1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes, and i-AML risk. The study included 101 i-AMLs and 416 healthy controls. Genomic DNA from study subjects was purified from bone marrow or peripheral blood aspirates and genotyped for genetic polymorphisms by real-time PCR allelic discrimination, Sanger sequencing and multiplex PCR. Crude and adjusted odds ratios (OR, adjOR, respectively) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were assessed using unconditional logistic regression to estimate the magnitude of risk associations. EPHX1 rs1051740 T>C was associated with i-AML risk under the co-dominant (adjOR 3.04, P = 0.003) and recessive (adjOR 2.99, P = 0.002) models. In stratified analysis, EPHX1 rs1051740 was associated with increased risk for i-AML with KMT2A rearrangement (adjOR 3.06, P = 0.045), i-AML with megakaryocytic differentiation (adjOR 5.10, P = 0.008), and i-AML with type I mutation (adjOR 2.02, P = 0.037). EPHX1 rs1051740-rs2234922 C-G haplotype was also associated with increased risk for i-AML (adjOR 2.55, P = 0.043), and for i-AML with KMT2A rearrangement (adjOR 3.23, P = 0.034). Since EPHX1 enzyme is essential in cellular defense against epoxides, the diminished enzymatic activity conferred by the variant allele C could explain the risk associations found for i-AML. In conclusion, EPHX1 rs1051740 plays an important role in i-AML's genetic susceptibility by modulating the carcinogenic effects of epoxide exposures in the bone marrow.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long term poor airflow which worsens over time. It is considered to be one of the top five chronic diseases of the world in terms of morbidity and mortality. Genetic variability has been found to contribute to the development of COPD. Although association between gene polymorphisms in EPHX1 and TNF-a genes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been found but till date no genetic association studies have been done in the COPD affected Kazakhstan population. The aim of the present work was to investigate the association between the Y113H polymorphism (rs1051740) in EPHX1 gene and -308G/A polymorphism (rs1800629) in TNF-a gene and COPD in Kazakhstan population. A case-control study was conducted in Astana and Akmola regions of Kazakhstan, involving 55 cases with COPD and 52 healthy individuals who served as the controls. The polymorphisms were determined using conventional PCR and Sanger sequencing method. Results show that for the EPHX1 gene Y113H polymorphism, the presence of an "C" allele (TC/CC genotype) was significantly overrepresented in the COPD patients compared to the controls. For the TNF-a gene -308G/A polymorphism, no significant difference was found between the two groups. Thus we found that, Y113H polymorphism in EPHX1 gene contributed to increased susceptibility to COPD in the Kazakhstan population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microsomal epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) may play an important role in epigenetic change and DNA repair concerned with lung cancer. Several studies have investigated the association between EPHX1 rs1051740 and lung cancer risk, but there is no consensus. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to further identify the relationship. METHODS The Pubmed and Embase databases were searched for eligible studies. An odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was used to assess the correlation between EPHX1 rs1051740 polymorphism and lung cancer risk through a meta-analysis. RESULTS Overall, no significant relationship was found between EPHX1 rs1051740 and lung cancer risk (CC vs. TT: OR=1.10, 95% CI=0.88-1.36; CC+CT vs. TT: OR=1.02, 95% CI=0.88-1.18; CC vs. TT+CT: OR=1.08, 95% CI=0.91-1.27; C vs. T: OR=1.04, 95% CI=0.93-1.17; CT vs. TT: OR=0.98, 95% CI=0.85-1.13). Nevertheless, further subgroup analysis by ethnicity demonstrated that EPHX1 rs1051740 with CC genotype or C allele was an increased risk for lung cancer in Asians (CC vs. TT: OR=1.54, 95% CI=1.23-1.94; CC vs. TT+CT: OR=1.43, 95% CI=1.20-1.71; C vs. T: OR=1.26, 95% CI=1.08-1.47). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis indicates that EPHX1 rs1051740 with CC genotype or C allele may be a risk factor in Asians.

Abstract
AIM The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of SNPs of major transporter and metabolizing enzyme genes on carbamazepine (CBZ) metabolism in Chinese patients with epilepsy. MATERIALS & METHODS For 210 epileptic patients treated with CBZ as monotherapy, nine SNPs in candidate genes ABCB1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, POR and EPHX1 were analyzed by PCR-RFLP or direct sequencing. Serum concentrations of CBZ, carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (CBZE) and carbamazepine-10,11-trans dihydrodiol (CBZD) were determined by HPLC. Dose-adjusted concentrations of CBZ (CDRCBZ), CBZE (CDRCBZE), CBZD (CDRCBZ D) and CBZD:CBZE ratio were used as evaluation parameters for CBZ metabolism. RESULTS The ABCB1 c.3435C>T was significantly associated with the CDR of CBZ and its major metabolites. CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3 could influence CBZ metabolism, while POR*28 had no effect on it. The EPHX1 c.416A>G and c.128G>C variants were significantly associated with CBZD:CBZE ratio. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that certain polymorphisms of major transporter and metabolizing enzyme genes could in part influence interindividual variability of CBZ metabolism in Chinese patients with epilepsy.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX1) is an evolutionarily highly conserved biotransformation enzyme for converting epoxides to diols. Notably, the enzyme is able to either detoxify or bioactivate a wide range of substrates. Mutations and polymorphic variants in the EPHX1 gene have been associated with susceptibility to several human diseases including cancer. This review summarizes the key knowledge concerning EPHX1 gene and protein structure, expression pattern and regulation, and substrate specificity. The relevance of EPHX1 for human pathology is especially discussed.

Abstract
Styrene exposure is still present in different occupational settings including manufacture of synthetic rubber, resins, polyesters and plastic. The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of polymorphic genes CYP2E1, EPHX1, GSTT1, and GSTM1 on the urinary concentrations of the styrene metabolites mandelic acid (MA), phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA) and on the concentration ratios between (MA+PGA) and urinary styrene (U-Sty) and airborne styrene (A-Sty), in 30 workers from two fiberglass-reinforced plastic manufacturing plants and 26 unexposed controls. Personal air sampling and biological monitoring results revealed that sometimes exposure levels exceeded both the threshold limit value (TLV) and the biological exposure index (BEI) suggested by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. A significantly reduced excretion of styrene metabolites (MA+PGA) in individuals carrying the CYP2E1*5B and CYP2E1*6 heterozygote alleles, with respect to the homozygote wild type, was observed only in the exposed group. A reduction was also detected, in the same group, in subjects carrying the slow allele EPHX1 (codon 113), through the lowering of (MA+PGA)/urinary styrene concentration ratio. In addition, the ratio between MA+PGA and the personal airborne styrene concentration appeared to be modulated by the predicted mEH activity, in the exposed group, as evidenced by univariate linear regression analysis. Our results confirm some previous hypotheses about the role of the polymorphism of genes coding for enzymes involved in the styrene detoxification pathway: this may significantly reduce the levels of excreted metabolites and therefore it must be taken into account in the interpretation of the biological monitoring results for occupational exposure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study explored the association between the risk of carbamazepine (CBZ)-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and CBZ dose, dose-adjusted concentration, and ABCB1, CYP3A4, EPHX1, FAS, SCN1A, MICA, and BAG6 polymorphisms in patients of Han ethnicity with epilepsy who were living in northeastern China. MATERIALS AND METHODS We determined the genotypes of patients with CBZ-SJS/TEN and CBZ-tolerant patients, who were used as controls, for ABCB1, CYP3A4, EPHX1, FAS, SCN1A, MICA, and BAG6 polymorphisms by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and direct sequencing. We measured the steady-state serum CBZ concentrations using fluorescence polarization immunoassay for the control patients. RESULTS We observed statistically significant differences in EPHX1 c.337T>C polymorphisms between patients with CBZ-SJS/TEN and CBZ-tolerant controls in terms of allelic and genotypic frequencies (p = 0.011 and p = 0.007, respectively). The C allele and the C-G diplotype of EPHX1 may play important roles in increasing the risk of CBZ-SJS/TEN development (odds ratio [OR] 0.478, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.267-0.855, p = 0.011; OR = 0.213, 95% CI = 0.049-0.930, p = 0.025, respectively). We did not observe any significant associations between ABCB1, CYP3A4, EPHX1, FAS, SCN1A, MICA or BAG6 genes and CBZ dose or dose-adjusted concentration in CBZ-tolerant patients. SIGNIFICANCE We found a significant association between EPHX1 c.337T>C polymorphisms and the development of CBZ-SJS/TEN in patients of Han ethnicity living in northeastern China. EPHX1 c.337T>C polymorphisms may contribute to the risk of severe CBZ-SJS/TEN by increasing the concentration of a CBZ metabolite, CBZ-10,11-epoxide, in patients with epilepsy.

Abstract
The microsomal epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) Tyr113His and His139Arg polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with esophageal cancer (EC) risk, yet the results of these previous results have been inconsistent or controversial. The objective of this study was to explore whether the EPHX1 Tyr113His and His139Arg polymorphisms confer risk to EC. The relevant studies were identified through a search of PubMed, Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Elsevier Science Direct, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database until May 2013. The association between the EPHX1 Tyr113His and His139Arg polymorphisms and EC risk was pooled by odds ratios (ORs) together with their 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs). A total of eight case-control studies with 1163 EC patients and 1868 controls (seven studies for both Tyr113His and His139Arg polymorphisms, one study only for Tyr113His polymorphism) were eventually identified. We found no association between EPHX1 Tyr113His and His139Arg polymorphisms and EC risk in overall population (For Tyr113His: His vs. Tyr: OR = 1.05, 95%CI = 0.95-1.15, P = 0.379; His/His vs. Tyr/Tyr: OR = 1.04, 95%CI = 0.88-1.22, P = 0.208; His/Tyr vs. Tyr/Tyr: OR = 0.96, 95%CI = 0.80-1.15, P = 0.577; His/His vs. His/Tyr + Tyr/Tyr: OR = 1.10, 95%CI = 0.96-1.26, P = 0.164; His/His + His/Tyr vs. Tyr/Tyr: OR = 1.01, 95%CI = 0.90-1.12, P = 0.543. For His139Arg: Arg vs. His: OR = 1.04, 95%CI = 0.94-1.14, P = 0.465; Arg/Arg vs. His/His: OR = 1.06, 95%CI = 0.91-1.24, P = 0.470; Arg/His vs. His/His: OR = 1.03, 95%CI = 0.91-1.16, P = 0.673; Arg/Arg vs. Arg/His + His/His: OR = 1.04, 95%CI = 0.85-1.27, P = 0.708; Arg/Arg + Arg/His vs. His/His: OR = 1.02, 95%CI = 0.93-1.13, P = 0.617). In subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, significant association has been found in neither EPHX1 Tyr113His nor His139Arg polymorphism. The current meta-analysis suggests no evidence of association between the EPHX1 polymorphism and EC risk.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH, EPHX1) is a critical biotransformation enzyme, catalyzing the metabolism of many xenobiotics. Human mEH is transcribed using alternative promoters. The upstream E1 promoter is active in liver while the far upstream E1b promoter drives the expression of mEH in all tissues, including liver. Although several liver-specific transcription factors have been identified in the regulation of E1 transcription, little is known regarding the mechanisms of E1b transcriptional regulation. Genome-wide mapping of DNase I hypersensitive sites revealed an open chromatin region between nucleotide -300 upstream and +400 downstream of E1b. This area coincides with a previously described promoter region responsible for maintaining high basal promoter activity. In silico analysis of this location revealed several Sp1/Sp3 binding sites. Site-directed mutagenesis of these motifs suppressed the transactivation activity of the E1b proximal promoter, indicating their importance as contributors to E1b promoter regulation. Further, E1b promoter activities were increased significantly following Sp1 and Sp3 overexpression, while Mithramycin A, a selective Sp1 inhibitor, reduced the promoter activities. EMSA studies demonstrated that Sp1 bound to two putative Sp1/Sp3 binding sites. ChIP analysis confirmed that both endogenous Sp1 and Sp3 were bound to the proximal promoter region of E1b. Knockdown of Sp1 expression using siRNA did not alter the endogenous E1b transcriptional level, while knockdown of Sp3 greatly decreased E1b expression in different human cell lines. Taken together, these results support the concept that Sp1 and Sp3 are functionally involved as transcriptional integrators regulating the basal expression of the derived mEH E1b variant transcript.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH, EPHX1) is a critical xenobiotic-metabolizing enzyme, catalyzing both detoxification and bioactivation reactions that direct the disposition of chemical epoxides, including the carcinogenic metabolites of several polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Recently, we discovered that a previously unrecognized and primate-specific EPHX1 transcript, termed E1-b, was actually the predominant driver of EPHX1 expression in all human tissues. In this study, we identify another human EPHX1 transcript, designated as E1-b'. Unusually, both the E1-b and E1-b' mRNA transcripts are generated from the use of a far upstream gene promoter, localized ∼18.5 kb 5'-upstream of the EPHX1 protein-coding region. Although expressed at comparatively lower levels than E1-b, the novel E1-b' transcript is readily detected in all tissues examined, with highest levels maintained in human ovary. The E1-b' mRNA possesses unusual functional features in its 5'-untranslated region, including a GC-rich leader sequence and two upstream AUGs that encode for short peptides of 26 and 17 amino acids in length, respectively. Results from in vitro transcription/translation assays and direct transfection in mammalian cells of either the E1-b' transcript or the encoded peptides demonstrated that the E1-b' upstream open reading frames (uORFs) are functional, with their presence markedly inhibiting the translation of EPHX1 protein, both in cis and in trans configurations. These unique uORF peptides exhibit no homology to any other known uORF sequences but likely function to mediate post-transcription regulation of EPHX1 and perhaps more broadly as translational regulators in human cells.

Abstract
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) is a bifunctional protein that plays a central role in the metabolism of numerous xenobiotics as well as mediating the sodium-dependent transport of bile acids into hepatocytes where they are involved in cholesterol excretion and metabolism, lipid digestion and regulating numerous signaling pathways. Previous studies have demonstrated the critical role of GATA-4 and a C/EBPα-NF/Y complex in the regulation of the mEH gene (EPHX1). In this study we show that HNF-4α and CAR/RXR also bind to the proximal promoter region and regulate EPHX1 expression. Bile acids, which inhibit the expression of HNF-4α also decrease the expression of EPHX1. Studies also established that the binding of HNF-4α was essential for the activation of EPHX1 activity by CAR suggesting the formation of a complex between these adjacent factors. The nature of this regulatory complex was further explored using a biotinylated oligonucleotide of this region in conjunction with BioMag beads and mass spectrometric analysis which demonstrated the presence of an additional inhibitory factor (PSF), confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation and ChIP analyses, which interacted with DNA-bound CAR/RXR/HNF-4α forming a 4-component regulatory complex.
