Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Valsartan is widely used for the treatment of moderate hypertension. However, previous studies have found that efficacy of the valsartan depends on the dose and intake. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 metabolizes ∼15% of the clinical drugs. Genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 markedly affect the safety and effectiveness of many drugs, which might lead to adverse reactions and therapeutic failure. Twenty-four novel CYP2C9 variants (*36-*60) had been previously discovered via gene sequencing in the Han population. Our study aims to evaluate the impact of 38 CYP2C9 variants from the Chinese population on valsartan metabolism compared with CYP2C9*1 in vitro. METHODS Wild-type CYP2C9*1 and other CYP2C9 variants were expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda 21 insect cells. Incubations were performed at 37 °C with 20-2000 μM substrate for 30 min. The metabolite 4-OH valsartan was determined via UPLC-MS/MS. RESULTS Among the 38 CYP2C9 variants, the enzymatic activities of most variants were significantly altered compared with the wild-type. Three variants (CYP2C9*27, *40 and *49) exhibited increased intrinsic clearance values (134-153% relative clearance). However, 12 variants (CYP *8, *13, *16, *19, *33, *36, *42, *43, *45, *52, *54, *58) caused >90% decreases in the relative clearance of valsartan compared to CYP2C9*1. CONCLUSIONS Our research provides systematic data for evaluating the effects of CYP2C9 variants on valsartan metabolism in the Chinese population. These results will expand our understanding of the impact of CYP2C9 genetic polymorphisms on valsartan metabolism and will contribute to precision medicine.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is a major drug-metabolizing enzyme that represents 20% of the hepatic CYPs and is responsible for the metabolism of 15% of drugs. A general concern in drug discovery is to avoid the inhibition of CYP leading to toxic drug accumulation and adverse drug-drug interactions. However, the prediction of CYP inhibition remains challenging due to its complexity. We developed an original machine learning approach for the prediction of drug-like molecules inhibiting CYP2C9. We created new predictive models by integrating CYP2C9 protein structure and dynamics knowledge, an original selection of physicochemical properties of CYP2C9 inhibitors, and machine learning modeling. We tested the machine learning models on publicly available data and demonstrated that our models successfully predicted CYP2C9 inhibitors with an accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of approximately 80%. We experimentally validated the developed approach and provided the first identification of the drugs vatalanib, piriqualone, ticagrelor and cloperidone as strong inhibitors of CYP2C9 with IC values <18 μM and sertindole, asapiprant, duvelisib and dasatinib as moderate inhibitors with IC50 values between 40 and 85 μM. Vatalanib was identified as the strongest inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.067 μM. Metabolism assays allowed the characterization of specific metabolites of abemaciclib, cloperidone, vatalanib and tarafenacin produced by CYP2C9. The obtained results demonstrate that such a strategy could improve the prediction of drug-drug interactions in clinical practice and could be utilized to prioritize drug candidates in drug discovery pipelines.

Abstract
Many enzymes, particularly in one single family, with highly conserved structures and folds exhibit rather distinct substrate specificities. The underlying mechanism remains elusive, the resolution of which is of great importance for biochemistry, biophysics, and bioengineering. Here, we performed a neutron scattering experiment and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on two structurally similar CYP450 proteins; CYP101 primarily catalyzes one type of ligands, then CYP2C9 can catalyze a large range of substrates. We demonstrated that it is the high density of salt bridges in CYP101 that reduces its structural flexibility, which controls the ligand access channel and the fluctuation of the catalytic pocket, thus restricting its selection on substrates. Moreover, we performed MD simulations on 146 different kinds of CYP450 proteins, spanning distinct biological categories including Fungi, Archaea, Bacteria, Protista, Animalia, and Plantae, and found the above mechanism generally valid. We demonstrated that, by fine changes of chemistry (salt-bridge density), the CYP450 superfamily can vary the structural flexibility of its member proteins among different biological categories, and thus differentiate their substrate specificities to meet the specific biological needs. As this mechanism is well-controllable and easy to be implemented, we expect it to be generally applicable in future enzymatic engineering to develop proteins of desired substrate specificities.

Abstract
The drug-drug interaction (DDI) risk of phenytoin with several topical formulations of miconazole is still unclear. The present investigation conducted in vitro-in vivo extrapolation to predict the potential risks. Our data indicated that miconazole potently inhibited phenytoin hydroxylation in both pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs) and recombinant cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) with the Ki values of 125 ± 7 nM and 30 ± 2 nM, respectively. Quantitative prediction of DDI risk suggests that, beside intravenous administration or swallowed tablet, combination of phenytoin and miconazole high dose oral gel or buccal tablet may also result in a clinically significant increase of phenytoin AUC (>53%) by the inhibition of miconazole against phenytoin hydroxylation, consequently a higher frequency of adverse events, while the coadministration of miconazole vaginal formulation and phenytoin will be safe.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is one of the most important drugs metabolizing enzymes and accounts for the metabolism of about 13%-17% of clinical drugs. Like other members in CYP2 family, CYP2C9 gene exhibits great genetic polymorphism among different races and individuals. CYP2C9*18 is one CYP2C9 allelic variant identified in a Southeast Asian population and is estimated to cause the amino acid substitutions of I359L and D397A in CYP2C9 enzyme simultaneously. Limited by the low expression level in bacteria and COS-7 cells, no valuable enzyme kinetics have been reported on this CYP2C9 variant. In this study, the baculovirus-based system was used for the high expression of recombinant CYP2C9 s in insect cells. As a result, together with I359L substitution, D397A could significantly decrease the protein expression of CYP2C9.18 in insect cells, although substitution of D397A alone had no effect on the expression of CYP2C9 in vitro. As compared with that of wild-type enzyme, both CYP2C9.18 variant and D397A variant could decrease more than 80% of the catalytic activity of CYP2C9 enzyme toward three probe substrates, suggesting that caution should be exercised when patients carrying CYP2C9*18 taking medicines metabolized by CYP2C9 enzyme with a narrow therapeutic window.

Abstract
The potential for new chemical entities to inhibit the major cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms is routinely evaluated to minimize the risk of developing drugs with drug-drug interaction liabilities. CYP inhibition assays are routinely performed in a high-throughput format to efficiently screen large numbers of compounds. In evaluating a time-saving assay using diclofenac as the CYP2C9 probe substrate, a discrepancy was observed in which minimal inhibition was detected using diclofenac whereas using (S)-warfarin resulted in potent inhibition, supporting the presence of dual-binding sites in the relatively large CYP2C9 active site cavity.These observations provided further insights into explaining the reported ineffective inactivation of CYP2C9 for the pan-CYP inactivator 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT). Mechanistic reversible and time-dependent inhibition experiments revealed that the ineffective CYP2C9 inactivation by ABT was also probe-dependent, with utilization of (S)-warfarin as the probe substrate resulting in more potent CYP2C9 inhibition by ABT compared to diclofenac. Addition of (S)-warfarin to the reversible and time-dependent inhibition experiments between ABT and diclofenac resulted in an attenuation of the inhibitory effects of ABT on CYP2C9-mediated diclofenac metabolism. Molecular docking studies further confirmed that (S)-warfarin and diclofenac preferentially bind in different regions of the CYP2C9 active site, with (S)-warfarin occupying a distal "warfarin-binding pocket" and diclofenac occupying a binding site close to the active heme moiety. ABT preferentially binds in the distal warfarin-binding pocket, supporting that diclofenac is minimally deterred from access to the CYP2C9 active site in the presence of ABT, thus resulting in minimal inactivation. Simultaneously docking of (S)-warfarin and ABT revealed that (S)-warfarin outcompetes ABT for the distal binding site and results in the binding of ABT to the CYP2C9 active site, supporting the observations of potent inactivation of CYP2C9 when (S)-warfarin is the probe substrate.These results highlight that probe selection is crucial when evaluating CYP inhibition potential, and it is recommended that multiple probes be utilized for CYP2C9, similar to the approach routinely employed for CYP3A4. Further, utilization of ABT as a pan-inhibitor of CYP activity for investigational compounds, both in vitro and in vivo, should be accompanied with the understanding that residual CYP-mediated oxidative metabolism could potentially be observed for CYP2C9 substrates and should not necessarily be attributed to non-P450-mediated metabolism.

Abstract
This study concerns synthesis and evaluation of pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profile for all four stereoisomers of MF-8 (5-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(2-hydroxy-3-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)propyl)-5-methylimidazolidine-2,4-dione), the previously described, highly potent 5-HT7R ligand with antidepressant activity on mice. The combination of DFT calculations of 1H NMR chemical shifts with docking and dynamic simulations, in comparison to experimental screening results, provided prediction of the configuration for one of two present stereogenic centers. The experimental data for stereoisomers (MF-8A-MF-8D) confirmed the significant impact of stereochemistry on both, 5-HT7R affinity and antagonistic action, with Ki and Kb values in the range of 3-366 nM and 0.024-99 μM, respectively. We also indicated the stereochemistry-dependent influence of the tested compounds on P-glycoprotein efflux, absorption in Caco-2 model, metabolic pathway as well as CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 activities.

Abstract
The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 and 2C19 enzymes are two highly similar isoforms with key roles in drug metabolism. They are anchored to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane by their N-terminal transmembrane helix and interactions of their cytoplasmic globular domain with the membrane. However, their crystal structures were determined after N-terminal truncation and mutating residues in the globular domain that contact the membrane. Therefore, the CYP-membrane interactions are not structurally well-characterized and their dynamics and the influence of membrane interactions on CYP function are not well understood. We describe herein the modeling and simulation of CYP 2C9 and CYP 2C19 in a phospholipid bilayer. The simulations revealed that, despite high sequence conservation, the small sequence and structural differences between the two isoforms altered the interactions and orientations of the CYPs in the membrane bilayer. We identified residues (including K72, P73, and I99 in CYP 2C9 and E72, R73, and H99 in CYP 2C19) at the protein-membrane interface that contribute not only to the differing orientations adopted by the two isoforms in the membrane, but also to their differing substrate specificities by affecting the substrate access tunnels. Our findings provide a mechanistic interpretation of experimentally observed effects of mutagenesis on substrate selectivity.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics harnesses the utility of a patient's genome (n = 1) in decisions on which therapeutic drugs and in what amounts should be administered. Often, patients with shared ancestry present with comparable genetic profiles that predict drug response. However, populations are not static, thus, often, population mobility through migration, especially enmasse as is seen for refugees, changes the pharmacogenetic profiles of resultant populations and therefore observed responses to commonly used therapeutic drugs. For example, in the aftermath of the Syrian civil war since 2011, millions have fled their homes to neighboring countries in the Middle East. The growing permanence of refugees and mass migrations is a call to shift our focus in the life sciences community from old models of pharmaceutical innovation. These seismic social changes demand faster decisions for "population-to-population bridging," whereby novel drugs developed in or for particular regions/countries can meet with rational regulatory decisions/approval in world regions impacted by migrant/refugee populations whose profiles are dynamic, such as in the Eastern Mediterranean region at present. Thus, it is important to characterize and report on the prevalence of pharmacogenes that affect commonly used medications and predict if population changes may call for attention to particular differences that may impact health of patients. Thus, we report here on four single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variations in CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genes among Mersin-Turkish healthy volunteers in the Mersin Province in the Eastern Mediterranean region that is currently hosting a vast number of migrant populations from Syria. Both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 are very important pharmacogene molecular targets. We compare and report here on the observed SNP genetic variation in our sample with data on 12 world populations from dbSNP and discuss the feasibility of forecasting the pharmacokinetics of drugs utilized by migrant communities in Mersin and the Eastern Mediterranean region. This study can serve as a catalyst to invest in research in Syrian populations currently living in the Eastern Mediterranean. The findings have salience for rapid and rational regulatory decision-making for worldwide precision medicine and, specifically, "pharmacogenovigilance-guided bridging of pharmacokinetics" across world populations in the current era of planetary scale migration.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (CYP) are the main actors in the oxidation of xenobiotics and play a crucial role in drug safety, persistence, bioactivation, and drug-drug/food-drug interaction. This work aims to develop Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models to predict the drug interaction with two of the most important CYP isoforms, namely 2C9 and 3A4. The presented models are calibrated on 9122 drug-like compounds, using three different modelling approaches and two types of molecular description (classical molecular descriptors and binary fingerprints). For each isoform, three classification models are presented, based on a different approach and with different advantages: (1) a very simple and interpretable classification tree; (2) a local (k-Nearest Neighbor) model based classical descriptors and; (3) a model based on a recently proposed local classifier (N-Nearest Neighbor) on binary fingerprints. The salient features of the work are (1) the thorough model validation and the applicability domain assessment; (2) the descriptor interpretation, which highlighted the crucial aspects of P450-drug interaction; and (3) the consensus aggregation of models, which largely increased the prediction accuracy.

Abstract
Product regioselectivity as influenced by molecular recognition is a key aspect of enzyme catalysis. We applied large-scale two-dimensional (2D) umbrella sampling (USP) simulations to characterize acetaminophen (APAP) binding in the active sites of the family of Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes as a case study to show the different regioselectivity exhibited by a single substrate in comparative enzymes. Our results successfully explain the experimentally observed product regioselectivity for all five human CYPs included in this study, demonstrating that binding events play an important role in determining regioselectivity. In CYP2C9 and CYP3A4, weak interactions in an overall large active site cavity result in a fairly small binding free energy difference between APAP reactive binding states, consistent with experimental results that show little preference for resulting metabolites. In contrast, in CYP1A2 and CYP2E1, APAP is strongly restrained by a compact binding pocket, leading to a preferred binding conformation. The calculated binding equilibrium of APAP within the compact active site of CYP2A6 is able to predict the experimentally documented product ratios and is also applied to explain APAP regioselectivity in CYP1A2 and CYP2C9. APAP regioselectivity seems to be related to the selectivity for one binding conformation over another binding conformation as dictated by the size and shape of the active site. Additionally, unlike docking and molecular dynamics (MD), our free energy calculations successfully reproduced a unique APAP pose in CYP3A4 that had been reported experimentally, suggesting this approach is well suited to find the realistic binding pose and the lowest-energy starting structure for studying the chemical reaction step in the future.

Abstract
The mismatched CYP2C9 * 3 DNA was detected by a exciplex fluorescent-probe system. The exciplex fluorescent-probe model system comprises of two 12-mer oligonucleotides fluorescent-probes, complementary to neighbouring sites of a 24 (47) -mer DNA target and plasmid target, each equipped with moieties able to form an exciplex on correct, contiguous hybridization. Very similar results were obtained between the 24-mer target and the 47-mer target when WT and MT systems were detected by the exciplex fluorescent-probe. Exciplex bands at 505 nm were found for both 24(47)-mer WT and 24(47)-mer MT-targets at 5 degrees C, but were not distinctive enough to distinguish 24(47)-mer WT-target and 24(47)-mer MT-target. However the experiments were carried out at Tm, the exciplex band disappeared almost completely for 24(47)-mer MT-target system like control system, and there was still a strong exciplex band for the 24(47)-mer WT target system. Exciplex peaks at 505 nm were seen for the WT circular plasmids system, but not for MT circular plasmids. Therefore, mismatches of CYP2C9 * 3 DNA can be effectively detected by this exciplex construct, giving potential for single nucleotide polymorphism detection.
