Interindividual variability of CYP2C19-catalyzed drug metabolism due to differences in gene diplotypes and cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase content.

ABSTRACT: Large interindividual variability has been observed in the metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates in vivo. The study aimed to evaluate sources of this variability in CYP2C19 activity, focusing on CYP2C19 diplotypes and the cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR). CYP2C19 gene analysis was carried out on 347 human liver samples. CYP2C19 activity assayed using human liver microsomes confirmed a significant a priori predicted rank order for (S)-mephenytoin hydroxylase activity of CYP2C19*17/*17 > *1B/*17 > *1B/*1B > *2A/*17 > *1B/*2A > *2A/*2A diplotypes. In a multivariate analysis, the CYP2C19*2A allele and POR protein content were associated with CYP2C19 activity. Further analysis indicated a strong effect of the CYP2C19*2A, but not the *17, allele on both metabolic steps in the conversion of clopidogrel to its active metabolite. The present study demonstrates that interindividual variability in CYP2C19 activity is due to differences in both CYP2C19 protein content associated with gene diplotypes and the POR concentration.The Pharmacogenomics Journal advance online publication, 1 September 2015; doi:10.1038/tpj.2015.58.

Project description:Sunitinib is an orally administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor associated with idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity; however, the mechanisms of this toxicity remain unclear. We have previously shown that cytochromes P450 1A2 and 3A4 catalyze sunitinib metabolic activation via oxidative defluorination leading to a chemically reactive, potentially toxic quinoneimine, trapped as a glutathione (GSH) conjugate (M5). The goals of this study were to determine the impact of interindividual variability in P450 1A and 3A activity on sunitinib bioactivation to the reactive quinoneimine and sunitinib N-dealkylation to the primary active metabolite N-desethylsunitinib (M1). Experiments were conducted in vitro using single-donor human liver microsomes and human hepatocytes. Relative sunitinib metabolite levels were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. In human liver microsomes, the P450 3A inhibitor ketoconazole significantly reduced M1 formation compared to the control. The P450 1A2 inhibitor furafylline significantly reduced defluorosunitinib (M3) and M5 formation compared to the control but had minimal effect on M1. In CYP3A5-genotyped human liver microsomes from 12 individual donors, M1 formation was highly correlated with P450 3A activity measured by midazolam 1'-hydroxylation, and M3 and M5 formation was correlated with P450 1A2 activity estimated by phenacetin O-deethylation. M3 and M5 formation was also associated with P450 3A5-selective activity. In sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes, the P450 3A inducer rifampicin significantly increased M1 levels. P450 1A induction by omeprazole markedly increased M3 formation and the generation of a quinoneimine-cysteine conjugate (M6) identified as a downstream metabolite of M5. The nonselective P450 inhibitor 1-aminobenzotriazole reduced each of these metabolites (M1, M3, and M6). Collectively, these findings indicate that P450 3A activity is a key determinant of sunitinib N-dealkylation to the active metabolite M1, and P450 1A (and potentially 3A5) activity influences sunitinib bioactivation to the reactive quinoneimine metabolite. Accordingly, modulation of P450 activity due to genetic and/or nongenetic factors may impact the risk of sunitinib-associated toxicities.

Project description: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.

Project description:ObjectiveTo raise awareness of Cytochrome P450 Oxidoreductase Deficiency (PORD, a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), through a case of pregnant woman with virilization symptoms.Case descriptionA 30-year-old Chinese woman was referred to hospital after 7 years of presenting signs of virilization, including voice deepening, acromegaly, hirsutism, clitoromegaly, and acne. These symptoms appeared since her third gestation. Her second birth died 9 hours after birth and had signs of clitoris hypertrophy. Her third born was a son who presented with flat nose, radius and humerus bone malformation, and small penis at birth. Panel of POR-related genetic tests revealed that the patient carried c.1370 G>A (p.R457H), which is a POR heterozygous gene, while her husband carried a POR heterozygous gene as well, c.1379 C>A (p.S460Y). Two heterozygous mutations of the POR were found in her son: c.1370 G>A and c.1379 C>A. In PORD, c.1370 G>A (p.R457H) was reported as a susceptible gene, while c.1379 C>A (p.S460Y) has not been reported as responsible for the disease so far.Discussion and literature reviewPORD is a rare form of CAH and caused by POR gene mutations. Most PORD patients are identified and diagnosed in pediatrics department. Internal medicine and obstetrics physicians are unfamiliar with the disease. As clinical manifestations are diverse, PORD could be easy to miss or to be misdiagnosed. Typical clinical manifestation includes adrenal insufficiency-related symptoms, such as bone malformations and sexual development disorders. PORD is diagnosed through genetic testing. Investigations of steroid metabolic products in urine through gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry are also helpful for the diagnosis, but neither of them are widely available in China. In this case, the patient had a history of infertility, and her third child was born with congenital defect and carried a PORD-related gene. In general clinical practice, if a pregnant woman presents with abnormal virilization symptoms, CAH possibilities should be considered, including rare causes such as PORD.ConclusionPORD is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease. We summarised the clinical characteristics and genotypes that were previously reported in the Chinese population and identified a novel mutation.

Project description:IntroductionCyclophosphamide is commonly used as an important component in conditioning prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, a curative treatment for several hematological diseases. Cyclophosphamide is a prodrug activated mainly by cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6) in the liver. A high degree of inter- and intra-individual variation in cyclophosphamide kinetics has been reported in several studies.Materials and methodsHydroxylation of cyclophosphamide was investigated in vitro using three microsomal batches of CYP2B6*1 with different ratios of POR/CYP expression levels. Twenty patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were also included in the study. All patients received an i.v. infusion of cyclophosphamide (60 mg/kg/day, for two days) as a part of their conditioning. Blood samples were collected from each patient before cyclophosphamide infusion, 6 h after the first dose and before and 6 h after the second dose. POR gene expression was measured by mRNA analysis and the pharmacokinetics of cyclophosphamide and its active metabolite were determined.ResultsA strong correlation between the in vitro intrinsic clearance of cyclophosphamide and the POR/CYP ratio was found. The apparent Km for CYP2B6.1 was almost constant (3-4 mM), while the CLint values were proportional to the POR/CYP ratio (3-34 μL/min/nmol CYP). In patients, the average expression of the POR gene in blood was significantly (P <0.001) up-regulated after cyclophosphamide infusion, with high inter-individual variations and significant correlation with the concentration ratio of the active metabolite 4-hydroxy-cyclophosphamide/cyclophosphamide. Nine patients were carriers for POR*28; four patients had relatively high POR expression.ConclusionsThis investigation shows for the first time that POR besides CYP2B6 can influence cyclophosphamide metabolism. Our results indicate that not only CYPs are important, but also POR expression and/or activity may influence cyclophosphamide bioactivation, affecting therapeutic efficacy and treatment related toxicity and hence on clinical outcome. Thus, both POR and CYP genotype and expression levels may have to be taken into account when personalizing treatment schedules to achieve optimal therapeutic drug plasma concentrations of cyclophosphamide.
