Pharmacogenetics: Improvement of Existing Drug Treatments Zhou Yan-Qiong
Background: • Clinical genetics • Cytogenetic • Somatic Cell Genetics • Biochmical genetics • Molecular genetics • Cancer genetics • Population genetics • Immunogenetics • Pharmacogenetics • Genetic toxicology • Developmental genetics • Behavior genetics
PHARMACOGENETICS The study of genetically controlled variations in drug response
I. Key Concepts and Terms Monogenic: due to allelic variation at a single gene Polygenic: due to variations at two or more genes Polymorphic: frequently occurring monogenic variants occurring at a frequency >1%
Normal Distribution Frequency Activity
GENETIC POLYMORPHISMS Pharmacokinetic Pharmacodynamic • Receptors • Ion channels • Enzymes • Immune molecules • Transporters • Plasma protein binding • Metabolism
II. Genetic polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes From: Evans WE, Relling MV. Pharmacogenomics: Translating functional genomics into rational therapeutics. Science 286:487-491, 1999.
Genetic polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes • 1. Polymorph of debrisoquine • extensive metabolizer——EM • poor metabolizer ——PM*>12.6 • recessive transmission,autosomal
DRUGS WHOSE METABOLISM CO-SEGREGATES WITH DEBRISOQUINE alprenolol amitriptyline bufuralol clomipramine codeine desipramine encainide ethylmorphine flecainide fluoxetine guanoxan imipramine metoprolol nortriptyline paroxetine phenformin propafenone propranolol
2. Polymorph of Mephenetoin: • EM • PM:recessive transmission,autosomal • racial diversify
