Polymorphisms and haplotypes of the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 gene promoter.
Identification of functional polymorphisms in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 (UGT2B7) gene predicting interpatient variability in the glucuronidation of drugs that are primarily metabolized by UGT2B7 has been the subject of many studies. These studies have shown linkage disequilibrium (LD) covering the region from -2 kb to 16 kb of the UGT2B7 gene. We identified three novel single-nucleoti...
متن کاملPolymorphisms of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene and irinotecan toxicity: a pharmacogenetic analysis.
Irinotecan unexpectedly causes severe toxicity of leukopenia or diarrhea. Irinotecan is metabolized to form active SN-38, which is further conjugated and detoxified by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 enzyme. Genetic polymorphisms of the UGT1A1 would affect an interindividual variation of the toxicity by irinotecan via the alternation of bioavailability of SN-38. In this case-control study...
متن کاملFunctional characterization of low-prevalence missense polymorphisms in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A9 gene.
The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A9 has been shown to play an important role in the detoxification of several carcinogens and clearance of anticancer and pain medications. The goal of the present study was to identify novel polymorphisms in UGT1A9 and characterize their effect on glucuronidation activity. The UGT1A9 gene was analyzed by direct sequencing of buccal cell genomic DNA from 90...
متن کاملUDP-Glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 gene polymorphisms and total bilirubin levels in an ethnically diverse cohort of women.
The objective of this study was to investigate variations in UGT1A1 polymorphisms and haplotypes among African-American and Caucasian women and to assess whether variants other than UGT1A1*28 are associated with total serum bilirubin levels. The (TA)(n) repeats and 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the UGT1A1 gene were genotyped in 335 African Americans and 181 Caucasians. Total seru...
متن کاملPolymorphisms of the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A7 gene in colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms in the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase-1A7 (UGT1A7) gene are detected and significantly correlated with sporadic colorectal carcinoma. UGT1A7, which has recently been demonstrated to glucuronidate environmental carcinogens, is now implicated as a cancer risk gene. A silent mutation at codon 11 and missense mutations at codons 129, 131, and 208 lead to the desc...
