CYP2C9
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (abbreviated CYP2C9), a member of the cytochrome P450 mixed-function oxidase system, is involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics in the body. It is involved in the metabolism of several important groups of drugs including many non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and sulfonylureas.
Genetic polymorphism exists for CYP2C9 expression because the CYP2C9 gene is highly polymorphic. At least 30 CYP2C9 alleles have been identified to date. Among them, CYP2C9*3, with an Ile359Leu mutation, has been most widely studied. In vitro studies show it has significantly impaired catalytic activity to various CYP2C9 substrates relative to the wild type. In vivo investigations show that individuals heterozygous and homozygous for CYP2C9*3 have reduced intrinsic clearance of warfarin, phenytoin, lornoxicam and glipizide and are more at risk of clinical toxicity from these drugs. So, approximately 1–3% of Caucasian populations with homozygous CYP2C9*3 are poor metabolisers with no CYP2C9 function.
