Tacrolimus pharmacokinetic characteristics vary greatly among individuals. Tacrolimus is a substrate of cytochrome p450 (CYP), of subfamily CYP3A. CYP3A activity is the sum of the activities of the family of CYP3A genes, including CYP3A5. Subjects with the CYP3A5*1/1 genotype express large amounts of CYP3A5. Heterozygotes (genotype CYP3A51/*3) also express the enzyme. We postulated that CYP3A5 polymorphism is associated with tacrolimus pharmacokinetic variations.
CYP3A5 genotype was evaluated in 80 renal transplant recipients and correlated with the daily tacrolimus dose and concentration-to-dose ratio.
The frequency of the homozygous CYP3A51 genotype (CYP3A51/1) was 5%, and 11% of subjects were heterozygous (CYP3A51/3). The mean doses required to obtain the targeted concentration-to-dose ratio were significantly lower in patients with the CYP3A51/*1 genotype.
Determination of CYP3A5 genotype is predictive of the dose of tacrolimus in renal transplant recipients and may help to determine the initial daily dose needed by individual patients for adequate immunosuppression without excess nephrotoxicity.
他克莫司的药代动力学特征在个体间差异很大。他克莫司是细胞色素P450(CYP)亚家族CYP3A的底物。CYP3A活性是包括CYP3A5在内的CYP3A基因家族活性的总和。具有CYP3A5*1/1基因型的受试者表达大量的CYP3A5。杂合子(基因型CYP3A51/*3)也表达该酶。我们推测CYP3A5基因多态性与他克莫司的药代动力学变异有关。
对80例肾移植受者的CYP3A5基因型进行评估,并将其与他克莫司每日剂量及浓度-剂量比值相关联。
纯合CYP3A51基因型(CYP3A51/1)的频率为5%,11%的受试者为杂合子(CYP3A51/3)。具有CYP3A51/*1基因型的患者获得目标浓度-剂量比值所需的平均剂量显著更低。
CYP3A5基因型的测定可预测肾移植受者他克莫司的剂量,并可能有助于确定个体患者为实现充分免疫抑制且无过多肾毒性所需的初始每日剂量。
