While no genome-wide pharmacogenetics study has yet been published, the field of pharmacogenetics is moving towards exploratory, large-scale analyses of the interaction between genetic variation and drug treatment. The Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters (DMET) platform offers a standardized set of 1936 variants in 225 genes related to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination that is useful to scan the genome for previously unknown associations between variation in absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination genes and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic outcomes of drug treatment. The purpose of this review is to put the DMET platform into context within the current study designs that have been used in pharmacogenetics, and to explore the role that DMET has played - and will play - in future pharmacogenetics studies.
虽然尚未发表全基因组药物遗传学研究,但药物遗传学领域正朝着探索性、大规模分析遗传变异与药物治疗之间相互作用的方向发展。药物代谢酶和转运体(DMET)平台提供了一套标准化的 1936 个变体,涉及与药物吸收、分布、代谢和消除相关的 225 个基因,这对于扫描基因组中吸收、分布、代谢和消除基因的变异与药物治疗的药代动力学和药效学结果之间以前未知的关联非常有用。本文的目的是将 DMET 平台置于当前药物遗传学研究设计的背景下,并探讨 DMET 在过去和未来药物遗传学研究中所扮演的角色。
