Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To determine the molecular basis of the intermediate extensive metaboliser (EM) CYP2D6 phenotype in healthy Gabonese subjects. METHODS: The CYP2D6 phenotype of 154 healthy Gabonese subjects was assessed by giving the subject a single dose of 30 mg dextromethorphan, and collecting their urine for the next 8 h. The CYP2D6 genotype was determined for 50 individuals of the EM phenotypic group by Southern...
