Abstract excerpt
Sulphamethoxazole undergoes CYP2C9-mediated bioactivation to a hydroxylamine. In this study, we investigated the effect of the CYP2C9Arg144 to Cys (CYP2C9*2) and CYP2C9Ile359 to Leu (CYP2C9*3) polymorphisms on sulphamethoxazole N-hydroxylation. Human livers were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction amplification and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Formation of sulphamethoxazole...
