Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolizes approximately one-third of the medicines in current clinical use and exhibits genetic polymorphism with interindividual differences in metabolic activity. To precisely investigate the effect of CYP2D6*10B and CYP2D6*36 frequently found in Oriental populations on mexiletine metabolism in vitro, CYP2D6 proteins of wild-type (CYP2D6.1) and variants (CYP2D6.10 and CYP2D6.36)...
