Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6) is a potentially important enzyme for the metabolism of clinical drugs, and it exhibits genetic polymorphism. Thus far, 29 allelic variants of CYP2B6 (CYP2B6*1-CYP2B6*29) have been identified. This study aimed to investigate whether 26 of the variant alleles of CYP2B6 (CYP2B6*2-CYP2B6*21 and CYP2B6*23-CYP2B6*28) affect its kinetics in the metabolism of...
