Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Nicotine metabolism rates differ considerably among individuals, even after controlling for variation in the major nicotine-metabolizing enzyme, CYP2A6. In this study, the impact of genetic variation in alternative metabolic enzymes and transporters on nicotine and cotinine (COT) pharmacokinetics and smoking was investigated. METHODS: We examined the impact of UGT2B10, UGT2B17, FMO3, NAT1, and OCT2...
