Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 3A4 is a highly polymorphic enzyme and metabolizes approximately 40%-60% of therapeutic drugs. Its genetic polymorphism may significantly affect the expression and function of CYP3A4 resulting in alterations of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the CYP3A4-mediated drugs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the catalytic activities of 30 CYP3A4 nonsynonymous variants and wild type...
