Distribution of a novel CYP2C haplotype in Native American populations

The CYP2C19 gene, located in the CYP2C cluster, encodes the major drug metabolism enzyme CYP2C19. This gene is highly polymorphic and no-function (CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3), reduced function (CYP2C19*9) and increased function (CYP2C19*17) star alleles (haplotypes) are commonly used to predict CYP2C19...

Sumario:The CYP2C19 gene, located in the CYP2C cluster, encodes the major drug metabolism enzyme CYP2C19. This gene is highly polymorphic and no-function (CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3), reduced function (CYP2C19*9) and increased function (CYP2C19*17) star alleles (haplotypes) are commonly used to predict CYP2C19 metabolic phenotypes. CYP2C19*17 and the genotype-predicted rapid (RM) and ultrarapid (UM) CYP2C19 metabolic phenotypes are absent or rare in several Native American populations. However, discordance between genotype-predicted and pharmacokinetically determined CYP2C19 phenotypes in Native American cohorts have been reported. Recently, a haplotype defined by rs2860840T and rs11188059G alleles in the CYP2C cluster has been shown to encode increased rate of metabolism of the CYP2C19 substrate escitalopram, to a similar extent as CYP2C19*17. We investigated the distribution of the CYP2C:TG haplotype and explored its potential impact on CYP2C19 metabolic activity in Native American populations. The study cohorts included individuals from the One Thousand Genomes Project AMR superpopulation (1 KG_AMR), the Human Genome Diversity Project (HGDP), and from indigenous populations living in Brazil (Kaingang and Guarani). The frequency range of the CYP2C:TG haplotype in the study cohorts, 0.469 to 0.598, is considerably higher than in all 1 KG superpopulations (range: 0.014—to 0.340). We suggest that the high frequency of the CYP2C:TG haplotype might contribute to the reported discordance between CYP2C19-predicted and pharmacokinetically verified CYP2C19 metabolic phenotypes in Native American cohorts. However, functional studies involving genotypic correlations with pharmacokinetic parameters are warranted to ascertain the importance of the CYP2C:TG haplotype.
