Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are involved in the metabolism of approximately 75% of marketed drugs. Inhibition of the major drug-metabolizing P450s could alter drug metabolism and lead to undesirable drug-drug interactions. Therefore, it is of great...

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a family of enzymes that are responsible for about 75% of all metabolic reactions. Among them, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 participate in the metabolism of most drugs and mediate many adverse drug reactions. T...
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) is a highly polymorphic gene whose protein product metabolizes more than 20% of clinically used drugs. Genetic variations in CYP2D6 are responsible for interindividual heterogeneity in drug response that can lead to drug ...

The Pharmacogene Variation Consortium (PharmVar) provides nomenclature for the highly polymorphic human CYP2D6 gene locus. CYP2D6 genetic variation impacts the metabolism of numerous drugs and, thus, can impact drug efficacy and safety. This GeneFocu...
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is the most common cause of acute liver failure and often responsible for drug withdrawals from the market. Clinical manifestations vary, and toxicity may or may not appear dose-dependent. We present several machine-l...
