Importance <strong>and</strong> General Principles<br />
of <strong>Drug</strong> Metabolism<br />
<strong>Drug</strong> Therapy: The challenges<br />
1. Non-responders<br />
Only 30-60 % of p<strong>at</strong>ients respond to the<br />
common drugs.<br />
2. Serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs):<br />
5-7 % of all hospital admissions<br />
2 days prolonged hospital visit<br />
$2,500 per p<strong>at</strong>ient, $100 billion in USA per year<br />
100,000 de<strong>at</strong>hs annually in US<br />

<strong>Drug</strong> Metabolism in Clinical<br />
Practice<br />
• Goals<br />
– Underst<strong>and</strong> factors th<strong>at</strong><br />
affect metabolism of a<br />
drug<br />
– Predict metabolism of<br />
the drug in an individual<br />
– Design r<strong>at</strong>ional therapy<br />
regimen th<strong>at</strong> is safe <strong>and</strong><br />
effective.<br />
• Need to know<br />
– Which enzymes<br />
(isoforms) metabolize<br />
the drug<br />
– How each enzyme is<br />
affected by genetic<br />
<strong>and</strong> environmental<br />
factors (including other<br />
drugs)<br />
– The rel<strong>at</strong>ive<br />
therapeutic efficacies<br />
<strong>and</strong> toxicities of drug<br />
<strong>and</strong> metabolites<br />
Reasons for termin<strong>at</strong>ion of drug c<strong>and</strong>id<strong>at</strong>es in<br />
development in 2000<br />
Attrition due to PK/bioavailability decreased from 40% to 8% between 1991 <strong>and</strong><br />
2000 in large measure due to incorpor<strong>at</strong>ion of these concepts in early drug<br />
discovery. Guengerich, F.P. (2007). Chem Res.<br />
Toxicol. 20:344-369.

Role of the liver in drug<br />
metabolism<br />
• The liver is the most important organ in the<br />
biotransform<strong>at</strong>ion of most xenobiotics (foreign<br />
compounds).<br />
– All compounds absorbed from the g.i. tract reach<br />
the liver via the portal vein before they reach<br />
other organs.<br />
– The liver is the largest organ in the body <strong>and</strong><br />
contains the highest content of xenobioticmetabolizing<br />
enzymes.<br />

• Gastrointestinal tract<br />
• Kidney<br />
• Respir<strong>at</strong>ory tissues<br />

Why are clinically significant drug<br />
interactions rel<strong>at</strong>ively uncommon?<br />
•The interaction, while st<strong>at</strong>istically significant, is<br />
too small to produce a clinically important<br />
change in the dynamics of the drug.<br />
•The therapeutic index of the victim drug is<br />
large enough th<strong>at</strong> even a substantial change in<br />
plasma levels does not alter therapeutics or<br />
toxicity.<br />
•Kinetics <strong>and</strong> response to the victim drug are so<br />
variable th<strong>at</strong> they overshadow changes in<br />

Carriers of a reduced-function CYP2C19 allele had lower levels of active metabolite form<strong>at</strong>ion,<br />
diminished pl<strong>at</strong>elet inhibition, <strong>and</strong> higher risk of major adverse cardiovascular effects.<br />
Role of Genetics in Codeine Metabolism<br />
1. Codeine to norcodeine <strong>and</strong><br />
codeine 6G accounts for 80%<br />
of the metabolism<br />
2. Conversion of codeine to<br />
morphine by CYP2D6 accounts<br />
for 10% of the metabolism<br />
3. Fast CYP2D6 metabolizers will<br />
accumul<strong>at</strong>e excess morphine<br />
4. Morphine <strong>and</strong> morphine 6G<br />
have opioid activity<br />

Properties of Phase II Enzymes<br />
• C<strong>at</strong>alyze biosynthetic reactions<br />
• Utilize a high-energy co-factor<br />
• Generally react with nucleophilic groups (OH<br />
<strong>and</strong> NH2 most common)<br />
• Generally lead to increase in w<strong>at</strong>er solubility<br />
Notable exceptions:<br />
• Glut<strong>at</strong>hione reacts with electrophiles<br />
• Acetyl<strong>at</strong>ion leads to decreased w<strong>at</strong>er solubility<br />

Properties of UGTs<br />
• Normally detoxifying, but can be involved in bioactiv<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
• Glucuronides excreted in bile or urine<br />
– Smaller glucuronides excreted in urine<br />
– Larger glucuronides excreted in bile (undergo enterohep<strong>at</strong>ic<br />
circul<strong>at</strong>ion)<br />
• Genetic defect in UGT1A1 leads to hyperbilirubinemia<br />
diseases<br />
• Glucuronid<strong>at</strong>ion can be impaired when cofactor is<br />
depleted (e.g fasting)<br />

Properties of Glut<strong>at</strong>hione S-Transferases<br />
• Cytosolic GSTs: Homo- <strong>and</strong> heterodimers of <strong>at</strong> least 15 subunits<br />
– Alpha family: hGSTA1-5 (main forms in liver <strong>and</strong> kidney)<br />
– Pi family: hGSTP1a,1b (allelic variants: lung, gut, tumors)<br />
– Mu family: hGSTM1-5 (muscle, brain)<br />
– Theta family: hGSTT1-2<br />
– Single members of sigma <strong>and</strong> zeta families in humans<br />
• Microsomal GST - membrane associ<strong>at</strong>ed proteins in eicosanoid <strong>and</strong><br />
glut<strong>at</strong>hione metabolism (MAPEG) -<br />
• Mitochondrial GST - hGSTK1 (soluble)<br />
• Widespread tissue distribution<br />
• Some GSTs have nonc<strong>at</strong>alytic binding sites for hydrophobic lig<strong>and</strong>s:<br />
involved in intracellular transport<br />
• Differential regul<strong>at</strong>ion of GSTs<br />
– Chemicals<br />
– Sex differences, development<br />
