We can finally conclude that in this population the response of individuals to ondansetron seems to be affected by
ABCB1 gene C3435T polymorphism.
Specific
ABCB1 variants and DRD2 genetic polymorphisms (simultaneous occurrence of [greater than or equal to] 2 genetically determined phenotypes) might determine the dosage requirements of methadone.
Results: Among the tested ABC efflux transporters, [beta]-carotene significantly inhibited human P-gp efflux function without altering
ABCB1 mRNA expression.
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an efflux transporter encoded by the
ABCB1 (also known as MDR1) gene that protects the brain against neurotoxicants [66].
Cyclosporine and tacrolimus (CNI) are known to be a substrate of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A5 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which are encoded by CYP3A5 gene and ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (
ABCB1) gene, also known as multidrug-resistant gene 1 (MDR1), respectively (15,16,17,18).
Genotyping analyses of
ABCB1 C3435T ABCG2 C421A and ABCC3 C-211T were conducted using the TaqMan methodology.
Of the 49 human ABC transporters, 15 are implicated in conferring resistance to chemotherapeutic agents in various cancers, and the most intensively characterized members are multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1 or P-glycoprotein,
ABCB1), multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2) [7].

Is a key transporter in the disposition of drugs in the CNS, some polymorphisms of
ABCB1 gene, which encodes P-gp, produce a poor transporter that modifies the distribution of psychoactive drugs in the CNS and other tissues (8) ; (g) CYP2B6 enzyme.
