RESUMEN
Actinobacteria produce about two-thirds of all naturally derived antibiotics currently in clinical use. Kitasatospora aureofaciens Tü117 is a species of Actinobacteria and produces α-lipomycin. We report the complete genome sequence of K. aureofaciens, composed of a single linear chromosome of 8,717,539 Mbp with a G + C content of 72.0%.
RESUMEN
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Lenvatinib inhibits CYP2C8. (S)-Warfarin is metabolized to (S)-7-hydroxywarfarin by CYP2C9 and (S)-4'-hydroxywarfarin by CYP2C8. Here, we report drug interactions between warfarin and lenvatinib in a patient with CYP2C9*1/*3. CASE SUMMARY: The patient was administered warfarin. His international normalized ratio (INR) was 1.92 before lenvatinib administration. On day 8 after beginning 12 mg/day lenvatinib, plasma trough concentrations of lenvatinib and (S)-warfarin were 33.3 ng/mL and 0.67 µg/mL, respectively. On day 10, his INR increased to 3.48. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: Lenvatinib-dependent (S)-warfarin inhibition could involve CYP2C9 and CYP2C8. After initiating warfarin plus lenvatinib, INR assays are necessary.

1. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of tacrolimus concentration in blood 12 h after administration (C12h) on acute renal dysfunction in patients with lupus nephritis (LN) taking tacrolimus once daily. 2. Five of the 35 LN patients experienced tacrolimus-induced acute renal dysfunction. 3. The average annual C12h of tacrolimus was higher for patients with events of elevated serum creatinine level than for patients not experiencing these events [6.4 (5.6-8.8) versus 2.8 (2.2-4.6) ng/mL, respectively, p=0.001]. 4. The average annual tacrolimus C12h was higher for patients with CYP3A5*3/*3 (PM) than for patients with the CYP3A5*1 allele (EM) [4.6 (3.2-6.6) versus 2.5 (2.0-3.1) ng/mL, respectively, p=0.002]. 5. The area under the receiver operating characteristic was 0.887, which gave the best sensitivity (80.0%) and specificity (86.7%) at a tacrolimus C12h (average annual C12h or C12h at events) threshold of 5.2 ng/mL. 6. C12h measurements, CYP3A5 genotyping and dose adjustments of tacrolimus should be performed to prevent acute renal dysfunction in LN patients taking tacrolimus once daily.
