ABSTRACT
Aims:
This study aimed to investigate the impact of genetic polymorphisms of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) and NUDT15 on pharmacokinetics profile of mercaptopurine in healthy adults in China.Methods:
Blood samples were obtained from 45 healthy adult volunteers who were administered azathioprine. Genomic DNA was extracted and sequenced for TPMT and NUDT15. The plasma concentrations of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) were determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Finally, pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated based on the time-concentration curve.Results:
Among the 45 healthy adult volunteers enrolled in the study, two TPMT allelic variants and three NUDT15 allelic variants were detected. In total, six genotypes were identified, including TPMT*1/*1&NUDT15*1/*1, TPMT*1/*1&NUDT15*1/*2, TPMT*1/*1&NUDT15*1/*9, TPMT*1/*1&NUDT15*2/*5, TPMT*1/*6&NUDT15*1/*2, and TPMT*1/*3&NUDT15*1/*2. The results indicated that Area Under Curve (AUC) of 6-MP in volunteers with TPMT*1/*3&NUDT15*1/*2 and TPMT*1/*6&NUDT15*1/*2 were 1.57-1.62-fold higher than in individuals carrying the wild type (TPMT*1/*1&NUDT15*1/*1). Compared with wild type, the half-life (T1/2) of TPMT*1/*6&NUDT15*1/*2 was extended by 1.98 times, whereas T1/2 of TPMT*1/*3&NUDT15*1/*2 decreased by 67%. The maximum concentration (Cmax) of TPMT*1/*3&NUDT15*1/*2 increased significantly by 2.15-fold, whereas the corresponding clearance (CL/F) decreased significantly by 58.75%.Conclusion:
The findings of this study corroborate the notion that various genotypes of TPMT and NUDT15 can impact the pharmacokinetics of mercaptopurine, potentially offering foundational insights for personalized mercaptopurine therapy.Palavras-chave
