Omeprazole-induced acute interstitial nephritis is not related to CYP2C19 genotype or CYP2C19 phenotype

Omeprazole Induced Acute Interstitial Nephritis in an Adolescent

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have emerged as a common cause of drug induced acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) in adults. We present a 15-year-old girl with severe acute kidney injury and biopsy proven AIN attributable to omeprazole. Withdrawal of the drug and steroid therapy affected a recovery of renal function. As the use of PPIs increases in paediatrics, it is important to be aware of this...

Phenotype-genotype analysis of CYP2C19 in Colombian mestizo individuals

BACKGROUND Omeprazole is metabolized by the hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 enzyme to 5-hydroxyomeprazole. CYP2C19 exhibits genetic polymorphisms responsible for the presence of poor metabolizers (PMs), intermediate metabolizers (IMs) and extensive metabolizers (EMs). The defective mutations of the enzyme and their frequencies change between different ethnic groups; however, the polymorphism...

Effects of clarithromycin on the metabolism of omeprazole in relation to CYP2C19 genotype status in humans.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A triple therapy with omeprazole, amoxicillin (INN, amoxicilline), and clarithromycin is widely used for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. Omeprazole and clarithromycin are metabolized by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4. This study aimed to elucidate whether clarithromycin affects the metabolism of omeprazole. METHODS After administration of placebo or 400 mg clarithromycin tw...

The CYP2C19 Intron 2 Branch Point SNP is the Ancestral Polymorphism Contributing to the Poor Metabolizer Phenotype in Livers with CYP2C19*35 and CYP2C19*2 Alleles.

CYP2C19 rs12769205 alters an intron 2 branch point adenine leading to an alternative mRNA in human liver with complete inclusion of intron 2 (exon 2B). rs12769205 changes the mRNA reading frame, introduces 87 amino acids, and leads to a premature stop codon. The 1000 Genomes project (http://browser.1000genomes.org/index.html) indicated rs12769205 is in linkage disequilibrium with rs4244285 on C...
