Influence of CYP2D6 deletion, multiplication, -1584C-->G, 31G-->A and 2988G-->a gene polymorphisms on dextromethorphan metabolism among Mexican tepehuanos and mestizos.
The aim of this study was to explain the variability of CYP2D6 activity by the identification of CYP2D6 deletion and multiplications, and the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -1584C-->G, 31G-->A and 2988G-->A in Mexican Mestizo and Tepehuano subjects. One hundred twelve Mestizos and 99 Tepehuano Amerindians were studied, who were previously phenotyped with dextromethorphan. The frequencies of CYP2D6*2A [-1584C-->G] and *35 [-1584C-->G, 31G-->A] were 10.7 and 4.1%, respectively, in Mestizos, which is evidently a trend towards an extensive metabolism in carriers of the -1584G change. In Tepehuanos, *2A was identified with a frequency of 20%, and the allele *35 was not found. The frequencies of CYP2D6*5 (deletion) and *41[2988G-->A] were 1.3 and 2.2% in Mestizos and 0.5 and 1% in Tepehuanos, respectively. The SNP 2988A was found to be significantly related with the intermediate metabolizer phenotype in Mestizos (R = 0.309; n = 88; p = 0.006). The multiplications had frequencies of 4.1% in Mestizos and 1.5% in Tepehuanos. Only in the Mestizos did the presence of multiplications significantly decrease the DM/DX (dextromethorphan/dextrorphan) values (R = 0.273; n = 88; p = 0.016). The polymorphisms studied had different frequencies between Tepehuanos and Mestizos (p < 0.001); however, in the Tepehuano group these had a low influence on their phenotypic expression. It helps to understand the genotype-phenotype relationships of CYP2D6 in our studied populations.
