CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 Genetic Variation, and Tobacco Use Behaviours and Biomarkers in Alaska NativesBinnington, Matthew John 01 December 2011 (has links)
The impact of CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 genetic variation on nicotine metabolism, tobacco use behaviours, and nicotine biomarkers was investigated in a group of Alaska Natives (n = 400). CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 allele frequencies were unique and associations of CYP2A6 genotype and CYP2A6 activity (plasma and urine trans 3’-hydroxycotinine/cotinine (3HC/COT) ratios) were robust. Notably, this population possessed a more rapid rate of CYP2A6 activity (higher plasma 3HC/COT) when compared to CYP2A6 wild-type individuals in other ethnic groups (ANOVA P < 0.001). Also demonstrated was a significant difference in urine total nicotine equivalents by CYP2A6 activity median split (t-test P < 0.01), the first evidence of nicotine titration by CYP2A6 activity within a light smoking population. Overall, this population possessed a distinctive pattern of CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 variant frequencies and a faster rate of nicotine metabolism, which may in part explain higher levels of tobacco use prevalence and tobacco-related disease risk.
