Frequency of occurrence of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms of CYP2C8 and MDR1 in the Czech population and their influence on the effect of amiodarone Introduction: Variability in drug response is sometimes conditioned by genetic differences in the metabolism and the transport of drugs. Interindividual differences are often caused by polymorphisms affecting biotransformation activity of enzymes and expression of transporters. In the thesis we paid attention to the cytochrome P450 CYP2C8 and MDR1. First, we described the frequency of occurrence of selected variant alleles CYP2C8 * 2, CYP2C8 * 3 (2 substitution in exon 3 and 8, CYP2C8 and CYP2C8 * 3G416A * 3A1196G), CYP2C8 * 4, CYP2C8 P404A in the healthy Czech population and MDR1 variant alleles in these exons: 26 C3435T, 21 G2677A/T, 12 C1236T a 17 T-76A. Subsequently, we studied the influence of these polymorphisms on effects of amiodarone in the selected group of patients. Methods: We determined genotypes MDR1 a CYP2C8 by PCR-RFLP by using restriction enzymes and specific primers. We determined the frequency of MDR1 genotypes in 189 healthy volunteers and CYP2C8 in 161 healthy subjects. Further we included into the study 63 patients treated with amiodarone for longer than two months. Their treatment was assessed from medical records and...
