- The function of the efflux pump P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and ABCB1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) should be considered as important tools to deepen knowledge of drug nephrotoxicity and disposition mechanisms. The aim of this study is to investigate the association of C3435T, G2677T, C1236T, and T129C ABCB1 SNPs with Pgp activity and exposure to different immunosuppressive drugs in renal transplant patients. Patients included in the Symphony Pharmacogenomic substudy were genotyped for ABCB1 SNPs. According to the design, patients were randomized into four immunosuppressive regimens: low and standard dose of cyclosporine (n = 30), tacrolimus (n = 13), and sirolimus (n = 23) concomitantly with mycophenolate and steroids. Pgp activity was evaluated in PBMC using the Rhodamine 123 efflux assay. TT carrier patients on C3435T, G2677T, and C1236T SNPs (Pgp-low pumpers) showed lower Pgp activity than noncarriers. Pgp-high pumpers treated with cyclosporine showed lower values of Pgp function than macrolides. There was a negative correlation between cyclosporine AUC and Pgp activity at 3 months. Results did not show any correlation between tacrolimus and sirolimus AUC and Pgp activity at 3 months. We found an important role of the ABCB1 SNPs Pgp function in CD3+ peripheral blood lymphocytes from renal transplant recipients. Pgp activity was influenced by cyclosporine but not macrolides exposure.

- Background. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MRP2 genes and mycophenolic acid (MPA) pharmacokinetics in renal transplant recipients of the Symphony Pharmacogenomic substudy. Methods. Sixty-six renal transplant recipients of eight Spanish centres were randomized into four branches of immunosuppressive regimen: low dose of cyclosporine, standard dose of cyclosporine, tacrolimus and sirolimus, all in addition to mycophenolate mofetil and steroids. Fifty-five patients were genotyped for SNPs in MRP2, C24T and C3972T. Pharmacokinetic sampling was done before MPA administration and up to 12 h post-dose at Day 7, 1 month and 3 months post-transplant. Relationships of area under the curve (AUC) of MPA and MPAG plasmasampling with the presence of MRP2 SNPs and with the immunosuppressive regimens were studied. Results. At steady-state conditions, MPA-reduced exposure was observed in C24T variant allele in MRP2 (CC: 68.73 +/- 6.78; *T: 48.12 +/- 4.90, P = 0.023); no significant differences linked to C3972T SNP were observed. Taking into account groups of treatment, lower MPA AUC in variant allele of C24T was only found under macrolides treatment with statistically significant differences at Month 3 (Tac and SRL, CC: 86.52 +/- 10.98 versus *T: 41.99 +/- 4.82, P = 0.001; CsA, CC: 52.31 +/- 5.30 versus *T: 54.24 +/- 8.30, P = 0.772); for C3972T, the same tendency was found but differences at steady state did not reach statistical significance. Conclusions. Renal transplant recipients T carriers of C24T MRP2 with macrolides treatment were associated with reduced MPA AUC in steady-state conditions. Patients treated
