- We previously developed a three-dimensional microarray system, the Bio-Strand, which exhibits advantages in automated DNA analysis in combination with our Magtration Technology. In the current study, we have developed a compact system for the Bio-Strand, the Handy Bio-Strand, which consists of several tools for the preparation of Bio-Strand Tip, hybridization, and detection. Using the Handy Bio-Strand, we performed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping of OPRM1 (A118G) by allele-specific oligonucleotide competitive hybridization (ASOCH). DNA fragments containing SNP sites were amplified from genomic DNA by PCR and then were fixed on a microporous nylon thread. Thus, prepared Bio-Strand Tip was hybridized with allele-specific Cy5 probes (<15mer), on which the SNP site was designed to be located in the center. By optimizing the amount of competitors, the selectivity of Cy5 probes increased without a drastic signal decrease. OPRM1 (A118G) genotypes of 23 human genomes prepared from whole blood samples were determined by ASOCH using the Handy Bio-Strand. The results were perfectly consistent with those determined by PCR direct sequencing. ASOCH using the Handy Bio-Strand would be a very simple and reliable method for SNP genotyping for small laboratories and hospitals.

- Aim: To clarify whether the activities of multiple CYPs associated with warfarin metabolism would be correlated with each other. Methods: Oral clearances (CLpo) of warfarin enantiomers were estimated in 378 Chinese, Caucasians and African-Americans. The partial metabolic clearances (CLm) for 7-hydroxywarfarin enantiomers were also measured. In addition, CLpo and CLm were determined in a patient on warfarin and rifampicin. Results: Correlations between CLpo for warfarin enantiomers existed across the three populations. In addition, there was a significant correlation between the CLm for 7-hydroxylation of warfarin enantiomers. Under induced conditions by rifampicin, there were significant correlations between the enantio-and regio-selective metabolisms of warfarin. Conclusion: Metabolic activities of CYP2C9, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 may be regulated by common transcriptional mechanism(s).
