Human CYP2B6 produces oxylipins from polyunsaturated fatty acids and reduces diet-induced obesity
Multiple factors in addition to over consumption lead to obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the United States and worldwide. CYP2B6 is the only human detoxification CYP whose loss is associated with obesity, and Cyp2b-null mice show

Personalized prescribing: a new medical model for clinical implementation of psychotropic drugs. [PDF]
The use of pharmacogenetic tests was already being proposed in psychiatry in the early 2000s because genetic factors were known to influence drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
