The impact of genetic variants in the CYP2C8 gene on bladder cancer susceptibility
BackgroundBladder cancer is the most common leading cause of mortality around the world. Previous studies have indicated that genetic factors are significantly associated with bladder cancer progression—for instance, the CYP2C8 gene is involved in ...

CYP2C8 Exists as a Dimer in Natural Membranes [PDF]
CYP2C8 with a modified N-terminal sequence (2C8H) crystallizes as a dimer, but it is not known whether native CYP2C8 exists as a dimer in natural membranes. We have examined the organization of 2C8H and CYP2C8 expressed in bacterial membranes and mammalian endoplasmic reticulum membranes, respectively, by cysteine scanning and cross-linking or ...

Impact of CYP2C8 single nucleotide polymorphisms on in-vitro metabolism of imatinib to N-desmethyl imatinib [PDF]
Imatinib is a first line therapy for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Treatment with imatinib must be continuous and indefinite for most patients to maintain disease control.
