Codeine toxicity via breast Milk: Can this occur and implications for opiate therapy in children
Codeine is commonly used in combination analgesic products. The use of codeine during breastfeeding can rarely be associated with serious adverse effects related to genetic polymorphisms affecting codeine's metabolism and disposition. Clinicians treating infants of breastfeeding mothers should be aware of this rare but potentially serious complication.

Risperidone is a commonly used antipsychotic for treating psychiatric illness in children and adolescents. There is a large variability in risperidone response and discontinuation rates remain high. Pharmacogenomics offers the opportunity to improve risperidone outcomes, yet studies in pediatric populations are limited.

Regulation of Sulfotransferase and UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase Gene Expression by the PPARs
During phase II metabolism, a substrate is rendered more hydrophilic through the covalent attachment of an endogenous molecule. The cytosolic sulfotransferase (SULT) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) families of enzymes account for the majority of ...

17β-Estradiol up-regulates UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A9 expression via estrogen receptor α
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A9 (UGT1A9) is a major phase II enzyme responsible for elimination of drugs and endogenous molecules. Clinical data have shown increased elimination of UGT1A9 substrates in pregnant women or oral contraceptive users, but the ...

Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.

Personalized dosing is particularly important for drugs with narrow therapeutic indices in geriatric patients, who exhibit substantial physiological variability and limited pharmacokinetic (PK) evidence to guide individualized dose selection. Valproic acid (VPA) is an effective treatment option for bipolar disorder in older adults, yet dosing largely ...
