To identify genetic markers capable of predicting the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and adverse effects of risperidone.
Methods
Genotyping was performed in 70 healthy volunteers receiving a single 1 mg oral dose of risperidone. Risperidone and hydroxyrisperidone plasma levels were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography combined with tandem mass spectrometry. Prolactin concentration was quantified by direct chemiluminescence.
Results
Poor CYP2D6 metabolizers showed higher risperidone Cmax, area under the curve (AUC), and t1/2, as well as lower clearance. They also showed lower Cmax and AUC and higher t1/2 for hydroxyrisperidone. Furthermore, individuals with a mutant VKORC1 genotype had a lower risperidone AUC and t1/2 and higher clearance. The hydroxyrisperidone AUC was lower in individuals with the COMT mutant genotype. Risperidone increased prolactin levels (iAUC and iCmax), which were higher in women than in men. The most frequent reactions were somnolence (47.1%), headache (21.4%), and dizziness (17.1%). Women had neurological effects and headache more frequently than men. The incidence of headache was associated with polymorphisms in the AGTR1 and NAT2; neurological effects were associated with CYP2C19.
期刊介绍:
Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental provides a forum for the evaluation of clinical and experimental research on both new and established psychotropic medicines. Experimental studies of other centrally active drugs, including herbal products, in clinical, social and psychological contexts, as well as clinical/scientific papers on drugs of abuse and drug dependency will also be considered. While the primary purpose of the Journal is to publish the results of clinical research, the results of animal studies relevant to human psychopharmacology are welcome. The following topics are of special interest to the editors and readers of the Journal:
-All aspects of clinical psychopharmacology-
Efficacy and safety studies of novel and standard psychotropic drugs-
Studies of the adverse effects of psychotropic drugs-
Effects of psychotropic drugs on normal physiological processes-
Geriatric and paediatric psychopharmacology-
Ethical and psychosocial aspects of drug use and misuse-
Psychopharmacological aspects of sleep and chronobiology-
Neuroimaging and psychoactive drugs-
Phytopharmacology and psychoactive substances-
Drug treatment of neurological disorders-
Mechanisms of action of psychotropic drugs-
Ethnopsychopharmacology-
Pharmacogenetic aspects of mental illness and drug response-
