Unlike conventionally dose-dependent side effects, they are unpredictable and more frequently manifest as life-threatening conditions, such as severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) and drug-induced liver injury (DILI). Some HLA alleles, such as <i>HLA-B*57:01</i>, <i>HLA-B*15:02</i>, and <i>HLA-B*58:01</i>, are known risk factors for adverse reactions induced by multiple drugs. However, the structural basis underlying most HLA-associated adverse events remains poorly understood. This review summarizes the application of molecular docking to reveal the mechanisms of IDR-related HLA associations, covering studies using this technique to examine drug-HLA binding pockets and identify key binding residues. We provide a comprehensive overview of risk HLA alleles associated with IDRs, followed by a discussion of the utility and limitations of commonly used molecular docking tools in simulating complex molecular interactions within the HLA binding pocket. Through examples, including the binding of abacavir and flucloxacillin to HLA-B*57:01, carbamazepine to HLA-B*15:02, and allopurinol to HLA-B*58:01, we demonstrate how docking analyses can provide insights into the drug and HLA allele-specificity of adverse events. Furthermore, the use of molecular docking to screen drugs with unknown IDR liability is examined, targeting either multiple HLA variants or a single specific variant. Despite multiple challenges, molecular docking presents a promising toolkit for investigating drug-HLA interactions and understanding IDR mechanisms, with significant implications for preemptive HLA typing and safer drug development.</p>","PeriodicalId":11307,"journal":{"name":"Drug Metabolism Reviews","volume":" ","pages":"67-90"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142983068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Genetic variation in pharmacogenes, including drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters, is common and can increase the risk of adverse drug events or contribute to reduced efficacy.
