Role of the SLCO1B1 haplotypes on the rifampicin-induced CYP3A activity

Rifampin, a member of the rifamycin class of antibiotics, is well known for its ability to activate the pregnant X receptor and induce drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Available data suggest rifampin entry into hepatocytes is mediated by OATP1B1. Accordingly, it is therefore plausible that modulation of the intracellular concentration of rifampin by OATP1B1 genetic polymorphisms would influence the degree of CYP3A induction. AIM： To study the association between haplotypes of the SLCO1B1 and the rifampicin-mediated inducible CYP3A4 activity. A single-point determination of midazolam plasma concentration method was developed to assess the constitutive and inducible CYP3A4 activity. A pharmacokinetic study of a single dose of 450 mg rifampicin was conducted to evaluate the mechanism of rifampicin-midazolam interaction in different SLCO1B1 genotypic subjects.METHODS： Twenty-three healthy volunteers with different SLCO1B1 haplotypes （7 for SLCO1B1 ＊ 1a/＊ 1a, 7 for SLCO1B1 ＊ 1b/＊ 1b, 7 for SLCO1B1 ＊ 1b / ＊ 15 and 2 for SLCO1B1 ＊ 15/＊ 15） were enrolled in this study. Each was given a single oral dose of 7.5 nag naidazolam on day 0 and day 6. Rifampicin of 450 nag was given from day 1 to day 5. Plasma concentrations of midazolam were measured for up to 8 hours by LC-MS, and its pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed. Plasma concentrations of a single oral dose of 450 nag rifampicin were measured for up to 12 hours.[第一段]
