The role of genetic variants in CYP2C8, LPIN1, PPARGC1A and PPARγ on the trough steady-state plasma concentrations of rosiglitazone and on glycosylated haemoglobin A1c in type 2 diabetes

Abstract

We showed that CYP2C8*3 was associated with lower plasma levels of rosiglitazone and hence a reduced therapeutic response but also a lower risk of developing oedema during treatment with rosiglitazone. Individualized treatment with rosiglitazone on the basis of the CYP2C8 genotype may therefore be possible.
