Abstract: AIM: To identify the frequencies and distributive characteristics of CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 in Chinese type 2 diabete mellitus. METHODS: The functional allele CYP2C83, CYP2C8P404A,CYP2C9 3 were detected by PCR-RFLP and DHPLC methods in 222 T2DM patients.The CYP2C8IVS 2 (-5insert t)whose function remains unclear was also detected.The frequency of all these alleles were calculated. RESULTS: The alleles of CYP2C83 and P404A were not found in 222 T2DM patients.The allelic frequency of CYP2C8IVS2 (-5insert t)and CYP2C93 were 43 % and 2.48 %, respectively.There was no significant difference between the male and female on CYP2C8 IVS2 (-5insert t)and CYP2C93 alleles. The allelic frequency of CYP2C8IVS2 (-5insert t) combined with CYP2C913 was 6.3 %.There was no significant difference between the male and female on it, too. CONCLUSION: The frequency of CYP2C93 was 2.48 % in Chinese T2DM patients. The alleles of CYP2C83 and P404 were not found. The incidence of CYP2C8IVS2 (-5insert t)mutant was 43.0 %, and whether it has influences on CYP2C8 metabolism activity needs further study.
