Human pregnane X receptor (hPXR) gene polymorphisms (spanning exon 2 to exon 5) and alternative mRNA splicing were investigated as possible contributors to individual variability in CYP3A metabolic activity measured both in vivo and in vitro. None of the 9 variants evaluated, including the 2 most common nonsynonymous variants (Pro27Ser and Gly36Arg), was found to be associated with midazolam 1'-hydroxylation rate measured in a bank of human livers (48 European Americans, 4 African Americans, 2 Hispanics). In contrast, 3 linked hPXR variants (g.252A > G, g.275A > G, and g.4760G > A) were significantly (P < .05) associated with oral midazolam clearance in a mixed race/ethnicity population (n = 26) and the African American subpopulation (n = 14) but not in European Americans (n = 9). Although the amount of hPXR mRNA normally spliced at the exon 4-5 junction correlated well with midazolam 1'-hydroxylation activities (P < .05), none of the 6 hPXR mRNA splice variants identified was associated with midazolam 1'-hydroxylation, In conclusion, several hPXR polymorphisms have been identified that may have predictive value for oral midazolam clearance, particularly in African Americans.
