Mini-Review on the Implications of Gene Polymorphism in the Metabolism of Xenobiotics

Abstract: One of the most common medical issues in children and adults is accidental poisonings ranging from medicines to toxic substances such as alcohol and toluene and even metals like iron and lead. The way these substances are metabolised depends on a plethora of factors such as age, sex and even ethnicity. Besides these factors, there is one that holds an even more significant weight on how substances are metabolised -genes, or more precisely, alleles of specific genes. In recent years, genetic studies have signif… Show more

“…Even so, exposome evaluation needs are still not fully covered by available technologies. According to the previous study, the amount of environmental chemicals in biological samples is 3 -4 orders of magnitude lower, on average, than that of endogenous metabolites, drugs, or food constituents [49,65]. Thus, going beyond the metabolome level and moving into the exposome requires use of more sensitive tools or methods.…”
