Pharmacogenomics J . 2019 Feb; 19(6):556-563. PMID: 30723313
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD) is a highly polymorphic gene and classic deficient variants (i.e., c.1236G>A/HapB3, c.1679T>G, c.1905+1G>A and c.2846A>T) are characterized by impaired enzyme activity and risk of severe adverse drug...

Lai M, Pifferi M, Bush A, Piras M, Michelucci A, Di Cicco M, et al.
J Med Genet . 2016 Jan; 53(4):242-9. PMID: 26729821
Background: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterised by dysfunction of motile cilia. Ciliary dysmotility causes poor mucociliary clearance and leads to impairment of pulmonary...

Del Re M, Quaquarini E, Sottotetti F, Michelucci A, Palumbo R, Simi P, et al.
Pharmacogenomics . 2015 Dec; 17(1):5-9. PMID: 26651493
DPD is the rate-limiting enzyme involved in the metabolism of 5-fluorouracil and its prodrugs, capecitabine and tegafur. Many cases of severe toxicities by fluoropyrimidines are reported in the literature, sometimes...

Bertini V, Cambi F, Bruno R, Toschi B, Forli F, Berrettini S, et al.
J Hum Genet . 2015 Sep; 60(12):777-80. PMID: 26354035
Here, we report on a patient with a 625 kb duplication in Xp22.12, detected by array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). The duplicated region contains only one gene, RPS6KA3, that results...

Del Re M, Michelucci A, Di Leo A, Cantore M, Bordonaro R, Simi P, et al.
EPMA J . 2015 Sep; 6(1):17. PMID: 26330892
Background: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme of the metabolic pathway of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and other fluoropyrimidines to inactive compounds. For this reason, severe, life-threatening toxicities may...
