1 Association between Polymorphisms of OCT1 and Metabolic Response to Metformin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
2 Organic cation transporter (OCT) 1 and 2 have been reported to mediate metformin transport in the liver and kidney, respectively. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
3 In this study, we investigated the association between the polymorphisms of OCT1 and OCT2 and the treatment effectiveness of metformin in PCOS patients. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
4 However, PCOS patients with the G allele of OCT1 rs683369 and/or with the A allele of OCT1 rs628031 had increased insulin sensitivity compared to those with wild-type genotype after receiving metformin treatment. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
5 Moreover, the interactions of metformin*SNP were significant in both OCT1 rs683369 (p < 0.001) and rs628031 (p = 0.001) during the treatment period. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
6 Taken together, genetic polymorphisms of OCT1 contributed to different metformin treatment responses, and further study is needed to establish personalized treatment programs using a pharmacogenomic algorithm approach in PCOS patients. Metformin solute carrier family 22 member 1 Homo sapiens
