Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a metabolic disease caused by a deficiency of hydroxymethylbilanesynthase (HMBS), one of the eight enzymes involved in the haem biosynthesis pathway. In Argentina, themost predominant pathogenic variant is NG_008093.1:g.9871G>A (rs118204107). There are manyfactors that lead to the manifestation of AIP such as: drugs, endocrine factors, fasting or stress. Geneticsusceptibility factors underlying penetrance are still unknown. Drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450isoform; CYP2C9 is a polymorphic haem-dependent enzyme which plays a role in haem demand andmight modulate the occurrence of AIP attacks. The aim of this study was to assess the levels ofbiochemical markers in 63 Argentinean AIP patients who carried different variants of CYP2C9. It wasobserved that, in AIP men; the triggering factor was drugs consumption. In contrast, in AIP women themanifestation was due to various reasons, mainly contraceptives intake (OCs). AIP men carryingCYP2C9*1/*2 had higher levels of haem precursors compared with CYP2C9*1/*1 carriers. Worldwide,this study has demonstrated, for the first time, that AIP men carriers CYPC9*1/*2 could have a highpossibility to trigger the disease due to porphyrinogenic drugs consumption, highlighting the importanceof personalized medical advice in the field of porphyria, to advise them about the danger of theconsumption of porphyrinogenic agents that could lead to a fatal outcome.
