Abstract: 

Background: The ABCB1 gene is responsible for resistance to various cytotoxic drugs. The product of the ABCB1 gene, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), acts as a transmembrane pump and influences the action of many drugs. More than 40 SNPs of the ABCB1 gene that alter the expression of P-gp have been identified. The ABCB1 rs1045642 SNP, designated as C3435T (C-the wild-type allele, T-the variant allele), correlates with the activity of P-gp. The aim of our research was to study the distribution of alleles and genotypes of the ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism in Yakuts, in comparison with other human populations.
Methods and Results: The studied cohort included 149 healthy Yakut volunteers (36 men and 113 women). The average age of participants was 30.67±0.06 years. The ABCB1 gene is a highly polymorphic gene; the allele frequency of the C3435T polymorphism differs widely among the studied populations. The frequency of the mutant T-allele among the Yakuts was 51% .In the studied group of Yakuts, we revealed the prevalence of the heterozygous CT genotype (75.8%). The Yakuts have a relatively low frequency of CC (10.7%) and TT (13.4%) genotypes. This preliminary study did not include the objective of proving the relationship between the ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and addictive disorders in Yakuts. The further search for functional polymorphisms of the ABCB1 gene and associations with addictive behavior using a systematic approach on larger samples is of great practical importance.
