Genomic DNA extraction was performed with a
MagNA Pure LC Total Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA) using
Magna Pure LC 2.0® equipment from Roche. DNA samples were stored at −20 °C until analysis.
Genetic analysis was performed to assess four clinically relevant variants of the
ABCB1 gene (rs3789243, rs1128503, rs2032582, and rs1045642), two variants of the
CES1 gene (rs71647871 and rs2307243), one variant of the
SLC15A1 gene (rs2297322), and one variant of the
NEU2 gene (rs2233385). Allelic discrimination by real-time PCR was performed with specific primers and TaqMan® probes. Approximately 50 ng of genomic DNA was added to a master mix (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) that contained 200 nmol of primers and 40 nmol of probes for each polymorphism. Samples were placed in a 96-well plate and amplified as follows: pre-PCR read at 60 °C for 30 s, then 10 min at 95 °C, followed by 50 cycles of 95 °C for 15 s, and 60 °C for 1 min. Post-read analyses were performed at 60 °C for 30 s. All assays were carried out in a
7500 Fast PCR System (Applied Biosystems), and analyses were performed with
7500 Fast System SDS software.
