Mexican American subgroup

There are few pharmacogenetic data for Hispanics. As previously stated, not every Hispanic subgroup has been phenotyped. To the best of our knowledge, our research unit is the only one that has reported on the results of CYP2D6 genotyping in Mexican Americans (Mendoza 1996). There are, however, data regarding isozymes that are thought to be fairly specific to Asians, Africans, and Spaniards.
