Abstract
OBJECTIVES Genetic variation has been a major contributor to interindividual variability of warfarin dosage requirement. The specific genetic factors contributing to warfarin bleeding complications are largely unknown, particularly in Chinese patients. In this study, 896 Chinese patients were enrolled to explore the effect of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genetic variations on both the efficacy and safety of warfarin therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS Univariate analyses unveiled significant associations between two specific single nucleotide polymorphisms rs1057910 in CYP2C9 and rs9923231 in VKORC1 and stable warfarin dosage ( P < 0.001). Further, employing multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex and height, the investigation revealed that patients harboring at least one variant allele in CYP2C9 exhibited a heightened risk of bleeding events compared to those with the wild-type genotype (odds ratio = 2.16, P = 0.04). Moreover, a meta-analysis conducted to consolidate findings confirmed the associations of both CYP2C9 (rs1057910) and VKORC1 (rs9923231) with stable warfarin dosage. Notably, CYP2C9 variant genotypes were significantly linked to an increased risk of hemorrhagic complications ( P < 0.00001), VKORC1 did not demonstrate a similar association. CONCLUSION The associations found between specific genetic variants and both stable warfarin dosage and bleeding risk might be the potential significance of gene detection in optimizing warfarin therapy for improving patient efficacy and safety.

Abstract
Effective prevention of thromboembolism is essential for patients with mechanical
prosthetic heart valves. For this group of patients, vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) remain
the drug group of choice despite the widespread use of new anticoagulants in other
diseases. As a consequence, warfarin resistance remains a serious challenge for
physicians. The current report describes a 65-year-old male patient that had a mechanical
prosthetic aortic valve implanted due to severe aortic insufficiency after infective
endocarditis. Despite consistent increases in his warfarin dose, the level of
international normalized ratio (INR) remained very low. The patient was considered to have
warfarin resistance. Warfarin was successfully replaced by another VKA, acenocoumarol,
which resulted in a stable INR observed over 1 year of follow-up. Achieving the target INR
in patients with mechanical prosthetic heart valves using VKAs is the main goal of
thromboprophylaxis. Although the genetic changes that cause warfarin resistance are
understood, the options to overcome these pharmacogenetic issues remain limited. Based on
the success with this current patient, physicians with similar patients with warfarin
resistance might wish to consider replacing warfarin with acenocoumarol.

Abstract
The liver is an important organ for drugs disposition, and thus how to accurately evaluate hepatic clearance is essential for proper drug dosing. However, there are many limitations in drug dosage adjustment based on liver function and pharmacogenomic testing. In this study, we evaluated the ability of endogenous glycochenodeoxycholate-3-sulfate (GCDCA-S) and 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4β-HC) plasma levels to evaluate organic anion-transporting polypeptide (Oatps)-mediated hepatic uptake and Cyp3a-meidated metabolism of atorvastatin (ATV) in rats. The concentration of ATV and its metabolites, 2-OH ATV and 4-OH ATV, was markedly increased after a single injection of rifampicin (RIF), an inhibitor of Oatps. Concurrently, plasma GCDCA-S levels were also elevated. After a single injection of the Cyp3a inhibitor ketoconazole (KTZ), plasma ATV concentrations were significantly increased and 2-OH ATV concentrations were decreased, consistent with the metabolism of ATV by Cyp3a. However, plasma 4β-HC was not affected by KTZ treatment despite it being a Cyp3a metabolite of cholesterol. After repeated oral administration of RIF, plasma concentrations of ATV, 2-OH ATV and 4-OH ATV were markedly increased and the hepatic uptake ratio of ATV and GCDCA-S was decreased. KTZ did not affect plasma concentrations of ATV, 2-OH ATV and 4-OH ATV, but significantly decreased the metabolic ratio of total and 4-OH ATV. However, the plasma level and hepatic metabolism of 4β-HC were not changed by KTZ. The inhibition of hepatic uptake of GCDCA-S by RIF was fully reversed after a 7-d washout of RIF. Plasma concentration and hepatic uptake ratio of GCDCA-S were correlated with the plasma level and hepatic uptake of ATV in rats with ANIT-induced liver injury, respectively. These results demonstrate that plasma GCDCA-S is a sensitive probe for the assessment of Oatps-mediated hepatic uptake of ATV. However, Cyp3a-mediated metabolism of ATV was not predicted by plasma 4β-HC levels in rats.

Abstract
Coumarins such as warfarin are prescribed for prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. Warfarin remains the most widely prescribed and an anticoagulant of choice in Africa. Warfarin use is, however, limited by interindividual variability in pharmacokinetics and a narrow therapeutic index. The difference in patients' pharmacodynamic responses to warfarin has been attributed to genetic variation in warfarin metabolism and molecular targets (e.g., CYP2C9 and VKORC1) and host-environment interactions. This expert review offers a synthesis of human genetics studies in Africans with respect to pharmacogenetics-informed warfarin dosing. We identify areas that need future research attention or could benefit from harnessing existing pharmacogenetics knowledge toward rational and optimal therapeutics with warfarin in African patients. A literature search was conducted until January 2019. A total of 343 articles were retrieved from nine African countries: Botswana, Ethiopia, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, and Mozambique. We found 19 studies on genetics of warfarin treatment specifically among Africans. Genes examined included CYP2C9, VKORC1, CYP4F2, APOE, CALU, GGCX, and EPHX1. CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles were highly frequent among Egyptians, while rare in other African populations. CYP2C9*5, *8, *9, and *11, and VKORC1 Asp36Tyr genetic variants explained warfarin variability in Africans better, compared to CYP2C9*2 and *3. In Africa, there is limited pharmacogenetics data on warfarin. Therefore, future research and funding commitments should be prioritized to ensure safe and effective use of warfarin in Africa. Lessons learned in Africa from the science of pharmacogenetics would inform rational therapeutics in hematology, cardiology, and surgical specialties worldwide.

Abstract
Effective interventions and treatments for complex diseases have been implemented globally, however, coverage in Africa has been comparatively lower due to lack of capacity, clinical applicability and knowledge on the genetic contribution to disease and treatment. Currently, there is a scarcity of genetic data on African populations, which have enormous genetic diversity. Pharmacogenomics studies have the potential to revolutionise treatment of diseases, therefore, African populations are likely to benefit from these approaches to identify likely responders, reduce adverse side effects and optimise drug dosing. This review discusses clinical pharmacogenetics studies conducted in African populations, focusing on studies that examined drug response in complex diseases relevant to healthcare. Several pharmacogenetics associations have emerged from African studies, as have gaps in knowledge.

Abstract
Warfarin is the cardinal anticoagulant drug prescribed around the world. Due to stochastic bleeding in patients, it is essential to adjust the dose for every individual. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms and their association with warfarin maintenance dose in a sample of cardiovascular patients in Birjand, South-Khorasan province of Iran. Patients with a history of cardiovascular disorders who take warfarin daily were selected. CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in all participants. A total of 114 patients (mean age: 52.7 ± 14.9 years, M/F ratio: 0.76) participated in this study. Regarding CYP2C9 gene polymorphisms, the most frequent genotype was 1*/1* (80.4% in females and 62.5% in males). The frequency of 1*/2* and 2*/2* variants was 13% and 6.5% in females and 25% and 12.5% in males, respectively. The frequency of VKORC1 gene (1639 G > A), was 31.5%, 39.5%, and 29% for GG, GA, and AA in males, respectively. Besides, the mentioned genotype frequencies for females were 50%, 40.5%, and 9.5%, respectively. Moreover, there was a statistically significant correlation between VKORC1 gene -1639 G > A variant and warfarin maintenance dose (P < 0.001) but not for CYP2C9 variants. The results of the current study confirmed that the mutant variants of CYP2C9 are not frequent and do not have any impact on warfarin dose. In the case of VKORC1, the mutant allele (A) showed a positive correlation with warfarin dose adjustment.

Abstract
Warfarin is the most commonly used drug for chronic prevention of thromboembolic events, it also ranks high among drugs that cause serious adverse events. The variability in dose requirements has been attributed to inter-individual differences in medical, personal, and genetic factor. Cytochrome P-450 2C9 is the principle enzyme that terminates the anticoagulant effect of warfarin by catalyzing the conversion of the pharmacologically more potent S-enantiomer to its inactive metabolites. Warfarin exerts its effect by inhibition of vitamin K epoxide reductase. This protein is encoded by vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 gene (VKORC1). The current study aimed to investigate the pharmacogenetic effect of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene polymorphisms on the patients response to warfarin. One hundred cases starting warfarin treatment and 20 healthy controls were enrolled. The mean daily dose of warfarin was calculated from patient's medical records. For each patient, less than 10 % variability in warfarin dose and a target international normalized ratio (INR) within the therapeutic target range were required for at least 3 months for one of the following indications (deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, cerebrovascular stroke and myocardial infarction) prior to inclusion in the study. Tetraprimer amplification refractory mutation system PCR was performed to determine CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, and the VKORC1 1639 G > A genetic polymorphisms. Plasma warfarin determination was performed using rapid fluorometric assay. Plasma warfarin concentration ranged from 2.19 to 10.98 μg/ml with a median 3.52 μg/ml. Supratherpeutic INR was observed in 11 % of the cases. Thromboembolic complications occurred in 7 % of the cases and 8 % of cases experienced major bleeding. High maintenance dose (>7 mg/day) was associated with the combined non VKORC1*2 and homozygous wild type CYP2C9 (CYP2C9*1*1) alleles, while low maintenance dose was associated with the Variant (AG + AA)/Wild (*1/*1). (p value <0.001). CYP2C9 variant was a risk factor for supratherapeutic INR in the multivariate logistic regression model. Thromboembolic complication and incidence of supratherapeutic INR were observed in patients carrying combined VKORC1 Variant (AG + AA) and CYP2C9 Variant (*2/*3). Data from our study suggest that together with clinical factors, VKORC1 and CYP2C9 polymorphisms are important contributors to warfarin dosing and may help predict adverse effects in Egyptian patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms are known to influence outcomes with phenytoin yet effects in the Middle East and North Africa region are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the impact of genetic polymorphisms on phenytoin pharmacokinetics and clinical outcomes in populations originating from the Middle East and North Africa region, and to characterize genotypic and allelic frequencies within the region for genetic polymorphisms assessed. METHODS MEDLINE (1946-3 May, 2017), EMBASE (1974-3 May, 2017), Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Base, and Public Health Genomics Knowledge Base online databases were searched. Studies were included if genotyping and analyses of phenytoin pharmacokinetics were performed in patients of the Middle East and North Africa region. Study quality was assessed using a National Institutes of Health assessment tool. A secondary search identified studies reporting genotypic and allelic frequencies of assessed genetic polymorphisms within the Middle East and North Africa region. RESULTS Five studies met the inclusion criteria. CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and multidrug resistance protein 1 C3435T variants were evaluated. While CYP2C9*2 and *3 variants significantly reduced phenytoin metabolism, the impacts of CYP2C19*2 and *3 variants were unclear. The multidrug resistance protein 1 CC genotype was associated with drug-resistant epilepsy, but reported impacts on phenytoin pharmacokinetics were conflicting. Appreciable variability in minor allele frequencies existed both between and within countries of the Middle East and North Africa region. CONCLUSIONS CYP2C9 decrease-of-function alleles altered phenytoin pharmacokinetics in patients originating from the Middle East and North Africa region. The impacts of CYP2C19 and multidrug resistance protein 1 C3435T variants on phenytoin pharmacokinetic and clinical outcomes are unclear and require further investigation. Future research should focus on the clinical outcomes associated with phenytoin therapy. PROSPERO 2017: CRD42017057850.

[PMID: 27992547 PMCID: PMC5167425 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0168732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2016] [Accepted: 12/05/2016] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant for the treatment and prevention of thromboembolic disorders. Pharmacogenomics studies have shown that variants in CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genes are strongly and consistently associated with warfarin dose variability. Although different populations from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region may share the same ancestry, it is still unclear how they compare in the genetic and non-genetic factors affecting their warfarin dosing. Objective To explore the prevalence of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 variants in MENA, and the effect of these variants along with other non-genetic factors in predicting warfarin dose. Methods In this systematic review, we included observational cross sectional and cohort studies that enrolled patients on stable warfarin dose and had the genetics and non-genetics factors associated with mean warfarin dose as the primary outcome. We searched PubMed, Medline, Scopus, PharmGKB, PHGKB, Google scholar and reference lists of relevant reviews. Results We identified 17 studies in eight different populations: Iranian, Israeli, Egyptian, Lebanese, Omani, Kuwaiti, Sudanese and Turkish. Most common genetic variant in all populations was the VKORC1 (-1639G>A), with a minor allele frequency ranging from 30% in Egyptians and up to 52% and 56% in Lebanese and Iranian, respectively. Variants in the CYP2C9 were less common, with the highest MAF for CYP2C9*2 among Iranians (27%). Variants in the VKORC1 and CYP2C9 were the most significant predictors of warfarin dose in all populations. Along with other genetic and non-genetic factors, they explained up to 63% of the dose variability in Omani and Israeli patients. Conclusion Variants of VKORC1 and CYP2C9 are the strongest predictors of warfarin dose variability among the different populations from MENA. Although many of those populations share the same ancestry and are similar in their warfarin dose predictors, a population specific dosing algorithm is needed for the prospective estimation of warfarin dose.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) gene lead to interindividual variability in warfarin dose requirement. The characterization of genotype frequency distribution is required in different populations for construction of customized dosing algorithms to enhance the efficacy and reduce the toxicity of warfarin therapy. This study was carried out in Pakistani population to evaluate the contribution of common VKORC1 polymorphisms to warfarin therapy. A total of 550 stable patients taking warfarin were enrolled after medical history, physical examination, and laboratory investigations. Single blood sample was collected after informed consent. Genomic DNA was extracted and genotype analysis for VKORC1 1173C>T and VKORC1-1639G>A polymorphisms was done by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. A number of samples were also analyzed by direct DNA sequencing for validation of results. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. Genotype frequency distributions of VKORC1 1173C>T and VKORC1-1639G>A were found to be different from other populations. Both of these polymorphisms did not demonstrate significant effect on warfarin dose requirement. Although Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and VKORC1 polymorphisms together attributed only 3.8% variability in warfarin dose but it was statistically significant ( p value = .004). It is concluded that there is a need to study genotype frequency distribution and their effect on warfarin dose variability among different populations due to diversity in outcome. At the same time, no effect on warfarin dose variation explained by VKORC1 polymorphisms and small variability explained by studied genotypes stresses the need for exploration of more genetic and nongenetic factors in Pakistani population.

Abstract
Extensive inter-individual variations in pharmacokinetics are considered as a major reason for unpredictable drug responses. As the most important drug metabolic enzymes, inter-individual variations of cytochrome P450 (CYP) activities are not clear in human liver. In this paper, metabolic activities, gene polymorphisms and protein contents of 10 CYPs were determined in 105 human normal liver microsomes. The results indicated substantial inter-individual variations in CYP activities, with the greatest being CYP2C19 activity (>600-fold). Only half of 10 CYP isoforms and 26 gene polymorphism sites had limited effects on metabolic activities, such as CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4/5, others had almost no effects. Compared with their respective wild type, Km, Vmax, and CLint decreased by 51.6%, 88.7% and 70.7% in CYP2A6*1/*4 genotype, Vmax and CLint decreased by 32.8% and 60.2% in CYP2C9*1/*3 genotype, Km increased by 118.4% and CLint decreased by 65.2% in CYP2D6 100TT genotype, respectively. Moreover, there were only 4 CYP isoforms, CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A5, which had moderate or weak correlations between Vmax values and corresponding contents. In conclusions, the genotypes and contents of some CYPs have only limited effects on metabolic activities, which imply that there are other more important factors to influence inter-individual variations.

Abstract
Warfarin is the most widely prescribed anticoagulant drugs. Cytochrome P450-2C9 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase-oxidaxe complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) contribute significantly to the variability of warfarin dose requirements among patients. We investigated the impact of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms on the variability of warfarin dosage requirements in Egyptian patients with acute coronary syndrome and their association with other nongenetic factors. Eighty participants with acute coronary syndrome were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Associations between CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene variants together with daily warfarin dose, demographic data, clinical status of patients and time to target international normalized ratio were assessed. Mean warfarin dose among patients with wild-type CYP2C91/1 genotype was significantly higher than heterozygous CYP2C91/2 and CYP2C91/3 variants (P ≤ 0.001). Patients with wild VKORC1 (G/G) genotype were treated with significantly higher daily warfarin dosages than homozygous (A/A) and heterozygous (G/A) genotypes. Patients carrying VKORC1 (G/G) genotype in combination with the CYP2C91/1 type alleles had the highest daily warfarin dosage, whereas the lowest daily warfarin dosage to achieve the required clinical effect was found among patients having CYP2C91/2 and CYP2C91/3 genotypes combined with VKORC1 (A/A) genotype (P ≤ 0.001). Regression analysis revealed that age, height, CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes were significantly associated with warfarin dose. Genetic polymorphisms in VKORC1, CYP2C9 along with age and height are determinants of warfarin dose requirements in Egyptian population acute coronary syndrome. Higher warfarin loading dose is required for both wild CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene variants which may contribute to warfarin-resistant cases.

Abstract
Warfarin is a widely used anticoagulant characterized by having a narrow therapeutic index and exhibiting a wide range of inter-individual and inter-ethnic variation. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in hepatic VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genes causes decreased and increased metabolism of warfarin respectively. The objective of this study was to evaluate the allele frequency of CYP2C9 polymorphic variants *2 and *3 and the association of these allelic variants with PT/INR and daily/weekly dose of warfarin. Seventy-four patients with heart valve replacement were selected. Patients taking low warfarin dose (4.90-17.50 mg weekly) for at least last 3 months and had a stable INR in the range of 2-3 were included in this study. CYP2C9 polymorphism was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique. Among 74 patients, 9 (12.1 %) showed to have *2 allele, whereas 11 (14.1 %) had *3 allele. Genotype frequencies of wild and variant alleles were, 54.1, 17.6, 21.6 and 6.8 % for *1/*1, *1/*2, *1/*3 and *2/*3 respectively. None of the patient was homozygous for *2 and *3. Statistical analysis showed that low warfarin dose (weekly) is significantly associated with *1/*2 and *1/*3 genotypes (p value ≥ 0.001), whereas PT/INR showed no significant association with the any genotypes of CYP2C9. Our study suggest that polymorphic variants of CYP2C9 (*2 and *3) might influence warfarin dose requirements and associated with the low dose of warfarin in patients.

Abstract
Background VKORC1 is reported to be capable of treating several diseases with thrombotic risk, such as cardiac valve replacement. Some single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in VKORC1 are documented to be associated with clinical differences in warfarin maintenance dose. This study explored the correlations of VKORC1–1639 G/A, 1173 C/T and 497 T/G genetic polymorphisms with warfarin maintenance dose requirement in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement. Material/Methods A total of 298 patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement were recruited. During follow-up, clinical data were recorded. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was applied to detect VKORC1–1639 G/A, 1173 C/T and 497 T/G polymorphisms, and genotypes were analyzed. Results Correlations between warfarin maintenance dose and baseline characteristics revealed statistical significances of age, gender and operation methods with warfarin maintenance dose (all P<0.05). Warfarin maintenance dose in VKORC1–1639 G/A AG + GG carriers was obviously higher than in AA carriers (P<0.001). As compared with patients with TT genotype in VKORC1 1173 C/T, warfarin maintenance dose was apparently higher in patients with CT genotype (P<0.001). Linear regression analysis revealed that gender, operation method, method for heart valve replacement, as well as VKORC1–1639 G/A and 1173 C/T gene polymorphisms were significantly related to warfarin maintenance dose (all P<0.05). Conclusions VKORC1 gene polymorphisms are key genetic factors to affect individual differences in warfarin maintenance dose in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement; meanwhile, gender, operation method and method for heart valve replacement might also be correlate with warfarin maintenance dose.
