Abstract
Aims The prognosis of heart failure (HF) depends on genetic predisposition, and recent studies have shown that impaired autophagy is involved in HF. This study was aimed to construct a prognostic model combining polygenetic background based on the autophagy pathway and other traditional risk factors (TRF) of HF prognosis. Methods and results Via re‐analysing the transcriptomic data of 50 failing and 14 non‐failing donors, differentially expressed autophagy‐related genes (ARGs) were chosen for further comparison and analysis with whole exome sequencing and follow‐up data of 1000 HF patients. By searching from reported articles, prognosis‐related polymorphisms were identified. ARGs and prognosis‐related polymorphisms were used to develop genetic risk score (GRS) and genetic risk factor (GRF), respectively. We compared the predictive power of five models [Model 1, GRS; Model 2, composite of TRF and N‐terminal B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP); Model 3, composite of TRF, NT‐proBNP, and GRS; Model 4, composite of TRF, NT‐proBNP, and GRF; and Model 5, composite of TRF, NT‐proBNP, GRF, and GRS] by applying receiver operating characteristic curves. Twenty‐four prognosis‐related polymorphisms were used to construct GRF and 11 variants among 48 differentially expressed ARGs associated with clinical outcomes of HF patients were applied for GRS. GRS was strongly associated with cardiac mortality of HF patients, independent of TRF and GRF (95% confidence interval 1.273–1.739, P = 5.78 × 10−7). Comparing with patients with lowest GRS tertile, those with highest tertile had higher risks of developing worse clinical outcomes (hazard ratio = 1.866; 95% confidence interval 1.352–2.575, P = 1.47 × 10−4). The discrimination power of the model including GRS, TRF, GRF, and NT‐proBNP is most considerable (area under curve = 0.777), especially in men, patients over 60, patients with hypertension, patients without diabetes or hyperlipidaemia. Conclusions The model combining autophagy‐related GRS, TRF, GRF, and NT‐proBNP performs well in distinguishing between worse‐prognosis and better‐prognosis HF patients, leading a promising strategy for HF treatment and HF prevention.

Abstract
Background: The α1 antagonist doxazosin reduces cocaine use in individuals with cocaine use disorder (CUD) through a functional polymorphism of the α1 adrenoreceptor. The regulatory role of the α1 adrenoreceptor subtype D (ADRA1D) gene polymorphism in CUD is uncharacterized.Objectives: To study how the genetic variant of ADRA1D gene (T1848A, rs2236554) may affect the treatment efficacy of doxazosin in reducing cocaine use.Methods: This 12-week pilot trial included 76 participants with CUD with ADRA1D (T1848A, rs2236554) AA (N = 40) or AT/TT genotype (N = 36). Participants were randomized to doxazosin (8 mg/day, N = 47) or placebo (N = 29), and followed with thrice weekly urine toxicology and once weekly cognitive behavioral psychotherapy.Results: The AA and the AT/TT groups had comparable baseline rates of cocaine positive urines at weeks 1-2 (~ 76%). In the placebo group, an increase of cocaine positive urines in the AT/TT group was found as compared to the AA group (24% vs. 9%). In the doxazosin group, a greater decrease in cocaine positive urines was found in the AT/TT group relative to the AA group. The difference between the doxazosin and placebo groups in cocaine negative urines became evident at weeks 5-6 and peaked at weeks 9-10 (~35% difference). The AT/TT group demonstrated a significant medication and time by medication effect (p < .001), whereas the AA group did not.Conclusion: The T-allele carriers showed a greater reduction of cocaine use after treatment with doxazosin in participants with the ADRA1D gene polymorphism (T1848A), suggesting that this SNP may serve as a pharmacogenetic marker in pharmacotherapy of CUD.

Association of Genetic Polymorphisms in the Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor with Recovery of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients with Heart Failure. J Cardiovasc Transl Res 2019; 12:280-289.

Abstract
Two common genetic polymorphisms in the beta-1 adrenergic receptor (ADRB1 Ser49Gly [rs1801252] and Arg389Gly [rs1801253]) significantly affect receptor function in vitro. The objective of this study was to determine whether ADRB1 Ser49Gly and Arg389Gly are associated with recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with heart failure. Patients with heart failure and baseline LVEF ≤ 40% were genotyped (n = 98), and retrospective chart review assessed the primary outcome of LVEF recovery to ≥ 40%. Un/adjusted logistic regression models revealed that Ser49Gly, but not Arg389Gly, was significantly associated with LVEF recovery in a dominant genetic model. The adjusted odds ratio for Ser49 was 8.2 (95% CI = 2.1-32.9; p = 0.003), and it was the strongest predictor of LVEF recovery among multiple clinical variables. In conclusion, patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction that are homozygous for ADRB1 Ser49 were significantly more likely to experience LVEF recovery than Gly49 carriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) and multiple HF-related phenotypes are heritable. Genes implicated in the HF pathophysiology would be expected to influence the response to treatment. METHODS We conducted a series of systematic literature searches on the pharmacogenetics of HF therapy to assess the current knowledge on this field. RESULTS Existing data related to HF pharmacogenomics are still limited. The ADRB1 gene is a likely candidate to predict response to β-blockers. Moreover, the cytochrome P450 2D6 coding gene (CYP2D6) clearly affects the pharmacokinetics of metoprolol, although the clinical impact of this association remains to be established. CONCLUSION Given the rising prevalence of HF and related costs, a more personalized use of HF drugs could have a remarkable benefit for patients, caregivers and healthcare systems.

Abstract
The combination of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) blockers remains the essential component of heart failure (HF) pharmacotherapy. However, individual patient responses to these pharmacotherapies vary widely. The variability in response cannot be explained entirely by clinical characteristics, and genetic variation may play a role. The purpose of this chapter is to examine the current knowledge in the field of beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor pharmacogenetics in HF. β-blocker and ACE inhibitor pharmacogenetic studies performed in patients with HF were identified from the PubMed database from 1966 to July 2011. Thirty beta-blocker and 10 ACE inhibitor pharmacogenetic studies in patients with HF were identified.The ACE deletion variant was associated with greater survival benefit from ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers compared with the ACE insertion. Ser49 in the β1AR, the insertion in the α2CAR, and Gln41 in G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinase (GRK)-5 are associated with greater survival benefit from β-blockers, compared with Gly49, the deletion, and Leu41, respectively. However, many of these associations have not been validated. The HF pharmacogenetic literature is still in its very early stages, but there are promising candidate genetic variants that may identify which HF patients are most likely to benefit from beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors and patients that may require additional therapies.

Abstract
Approximately 80-90% of the norepinephrine released in the brain or in peripheral tissues is taken up again through the neuronal norepinephrine transporter (NET). Pharmacological studies with NET inhibitors showed that NET has opposing effects on cardiovascular sympathetic regulation in the brain and in the periphery. Furthermore, NET is involved in the distribution of sympathetic activity between vasculature, heart, and kidney. Genetic NET dysfunction is a rare cause of the postural tachycardia syndrome. The condition is characterized by excessive adrenergic stimulation of the heart, particularly with standing. Conversely, NET inhibition may be beneficial in hypoadrenergic states, such as central autonomic failure or neurally mediated syncope, which results from acute sympathetic withdrawal. Biochemical studies suggested reduced NET function in some patients with essential hypertension. Furthermore, cardiac NET function appears to be reduced in common heart diseases, such as congestive heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and stress-induced cardiomyopathy. Whether NET dysfunction is a consequence or cause of progressive heart disease in human subjects requires further study. However, studies with the nonselective NET inhibitor sibutramine suggest that reduced NET function could have an adverse effect on the cardiovascular system. Given the widespread use of medications inhibiting NET, the issue deserves more attention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Metoclopramide is associated with variable efficacy and side effects when used in the treatment of gastroparesis. AIM To determine associations of clinical and pharmacogenetic parameters with response and side effects to metoclopramide in patients with upper gastrointestinal symptoms suggestive of gastroparesis. METHODS Gastroparetic patients treated with metoclopramide were enrolled. Clinical parameters recorded were age, sex, weight, diabetic status, gastric emptying result, daily dose, effectiveness, and side effects. DNA was isolated from salivary samples; 20 single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped in 8 candidate genes (ABCB1, ADRA1D, CYP1A2, CYP2D6, DRD2, DRD3, HTR4, KCNH2). RESULTS One hundred gastroparetic patients treated with metoclopramide participated. Dose averaged 33±16 mg/d for 1.1±1.7 years. Responders (53 of 100 patients) were older (48±15 vs. 38±11 y; P=0.0004) and heavier (body mass index of 28±7 vs. 25±7; P=0.0125). Efficacy was associated with polymorphisms in KCNH2 (rs1805123, P=0.020) and ADRA1D (rs2236554, P=0.035) genes. Side effects, occurred in 64 patients, were more common in females (83% vs. 64%; P=0.037), nondiabetics (77% vs. 47%; P=0.004), and patients with normal gastric emptying (41% vs. 17%; P=0.015). Side effects were associated with polymorphisms in CYP2D6 (rs1080985, P=0.045; rs16947, P=0.008; rs3892097, P=0.049), KCNH2 (rs3815459, P=0.015), and serotonin 5-HT4 receptor HTR4 gene (rs9325104, P=0.026). CONCLUSIONS Side effects to metoclopramide were more common in nondiabetic patients with normal gastric emptying. Polymorphisms in CYP2D6, KCNH2, and 5-HT4 receptor HTR4 genes were associated with side effects, whereas polymorphisms in KCNH2 and ADRA1D genes were associated with clinical response. Clinical parameters and pharmacogenetic testing may be useful in identifying patients before treatment with metoclopramide to enhance efficacy and minimize side effects.

Abstract
The individual patient responses to chronic heart failure (HF) pharmacotherapies are highly variable. This variability cannot be entirely explained by clinical characteristics, and genetic variation may play a role. Therefore, this review will summarize the background pharmacogenetic literature for major HF pharmacotherapy classes (ie, β-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, digoxin, and loop diuretics), evaluate recent advances in the HF pharmacogenetic literature in the context of previous findings, and discuss the challenges and conclusions for HF pharmacogenetic data and its clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Domperidone is a useful alternative to metoclopramide for treatment of gastroparesis due to better tolerability. Effectiveness and side-effects from domperidone may be influenced by patient-related factors including polymorphisms in genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters, and domperidone targets. AIMS The aim of this study was to determine if demographic and pharmacogenetic parameters of patients receiving domperidone are associated with response to treatment or side-effects. METHODS Patients treated with domperidone for gastroparesis provided saliva samples from which DNA was extracted. Fourteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in seven candidate genes (ABCB1, CYP2D6, DRD2, KCNE1, KCNE2, KCNH2, KCNQ1) were used for genotyping. SNP microarrays were used to assess single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the ADRA1A, ADRA1B, and ADRA1D loci. RESULTS Forty-eight patients treated with domperidone participated in the study. DNA was successfully obtained from each patient. Age was associated with effectiveness of domperidone (p=0.0088). Genetic polymorphism in KCNH2 was associated with effectiveness of domperidone (p=0.041). The efficacious dose was associated with polymorphism in ABCB1 gene (p=0.0277). The side-effects of domperidone were significantly associated with the SNPs in the promoter region of ADRA1D gene. CONCLUSIONS Genetic characteristics associated with response to domperidone therapy included polymorphisms in the drug transporter gene ABCB1, the potassium channel KCNH2 gene, and α1D--adrenoceptor ADRA1D gene. Age was associated with a beneficial response to domperidone. If verified in a larger population, this information might be used to help determine which patients with gastroparesis might respond to domperidone and avoid treatment in those who might develop side-effects.

Abstract
Expression level, control, and intercoordination of 66 selected heart rhythm determinant (HRD) genes were compared in atria and ventricles of four male and four female adult mice. We found that genes encoding various adrenergic receptors, ankyrins, ion channels and transporters, connexins, cadherins, plakophilins, and other components of the intercalated discs form a complex network that is chamber dependent and differs between the two sexes. In addition, most HRD genes in atria had higher expression in males than in females, while in ventricles, expression levels were mostly higher in females than in males. Moreover, significant chamber differences were observed between the sexes, with higher expression in atria than ventricles for males and higher expression in ventricles than atria for females. We have ranked the selected genes according to their prominence (new concept) within the HRD gene web defined as extent of expression coordination with the other web genes and stability of expression. Interestingly, the prominence hierarchy was substantially different between the two sexes. Taken together, these findings indicate that the organizational principles of the heart rhythm transcriptome are sex dependent, with the newly introduced prominence analysis allowing identification of genes that are pivotal for the sexual dichotomy.
