Abstract
Antiplatelets and anticoagulants are extensively used in cardiovascular medicine for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis in the venous and arterial circulations. Wide inter-individual variability has been observed in response to antiplatelets and anticoagulants, which triggered researchers to investigate the genetic basis of this variability. Data from extensive pharmacogenetic studies pointed to strong evidence of association between polymorphisms in candidate genes and the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic action and clinical response of the antiplatelets clopidogrel and the anticoagulant warfarin. In this review, we conducted an extensive search on Medline for the time period of 2009-2023. We also searched the PharmGKB website for levels of evidence of variant-drug combinations and for drug labels and clinical guidelines. We focus on the pharmacogenetics of novel antiplatelets and anticoagulants while excluding acetylsalicylic acid, warfarin and heparins, and discuss the current knowledge with emphasis on the level of evidence.

Gene polymorphism as a cause of hemorrhagic complications in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation treated with oral vitamin K-independent anticoagulants. Ther Adv Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 18:17539447241249886.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) accounts for 40% of all cardiac arrhythmias and is associated with a high risk of stroke and systemic thromboembolic complications. Dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban are direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) that have been proven to prevent stroke in patients with non-valvular AF. This review summarizes the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and drug interactions of DOACs, as well as new data from pharmacogenetic studies of these drugs. This review is aimed at analyzing the scientific literature on the gene polymorphisms involved in the metabolism of DOACs. We searched PubMed, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and CyberLeninka (Russian version) databases with keywords: 'dabigatran', 'apixaban', 'rivaroxaban', 'edoxaban', 'gene polymorphism', 'pharmacogenetics', 'ABCB1', 'CES1', 'SULT1A', 'ABCG2', and 'CYP3A4'. The articles referred for this review include (1) full-text articles; (2) study design with meta-analysis, an observational study in patients taking DOAC; and (3) data on the single-nucleotide polymorphisms and kinetic parameters of DOACs (plasma concentration), or a particular clinical outcome, published in English and Russian languages during the last 10 years. The ages of the patients ranged from 18 to 75 years. Out of 114 reviewed works, 24 were found eligible. As per the available pharmacogenomic data, polymorphisms affecting DOACs are different. This may aid in developing individual approaches to optimize DOAC pharmacotherapy to reduce the risk of hemorrhagic complications. However, large-scale population studies are required to determine the dosage of the new oral anticoagulants based on genotyping. Information on the genetic effects is limited owing to the lack of large-scale studies. Uncovering the mechanisms of the genetic basis of sensitivity to DOACs helps in developing personalized therapy based on patient-specific genetic variants and improves the efficacy and safety of DOACs in the general population.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is a heterogeneous condition influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent advancements have explored genetics in relation to various aspects of ischemic stroke, including the alteration of individual stroke occurrence risk, modulation of treatment response, and effectiveness of post-stroke functional recovery. This article aims to review the recent findings from genetic studies related to various clinical and molecular aspects of ischemic stroke. The potential clinical applications of these genetic insights in stratifying stroke risk, guiding personalized therapy, and identifying new therapeutic targets are discussed herein.

Variants in CDHR3, CACNAC1, and LTA Genes Predisposing Sensitivity and Response to Warfarin in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease. Int J Gen Med 2021; 14:1093-1100. [PMID: 33790638 PMCID: PMC8006967 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s298597] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 03/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Warfarin has been in use for more than 60 years; however, it has serious side effects including major bleeding. The high interpatient variability in the required dose impacts the sensitivity and responsiveness to warfarin in different patients. This study aims to assess the influence of CDHR3, CACNAC1, and LTA gene polymorphisms on the variability of warfarin dose requirements and susceptibility to coronary heart disease in the Jordanian population. Methods This study was conducted in the anti-coagulation clinic in Queen Alia Heart Institute in Amman, with 212 patients in total. Three SNPs were genotyped within CDHR3 (rs10270308), CACNAC1 (rs216013), and LTA (rs1041981) genes. Results Our findings revealed that patients with LTA polymorphism are more prone to warfarin sensitivity than others. Furthermore, carriers of the LTA polymorphism needed a lower initial dose of warfarin and are associated with less variation in doses required to achieve target INR. Conclusion The current study could help in understanding the role of genetic variability in warfarin dosing and matching patients to different treatment options. Clinical applications of these findings for warfarin treatment may also contribute to improving the efficacy and safety of warfarin treatment in Jordanian patients with cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Symptomatic interventions for patients with dementia involve anti-dementia drugs to improve cognition, psychotropic drugs for the treatment of behavioral disorders (BDs), and different categories of drugs for concomitant disorders. Demented patients may take >6-10 drugs/day with the consequent risk for drug-drug interactions and adverse drug reactions (ADRs >80%) which accelerate cognitive decline. The pharmacoepigenetic machinery is integrated by pathogenic, mechanistic, metabolic, transporter, and pleiotropic genes redundantly and promiscuously regulated by epigenetic mechanisms. CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4/5 geno-phenotypes are involved in the metabolism of over 90% of drugs currently used in patients with dementia, and only 20% of the population is an extensive metabolizer for this tetragenic cluster. ADRs associated with anti-dementia drugs, antipsychotics, antidepressants, anxiolytics, hypnotics, sedatives, and antiepileptic drugs can be minimized by means of pharmacogenetic screening prior to treatment. These drugs are substrates, inhibitors, or inducers of 58, 37, and 42 enzyme/protein gene products, respectively, and are transported by 40 different protein transporters. APOE is the reference gene in most pharmacogenetic studies. APOE-3 carriers are the best responders and APOE-4 carriers are the worst responders; likewise, CYP2D6-normal metabolizers are the best responders and CYP2D6-poor metabolizers are the worst responders. The incorporation of pharmacogenomic strategies for a personalized treatment in dementia is an effective option to optimize limited therapeutic resources and to reduce unwanted side-effects.
