Structure-activity relationships andz interindividual variability of drug responses: pharmacogenomics with antimicrobial drugs as a paradigm. J Int Med Res 2023; 51:3000605231214065.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions represent a major health burden because they cause notable patient morbidity and mortality. From this viewpoint, several strategies have been developed to prevent or reduce adverse drug reactions. One such strategy is the use of pharmacogenomics. Interindividual variability in drug response and adverse effects is mainly attributable to genetic variation in enzymes such as sulfotransferases and cytochrome P450s. The current narrative review discusses the relationship between the structure and activity of drugs. Specifically, the activity of drugs can be increased and/or their adverse effects can be reduced by altering specific positions in their structures.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of global deaths, and many risk factors contribute to their pathogenesis. In this context, prostanoids, which derive from arachidonic acid, have attracted attention for their involvement in cardiovascular homeostasis and inflammatory processes. Prostanoids are the target of several drugs, but it has been shown that some of them increase the risk of thrombosis. Overall, many studies have shown that prostanoids are tightly associated with cardiovascular diseases and that several polymorphisms in genes involved in their synthesis and function increase the risk of developing these pathologies. In this review, we focus on molecular mechanisms linking prostanoids to cardiovascular diseases and we provide an overview of genetic polymorphisms that increase the risk for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids are widely prescribed for the treatment of mild to severe pain. Wide interindividual variability regarding the analgesic efficacy and adverse reactions to these drugs (ADRs) exist, although the mechanisms responsible for these ADRs are not well understood. AREAS COVERED We provide an overview of the clinical impact of variants in genes related to the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of painkillers, as well as those associated with the susceptibility to ADRs. Also, we discuss the current pharmacogenetic-guided treatment recommendations for the therapeutic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids. EXPERT OPINION In the light of the data analyzed, common variants in genes involved in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics processes may partially explain the lack of response to painkiller treatment and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. The implementation of high-throughput sequencing technologies may help to unveil the role of rare variants as considerable contributors to explaining the interindividual variability in drug response. Furthermore, a consensus between the diverse pharmacogenetic guidelines is necessary to extend the implementation of pharmacogenetic-guided prescription in daily clinical practice. Additionally, the physiologically-based pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics modeling techniques may contribute to the improvement of these guidelines and facilitate clinicians drug dose adjustment.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are extensively prescribed in daily clinical practice. NSAIDs are the main cause of drug hypersensitivity reactions all over the world. The inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes by NSAIDs can perpetuate arachidonic acid metabolism, shunting to the 5-lipoxygenase pathway and its downstream inflammatory process. Clinical phenotypes of NSAID hypersensitivity are diverse and can be classified into cross-reactive or selective responses. Efforts have been made to understand pathogenic mechanisms, in which, genetic and epigenetic backgrounds are implicated in various processes of NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions. Although there were some similarities among patients, several genetic polymorphisms are distinct in those exhibiting respiratory or cutaneous symptoms. Moreover, the expression levels, as well as the methylation status of genes related to immune responses were demonstrated to be involved in NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions. There is still a lack of data on delayed type reactions. Further studies with a larger sample size, which integrate different genetic pathways, can help overcome current limitations of gen etic/epigenetic studies, and provide valuable information on NSAID hypersensitivity reactions.

Deep sequencing of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGE) genes reveals genetic susceptibility for cross-reactive hypersensitivity to NSAID. Br J Pharmacol 2021; 178:1218-1233.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cross-reactive hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is a relatively common adverse drug event caused by two or more chemically unrelated drugs and that is attributed to inhibition of the COX activity, particularly COX-1. Several studies investigated variations in the genes coding for COX enzymes as potential risk factors. However, these studies only interrogated a few single nucleotide variations (SNVs), leaving untested most of the gene sequence. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH In this study, we analysed the whole sequence of the prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase genes, PTGS1 and PTGS2, including all exons, exon-intron boundaries and both the 5' and 3' flanking regions in patients with cross-reactive hypersensitivity to NSAIDs and healthy controls. After sequencing analysis in 100 case-control pairs, we replicated the findings in 540 case-control pairs. Also, we analysed copy number variations for both PTGS genes. KEY RESULTS The most salient finding was the presence of two PTGS1 single nucleotide variations, which are significantly more frequent in patients than in control subjects. Patients carrying these single nucleotide variations displayed a significantly and markedly lower COX-1 activity as compared to non-carriers for both heterozygous and homozygous patients. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Although the risk single nucleotide variations are present in a small proportion of patients, the strong association observed and the functional effect of these single nucleotide variations raise the hypothesis of genetic susceptibility to develop cross-reactive NSAID hypersensitivity in individuals with an impairment in COX-1 enzyme activity.

Abstract
Molecular-targeted drugs specifically interfere with molecules that are frequently overexpressed or mutated in cancer cells. As such, these drugs are generally considered to precisely attack cancer cells, thereby inducing fewer adverse drug reactions (ADRs). However, molecular-targeted drugs can still cause characteristic ADRs that, although rarely severe, can be life-threatening. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to be able to predict which patients are at risk of developing ADRs after treatment with molecular-targeted therapy. The emerging field of pharmacogenetics aims to better distinguish the genetic variants associated with drug toxicity and efficacy to improve the selection of therapeutic strategies for each genetic profile. Here, we provide an overview of the current reports on the relationship between genetic variants and molecular-targeted drug-induced severe ADRs in oncology.

Abstract
Introduction: Several reports suggest a possible association between polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) gene and the risk for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-related adverse gastrointestinal events, including gastrointestinal bleeding. Because findings were controversial, a systematic review and a meta-analysis of eligible studies on this putative association was conducted.Areas covered: The authors have revised the relationship between CYP2C9 polymorphisms and the risk of developing NSAID-related gastrointestinal bleeding, as well as other adverse gastrointestinal events, and performed meta-analyzes. The bias effect and potential sources of heterogeneity between studies was analyzed.Expert opinion: Individuals classified as poor metabolizers after CYP2C9 genotyping (activity scores equal to 0 or 0.5) have an increased risk of developing NSAID-related gastrointestinal adverse events with an odds ratio (OR) = 1.86, (p = 0.004) and the OR for subjects with gastrointestinal bleeding is = 1.90, (p = 0.003). Gene-dose effect for variant CYP2C9 alleles (p = 0.005 for all gastrointestinal adverse events, and p = 0.0001 for bleeding patients) was observed. Also, there is an allele-specific effect in the association: CYP2C9*2 is a poor risk predictor, whereas CYP2C9*3 is a highly significant predictor of gastrointestinal adverse events (p = 0.006) and gastrointestinal bleeding (p = 0.0007).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of arachidonic acid metabolites in NSAID-induced hypersensitivity has been studied in depth for NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) and NSAID-exacerbated cutaneous disease (NECD). However, no information is available for NSAID-induced urticarial/angioedema (NIUA), despite it being the most frequent clinical entity induced by NSAID hypersensitivity. We evaluated changes in leukotriene and prostaglandin metabolites for NIUA patients, using patients with NECD and single-NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema or anaphylaxis (SNIUAA) for comparison. METHODS Urine samples were taken from patients with confirmed NSAID-induced urticaria and healthy controls, at baseline and at various time intervals after ASA administration. Eicosanoid measurement was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS No differences were found between groups at baseline. Following ASA administration, LTE4 and 9α,11β-PGF2 levels were increased in both NIUA and NECD patients compared to baseline, rising initially, before decreasing toward initial levels. In addition, the levels of these metabolites were higher in NIUA and NECD when compared with the SNIUAA and control groups after ASA administration. No changes were found with respect to baseline values for SNIUAA and control groups. CONCLUSIONS We present for the first time data regarding the role of COX-1 inhibition in NIUA. Patients with this entity show a similar pattern eicosanoid levels following ASA challenge to those with NECD. Further studies will help ascertain the cell populations involved and the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Asthma is a frequent disease, mainly characterized by airway inflammation, in which drug therapy is crucial in its management. The potential of pharmacogenomics testing in asthma therapy has been, to date, little explored. In this review, we discuss pharmacogenetic factors affecting asthma treatment, both related to drugs used as controller medications for regular maintenance, such as inhaled corticosteroids, anti-leukotriene agents, long-acting beta-agonists, and the new biologic agents used to treat severe persistent asthma. In addition, we discuss current pharmacogenomics knowledge for rescue medications provided to all patients for as-needed relief, such as short-acting beta-agonists. Evidence for genetic variations as a factor related to drugs response has been provided for the following genes and groups of drugs: Inhaled corticosteroids: FCER2; anti-leukotriene agents: ABCC1, and LTC4S; beta-agonists: ADRB2. However, the following genes require further studies confirming or rejecting association with the response to asthma therapy: ADCY9, ALOX5, ARG1, ARG2, CRHR1, CRHR2, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYSLTR1, CYSLTR2, GLCCI1, IL4RA, LTA4H, ORMDL3, SLCO2B1, SPATS2L, STIP1, T, TBX21, THRA, THRB, and VEGFA. Although only a minority of these genes are, at present, listed as associated with drugs used in asthma therapy, in the Clinical Pharmacogenomics Implementation Consortium gene-drug pair list, this review reveals that sufficient evidence to start testing the potential of clinical pharmacogenomics in asthma therapy already exists. This evidence supports the inclusion in pilot pharmacogenetics tests of at least four genes. Hopefully these tests, if proven useful, will increase the efficiency and the safety of asthma therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW NSAIDs are the drugs most frequently involved in hypersensitivity reactions (HSR). These are frequently prescribed at all ages. HSR are of great concern and can affect people at any age. These drugs can induce reactions by stimulating the adaptive immune system (IgE or T cell), known as selective responders or more frequently by abnormalities in biochemical pathways related with prostaglandin metabolism. These are known as cross-intolerant. With some exceptions, skin testing and in-vitro studies are of little value in selective responders. RECENT FINDINGS In the last years, several classifications have been provided based on clinical symptoms, time interval between drug intake and appearance of symptoms, response to other nonchemically related NSAIDs and the underlying disease. Based on this classification, several well differentiated categories within each group of entities cross-intolerant and selective responders are now recognized. The most complex groups for evaluation are cross-intolerant in which three major groups exist: NSAIDs exacerbated respiratory disease, NSAIDs exacerbated cutaneous disease and NSAIDs-induced urticaria/angioedema in the absence of chronic spontaneous urticaria. Within the selective responders, there are two mechanisms involved: drug-specific IgE or T-cell effector responses. New entities have been added to this classification like mixed reactions within the cross-intolerant category, that must manifest as anaphylaxis and multiple immediate selective reactions. SUMMARY The precise evaluation of patients with NSAIDs hypersensitivity following established guidelines will improve not only our understanding but also the management of these entities. As the number of patients affected with NSAIDs is important, further studies are warranted.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the medications most frequently involved in hypersensitivity reactions to drugs. These can be induced by specific immunological and nonimmunological mechanisms, being the latter the most frequent. The nonimmunological mechanism is related to an imbalance of inflammatory mediators, which is aggravated by the cyclooxygenase inhibition. Genetic studies suggest that multiples genes and additional mechanisms might be involved. The proposals of this review is summarize the contribution of variations in genes involved in the arachidonic acid, inflammatory and immune pathways as well as the recent genome-wide association studies findings related to cross-intolerant nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs hypersensitivity reactions. In addition, using integration of different genetic studies, we propose new target genes. This will help to understand the underlying mechanism of these reactions.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents, β-lactam antibiotics, non-β lactam antibiotics, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are the most common classes of drugs that cause angioedema. Drug-induced angioedema is known to occur via mechanisms mediated by histamine, bradykinin, or leukotriene, and an understanding of these mechanisms is crucial in guiding therapeutic decisions. Nonallergic angioedema occurs in patients with genetic variants that affect metabolism or synthesis of bradykinin, substance P, prostaglandins, or leukotrienes, or when patients are taking drugs that have synergistic mechanisms. The mainstay in treatment of nonallergic drug-induced angioedema is cessation of the offending agents.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity may manifest ranging from milder skin reactions (e.g., maculopapular exanthema and urticaria) to severe systemic reactions, such as anaphylaxis, drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS), or Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Current pharmacogenomic studies have made important strides in the prevention of some drug hypersensitivity through the identification of relevant genetic variants, particularly for genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes and human leukocyte antigens (HLAs). The associations identified by these studies are usually drug, phenotype, and ethnic specific. The drug presentation models that explain how small drug antigens might interact with HLA and T cell receptor (TCR) molecules in drug hypersensitivity include the hapten theory, the p-i concept, the altered peptide repertoire model, and the altered TCR repertoire model. The broad spectrum of clinical manifestations of drug hypersensitivity involving different drugs, as well as the various pathomechanisms involved, makes the diagnosis and management of it more challenging. This review highlights recent advances in our understanding of the predisposing factors, immune mechanisms, pathogenesis, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic approaches for drug hypersensitivity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The review critically assesses the different phenotypes of angioedemas associated with NSAIDs. Angioedemas exacerbated or induced by NSAIDs have high morbidity and, when they affect the larynx, can lead to death by asphyxiation. RECENT FINDINGS Angioedema can present as a manifestation of a syndrome such as anaphylaxis or it can be a separate entity, which comprises different forms that can be diagnosed based on specific criteria. NSAIDs are the drugs most used worldwide and they are also one of the leading causes of angioedema. SUMMARY The manuscript addresses the pathophysiology and pharmacogenetics of angioedema, reviews its classification and assesses the diagnosis and management of angioedemas exacerbated and induced by NSAIDs.

Abstract
Off-target adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are associated with significant morbidity and costs to the healthcare system, and their occurrence is not predictable based on the known pharmacological action of the drug's therapeutic effect. Off-target ADRs may or may not be associated with immunological memory, although they can manifest with a variety of shared clinical features, including maculopapular exanthema, severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), angioedema, pruritus and bronchospasm. Discovery of specific genes associated with a particular ADR phenotype is a foundational component of clinical translation into screening programmes for their prevention. In this review, genetic associations of off-target drug-induced ADRs that have a clinical phenotype suggestive of an immunologically mediated process and their mechanisms are highlighted. A significant proportion of these reactions lack immunological memory and current data are informative for these ADRs with regard to disease pathophysiology, therapeutic targets and biomarkers which may identify patients at greatest risk. Although many serious delayed immune-mediated (IM)-ADRs show strong human leukocyte antigen associations, only a small subset have successfully been implemented in screening programmes. More recently, other factors, such as drug metabolism, have been shown to contribute to the risk of the IM-ADR. In the future, pharmacogenomic targets and an understanding of how they interact with drugs to cause ADRs will be applied to drug design and preclinical testing, and this will allow selection of optimal therapy to improve patient safety.
