[PMID: 38192780 PMCID: PMC10772244 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e23942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown that the rs717620 polymorphism in ABCC2, the gene encoding multidrug resistance protein 2, influences the therapeutic response to anti-seizure medications (ASMs). However, this result is not consistent, and the mechanism by which rs717620 influences ASM responses is unclear. Aims The present study evaluated the association between rs717620 genotype and ASM efficacy, and examined the potential mechanisms. Main methods: We conducted a literature search of five electronic databases, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang, to identify relevant studies on response to ASM therapy among rs717620 genotypes. Expression quantitative trait loci analysis and drug-gene interaction analysis were also performed to assess the underlying mechanisms. Key findings The pooled results for 18 studies revealed a significant association between rs717620 genotype and ASM resistance under the recessive model (TT vs. CT + CC: OR = 1.68, 95 % CI = 1.27-2.21, I2 = 3.1 %). A significant association was also found in the Asian population under the recessive model (TT vs. CT + CC: OR = 1.70, 95 % CI = 1.26-2.29, I2 = 29.3 %). Further analysis revealed that rs717620 regulates the expression of ABCC2 in human brain, while drug-gene interaction analysis suggested that ABCC2 interacts with oxcarbazepine and carbamazepine. Significance The rs717620 polymorphism influences ASM therapeutic responses by altering brain expression levels of ABCC2.

Impact of ABCC2 1249G>A and -24C>T Polymorphisms on Lacosamide Efficacy and Plasma Concentrations in Uygur Pediatric Patients With Epilepsy in China. Ther Drug Monit 2023; 45:117-125. [PMID: 36253887 PMCID: PMC9819208 DOI: 10.1097/ftd.0000000000001003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate the effect of the ABCC2 1249G>A (rs2273697) and -24C>T (rs717620) polymorphisms on lacosamide (LCM) plasma concentrations and the efficacy of LCM in Uygur pediatric patients with epilepsy. METHODS We analyzed 231 pediatric patients with epilepsy, among which 166 were considered to be LCM responsive. For drug assays, 2-3 mL of venous blood was collected from each patient just before the morning LCM dose was administered (approximately 12 hours after the evening dose, steady-state LCM concentrations). The remaining samples after routine therapeutic drug monitoring were used for genotyping analysis. The χ 2 test and Fisher exact test were utilized for comparative analysis of the allelic and genotypic distribution of ABCC2 polymorphisms between the LCM-resistant and LCM-responsive groups. The Student t test or Mann-Whitney U test was conducted to analyze differences in plasma LCM concentration among pediatric patients with epilepsy with different genotypes. RESULTS Patients with the ABCC2 1249G>A GA genotype (0.7 ± 0.3 mcg/mL per kg/mg) and AA genotype (0.5 ± 0.3 mcg/mL per kg/mg) showed significantly ( P < 0.001) lower LCM concentration-to-dose (CD) ratios than patients with the GG genotype (1.0 ± 0.4 mcg/mL per kg/mg). Moreover, patients with the ABCC2 -24C>T CT genotype (0.6 ± 0.2 mcg/mL per kg/mg) and TT genotype (0.6 ± 0.3 mcg/mL per kg/mg) presented a significantly ( P < 0.001) lower LCM CD ratio than patients with the CC genotype (1.1 ± 0.4 mcg/mL per kg/mg). CONCLUSIONS The ABCC2 1249G>A (rs2273697) and ABCC2 -24C>T (rs717620) polymorphisms can affect plasma LCM concentrations and treatment efficacy among a population of Uygur pediatric patients with epilepsy, causing these patients to become resistant to LCM. In clinical practice, ABCC2 polymorphisms should be identified before LCM treatment, and then, the dosage should be adjusted for pediatric patients with epilepsy accordingly.

Abstract
The liver plays a central role in the pharmacokinetics of drugs through drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) causes disease-specific alterations to the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) processes, including a decrease in protein expression of basolateral uptake transporters, an increase in efflux transporters, and modifications to enzyme activity. This can result in increased drug exposure and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Our goal was to predict drugs that pose increased risks for ADRs in NASH patients. Bibliographic research identified 71 drugs with reported ADRs in patients with liver disease, mainly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), 54 of which are known substrates of transporters and/or metabolizing enzymes. Since NASH is the progressive form of NAFLD but is most frequently undiagnosed, we identified other drugs at risk based on NASH-specific alterations to ADME processes. Here, we present another list of 71 drugs at risk of pharmacokinetic disruption in NASH, based on their transport and/or metabolism processes. It encompasses drugs from various pharmacological classes for which ADRs may occur when used in NASH patients, especially when eliminated through multiple pathways altered by the disease. Therefore, these results may inform clinicians regarding the selection of drugs for use in NASH patients.

Association between G2677T/A polymorphism in ABCB1 gene and the risk of drug resistance epilepsy: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis. Epilepsy Res 2022; 185:106977. [PMID: 35853334 DOI: 10.1016/j.eplepsyres.2022.106977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Epilepsy is a common serious brain condition characterized by the abnormal electrical activity of neurons. In most cases, epileptic patients respond to antiepileptic drugs. Approximately, one-third of patients prove medically intractable. The ABCB1 gene is a superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters that encode a drug-transport protein, lead to cells and organs protects and eliminates toxic agents. We performed this meta-analysis to assess the association between G2677T/A in the ABCB1 gene and the risk of drug resistance in epileptic patients. METHODS Two online libraries (PubMed and Scopus) were used to identify studies that report the relationship between G2677T/A polymorphism in the MDR1 gene and the risk of antiepileptic drug resistance. The meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.3 software. The pooled odds ratios and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random or fixed effects model according to the heterogeneity between studies. RESULTS A total of 33 eligible studies were included in this meta-analysis which 4192 patients were drug-resistant and 5079 patients were drug-responsive. As a result, a significant association was observed in overall population for the genetic model GG+GA vs AA (OR with 95 % CI = 0,56 [0.34,0.93]; P = 0.02). The subgroup ethnicity analysis showed a significant decrease in the risk of AEDs resistance in the Caucasian population. CONCLUSION In conclusion, our analysis demonstrates that G2677T/A polymorphism in the ABCB1 gene decreases the risk of drug resistance. More studies are needed in the different ethnic groups to clarify the role of polymorphism in AEDs resistance.

Genetic Analysis of CYP2C9 with Reference to Drug Response in Epilepsy Patients of Pakistan. Genet Res (Camb) 2022; 2022:1451007. [PMID: 35136381 PMCID: PMC8817865 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1451007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 12/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Epilepsy is a major global issue. Epilepsy patients are treated with AED (antiepileptic drugs). Interindividual variability in drug response has been documented in several studies. The resistance to drug response may be attributed to genetic polymorphism. The current study was undertaken to investigate the CYP2C9 gene polymorphism associated with antiepileptic drug (AED) resistance in the Pakistani population. The current study included 337 individuals including 100 control subjects, 110 drug-resistant subjects, and 127 drug responders. Genomic DNA was isolated from blood, and amplification of rs1799853 (430C > T) and rs1057910 was carried out by polymerase chain reaction. Genotypes of CYP2C9 SNPs were determined by Sanger’s sequencing. Astounding results were observed in the current study that none of the well-known reported SNPs of CYP2C9 was found in our Pakistani cohorts. However, a novel missense variant (c.374G > A) was found only in drug-resistant patients of the current study. According to the in silico analysis performed by PolyPhen-2, it was observed that this nonsynonymous substitution is likely to be pathogenic. The results of our study demonstrated that rs1799853 and rs1057910 may be involved in drug resistance in the Pakistani population. However, some other variants on CYP2C9 may play a critical role in AED resistance that needs to be explored.

Abstract
Drug-resistant epilepsy affects approximately one-third of the patients with epilepsy. The pharmacoresistant condition in epilepsy is mainly explained by six hypotheses. In addition, several experimental models have been used to understand the mechanisms involved in pharmacoresistant epilepsy and to identify novel therapies to control this condition. However, the global prevalence of this disease persists without changes. Several factors can explain this situation. First of all, the pharmacoresistant epilepsy is explained by different and independent hypotheses. Each hypothesis indicates specific mechanisms to explain the drug-resistant condition in epilepsy. However, there are different findings suggesting common mechanisms between the different hypotheses. Other important situation is that the experimental models designed for the screening of drugs with potential anticonvulsant effect do not consider factors such as age, gender, type of epilepsy, and comorbid disorders. The present review focuses on indicating the limitations for each hypothesis and the relationships among them. The relevance to consider central and peripheral phenomena associated with the drug-resistant condition in different types of epilepsy is also indicated. The necessity to establish a global hypothesis that integrates all the phenomena associated with the pharmacoresistant epilepsy is proposed. This article is part of the Special Issue "NEWroscience 2018".

Abstract
PURPOSE Accumulating evidence indicates that genetic polymorphisms in ATP-binding cassette superfamily members, such asABCC2 and ABCG2, alter responses to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs); however, this evidence is controversial and inconclusive. To provide strong evidence of the association between common polymorphisms in ABCC2 and ABCG2 and AED responses in patients with epilepsy, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A literature search of electronic databases (PubMed, EBSCO, Ovid and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure) was performed. To evaluate the association of genetic polymorphisms inABCC2 and ABCG2 and risk of AED treatment, we calculated pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) using a fixed- or random-effect model. RESULTS A significant association of theABCC2 rs717620 polymorphism with resistance to AEDs was found in the overall pooled populations (homozygous comparison: OR = 1.77, 95 % CI, 1.27-2.48; dominant model: OR = 1.23, 95 % CI, 1.06-1.43; recessive model: OR = 1.75, 95 % CI, 1.28-2.40) and Asians (dominant model: OR = 1.21, 95 % CI, 1.03-1.42; recessive model: OR = 1.80, 95 % CI, 1.30-2.50). Using a recessive model, a similarly significant association of ABCC2 rs3740066 with AED resistance was observed in the overall pooled populations (OR = 2.29, 95 % CI, 1.44-3.64) and Asians (OR = 2.53, 95 % CI, 1.56-4.08). However, ABCC2 rs2273697, ABCG2 rs2231137 and rs2231142 were not found to be associated with AED responsiveness. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests thatABCC2 rs717620 and rs3740066 are risk factors that predict responses to AEDs in epileptic patients.

Abstract
Lopinavir and ritonavir are substrates of permeability glycoprotein encoded by ABCB1. The efficacy and safety of these drugs is unknown in COVID-19 patients affected by ABCB1 genetic variability. Patients carrying one or two copies of the ABCB1 C3435T were predictively considered as risk phenotypes. It was predicted that risk phenotypes due to carrying either one or two copies of ABCB1 C3435T were highly prevalent in Europe (76.8%; 95% CI: 75-78), followed by America (67%; 95% CI: 65-69), Asia (63.5%; 95% CI: 62-65) and Africa (41.4%; 95% CI: 37-46), respectively. It is hypothesized that a considerable proportion of COVID-19 patients treated with lopinavir/ritonavir inheriting ABCB1 C3435T genetic polymorphism may be predisposed to either therapeutic failure or toxicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interindividual differences in drug response are a frequent clinical challenge partly due to variation in pharmacokinetics. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are crucial determinants of drug disposition. They are subject of gene regulation and drug-interaction; however, it is still under debate to which extend genetic variants in these transporters contribute to interindividual variability of a wide range of drugs. AREAS COVERED This review discusses the current literature on the impact of genetic variants in ABCB1, ABCG2 as well as ABCC1, ABCC2, and ABCC3 on pharmacokinetics and drug response. The aim was to evaluate if results from recent studies would increase the evidence for potential clinically relevant pharmacogenetic effects. EXPERT OPINION Although enormous efforts have been made to investigate effects of ABC transporter genotypes on drug pharmacokinetics and response, the majority of studies showed only weak if any associations. Despite few unique results, studies mostly failed to confirm earlier findings or still remained inconsistent. The impact of genetic variants on drug bioavailability is only minor and other factors regulating the transporter expression and function seem to be more critical. In our opinion, the findings on the so far investigated genetic variants in ABC efflux transporters are not suitable as predictive biomarkers.

Abstract
The mechanisms of refractory epilepsy (RE) are most likely multifactorial, involving environmental, genetic, as well as disease- and drug-related factors. We aimed to study is to investigate the possible association of two ABCB1 gene polymorphism (C3435T and C1236T) with the development of RE in Iraqi patients. One hundred patients with either generalized tonic-clonic seizures, myoclonic epilepsy, or absence epilepsy comprised of 60 patients responsive to AEDs and 40 patients who were refractory to treatment who used multi AEDs for at least one month were studied. Fifty family-unrelated age- and sex-matched healthy subjects represent the control group. ABCB1 gene fragments corresponding to two targeted polymorphisms were amplified with conventional polymerase chain reaction using specific sets of primers. Genotyping was performed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) technique. Epileptic patients refractory to AEDs showed a significantly higher frequency of CC genotypes of C3435T polymorphism than controls. Allele C was significantly higher in patients than controls and far more frequent among patients with RE. C1235T polymorphism had no significant role neither in the incidence of epilepsy nor in the AEDs resistance. The CT haplotype was more frequent among patients refractory to AEDs. In contrast, the haplotype block TT was more frequent among responsive (41.3%) than refractory patients (28.7%) (p = 0.068). The CC genotype and C allele of the C3435T polymorphism can increase the risk of RE. The haplotype block CT of C3435T and C1236T can predispose for epilepsy as well as the drug resistance.

Abstract
PURPOSE A patient was denoted to be generic brittle (GB) if they had a negative opinion about generics (e.g. prior history of a switch problem) or took the innovator brand of their most problematic anti-epileptic drug (AED) when generic was available. The aim of this hypothesis-generating study was to assess possible genetic and physiologic differences between GB and not GB patients with epilepsy. METHODS Patients (n = 148) with epilepsy were previously characterized as being either GB or not GB. Blood was collected from each subject for genotyping and physiologic testing. Genotyping for 24 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and two copy number variants (CNVs) was performed across 12 genes in each patient. Forty-four physiologic tests were conducted in each patient. Chi square analysis was performed to assess for associations between genotyping results and GB status, as well as between physiologic test results and GB status. RESULTS No SNP or CNV discriminated GB status in genetic analysis (genotype or allele frequency). Physiologic test results in this study were not associated with GB status. CONCLUSIONS Questions from neurologists and patients about generics is frequently based on applicability of generic drug standards to individual subjects. However, findings here in patients with epilepsy did not uncover genetic or physiologic reasons that explained which patients were GB and which were not GB.

[PMID: 31871496 PMCID: PMC6913308 DOI: 10.1155/2019/1343650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2019] [Accepted: 10/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Background Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders with about 30% treatment failure rate. An interindividual variations in efficacy of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) make the treatment of epilepsy challenging, which can be attributed to genetic factors such as ATP-Binding Cassette sub-family B, member1 (ABCB1) gene polymorphisms. Objective The main objective of the present study is to evaluate the association of ABCB1 C1236T, G2677T, and C3435T polymorphisms with treatment response among Tunisian epileptic patients. Materials and Methods One hundred epileptic patients, originated from north of Tunisia, were recruited and categorized into 50 drug-resistant and 50 drug-responsive patients treated with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) as per the International League Against Epilepsy. DNA of patients was extracted and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms studied using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Results The C1236T, G2677T, and C3435T polymorphisms were involved into AED resistance. Significant genotypic (C1236T TT (p ≤ 0.001); G2677T TT (p = 0.001); C3435T TT (p ≤ 0.001)) and allelic associations (C1236T T (3.650, p ≤ 0.001); G2677TT (1.801, p = 0.044); C3435T T (4.730, p ≤ 0.001)) with drug resistance epilepsy (DRE) were observed. A significant level of linkage disequilibrium (LD) was also noted between ABCB1 polymorphisms. Patients with the haplotypes CT and TT (C1236T-G2677T); GT, TC, and TT (G2677T-C3435T); CT and TT (C1236T-C3435T); CTT, TTC, TGT, and TTT (C1236T-G2677T-C3435T) were also significantly associated to AED resistance. Conclusions The response to antiepileptics seems to be modulated by TT genotypes, T alleles, and the predicted haplotypes for the tested SNPs in our population. Genetic analysis is a valuable tool for predicting treatment response and thus will contribute to personalized medicine for Tunisian epileptic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years advances in the field of pharmacogenomics have expanded the concept for more individualized treatments. Our aim is to provide literature data about the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and efficacy of antiepileptic drugs in children. METHODS Pubmed was used as the main medical database source. Only original research papers were considered. No year-of-publication restriction was placed. Quality of evidence was assessed according to American Academy of Neurology guidelines. RESULTS A total of 12 cross-sectional and case-control studies fulfilled our selection criteria. ABCB1 gene was associated with drug responsiveness in 2 out of 6 studies and ABCC2 gene in 1 out of 1 studies. SCN1A gene was also associated with seizure control in 4 out of 5 studies. Cytochrome P450 genes were found to significantly affect drug responsiveness in 2 out of 4 studies, while polymorphisms of uridinediphosphateglucuronosyltransferaseUGT2B7 gene predisposed to drug-resistance in 1 out of 2 studies. CONCLUSION Variability in genes coding for sodium channels, drug transporters and cytochrome P450 enzymes can have a significant impact on response to antiepileptic drugs. Larger prospective studies with better stratification of samples are needed to shed light on these associations.

Abstract
Epilepsy refers to a common chronic neurological disorder that affects all age groups. Unfortunately, antiepileptic drugs are ineffective in about one-third of patients. The complex interindividual variability influences the response to drug treatment rendering the therapeutic failure one of the most relevant problems in clinical practice also for increased hospitalizations and healthcare costs. Recent advances in the genetics and neurobiology of epilepsies are laying the groundwork for a new personalized medicine, focused on the reversal or avoidance of the pathophysiological effects of specific gene mutations. This could lead to a significant improvement in the efficacy and safety of treatments for epilepsy, targeting the biological mechanisms responsible for epilepsy in each individual. In this review article, we focus on the mechanism of the epilepsy pharmacoresistance and highlight the use of a systems biology approach for personalized medicine in refractory epilepsy.

Abstract
Background Epigenetics underlying refractory epilepsy is poorly understood. DNA methylation may affect gene expression in epilepsy patients without affecting DNA sequences. Herein, we investigated the association between Carbamazepine-resistant (CBZ-resistant) epilepsy and EPHX1 methylation in a northern Han Chinese population, and conducted an analysis of clinical risk factors for CBZ-resistant epilepsy. Methods Seventy-five northern Han Chinese patients participated in this research. 25 cases were CBZ-resistant epilepsy, 25 cases were CBZ-sensitive epilepsy and the remaining 25 cases were controls. Using a CpG searcher was to make a prediction of CpG islands; bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP) was applied to test the methylation of EPHX1. We then did statistical analysis between clinical parameters and EPHX1 methylation. Results There was no difference between CBZ-resistant patients, CBZ-sensitive patients and healthy controls in matched age and gender. However, a significant difference of methylation levels located in NC_000001.11 (225,806,929.....225807108) of the EPHX1 promoter was found in CBZ-resistant patients, which was much higher than CBZ-sensitive and controls. Additionally, there was a significant positive correlation between seizure frequency, disease course and EPHX1 methylation in CBZ-resistant group. Conclusion Methylation levels in EPHX1 promoter associated with CBZ-resistant epilepsy significantly. EPHX1 methylation may be the potential marker for CBZ resistance prior to the CBZ therapy and potential target for treatments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Taxanes and anthracyclines are widely used in the treatment of breast cancer, although the benefit is limited to a proportion of patients and predictive biomarkers for clinical outcome remain elusive. PATIENTS AND METHODS We carried out a pharmacogenetic study in 181 patients with locally advanced breast cancer enrolled in a phase 2 randomized clinical trial (NCT00123929), where patients were randomly assigned to receive neoadjuvant single-agent docetaxel 100 mg/m(2) (n=84) or doxorubicin 75 mg/m(2) (n=97). We studied the association of 226 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 15 key drug biotransformation genes with neoadjuvant pathological tumor response residual cancer burden index to docetaxel and to doxorubicin. RESULTS We identified a significant association for rs162561, an intronic SNP located in the cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 (CYP1B1) gene, with tumor response in patients treated with single-agent docetaxel (dominant model: β=1.02, 95% confidence interval=0.49-1.55; P=1.77×10(-4)), and for rs717620, an SNP located in the promoter of the ATP-binding cassette subfamily C member 2 (ABCC2) gene, in patients treated with neoadjuvant doxorubicin (recessive model: β=1.67; 95% confidence interval=0.26-3.11; P=0.02). CONCLUSION We identified two polymorphisms in CYP1B1 and ABCC2 associated with tumor pathological response following docetaxel or doxorubicin neoadjuvant monotherapy, respectively. Although further validation is required, these variants could be potential predictive genetic markers for treatment outcome in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although novel antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) have been recently released, the issue of drug resistance in epileptic patients remains unsolved and largely unpredictable. Areas covered: We aim to assess the clinical impact of genetic variations that may influence the efficacy of medical treatment in epilepsy patients. Indeed, many genes, including genes encoding drug transporters (ABCB1), drug targets (SCN1A), drug-metabolizing enzymes (CYP2C9, CYP2C19), and human leucocyte antigen (HLA) proteins, may regulate the mechanisms of drug resistance in epilepsy. This review specifically focuses on the ABC genes, which encode multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) and may reduce the blood-brain barrier penetration of anticonvulsant AEDs. Expert opinion: Drug resistance remains a crucial problem in epilepsy patients. Pharmacogenomic studies may improve our understanding of drug responses and drug resistance by exploring the impact of gene variants and predicting drug responses and tolerability.

In Vitro Assessment of the Effect of Antiepileptic Drugs on Expression and Function of ABC Transporters and Their Interactions with ABCC2. Molecules 2017; 22:molecules22101484.

Abstract
ABC transporters have a significant role in drug disposition and response and various studies have implicated their involvement in epilepsy pharmacoresistance. Since genetic studies till now are inconclusive, we thought of investigating the role of xenobiotics as transcriptional modulators of ABC transporters. Here, we investigated the effect of six antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) viz. phenytoin, carbamazepine, valproate, lamotrigine, topiramate and levetiracetam, on the expression and function of ABCB1, ABCC1, ABCC2 and ABCG2 in Caco2 and HepG2 cell lines through real time PCR, western blot and functional activity assays. Further, the interaction of AEDs with maximally induced ABCC2 was studied. Carbamazepine caused a significant induction in expression of ABCB1 and ABCC2 in HepG2 and Caco2 cells, both at the transcript and protein level, together with increased functional activity. Valproate caused a significant increase in the expression and functional activity of ABCB1 in HepG2 only. No significant effect of phenytoin, lamotrigine, topiramate and levetiracetam on the transporters under study was observed in either of the cell lines. We demonstrated the interaction of carbamazepine and valproate with ABCC2 with ATPase and 5,6-carboxyfluorescein inhibition assays. Thus, altered functionality of ABCB1 and ABCC2 can affect the disposition and bioavailability of administered drugs, interfering with AED therapy.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder that affects over 70 million people worldwide. Despite the recent introduction of new antiseizure drugs (ASDs), about one-third of patients with epilepsy have seizures refractory to pharmacotherapy. Early identification of patients who will become refractory to ASDs could help direct such patients to appropriate non-pharmacological treatment, but the complexity in the temporal patterns of epilepsy could make such identification difficult. The target hypothesis and transporter hypothesis are the most cited theories trying to explain refractory epilepsy, but neither theory alone fully explains the neurobiological basis of pharmacoresistance. This review summarizes evidence for and against several major theories, including the pharmacokinetic hypothesis, neural network hypothesis, intrinsic severity hypothesis, gene variant hypothesis, target hypothesis, and transporter hypothesis. The discussion is mainly focused on the transporter hypothesis, where clinical and experimental data are discussed on multidrug transporter overexpression, substrate profiles of ASDs, mechanism of transporter upregulation, polymorphisms of transporters, and the use of transporter inhibitors. Finally, future perspectives are presented for the improvement of current hypotheses and the development of treatment strategies as guided by the current understanding of refractory epilepsy.

Abstract
Background Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are effective medications available for epilepsy. However, many patients do not respond to this treatment and become resistant. Genetic polymorphisms may be involved in the variation of AEDs response. Therefore, we conducted an updated systematic review and a meta-analysis to investigate the contribution of the genetic profile on epilepsy drug resistance. Methods We proceeded to the selection of eligible studies related to the associations of polymorphisms with resistance to AEDs therapy in epilepsy, published from January 1980 until November 2016, using Pubmed and Cochrane Library databases. The association analysis was based on pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results From 640 articles, we retained 13 articles to evaluate the relationship between ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 1 (ABCB1) C3435T polymorphism and AEDs responsiveness in a total of 454 epileptic AEDs-resistant cases and 282 AEDs-responsive cases. We found a significant association with an OR of 1.877, 95% CI 1.213–2.905. Subanalysis by genotype model showed a more significant association between the recessive model of ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism (TT vs. CC) and the risk of AEDs resistance with an OR of 2.375, 95% CI 1.775–3.178 than in the dominant one (CC vs. TT) with an OR of 1.686, 95% CI 0.877–3.242. Conclusion Our results indicate that ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism, especially TT genotype, plays an important role in refractory epilepsy. As genetic screening of this genotype may be useful to predict AEDs response before starting the treatment, further investigations should validate the association.

Abstract
Genetic variation can influence response to antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment through various effector processes. Metabolism of many AEDs is mediated by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) family; some of the CYPs have allelic variants that may affect serum AED concentrations. ‘Precision medicine’ focuses on the identification of an underlying genetic aetiology allowing personalised therapeutic choices. Certain human leukocyte antigen, HLA, alleles are associated with an increased risk of idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions. New results are emerging from large-scale multinational efforts, likely imminently to add knowledge of value from a pharmacogenetic perspective.
There is high variability in the response to antiepileptic treatment across people with epilepsy. Genetic factors significantly contribute to such variability. Recent advances in the genetics and neurobiology of the epilepsies are establishing the basis for a new era in the treatment of epilepsy, focused on each individual and their specific epilepsy. Variation in response to antiepileptic drug treatment may arise from genetic variation in a range of gene categories, including genes affecting drug pharmacokinetics, and drug pharmacodynamics, but also genes held to actually cause the epilepsy itself. From a purely pharmacogenetic perspective, there are few robust genetic findings with established evidence in epilepsy. Many findings are still controversial with anecdotal or less secure evidence and need further validation, e.g. variation in genes for transporter systems and antiepileptic drug targets. The increasing use of genetic sequencing and the results of large-scale collaborative projects may soon expand the established evidence. Precision medicine treatments represent a growing area of interest, focussing on reversing or circumventing the pathophysiological effects of specific gene mutations. This could lead to a dramatic improvement of the effectiveness and safety of epilepsy treatments, by targeting the biological mechanisms responsible for epilepsy in each specific individual. Whilst much has been written about epilepsy pharmacogenetics, there does now seem to be building momentum that promises to deliver results of use in clinic.

Abstract
Genetic factors contribute to the high interindividual variability in response to antiepileptic drugs. However, most genetic markers identified to date have limited sensitivity and specificity, and the value of genetic testing in guiding antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy is limited. The best defined indication for testing relates to HLA-B*15:02 genotyping to identify those individuals of South Asian ethnicity who are at high risk for developing serious adverse cutaneous reactions to carbamazepine. The indication for HLA-A*31:01 testing to identify individuals at risk for skin reactions from carbamazepine, or for CYP2C9 genotyping to identify individuals at risk for serious skin reactions from phenytoin is less compelling. The use of genetic testing to guide epilepsy treatment is likely to increase in the future, as better understanding of the function of epilepsy genes will permit the application of precision medicine targeting the biological mechanisms responsible for epilepsy in the specific individual.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential impact of SCN1A, SCN2A and ABCC2 gene polymorphisms on the response to antiepileptic drugs in Chinese Han patients with epilepsy. PATIENTS & METHODS Genetic polymorphisms in the candidate genes were detected in 453 Chinese epileptic patients by high-resolution melting curve and TaqMan methods. RESULTS The SCN1A IVS5-91G>A AA genotype and the ABCC2 c.1249G>A GA genotype were significantly associated with carbamazepine/oxcarbamazepine (CBZ/OXC)-resistant epilepsy (p =0.002 and p = 0.036, respectively). The frequencies of haplotypes AA (SCN1A gene) and AC (ABCC2 gene) in drug-resistant patients were significantly higher than those in responsive patients (p = 0.002 and p = 0.005, respectively). CONCLUSION This study suggested that SCN1A and ABCC2 polymorphisms may be associated with the response to CBZ/OXC in the Chinese Han population, indicating that they could serve as predictors of drug response.

Abstract
AIM To examine the relevance of ABCC2 polymorphisms to drug responsiveness in epilepsy cohorts from the Asia Pacific region. MATERIALS & METHODS The rs2273697 and rs3740066 polymorphisms were genotyped in 2056 Malaysian (55%), Hong Kong (32%) and Japanese (13%) epilepsy patients. RESULTS Significant allele association of rs2273697 was observed in Chinese females with epilepsy, Malaysian Chinese patients with generalized seizure and Japanese patients with partial seizure for the AA versus GG genotype model and Malaysian Chinese patients with generalized seizure for the GA versus GG and autosomal dominant models. Significant association of the rs3740066 allele was observed in Malaysian females of Malay origin with cryptogenic epilepsy and Chinese patients with partial seizure and for genotypes in Malay patients with cryptogenic epilepsy for the CT versus CC and autosomal dominant genotype models. Significant results were observed for all haplotypes, but following Bonferroni correction, only the GT haplotype in Chinese patients remained significant. CONCLUSION This study suggests that the GT haplotype might be a risk factor for resistance to medication in Chinese patients.

Abstract
Objective Previous studies reported the associations between the ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1, also known as MDR1) polymorphisms and their haplotypes with risk of response to antiepileptic drugs in epilepsy, however, the results were inconclusive. Methods The Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI and Chinese Biomedicine databases were searched up to July 15, 2014. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a fixed-effects or random-effects model based on heterogeneity tests. Meta-regression and Galbraith plot analysis were carried out to explore the possible heterogeneity. Results A total of 57 studies involving 12407 patients (6083 drug-resistant and 6324 drug-responsive patients with epilepsy) were included in the pooled-analysis. For all three polymorphisms (C3435T, G2677T/A, and C1236T), we observed a wide spectrum of minor allele frequencies across different ethnicities. A significantly decreased risk of AEDs resistance was observed in Caucasian patients with T allele of C3435T variant, which was still significant after adjusted by multiple testing corrections (T vs C: OR=0.83, 95%CI=0.71-0.96, p=0.01). However, no significant association was observed between the other two variants and AEDs resistance. Of their haplotypes in ABCB1 gene (all studies were in Indians and Asians), no significant association was observed with AEDs resistance. Moreover, sensitivity and Cumulative analysis showed that the results of this meta-analysis were stable. Conclusion In summary, this meta-analysis demonstrated that effect of C3435T variant on risk of AEDs resistance was ethnicity-dependent, which was significant in Caucasians. Additionally, further studies in different ethnic groups are warranted to clarify possible roles of haplotypes in ABCB1 gene in AEDs resistance, especially in Caucasians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to assess the role of C3435T polymorphism in drug-resistance in epilepsy by a meta-analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Databases were obtained from the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, Science Direct database, CNKI, and Wanfang up to October 2014. All the case-control association studies evaluating the role of ABCB1 C3435T in pharmacoresistance to anti-epileptic drug (AED) were identified. RevMan 5.0 software was utilized to perform quantitative analyses in an allele model (C vs. T) and a genotype model (CC vs. CT+TT). RESULTS From the 189 potential studies, we included 28 articles for the meta-analysis, including 30 independent case-control studies involving 4124 drug-resistant epileptic patients and 4480 epileptic patients for whom drug treatment was effective. We excluded 164 studies because of duplication, lack of genotype data, and non-clinical research. We found that C3435T polymorphism was not significantly associated with drug resistance in epilepsy, either in allele model (C vs. T: OR=1.07; 95%CI: 0.95-1.19) or in genotype model (CC vs. CT+TT: OR=1.05; 95%CI: 0.89-1.24, P=0.55). Subgroup analyses suggested that in Caucasian populations there are significant differences between resistance group (NR) and control group (R) in both allele model (C vs. T: OR=1.09; 95%CI: 1.00-1.18, P=0.05) and genotype model (CC vs. CT+TT: OR=1.20; 95%CI: 1.04-1.40, P=0.01). However, we did not find this association in Asian populations. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism may be a genetic marker for drug resistance in epilepsy in Caucasian populations.

Abstract
ABCC2 gene polymorphisms have been shown to be associated with drug-resistant epilepsy. However, the published results were controversial. To comprehensively re-evaluate the association between ABCC2 gene polymorphisms and drug-resistant epilepsy in Asian, we carried out this meta-analysis, which included eight related studies. Studies were selected using PUBMED, Web of science, the Cochrane database of system reviews and Embase. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess the association. Studies with 1302 drug-resistant cases and 1563 drug-sensitive controls were included. No significant association was detected by combined analyses for C-24T, G-1774delG, C3972T and G2934A. However, significant association was found in recessive model for G1249A polymorphism (GG vs. GA+AA: OR=0.72, 95%CI=0.53-0.96, P=0.03), indicating the recessive model of G1249A in MRP2/ABCC2 might decrease the risk of drug resistance in Asian epilepsy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters act as translocators of numerous substrates across extracellular and intracellular membranes, thereby contributing to bioavailability and consequently therapy response. Genetic polymorphisms are considered as critical determinants of expression level or activity and subsequently response to selected drugs. AREAS COVERED Here the influence of polymorphisms of the prominent ABC transporters P-glycoprotein (MDR1, ABCB1), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2) and the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 2 (ABCC2) as well as MRP3 (ABCC3) on the pharmacokinetic of drugs and associated consequences on therapy response and clinical outcome is discussed. EXPERT OPINION ABC transporter genetic variants were assumed to affect interindividual differences in pharmacokinetics and subsequently clinical response. However, decades of medical research have not yielded in distinct and unconfined reproducible outcomes. Despite some unique results, the majority were inconsistent and dependent on the analyzed cohort or study design. Therefore, variability of bioavailability and drug response may be attributed only by a small amount to polymorphisms in transporter genes, whereas transcriptional regulation or post-transcriptional modification seems to be more critical. In our opinion, currently identified genetic variants of ABC efflux transporters can give some hints on the role of transporters at interfaces but are less suitable as biomarkers to predict therapeutic outcome.

Abstract
The association between the C3435T polymorphism in the MDR1 gene and refractory epilepsy remains controversial. The association appears to be influenced by ethnicity and region. We have performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the link between the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and refractory epilepsy in the Chinese population. We searched the Cochrane Library, MIDLINE, EMBASE, CBM disc, CNKI, VIP, and WANFANG databases for literature published through August 2013 for case-control studies that evaluated the association between the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and refractory epilepsy. Twenty-one case-control studies involving 4269 patients (1863 cases in the group with drug-resistant epilepsy and 2406 in the group with drug-responsive epilepsy) were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. The analysis showed that there were significantly more cases with the MDR1 3435 CC genotype in the group with drug-resistant epilepsy than in the group with drug-responsive epilepsy [odds ratio (OR)=1.50, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.09-2.06, P=0.01]. In a subanalysis of patients from the southern regions of China, the correlation was not significant [odds ratio (OR)=1.2, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.89-1.64, P=0.24]. The relationship established in a subset of the Chinese population between the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and refractory epilepsy will guide epilepsy treatment and development of new AEDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As important mediators of solute transport at the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers, ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters (including ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2), impact the bioavailability of drugs and endogenous substrates in the brain. While several ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified, their impact on outcome after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is unknown. HYPOTHESIS ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2 SNPs are associated with Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score after TBI. METHODS DNA samples from 305 adult patients with severe TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale, GCS score ≤ 8) were genotyped for tagging SNPs of ABCB1 (rs1045642; rs1128503), ABCC1 (rs212093; rs35621; rs4148382), and ABCC2 (rs2273697). For each SNP, patients were dichotomized based on presence of variant allele for multivariate analysis to determine associations with GOS assigned at 6 months adjusting for GCS, Injury Severity score, age, and patient sex. RESULTS For ABCB1 rs1045642, patients homozygous for the T allele were less likely to be assigned poor outcome versus those possessing the C allele [CT/CC; odds of unfavorable GOS = 0.71(0.55-0.92)]. For ABCC1 rs4148382, patients homozygous for the G allele were less likely to be assigned poor outcome versus those possessing the A allele [AG/AA; odds of unfavorable GOS = 0.73(0.55-0.98)]. CONCLUSIONS In this single-center study, patients homozygous for the T allele of ABCB1 rs1045642 or the G allele of ABCC1 rs4148382 were found to have better outcome after severe TBI. Further study is necessary to replicate these very preliminary findings and to determine whether these associations are due to central nervous system bioavailability of ABC transporter drug substrates commonly used in the management of TBI, brain efflux of endogenous solutes, or both.

Abstract
At the blood-brain barrier, overexpression of the drug efflux transporter ABCC2 (also known as MRP2) has been proposed as a mechanism for impaired carbamazepine (CBZ) treatment response in epilepsy. However, investigation of the impact of ABCC2 polymorphisms on CBZ treatment efficacy has produced conflicting and inconclusive results. A series of in vitro cell efflux and plasma membrane vesicle uptake assays were undertaken to investigate whether CBZ was an ABCC2 substrate. In addition, the effect of three common ABCC2 polymorphisms, -24C>T, c.1249G>A and c.3972C>T, on the efficacy of CBZ in epilepsy (assessed using the clinical end points time to first seizure and time to 12-month remission from the SANAD (Standard and New Antiepileptic Drugs) trial) was determined. CBZ was found not to be a substrate for human ABCC2 in vitro. Clinically, no significant association was observed for the ABCC2 genetic variants and CBZ treatment outcomes. This comprehensive analysis does not support a role for ABCC2 in CBZ treatment efficacy.

Abstract
AIMS The G1249A variant of the multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (ABCC2) gene may be associated with the development of antiepileptic drug (AED) resistance. Although numerous studies have investigated the association between the G1249A variant and the risk of drug resistance in epilepsy, the results of these studies have been inconclusive. To assess the role of G1249A polymorphism in drug resistance in epilepsy, a meta-analysis was performed. MATERIALS AND METHODS We systematically reviewed relevant studies retrieved by the PubMed and Embase. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated based on the date extracted from the studies to evaluate the strength of association. We also analyzed the heterogeneity and sensitivity of each report and the publication bias of the studies. RESULTS A total of 6 published studies, involving 2213 patients (1100 patients with drug-resistant epilepsy and 1113 controls with drug-responsive epilepsy) were reviewed in the present meta-analysis. The overall results indicated that the variant genotypes were associated with a significantly decreased risk of AED resistance (AA vs. GG: OR=0.372, 95% CI=0.182-0.762; recessive model: OR=0.399, 95% CI=0.200-0.795) (fixed-effects model). A stratified analysis by ethnicity showed similar findings for Caucasians in an additive model (A vs. G: OR=0.700, 95% CI=0.494-0.992). CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis suggests that the ABCC2 G1249A polymorphism is significantly associated with a decreased risk of AED resistance. However, further functional investigations are warranted to validate the association.

Abstract
AIMS The causes of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) are still uncertain now. Some studies found that the human potassium channel, subfamily T, member 1 (KCNT1) is the candidate gene causing malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy and autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy which are all rare genetic generalized epilepsies. The aims of this study were going to evaluate the association between KCNT1 common variations and the susceptibility and drug resistance of genetic generalized epilepsies in Chinese population. METHODS The allele-specific MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry method was used to assess 17 tagSNPs (tagged single-nucleotide polymorphisms) of KCNT1 in 284 healthy Chinese controls and 483 Chinese GGEs patients including 279 anti-epileptic drug-responsive patients and 204 drug-resistant patients. RESULTS Genotype distributions of all the selected tagSNPs were consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in GGEs and healthy controls. None of the all 17 tagSNPs alleles were found to be related with the susceptibility and drug resistance of genetic generalized epilepsies. The frequencies of haplotype 5 and haplotype 1 were significantly lower in GGEs than that in healthy controls (2% vs. 4%, OR = 0.47 [0.27-0.94], P = 0.03) and obviously higher in drug-resistant patients than that in drug-response patients (6% vs. 3%, OR = 2.56 [1.23-5.35], P = 0.01). However, after the correction of multiple comparisons with Bonferroni's method, we found that the above two haplotypes were not associated with the susceptibility and drug resistance in GGEs and healthy controls. CONCLUSION This gene-wide tagging study revealed no association between KCNT1 17 common variations and susceptibility of GGEs or AEDs (anti-epileptic drugs) efficacy of genetic generalized epilepsies in Chinese population.

Abstract
AIM A number of studies have demonstrated that ABCB1 and BCRP (ABCG2) actively transport Aβ. We aimed to investigate the association of genetic variants of selected multidrug transporters with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in histopathologically confirmed AD cases and controls. MATERIALS & METHODS DNA from brain tissue of 71 AD cases with Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD) neuropathological stages B/C and 81 controls was genotyped for selected variants in ABCA1, ABCA7, ABCB1, ABCC2 and ABCG2. In addition, the APOE4 status was analyzed. RESULTS The novel ABCA7 SNP, rs3752246, tended to be associated with AD in our study. Variants in ABCB1 were significantly less frequent in AD cases older than 65 years of age and among females. This association of ABCB1 2677G>T (rs2032582) was more pronounced in APOE4-negative cases (p = 0.005). However, only ABCC2 3972C>T (rs3740066) was significantly associated with AD risk after logistic regression analysis including all variants. Other transporters showed a lack of association. CONCLUSION Our results support the hypothesis that ABCB1 and possibly other ABC-transporters are involved in the process of Aβ accumulation in the aging brain and may modulate the risk for AD in an allele-specific manner, and thus might represent a new target for prevention and treatment of AD.

Abstract
We describe here the case of a 60-year old male patient treated for an extensive local progression of a pleiomorphic sarcoma on the right tibial crest with second-line trabectedin. Two cycles were administrated before a major liver toxicity was retrieved, with both cytolytic and cholestatic hepatitis quickly associated with irreversible jaundice. The radiological, histological, chemistry and pharmacogenetic investigations led us to diagnose chronic hepatobiliary toxicity with portal fibrosis, cholangiolitis damages and chronic hepatopathy. The patient had a deficient variant genotype of ABCC2 (c.-24TT, c.4488CT and c.4544GA), which has been suggested to play a role in excretion of toxic metabolites of trabectedin. This case report is, to our knowledge, the first description of trabectedin‘s irreversible liver toxicity in a human patient. Supported by a thorough review of the literature, this hepatitis is thought to have resulted from a multihit process involving genetic variants of ABC proteins and comedication.

Abstract
This review provides an overview of the knowledge on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and its role as a membrane transporter in drug resistance in epilepsy and drug interactions. Overexpression of P-gp, encoded by the ABCB1 gene, is involved in resistance to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), limits gastrointestinal absorption and brain access of AEDs. Although several association studies on ABCB1 gene with drug disposition and disease susceptibility are completed to date, the data remain unclear and incongruous. Although the literature describes other multidrug resistance transporters, P-gp is the main extensively studied drug efflux transporter in epilepsy.

Abstract
Drug-resistant epilepsies still remain one of the most profound problems of contemporary epileptology. Several mechanisms of drug resistance are possible; among them, genetic factors have a prominent place. Much importance is attached to genes, which encode enzymes that metabolize antiepileptic drugs CYP 3A, which belong to the family of cytochromes P450 and the genome of multidrug resistance, such as multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) that expresses P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a drug transporter protein. The aim of the study was to assess the relation between polymorphism of gene CYP3A5 and polymorphism C3435T of MDR1 gene with the occurrence of focal, drug-resistant epilepsy in children and youths up to 18 years of age. The study comprised 85 patients, and their age range was from 33 months to 18 years of age, suffering from epilepsy, partly responding well to treatment, partly drug resistant. The polymorphism of both genes has been analysed using the PCR-RFLP method. The study failed to corroborate association between polymorphism CYP3A5∗3 and C3435T polymorphism in MDR1 gene and pharmacoresistant epilepsy. The results of our research do not confirm the prognostic value of the polymorphisms examined in the prognostication of drug resistance in epilepsies.

Linkage disequilibrium between polymorphisms of ABCB1 and ABCC2 to predict the treatment outcome of Malaysians with complex partial seizures on treatment with carbamazepine mono-therapy at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital. PLoS One 2013; 8:e64827.

Abstract
PURPOSE Carbamazepine (CBZ) is used as the first line of treatment of Complex Partial Seizures (CPS) in the Epilepsy Clinic, Neurology Department of Kuala Lumpur Hospital (KLH). More than 30% of the patients remain drug resistant to CBZ mono-therapy. CBZ is transported by the P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The P-gp encoded by the ABCB1 and ABCC2 genes are expressed in drug resistant patients with epilepsy. A few studies have shown significant association between CBZ resistant epilepsy and Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) with adjacent polymorphisms of these genes. Our study is aimed at determining the correlation between patients' response to CBZ mono-therapy to Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms G2677T and C3435T of the ABCB1 gene as well as G1249A and -24C>T of the ABCC2 gene. METHOD 314 patients with CPS were recruited from the Neurology Department of the KLH based on stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria, of whom 152 were responders and the other 162 were non-responders. DNA was extracted from their blood samples and Taqman technology for allelic discrimination was performed. Results were described as genotype frequencies. The SHEsis analysis platform was used to calculate linkage disequilibrium index and infer haplotype frequencies. Haploview was used to do permutation test to obtain a corrected p-value. RESULTS Resistance to treatment with CBZ mono-therapy was significantly associated with the 2677TT and the 3435TT genotypes while it was not significantly associated with the G1249A and -24C>T polymorphisms. The GCGC haplotype combination of the 2677G>T, 3435C>T, 1249G>A and -24C>T respectively was found to be extremely significant (p = 1.10e-20) with good drug response to CBZ mono-therapy. CONCLUSION Linkage disequilibrium between the 2677G>T, 3435C>T, 1249G>A and -24C>T SNPs may be used as a reliable screening marker to determine the treatment outcome of CBZ mono-therapy with CPS irrespective of race or gender.

Abstract
This paper reviews the impact of genetic variability of drug metabolizing enzymes, transporters, receptors, and pathways involved in chronic pain perception on the efficacy and safety of analgesics and other drugs used for chronic pain treatment. Several candidate genes have been identified in the literature, while there is usually only limited clinical evidence substantiating for the penetration of the testing for these candidate biomarkers into the clinical practice. Further, the pain-perception regulation and modulation are still not fully understood, and thus more complex knowledge of genetic and epigenetic background for analgesia will be needed prior to the clinical use of the candidate genetic biomarkers.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of genetic variants in the major genes involved in carbamazepine (CBZ) metabolism and transport with its pharmacokinetics in epilepsy patients. MATERIALS & METHODS Twenty-five SNPs within seven CBZ pathway genes, namely CYP3A4, CYP3A5, EPHX1, NR1I2, UGT2B7, ABCB1 and ABCC2, were analyzed for association with CBZ pharmacokinetics in 90 epilepsy patients. RESULTS The CYP3A4*1B SNP was significantly associated with CBZ clearance. Significant association of EPHX1 SNPs was observed with greater carbamazepine-10,11-trans dihydrodiol:carbamazepine 10-11 epoxide ratios. Among drug transporters, ABCB1 and ABCC2 SNPs were significantly associated with altered CBZ clearance. CONCLUSION SNPs within CBZ pathway genes contribute to interpatient variation in CBZ pharmacokinetics and might contribute to pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Although our results need further clinical validation in a larger patient cohort, they indicate that genetic variation in CBZ pathway genes could influence its pharmacokinetics, and hence would have clinical significance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily of transporters is known to efflux antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) primarily in the brain, gastrointestinal tract, liver, and kidneys. In addition, they are also known to be involved in estrogen disposition and may modulate seizure susceptibility and drug response. The objective of the present study was to investigate the role of genetic variants from ABC transporters in seizure control in epilepsy patients treated with monotherapy of first-line AEDs for 12 months. METHODS On the basis of gene coverage and functional significance, a total of 98 single nucleotide polymorphisms from ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCC2 were genotyped in 400 patients from North India. Of these, 216 patients were eligible for therapeutic assessment. Genetic variants were compared between the 'no-seizures' and the 'recurrent-seizures' groups. Bonferroni corrections for multiple comparisons and adjustment for covariates were performed before assessment of associations. RESULTS Functionally relevant promoter polymorphisms from ABCC2: c.-1549G>A and c.-1019A>G either considered alone or in haplotype and diplotype combinations were observed for a significant association with seizure control in women (odds ratio>3.5, P<10, power>95%). Further, low protein-expressing CGT and TGT (c.-24C>T, c.1249G>A, c.3972C>T) haplotypes were always observed to be present in combination with the AG (c.-1549G>A, c.-1019A>G) haplotype that was over-represented in women with 'no seizures'. CONCLUSION The distribution of the associated variants supports the involvement of ABCC2 in controlling seizures in women possibly by lowering of its expression. The biological basis of this finding could be an altered interaction of ABCC2 with AEDs and estrogens. These results necessitate replication in a larger pool of patients.

Abstract
Human multidrug resistance-related protein 2 (MRP2, encoded by ABCC2) is involved in the transport of anionic drugs such as methotrexate (MTX). We prospectively investigated the influence of four common ABCC2 genetic variants (rs717620, rs2273697, rs8187694 and rs8187710) on MTX pharmacokinetics parameters. MTX concentrations were monitored in 50 patients with lymphoid malignancy (27 males; mean age: 53±17 years) receiving high-dose MTX (5.13±1.88 g m(-)(2) in a 4-h perfusion). The population pharmacokinetics modelling showed that ABCC2 -24T allele (rs717620) had a combined influence on both MTX elimination and distribution. The MTX clearance and distribution volume were significantly higher in carriers of at least one copy of the -24T allele as compared with noncarriers: 8.6±2.2 vs 6.7± 2.5 l h(-1), P<0.01 and 30.7±7.7 vs 22.1±8.8 l, P<0.001, respectively. Consequently, -24T allele carriers were more prone to reach MTX nontoxic levels, 48 h after administration.
