Abstract
BACKGROUND On-clopidogrel platelet reactivity (PR) is associated with the risk of thrombotic or bleeding event in selected populations of high-risk patients. PR is a highly heritable phenotype and a few variants of cytochrome genes, essentially CYP2C19, are associated with PR but only explain 5% to 12% of the variability. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to delineate genetic determinants of on-clopidogrel PR using high-throughput sequencing. METHODS We performed a whole exome sequencing of 96 low- and matched high-PR patients in a discovery cohort. Exomes from genes with variants significantly associated with PR were sequenced in 96 low- and matched high-PR patients from an independent replication cohort. RESULTS We identified 585 variants in 417 genes with an adjusted P value < .05. In the replication cohort, all top variants including CYP2C8, CYP2C18, and CYP2C19 from the discovery population were found again. An original network analysis identified several candidate genes of potential interest such as a regulator of PI3K, a key actor in the downstream signaling pathway of the P2Y12 receptor. CONCLUSION This study emphasizes the role of CYP-related genes as major regulators of clopidogrel response, including the poorly investigated CYP2C8 and CYP2C18.

Abstract
In healthy subjects, platelet hyperreactivity is a global phenomenon--as opposed to agonist-specific--and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation (EPA) is a reliable marker of this phenotype. Few data are available on platelet reactivity and the relationship between EPA and aggregation induced by other agonists in cardiovascular patients. It was the objective of this study to characterise platelet reactivity in stable cardiovascular patients treated with aspirin and to derive a composite index integrating several aggregation pathways, suitable for selecting patients with extreme phenotypes for further proteomics analysis. Platelet reactivity to agonists was assessed in 110 patients twice, two weeks apart. Factorial analysis was used to determine whether the results obtained with the different agonists could be summarised in a single composite index. EPA correlated with the aggregation values obtained with each of the other agonists, with correlation coefficients of 0.44 to 0.55 (p < 0.001). We constructed a composite "platelet reactivity" index that included 60% of the information provided by each agonist. The results obtained at the first patient visit were consistent with those obtained at the second visit (r = 0.78, p<0.01). No clinical or biological parameters correlated with the composite index. The extreme phenotypes of six selected subjects were confirmed 12 months after the second visit. In conclusion, platelet reactivity in aspirin-treated cardiovascular patients is a global phenomenon that can be summarised by a composite index based on the aggregation responses to various agonists and integrating several activation pathways. This index is not dependent on clinical or biological variables, suggesting that genetic factors regulate platelet reactivity in these patients.
