Abstract
Aim. The aim of this work was to study the occurrence of the rs776746 allelic variant of the CYP3A5 gene and its effect on heart rate (HR) when using bisoprolol in patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Materials and methods. The study included patients with ACS who were prescribed bisoprolol for clinical indications. All patients underwent molecular genetic testing. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the therapy with bisoprolol, all patients underwent Holter electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoting on days 10, the following parameters were assessed: minimum, average, maximum heart rate and heart rate during an exercise test. The stress test was performed as a ladder test.Results. The study involved 97 patients (63,5±10,5 years), including 60 men and 37 women. The frequency of occurrence of the desired alleles of the CYP3A5 gene was: CYP3A5*3 - 93%, and CYP3A5*1 - 7%, which corresponds to its prevalence in the European population. 84 carriers of the CYP3A5*3*3 genotype (87%), 12 heterozygous carriers of the *1 allele (12%) and one patient with the *1*1 genotype (1%) were identified. In order to search for differences in the effects of bisoprolol depending on the genetically predetermined activity of CYP3A5, we divided the general group of patients into two subgroups: subgroup 1 (CYP3A5*3*3), represented by carriers of the genotype associated with the synthesis of the inactive form of CYP3A5, and subgroup 2 (CYP3A5*1*3 and CYP3A5*1*1), represented by carriers of at least one allele encoding the synthesis of a fully functional protein CYP3A5, coupled with an increased metabolic rate. Patients did not differ in clinical and demographic characteristics. By the time of daily ECG monitoring, both groups reached comparable heart rate values. In carriers of at least one CYP3A5*1 allele (n = 13), associated with an increased metabolic rate, the daily dose of bisoprolol on the 10th day of hospitalization was significantly higher (p <0.05). The only carrier of the homozygous CYP3A5 *1*1 variant receives bisoprolol at a daily dose of 10 mg. Taking into account the close to significant differences in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients in the groups with the studied genetic variants, and the known eliminating role of the kidneys for bisoprolol, a linear regression model was built with the inclusion of factors that could affect the dose of bisoprolol: GFR, functional class of chronic heart failure, gender, age, number of simultaneously assigned CYP3A5 substrates. Of the parameters listed, only the CYP3A5 genotype significantly predicted the dose of bisoprolol (F=8.5; p<0.005; R2=0.096).Conclusion. In this study, it was demonstrated for the first time that patients with different genetic variants of CYP3A5, in particular with respect to the rs776746 polymorphism, may differ in individual requirements for the dose of bisoprolol.

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
Pharmacogenomic studies in epilepsy are justified by the high prevalence rate of this disease and the high cost of its treatment, frequent drug resistance, different response to the drug, the possibility of using reliable methods to assess the control of seizures and side effects of antiepileptic drugs. Candidate genes encode proteins involved in pharmacokinetic processes (drug transporters, metabolizing enzymes), pharmacodynamic processes (receptors, ion channels, enzymes, regulatory proteins, secondary messengers) and drug hypersensitivity (immune factors). This article provides an overview of the literature on the influence of genetic factors on treatment in epilepsy.

Factors associated with fluoxetine and norfluoxetine plasma concentrations and clinical response in Mexican patients with mental disorders. Pharmacol Res Perspect 2021; 9:e00864. [PMID: 34523245 PMCID: PMC8441053 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Over the last few years, fluoxetine has been one of the most prescribed medications for the treatment of diverse psychiatric conditions in Mexico. Fluoxetine therapeutic effect is consequence of the joint action of the parent drug and its active metabolite, norfluoxetine. However, the clinical efficacy of fluoxetine, can be affected due to diverse factors, such as drug-drug interactions and the large interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics of this drug. The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with variability in plasma concentrations of fluoxetine and norfluoxetine and its association with the therapeutic response. Fluoxetine and norfluoxetine plasma concentrations were quantified by liquid chromatography in 81 Mexican patients with mental disorders; 25% of the patients had no medication adherence and 40% were below the reference range of fluoxetine plus norfluoxetine plasma concentrations. The results showed that concentrations can be affected by fluoxetine metabolism caused by CYP2D6 phenotype and the concomitant administration of olanzapine. Furthermore, CYP3A5 and CYP2C19 phenotype were associated with lower anxiety and depression control during treatment with fluoxetine. This study can be a starting point to elucidate the causes of fluoxetine variable response in Mexican patients with mental disorders, as well as to detect and support medication adherence.

Abstract
Accurate and individualized prediction of response to therapies is central to precision medicine. However, because of the generally complex and multifaceted nature of clinical drug response, realizing this vision is highly challenging, requiring integrating different data types from the same individual into one prediction model. We used the anti-epileptic drug brivaracetam as a case study and combine a hybrid data/knowledge-driven feature extraction with machine learning to systematically integrate clinical and genetic data from a clinical discovery dataset (n = 235 patients). We constructed a model that successfully predicts clinical drug response [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.76] and show that even with limited sample size, integrating high-dimensional genetics data with clinical data can inform drug response prediction. After further validation on data collected from an independently conducted clinical study (AUC = 0.75), we extensively explore our model to gain insights into the determinants of drug response, and identify various clinical and genetic characteristics predisposing to poor response. Finally, we assess the potential impact of our model on clinical trial design and demonstrate that, by enriching for probable responders, significant reductions in clinical study sizes may be achieved. To our knowledge, our model represents the first retrospectively validated machine learning model linking drug mechanism of action and the genetic, clinical and demographic background in epilepsy patients to clinical drug response. Hence, it provides a blueprint for how machine learning-based multimodal data integration can act as a driver in achieving the goals of precision medicine in fields such as neurology.

Abstract
Objective: Epilepsy is a neurologically based disease. Literature data indicate a certain association between the polymorphism of these genes, which participate in the metabolism of drugs (CYP), and drug-resistant epilepsy.Aim: The reports describe studies in which an association was evaluated between the rs1799853 (430C > T) and rs1057910 (1075A > C) polymorphisms of CYP2C9 gene and the rs4244285 (c.681G > A) polymorphism of CYP2C19 gene on one hand and the incidence of drug-resistant epilepsy in children on the other.Material and methods: The above-mentioned polymorphisms were assessed by the PCR-RFLP technique in a group of patients with drug-resistant (n = 106) and drug-responsive (n = 80) epilepsy, as well as in non-epileptic children (n = 97), all of them hospitalised at the Department of Neurology of the Institute-Polish Mother's Memorial Hospital in Lodz.Results: It was demonstrated that CT genotype of the rs1799853 polymorphism of CYP2C9 gene and GA genotype of the rs4244285 polymorphism of CYP2C19 gene caused an enhanced risk of epilepsy. It was also shown that the occurrence of C-G-A haplotype, when referred to the rs1799853 polymorphism of CYP2C9 gene and the rs4244285 polymorphism of CYP2C19 gene, could be associated with a decreased risk of epilepsy occurrence. In case of the rs1799853 polymorphism in CYP2C9 gene, the occurrence of T allele four times increases the risk of drug-resistance in patients with diagnosed epilepsy.Conclusion: The obtained results indicated that the rs1799853 and rs1057910 polymorphisms of CYP2C9 gene and the rs4244285 polymorphism of CYP2C19 gene could be associated with the occurrence of drug-resistant epilepsy in children.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a common, serious neurological disorder worldwide. Although this disease can be successfully treated in most cases, not all patients respond favorably to medical treatments, which can lead to pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Drug-resistant epilepsy can be caused by a number of mechanisms that may involve environmental and genetic factors, as well as disease- and drug-related factors. In recent years, numerous studies have demonstrated that genetic variation is involved in the drug resistance of epilepsy, especially genetic variations found in drug resistance-related genes, including the voltage-dependent sodium and potassium channels genes, and the metabolizer of endogenous and xenobiotic substances genes. The present review aimed to highlight the genetic variants that are involved in the regulation of drug resistance in epilepsy; a comprehensive understanding of the role of genetic variation in drug resistance will help us develop improved strategies to regulate drug resistance efficiently and determine the pathophysiological processes that underlie this common human neurological disease.

Abstract
Background A total of 50 million persons were diagnosed worldwide with epilepsy. One-third of them are experiencing debilitating seizures despite optimum anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) treatment. Several studies have suggested that CYP3A5, CHRM2, and ZNF498 influence the pharmacokinetics of AEDs. Therefore, the severity of the disease as well as the degree of response to the AEDs could be affected by the genetic polymorphisms within these genes. Objectives In this study, we assessed the effect of certain single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within CYP3A5, CHRM2, and ZNF498 genes on the susceptibility to develop epilepsy and the responsiveness to AEDs treatment. Methods A case-control and pharmacogenetic study was conducted on samples of 299 healthy individuals in addition to 296 epileptic patients. Genotypic, allelic, and clinical data association were performed for the selected polymorphisms within the (rs324649, rs420817, rs15524, and rs1859690) in the Jordanian population. Results The analysis revealed no significant association of the investigated SNPs with epilepsy in general, partial and generalized epilepsy as well as drug responsiveness. CYP3A5 and ZNF498 were associated with family history (P=0.003 and P=0.002, respectively) and the classification of epilepsy for the ZNF498 variant (P=0.009). On the other hand, CHRM2 was not linked to either disease severity or treatment responsiveness. Conclusion Our results failed to confirm the association of CYP3A5, ZNF498, and CHRM2 variants with either disease development or treatment response. Clinical pharmacogenetic studies may contribute to treatment personalization, appropriate drug dose selection, minimizing drug adverse reactions, increasing drug efficacy, and reducing the costive burdens.

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
PURPOSE SCN1A (3184 A>G) and SCN2A (56G>A) gene encodes α subunit of the neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel, which is a target for carbamazepine (CBZ). Recent studies have demonstrated that polymorphism of SCN1A (3184 A>G) and SCN2A (56G>A) was associated with use of CBZ. However, it has not been determined whether the polymorphism affects CBZ or other antiepileptic drug responsiveness. The aim of the study was to establish whether the SCN1A (3184 A>G) and SCN2A (56G>A) polymorphisms of the SCN1A and SCN2A genes affect responsiveness to CBZ. METHODS SCN1A (3184 A>G) and SCN2A (56G>A) gene polymorphisms were genotyped in 93 Khyber Pakhtunkhwa epileptic patients treated with CBZ. The association between CBZ responsiveness and the polymorphism was estimated by adjusting for clinical factors affecting the outcome of therapy. The number of seizure episodes was documented at baseline, and the therapy of each of the 93 patients was followed up. The plasma level of CBZ was determined using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. SCN1A and SCN2A genes were genotyped using RFLP. Data were analyzed using Graph Pad Prism 6. RESULTS Mean age of the patients was 18.6±9.3 at the 3rd month and 18.7±9.5 at the 6th month. The baseline dose of CBZ was 468±19.8 mg/d and titrated at the rate of 48±1.4 and 4.0±0.2 mg/d. The difference in plasma level of CBZ was significant (P=0.004) between 3rd and 6th month among different genotypes of SCN1A gene in nonresponder and responder patients. At the 3rd month of the therapy, the poor responders were more likely (P=0.003 and P=0.01) to have variants (3184AG and 3184GG) of SCN1A gene. Similarly, poor responsders were more likely (P=0.0007 and P=0.001) to have variant genotypes (56GA, 56AA) of SCN2A gene at the 3rd month of the therapy. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated a significant association between the SCN1A (3184 AG and GG) and SCN2A (56GA and AA) genotype with CBZ-nonresponsive epilepsy.

Abstract
Although carbamazepine is one of the oldest anticonvulsant drugs, it is still heavily utilized for treatment of epilepsy in children. The aim of this article was to review the current knowledge about pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics of carbamazepine in children. The literature for this review was systematically searched for in the MEDLINE and SCINDEKS databases. Oral bioavailability of carbamazepine in children is about 75-85%, and it is approximately 75-85% bound to plasma proteins. Apparent volume of distribution is 1.2-1.9 l/kg and total clearance between 0.05 and 0.1 l/h/kg. Pharmacokinetics of carbamazepine in children is age and body weight dependent and highly variable due to influence of dosing regimen and co-medication. The current evidence on the importance of pharmacogenetics for carbamazepine efficacy and safety in children supports the association of PXR*1B, HNF4a rs2071197, CYP1A2*1F, ABCC2 1249G>A, and PRRT2 c.649dupC with either pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of carbamazepine. The importance of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing for prediction of adverse drug reactions to carbamazepine in children is also confirmed. Both genetic and environmental factors are responsible for shaping pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of carbamazepine in children. To ensure safe and effective use of carbamazepine in this population, physicians should adjust dosing regimen according to existing pattern of genetic and environmental influences.

Abstract
The association between the MDR1 gene C3435T polymorphism and childhood intractable epilepsy remains controversial. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to clarify this issue. We searched the PubMed, Medline, Embase and CNKI databases for studies published through October 2016 that evaluated the association between the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and childhood refractory epilepsy. Eleven studies involving 863 cases in the group with drug-resistant epilepsy and 915 cases in the group with drug-responsive epilepsy were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The analysis showed that there was not a significant association of the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism overall with risk of drug-resistance. But the allelic association of MDR1 C3435T and the association of the MDR1 3435 CC genotype with risk of drug-resistance were significant among European population and a '>2010' group based on publication year subgroup analysis. The relationship between the MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and childhood refractory epilepsy needs further validation.

Abstract
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common form of adult epilepsy in surgical series. Currently, the only characteristic used to predict poor response to clinical treatment in this syndrome is the presence of hippocampal sclerosis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in genes encoding drug transporter and metabolism proteins could influence response to therapy. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether combining information from clinical variables as well as SNPs in candidate genes could improve the accuracy of predicting response to drug therapy in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. For this, we divided 237 patients into two groups: 75 responsive and 162 refractory to antiepileptic drug therapy. We genotyped 119 SNPs in ABCB1, ABCC2, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 genes. We used 98 additional SNPs to evaluate population stratification. We assessed a first scenario using only clinical variables and a second one including SNP information. The random forests algorithm combined with leave-one-out cross-validation was used to identify the best predictive model in each scenario and compared their accuracies using the area under the curve statistic. Additionally, we built a variable importance plot to present the set of most relevant predictors on the best model. The selected best model included the presence of hippocampal sclerosis and 56 SNPs. Furthermore, including SNPs in the model improved accuracy from 0.4568 to 0.8177. Our findings suggest that adding genetic information provided by SNPs, located on drug transport and metabolism genes, can improve the accuracy for predicting which patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy are likely to be refractory to drug treatment, making it possible to identify patients who may benefit from epilepsy surgery sooner.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite the advances in the pharmacological treatment of epilepsy, pharmacoresistance still remains challenging. Understanding of the pharmacogenetic causes is critical to predict drug response hence providing a basis for personalized medications. Genetic alteration in activity of drug target and drug metabolizing proteins could explain the development of pharmacoresistant epilepsy. So the aim of this study was to explore whether SCN1A c.3184 A/G (rs2298771) and CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) polymorphisms could serve as genetic based biomarkers to predict pharmacoresistance among Egyptian epileptic children. METHODS Genotyping of SCN1A c.3184 A/G and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was performed in 65 healthy control subjects and 130 patients with epilepsy, of whom 50 were drug resistant and 80 were drug responsive. RESULTS There was a significant higher frequency of the AG genotype (p=0.001) and G allele (p=0.006) of SCN1A polymorphism in epileptic patients than in controls. Also their frequency was significantly higher in drug resistant patients in comparison with drug responders (p=0.005 and 0.054 respectively). No significant association between CYP3A5*3 polymorphism and drug-resistance was found. CONCLUSIONS Overall, results confirmed the claimed role of SCN1A c.3184 A/G polymorphism in epilepsy and moreover in development of pharmacoresistance among Egyptian epileptic children. CYP3A5*3 variants have no contributing effect on pharmacoresistance among Egyptian epileptic children.

Abstract
Purpose Epilepsy is a disease of neurological character. Approximately one third of epileptic patients demonstrate a drug-resistant phenotype, which is associated with the development of drug-resistant epilepsy. The multidrug resistance protein 1 and glycoprotein P, encoded by MDR1, play a significant role in the transmembrane transport of anti-epileptic agents. Single nucleotide polymorphism C3435T (rs1045642) within MDR1 gene may be associated with an increased expression of P-gp which affects the levels of antiepileptic drugs in plasma. The presented studies analysed the association between C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene and the incidence of drug-resistant epilepsy in the population of Polish children. Methods C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene was analysed by the high resolution melting technique in a group of patients with drug-resistant (n = 106) and drug-responsive epilepsy (n = 67), as well as in non-epileptic children (n = 98) hospitalised at the Department of Neurology, Polish Mother’s Memorial Hospital in Lodz. Genotype and allele distributions were evaluated and their compatibility with the Hardy–Weinberg distribution was assessed by means of the χ2 test. Genotype and allele evaluation, regarding their relationship with a given feature, was supported by an analysis of odds ratio and 95 % confidence interval, calculated according to the logistic regression model. Results An association was observed between the incidence rate of DRE and the presence of C allele in C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene, which may enhance the risk of the disease. The T allele may then play a protective role. No differences were found in the studied groups, regarding either genotype or allele distribution in reference to patient’s gender or concomitant diseases. Conclusion Following the obtained results, C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene may be connected with the incidence of drug-resistant epilepsy in the population of Polish children. ISRCTN ISRCTN73824458.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1; P-glycoprotein; multidrug resistance protein 1) is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent efflux transporter located in the plasma membrane of many different cell types. Numerous structurally unrelated compounds, including drugs and environmental toxins, have been identified as substrates. ABCB1 limits the absorption of xenobiotics from the gut lumen, protects sensitive tissues (e.g. the brain, fetus and testes) from xenobiotics and is involved in biliary and renal secretion of its substrates. In recent years, a large number of polymorphisms of the ABCB1 [ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B (MDR/TAP), member 1] gene have been described. The variants 1236C>T (rs1128503, p.G412G), 2677G>T/A (rs2032582, p.A893S/T) and 3435C>T (rs1045642, p.I1145I) occur at high allele frequencies and create a common haplotype; therefore, they have been most widely studied. This review provides an overview of clinical studies published between 2002 and March 2015. In summary, the effect of ABCB1 variation on P-glycoprotein expression (messenger RNA and protein expression) and/or activity in various tissues (e.g. the liver, gut and heart) appears to be small. Although polymorphisms and haplotypes of ABCB1 have been associated with alterations in drug disposition and drug response, including adverse events with various ABCB1 substrates in different ethnic populations, the results have been majorly conflicting, with limited clinical relevance. Future research activities are warranted, considering a deep-sequencing approach, as well as well-designed clinical studies with appropriate sample sizes to elucidate the impact of rare ABCB1 variants and their potential consequences for effect sizes.

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
Background The diagnosis of “drug resistance” in epilepsy can be defined and interpreted in various ways. This may be due to discrepant definitions of drug resistance to pharmacotherapy. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between C3435T polymorphism of the MDR1 gene and drug resistance in epilepsy with the consideration of 4 different criteria for qualification to groups sensitive and resistant to applied pharmacotherapy. Material/Methods Evaluation of C3435T polymorphism of MDR1/ABCB1 gene was conducted on a group of 82 white children and young adolescents up to 18 years old. While qualifying the patients to the group of sensitive or drug resistant, the following 4 definitions of drug resistance were applied: the ILAE’s, Appleton’s, Siddiqui’s, and Berg’s. Results A detailed analysis of genotypes of the MDR1 gene did not show any significant discrepancies between the groups of patients resistant and sensitive to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in 4 consecutive comparisons taking into consideration various criteria of sensitivity and resistance to pharmacotherapy. Conclusions The obtained results clearly confirm the lack of a connection between the occurrence of drug-resistant epilepsy and C435T polymorphism of the MDR1 gene irrespective of the definition of drug resistance applied to the patient.

Abstract
Drug-resistant epilepsy is also referred to as intractable, medically refractory, or pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Approximately, one-third of patients with epilepsy have recurrent seizures despite therapy. Multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene may play a role in drug-resistance in epilepsy. To assess the association between MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and the response to anticonvulsants in childhood intractable epilepsy, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. Studies were obtained from the electronic database of PubMed, Medline, Embase and CNKI up to September 2013. All the case-control association researches evaluating the role of MDR1 C3435T polymorphism in childhood epilepsy to antiepileptic drugs were identified. The odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for comparisons of the alleles and genotypes with co-dominant (C/C vs. T/T, C/T vs. T/T), dominant (C/C + C/T vs. T/T), and recessive (C/C vs. C/T + T/T) models in overall and in ethnicity subgroups to measure the strength of genetic association. A total of 8 related studies, including 634 drug-resistant patients, 615 drug-responsive patients and 1,052 healthy controls were pooled in this meta-analysis. The allelic association of MDR1 C3435T with risk of drug-resistance was not significant (OR 1.03, 95% CI 0.87-1.22, P = 0.73; OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.86-1.16, P = 0.98) in overall and in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity (Asian: OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.77-1.18, P = 0.67; Caucasian: OR 1.18, 95% CI 0.89-1.57, P = 0.25). Neither association was found in other genetic models. Our results did not show a significant association between MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and response to anticonvulsant drugs, suggesting that this polymorphism may not be a risk factor to childhood intractable epilepsy.

[PMID: 25657765 PMCID: PMC4307363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2014] [Revised: 05/11/2014] [Accepted: 05/12/2014] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Epilepsy is one of the most common diseases in Iran contributing to an array of health problems. In light of this, the aim of the present study is to examine the prevalence of epilepsy in Iran through a systematic review and meta-analysis. MATERIALS & METHODS A systematic search of several databases including PubMed, scientific information databases, Google, Google scholar, Elsevier and Scopus was conducted in June 2013. Observational studies were considered for inclusion if they were published in Iranian and examined epilepsy prevalence and/or related risk factors. Meta-analysis was conducted using a random effect model with the DerSimonian/Laird method. Heterogeneity was examined using the Breslow- Day test and inconsistency using the I2 statistic. RESULTS A total of 45 studies were identified from the search strategy. Of these, nine published manuscripts with a total of 7,723 participants were included within the review. The pooled prevalence of epilepsy in Iran was estimated to be around 5% (95% confident interval (CI) 2 to 8). For each region the prevalence of epilepsy in central, northern and eastern Iran were 5% (95%CI 2 to 8), 1% (95%CI -1 to 3) and 4% (95%CI 3 to 11) respectively. The most common risk factors in order of prevalence were somatic diseases 39% (95%CI 15 to 62), convulsion 38% (95%CI 11 to 65), mental diseases 36% (95%CI 15 to 95) and hereditary development 26% (95%CI 9 to 42). A meta-regression model identified a declining trend in the prevalence of epilepsy within Iran for the last decade. CONCLUSION Pooled analyses from the nine included publications in this review estimate the prevalence of epilepsy in Iran to be around 5%. Although this result is much higher than rates in other countries, a declining trend in prevalence over the past decade was also identified.
