Abstract
OBJECTIVES Carbamazepine (CBZ) is one of the oldest, yet first line drugs for treating epilepsy. However, there is a large inter-individual difference in requirement of maintenance dose and one third of persons treated with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) exhibit drug resistance to therapy. One of the proposed mechanisms for the drug resistance was increased expression of efflux transporter P-glycoprotein. The pharmacogenetic studies of drug transporters (ABCB1) done in combination therapies of AEDs were inconclusive. Hence, we have attempted to study the impact of ABCB1 3435C>T genetic polymorphism and CBZ monotherapy in persons with epilepsy (PWE) from South India, which is a genetically distinct population. With this background, this study was aimed to determine the dose of CBZ in ABCB1 3435C>T genotypes and to determine the distribution of ABCB1 3435C>T genotypes (which codes P-glycoprotein) between responders and non-responders to CBZ therapy. METHODS A cross sectional study was conducted in 200 persons with epilepsy, who were categorised as responders and non-responders according to ILAE (international league against epilepsy) criteria. Eligible participants were enrolled from the epilepsy clinic of the neurology department and five ml of blood was collected. DNA extraction and genotyping were done by phenol-chloroform method and real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), respectively. RESULTS The mean maintenance dose of carbamazepine was statistically significant among different genotypes (p<0.05) of ABCB1 3435C>T (526 vs. 637 mg/day in CC vs. TT genotype). There was no significant association between ABCB1 3435C>T polymorphism (p=0.827) and CBZ resistance in PWE. Duration of disease and age of onset were found to be significant in predicting the response to CBZ therapy. CONCLUSIONS We report that ABCB1 3435C>T polymorphism is significantly associated with an increase in dose requirement of CBZ in persons with epilepsy from South India.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epilepsy is a common neurological disease but around 30% of patients fail to respond to antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment. Genetic variation of the ATP-binding cassette subfamily B, member 1 (ABCB1) gene, a drug efflux transporter may infer treatment resistance by decreasing gastrointestinal absorption and preventing AED entry into the brain. This study examined the impact of ABCB1 genetic variants on carbamazepine responsiveness. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood of 104 epileptic patients. Genotyping of 3 ABCB1 variants (c.C3435T, c.G2677T/A and c.C1236T) was undertaken using validated TaqMan allelic discrimination assays. Plasma carbamazepine levels were measured at 3 and 6 months following the initial dose using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) alongside clinical outcomes evaluation. RESULTS Nonresponse to carbamazepine (CBZ) was associated significantly with the ABCB1 variants c.C3435T, c.G2677T/A, c.C1236T and TTT, TTC haplotypes (P < 0.05). There was no significant association between variants and plasma CBZ level (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that variant alleles of the ABCB1 gene and TTT, TTC haplotypes were significantly associated with CBZ resistance without affecting the plasma level of carbamazepine. The findings of this study may help to predict patient's response to treatment ultimately it will improve the personalized and evidence based treatment choice of patients with epilepsy.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms in ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1, also known as MDR1) have been reported to be possibly associated with the regulation of response to antiseizure medications. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of ABCB1 polymorphisms with the efficacy of and adverse drug reactions to valproic acid among Chinese children with epilepsy. A total of 170 children from southern China with epilepsy treated with valproic acid for more than one year were recruited, including 61 patients with persistent seizures and 109 patients who were seizure-free. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCB1, rs1128503 and rs3789243, were genotyped using the Sequenom MassArray system. The two single nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCB1 were found to be significantly associated with treatment outcomes of valproic acid in children with epilepsy. Carriers with the TT genotype of ABCB1 rs1128503 were more inclined to exhibit persistent seizures after treatment with valproic acid (p = 0.013). The CC genotype of rs3789243 was observed to be a potential protective factor for valproic acid-induced gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions (p = 0.018), but possibly increased the risk of valproic acid-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (p = 0.011). In contrast, the CT genotype of rs3789243 was associated with a lower risk of valproic acid-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (p = 0.011). Haplotype analysis showed that CC haplotype carriers tended to respond better to valproic acid treatment (p = 0.009). Additionally, no significant association was found between ABCB1 polymorphisms and serum concentrations of valproic acid. This study revealed that the polymorphisms and haplotypes of the ABCB1 gene might be associated with the treatment outcomes of valproic acid in Chinese children with epilepsy.

[PMID: 37493972 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-05092-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/27/2023]
Abstract
Oxcarbazepine (OXC) is an antiepileptic drug whose efficacy is largely attributed to its monohydroxy derivative metabolite (MHD). Nevertheless, there exists significant inter-individual variability in both the pharmacokinetics and therapeutic response of this drug. The objective of this study is to explore the impact of patients' characteristics and genetic variants on MHD clearance in a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of Chinese pediatric patients with epilepsy. The PPK model was developed using a nonlinear mixed effects modeling method based on 231 MHD plasma concentrations obtained from 185 children with epilepsy. The one-compartment model and combined residual model were established to describe the pharmacokinetics of MHD. Forward addition and backward elimination were employed to evaluate the impact of covariates on the model parameters. The model was evaluated using goodness-of-fit, bootstrap, visual predictive checks, and normalized prediction distribution errors. In the two final PPK models, age, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and a combined genotype of six variants (rs1045642, rs2032582, rs7668282, rs2396185, rs2304016, rs1128503) were found to significantly reduce inter-individual variability for MHD clearance. The inter-individual clearance equals to 1.38 × (Age/4.74)0.29 × (eGFR/128.66)0.25 × eθABCB-UGT-SCN-INSR for genetic variants included model and 1.30 × (Age/4.74)0.30 × (eGFR/128.66)0.23 for model without genetic variants. The precision of all parameters was deemed acceptable, and the model exhibited good predictability while remaining stable and effective. Conclusion: Age, eGFR, and genotype may play a significant role in MHD clearance in children with epilepsy. The developed PPK models hold potential utility in facilitating oxcarbazepine dose adjustment in pediatric patients. What is Known: • The adjustment of the oxcarbazepine regimen remains difficult due to the considerable inter- and intra-individual variability of oxcarbazepine pharmacokinetics. • Body weight and co-administration with enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs emerge as the most influential factors contributing to the pharmacokinetics of MHD. What is New: • A positive correlation was observed between eGFR and the clearance of MHD in pediatric patients with epilepsy. • We explored the influence of genetic polymorphisms on MHD clearance and identified a combined genotype (ABCB-UGT-SCN-INSR) that exhibited a significant association with MHD concentration.

Abstract
Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurodisorders in the pediatric age group. Despite the availability of over 20 anti-seizure medications (ASMs) on the market, drug-resistant epilepsy still affects one-third of individuals. Consequently, this research aimed to investigate the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) gene in epileptic pediatric patients and their response to ASMs. This multicentric, cross-sectional study was conducted among Saudi children with epilepsy in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The polymorphism variants of ABCB1 rs1128503 at exon 12, rs2032582 at exon 21, and rs1045642 at exon 26 were genotyped using the Sanger sequencing technique. The study included 85 children with epilepsy: 43 patients demonstrated a good response to ASMs, while 42 patients exhibited a poor response. The results revealed that good responders were significantly more likely to have the TT genotypes at rs1045642 and rs2032582 SNPs compared to poor responders. Additionally, haplotype analysis showed that the T-G-C haplotype at rs1128503, rs2032582, and rs1045642 was only present in poor responders. In conclusion, this study represents the first pharmacogenetic investigation of the ABCB1 gene in Saudi epileptic pediatric patients and demonstrates a significant association between rs1045642 and rs2032582 variants and patient responsiveness. Despite the small sample size, the results underscore the importance of personalized treatment for epileptic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resistance to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) remains one of the main challenges to neurologists. Polymorphisms of drug efflux transporters such as multidrug resistance (MDR1) gene and target sites such as the nucleus accumbens-associated 1 (NAC1) gene have been suggested to influence the responsiveness to treatment. AIM Evaluation of the association of MDR1 and NAC1 polymorphisms with AEDs resistance among Jordanian epileptic patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS 86 Jordanian epileptics were included in the study. DNA was extracted and genotyping was conducted by polymerase chain reaction followed by sequencing. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the MDR1 gene and six SNPs on the NAC1 gene were investigated. RESULTS MDR1 and NAC1 polymorphisms don't seem to influence the resistance to AEDs at the genotype or allele level. However, a strong association was found between MDR1 rs2032588 (OR = 5; 95%CI = [1.3-18.8], p = 0.01) and AEDs resistance among males at the allele level. Also, data revealed an association between MDR1 rs1128503 and AEDs resistance among females at the allele level. CONCLUSION The data suggest that MDR1 and NAC1 polymorphisms do not influence the AEDs resistance among Jordanian epileptics. However, there is a gender-dependent association between MDR1 polymorphisms and resistance to AEDs at two SNPs (rs2032588 and rs1128503).

Abstract
BACKGROUND P-glycoprotein, encoded by ABCB1 (or MDR1), may contribute to drug resistance in epilepsy by limiting gastrointestinal absorption and brain access to antiseizure medications. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of ABCB1 polymorphisms on lacosamide (LCM) serum concentrations in Uygur pediatric patients with epilepsy. METHODS The serum concentrations of LCM were determined by ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography, and the ABCB1 polymorphism was analyzed through polymerase chain reaction-fluorescence staining in situ hybridization. The χ2 test and the Fisher exact test were used to analyze the allelic and genotypic distributions of ABCB1 polymorphisms between the drug-resistant and drug-responsive patient groups. Differences in steady-state and dose-corrected LCM serum concentrations between different genotypes were analyzed using the one-way analysis of variance and the Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS A total of 131 Uygur children with epilepsy were analyzed, and of them, 41 demonstrated drug resistance. The frequency of the GT genotype of ABCB1 G2677T/A was significantly higher in the drug-resistant group than that in the drug-responsive group (P < 0.05, OR = 1.966, 95% CI, 1.060-3.647). Patients with the G2677T/A-AT genotype had a statistically significantly lower concentration-to-dose (CD) value than patients with the G2677T/A-GG genotype (mean: 0.6 ± 0.2 versus 0.8 ± 0.5 mcg/mL per mg/kg, P < 0.001). Significantly lower LCM serum concentrations were observed in ABCB1 C3435T CT and TT genotype carriers than those in the CC carriers (P = 0.008 and P = 0.002), and a significantly lower LCM CD value was observed in ABCB1 C3435T CT genotype carriers than that in the CC carriers (P = 0.042). CONCLUSIONS ABCB1 G2677T/A and C3435T polymorphisms may affect LCM serum concentrations and treatment efficacy in Uygur pediatric patients with epilepsy, leading to drug resistance in pediatric patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms of drug efflux transporters as ATP-binding cassette subfamily B, member 1 (ABCB1) have been suggested to modulate antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) response. We aimed to explore the association of ABCB1 polymorphisms and AEDs resistance among epileptic patients. METHODS A total of 86 Jordanian epileptic patients treated with AEDs was included in the study. DNA was extracted from blood samples and genotyping and haplotypes analyses were conducted for Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the ABCB1 gene. RESULTS Data revealed that none of the examined SNPs were associated with resistance to AEDs neither on the level of alleles nor genotypes. However, strong association was found between rs2235048 (OR = 10.6; 95%CI = [1.89-59.8], p= 0.01), rs1045642 (OR = 14; 95%CI = [1.3-156.7], p= 0.02), rs2032582 (OR = 9.1; 95%CI = [1.4-57.3], p= 0.04) and rs1128503 (OR = 18.7; 95%CI = [1.6-222.9], p= 0.02), ABCB1 polymorphisms and resistance to AEDs among females but not males. Haplotype analysis revealed statistically significant associations. The strongest significant associations were for haplotypes containing 2677G_1236 T in two-SNPshaplotypes (OR = 4.2; 95%CI = [1.2-14.9], p = 0.024); three-SNPs-haplotypes (OR = 4.2; 95% CI = [1.2-14.9], p = 0.02); four-SNPs-haplotypes (OR = 4.1; 95%CI = [1.2-14.3], p = 0.026). CONCLUSION Data suggests that there is a gender dependent association between ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms and response to AEDs. Additionally, ABCB1 haplotypes influence the response to AEDs. Further investigation is needed to confirm the results of this study.

Mugosa S, Todorovic Z, Cukic J, Sahman-Zaimovic M, Djordjevic N. ABCB1 polymorphism in clopidogrel-treated Montenegrin patients. Open Life Sci 2021; 16:142-149. [PMID: 33817306 PMCID: PMC7968540 DOI: 10.1515/biol-2021-0017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2020] [Revised: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug that displays significant interindividual variability in treatment response. Its bioavailability depends on the function of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which is coded by a highly polymorphic ABCB1 gene. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ABCB1 genetic polymorphism on clopidogrel efficacy and safety and to determine the frequency distribution of its most common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 106 Montenegrin cardiology patients. Clopidogrel efficacy and safety were followed up during 1 year after hospitalization, with the lack of efficacy and adverse drug reactions observed in 11 (10.4%) and 8 patients (7.5%), respectively. Genotyping for ABCB1 SNPs rs1128503 (1236C > T), rs2032582 (2677G > A/T), and rs1045642 (3435C > T) was performed by the real-time PCR method, and the variant alleles were detected with the frequencies of 42.9, 44.8, and 52.8%, respectively. No significant association was observed between any of the examined genotypes and clopidogrel efficacy (p = 0.253) or safety (p = 0.424). Due to small sample size, co-treatment with other drugs, and other genetic factors not taken into account, we believe the absence of correlation between ABCB1 genotypes and indicators of clopidogrel efficacy and safety in this study should be apprehended conditionally, and that larger and better-controlled studies are warranted.

LMR-101, a novel derivative of propofol, exhibits potent anticonvulsant effects and possibly interacts with a novel target on γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors. Epilepsia 2021; 62:238-249. [PMID: 33417274 DOI: 10.1111/epi.16757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2020] [Revised: 10/19/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE LMR-101 is a bisphenol derivative of propofol, a short-acting general anesthetic, which is also used to manage status epilepticus (SE). We evaluated the sedative and anticonvulsant effects of LMR-101 to discover its potential to manage epilepsy and SE in the clinic. METHODS Comparative studies between LMR-101 and propofol were performed in mice to elucidate an appropriate dose range for LMR-101 that produced anticonvulsant effects without significant sedation. Then, the anticonvulsive efficacy for LMR-101 was evaluated using seizure models induced by pentylenetetrazol and (+)-bicuculline. The ability of LMR-101 to inhibit SE was assessed using a rat model of SE induced by pilocarpine. Radioligand binding assay profiles for LMR-101 were performed to evaluate the potential mechanisms of action underlying its anticonvulsant properties. RESULTS In the mouse study, LMR-101 exhibited greater anticonvulsant and lesser sedative effect compared with propofol. LMR-101 completely inhibited pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures at a dose of 50 mg/kg and exhibited heavy sedation at 300 mg/kg. Propofol anesthetized all mice and only decreased the seizure rate at 25 mg/kg. LMR-101 also suppressed seizure behaviors evoked by (+)-bicuculline in mice in a dose-dependent manner. In the pilocarpine-induced SE model, LMR-101 significantly decreased the maximum seizure score and seizure duration in a dose-dependent manner. The median effective dose for LMR-101 was 14.30 mg/kg and 121.87 mg/kg to prevent and inhibit sustained SE, respectively. In binding assays, LMR-101 primarily inhibited tert-[35 S] butylbicyclophosphorothionate binding to γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA ) receptors (half-maximal inhibitory concentration = 2.06 μmol·L-1 ), but it did not affect [3 H] flunitrazepam or [3 H] muscimol binding. SIGNIFICANCE It is anticipated that LMR-101 might play an essential role in the clinical management of epilepsy and SE. LMR-101 also might bind to a novel target site on the GABAA receptor that is different from existing antiepileptic drugs. Further study of the mechanisms of action of LMR-101 would be of considerable value in the search for new active drug sites on GABAA receptors.

ABCB1 Polymorphisms and Drug-Resistant Epilepsy in a Tunisian Population. DISEASE MARKERS 2019; 2019:1343650. [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
ObjectiveOur study objectives were to identify factors associated with new-onset epilepsy and refractory epilepsy among older adult stroke survivors and to evaluate the receipt of diagnostic care and mortality for participants who developed epilepsy.MethodsWe conducted a population-based, retrospective cohort study using linked, administrative health care databases. The Ontario Stroke Registry was used to identify patients 67 years and older who were hospitalized for a stroke at a designated stroke center in Ontario, Canada, between April 1, 2003, and March 31, 2009, and were previously free of epilepsy. Multivariable Fine–Gray hazard models were used to examine risk factors of epilepsy and refractory epilepsy, accounting for the competing risk of death.ResultsAmong 19,138 older adults hospitalized for a stroke, 210 (1.1%) developed epilepsy and 27 (12.9%) became refractory to antiepileptic drugs. Within 1 year of epilepsy diagnosis, 24 (11.4%) patients were assessed with EEG and 19 (9.0%) with MRI. In multivariable analysis, younger age and thrombolysis receipt significantly increased epilepsy risk. Lesser stroke severity and anticoagulant medication receipt also significantly increased epilepsy risk; however, these effects decreased over time. Younger age and female sex were the only risk factors of refractory epilepsy. In the 5 years following epilepsy diagnosis, 97 (46.2%) participants died of any cause.ConclusionsOlder adult stroke survivors are less likely to develop epilepsy and pharmacologically refractory epilepsy. An estimated 86.6% of deaths among older adult stroke survivors with new-onset epilepsy are attributed to causes other than stroke or epilepsy.

ABC transporters in drug-resistant epilepsy: mechanisms of upregulation and therapeutic approaches. Pharmacol Res 2019; 144:357-376.

Abstract
Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one third of epileptic patients. Among various theories that try to explain multidrug resistance, the transporter hypothesis is the most extensively studied. Accordingly, the overexpression of efflux transporters in the blood-brain barrier (BBB), mainly from the ATP binding cassette (ABC) superfamily, may be responsible for hampering the access of antiepileptic drugs into the brain. P-glycoprotein and other efflux transporters are known to be upregulated in endothelial cells, astrocytes and neurons of the neurovascular unit, a functional barrier critically involved in the brain penetration of drugs. Inflammation and oxidative stress involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy together with uncontrolled recurrent seizures, drug-associated induction and genetic polymorphisms are among the possible causes of ABC transporters overexpression in DRE. The aforementioned pathological mechanisms will be herein discussed together with the multiple strategies to overcome the activity of efflux transporters in the BBB - from direct transporters inhibition to down-regulation of gene expression resorting to RNA interference (RNAi), or by targeting key modulators of inflammation and seizure-mediated signalling.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim: A possible molecular mechanism of clinically defined multidrug-resistant epilepsy involves drug efflux transporters such as P glycoprotein (P-gp), a member of the ATP-binding cassette subfamily B1 (ABCB1). We have investigated the prevalence of the C3435T, G 2677T/A, and T129C single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of MDR1 gene, in Romanian epileptic patients.
Methods: 70 epileptic patients evaluated in the Neurology Department of Cluj County Hospital were included in the study. The response to treatment was assessed by reviewing the seizure diaries and the patients were classified as responders or non-responders. Antiepileptic drug (AED) plasmatic concentrations were measured and the patients were divided into 2 groups: first group with AED concentrations in therapeutic range and the second one with sub-optimal AED concentrations. Genotyping the DNA samples, we investigated MDR1 gene polymorphism by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results were expressed as genotype and allele frequencies per response group and compared between subgroups.
Results: 33 patients (47.14%) were classified as responders, while the remaining 37 patients (52.86%) were classified as non-responders. A comparison of responders and non-responders revealed no significant difference in genotype frequency for any of the three mutations studied. The CT heterozygote for ABCB1 T129C had significantly lower AED concentrations (p=0.041), with no significant difference for the other polymorphisms studied.
Conclusions: In our study we found an association of CT variant in ABCB1 C129T with lower AED plasmatic concentrations and no association between ABCB1 variants and the drug responsiveness.

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.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous malignant disease. Many different genetic factors can affect a patient’s clinical outcome. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the expression of BCL11A and MDR1 in AML patients, and its relation to clinical outcome. Materials & methods: We grouped the 142 patients by the levels of BCL11A and MDR1 and identified three different subgroups: high BCL11A and high MDR1 (n = 47), low BCL11A and low MDR1 (n = 47) and high BCL11A alone or high MDR1 alone (n = 48). Results: The results showed that AML patients with high BCL11A and MDR1 expression had the lowest complete remission and highest relapse rate. The median overall survival of the high BCL11A and high MDR1 group was the shortest among the three groups. With regards to overall survival, there were also significant differences among the groups (p < 0.001). Conclusion: High BCL11A and MDR1 expression was associated with a poor response to chemotherapy, and identified a subset of AML patients with a very poor prognosis.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyse the frequency of genotypes and alleles of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-G2677T/A (rs2032582) of MDR1 gene and to investigate the significance this genetic variation exerts on drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) in the Polish adult population. The study comprised 340 patients treated for DRE and 240 patients treated for drug-responsive epilepsy. Three hundred and sixty disease-free individuals were used as controls. Genomic DNA was isolated, and the SNP G2677T/A of MDR1 was determined by High-Resolution Melter technique. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for each genotype and allele. In this paper, we have demonstrated that A allele of SNP G2677T/A of MDR1 may reduce the risk of DRE (OR 0.44; 95% CI 0.33-0.58, p < 0.0001), whereas allele G itself may be a risk factor for this disease. No differences were found in the distribution of the genotypes and alleles in the studied groups, depending on sex as well as on concomitant diseases (p > 0.05). G2677T/A polymorphism of MDR1 may play a significant role in the development of DRE in the Polish patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms are known to influence outcomes with phenytoin yet effects in the Middle East and North Africa region are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the impact of genetic polymorphisms on phenytoin pharmacokinetics and clinical outcomes in populations originating from the Middle East and North Africa region, and to characterize genotypic and allelic frequencies within the region for genetic polymorphisms assessed. METHODS MEDLINE (1946-3 May, 2017), EMBASE (1974-3 May, 2017), Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Base, and Public Health Genomics Knowledge Base online databases were searched. Studies were included if genotyping and analyses of phenytoin pharmacokinetics were performed in patients of the Middle East and North Africa region. Study quality was assessed using a National Institutes of Health assessment tool. A secondary search identified studies reporting genotypic and allelic frequencies of assessed genetic polymorphisms within the Middle East and North Africa region. RESULTS Five studies met the inclusion criteria. CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and multidrug resistance protein 1 C3435T variants were evaluated. While CYP2C9*2 and *3 variants significantly reduced phenytoin metabolism, the impacts of CYP2C19*2 and *3 variants were unclear. The multidrug resistance protein 1 CC genotype was associated with drug-resistant epilepsy, but reported impacts on phenytoin pharmacokinetics were conflicting. Appreciable variability in minor allele frequencies existed both between and within countries of the Middle East and North Africa region. CONCLUSIONS CYP2C9 decrease-of-function alleles altered phenytoin pharmacokinetics in patients originating from the Middle East and North Africa region. The impacts of CYP2C19 and multidrug resistance protein 1 C3435T variants on phenytoin pharmacokinetic and clinical outcomes are unclear and require further investigation. Future research should focus on the clinical outcomes associated with phenytoin therapy. PROSPERO 2017: CRD42017057850.

PURPOSE The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of ABCB1, ABCC2, UGT2B7 and HNF4α genetic polymorphisms on plasma oxcarbazepine (OXC) concentrations and therapeutic efficacy in Han Chinese patients with epilepsy. METHODS We recruited 116 Han Chinese patients with epilepsy who were receiving OXC monotherapy. Blood samples were taken and OXC levels were measured. The polymorphisms of ABCB1 rs1045642, ABCC2 rs2273697, UGT2B7 rs7439366, and HNF4α rs2071197 were determined. The therapeutic efficacy of OXC at the 1-year time-point was assessed. Data analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0. RESULTS The genetic polymorphism of ABCB1 rs1045642 was found to be associated with normalized OXC concentration and therapeutic efficacy in patients with epilepsy (P<0.05). As for UGT2B7 rs7439366, the allele polymorphism exhibited a correlation with treatment outcome, but not OXC concentration. The polymorphisms of ABCC2 rs2273697 and HNF4α rs2071197 was not associated with OXC concentrations and therapeutic efficacy. CONCLUSION These results suggested that ABCB1 rs1045642 and UGT2B7 rs7439366 may affect OXC pharmacokinetics and therapeutic efficacy in Han Chinese patients with epilepsy. However, further studies in larger populations and other ethnic groups are required.
