[CYP2D6 gene polymorphic markers role in determining the optimal treatment tactics for portal hypertension in patients with liver cirrhosis].

AIM: To study the polymorphic markers CYP2D6*4 (G1846A, rs3892097), CYP2D6*6 (T1707del, rs5030655), CYP2D6*10 (C100T, rs1065852), CYP2D6*41 (G2988A, rs28371725) and CYP2D6*3 (A2549del, rs4986774) role in treatment optimization of portal hypertension with propranolol in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 60 patients with LC who received propranolol therapy at a daily dose of 30 mg for 14 days. The efficacy of treatment was assessed by ultrasonography measuring the linear blood flow velocity of portal vein. Genotyping of CYP2D6*4, CYP2D6*6, CYP2D6*10, CYP2D6*41 and CYP2D6*3 was carried out by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Evaluation of the CYP2D6 activity was carried out by determining the ratio of pinoline and its metabolite concentration in morning urine using high performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Positive hemodynamics in the form of any increase in the mean linear blood flow velocity of the portal vein compared to baseline was observed in 41 patients. Portal vein mean linear blood flow rate increased from 10.43.9 to 14.74.3 cm/s (p0.001). Of these, 29 patients showed an increase in this indicator by 20% from the initial one with a dynamic of 5.5 cm/s (p0.001). The regression analysis constructed by us revealed the presence of a statistically significant effect of the CYP2D6 gene polymorphic marker G1846A carriage on the propranolol therapeutic effect (p0.05). There was no statistically significant effect of polymorphic markers T1707del, C100T, G2988A, and A2549del of the CYP2D6 gene (p0.05). No convincing reliable dependence of CYP2D6 activity on the severity of LC was revealed (p0.05). CONCLUSION: An association was found between CYP2D6 gene polymorphic marker G1846A carriage and the hemodynamic effect of propranolol in patients with LC of the Russian population. There is a more significant positive dynamics of manifestations of portal hypertension on the background of propranolol therapy in carriers of the homozygous GG CYP2D6*4 genotype, in contrast to patients with the heterozygous GA genotype. Based on the results of the study, an algorithm has been developed for personalizing the treatment of patients with LC with nonselective b-adrenergic blockers using the method of CYP2D6 genotyping. Carriage of polymorphic markers T1707del, C100T, G2988A and A2549del gene CYP2D6 does not affect the effectiveness of propranolol therapy in patients with LC.

[Evaluation of the association of polymorphisms of the CYP2C8 gene with the efficacy and safety of ketorolac in patients with postoperative pain syndrome].

AIM: To evaluate the possible association of CYP2C8 gene polymorphisms with the clinical efficacy and safety of ketorolac in relation to postoperative pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 107 patients after video laparoscopic cholecystectomy, who received ketorolac (30 mg 2.0 w/m 3 r/d) as postoperative pain relief. All patients were genotyped for CYP2C8. The pain syndrome was assessed using the visual analog scale, the McGill pain questionnaire. The profile of adverse reactions was assessed by the dynamics of red blood counts, as a possible trigger for the development of gastrointestinal bleeding according to the method of global assessment of triggers (Global Trigger Tool GTT). RESULTS: According to visual analog scale data: in carriers of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080) after 12, 24, 36, 48 hours the intensity of pain syndrome is lower than in carriers of the wild type (p0.05). According to the McGill pain questionnaire, there were no statistically significant differences in pain intensity between the two groups. CONCLUSION: In carriers of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080), the effectiveness of anesthesia with ketorolac is higher than in carriers of the wild type. Carriage of the genotype CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) and CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681) does not affect the risk of developing adverse reactions after ketorolac anesthesia.

[CYP2C8, PTGS-1, 2 gene polymorphisms prevalence associated with sensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs among North Caucasus ethnic groups].

AIM: Find the prevalence of CYP2C8*3 (rs10509681; rs11572080), PTGS-1 (rs10306135; rs12353214) and PTGS-2 (rs20417) alleles and genotypes in four ethnic groups among Laks, Avars, Dargins and Kumyks. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study involved 400 volunteers from four ethnic groups living in Republic of Dagestan: 100 participants from each group. Carriage of polymorphic markers was determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: Minor allele frequency of the CYP2C8 (rs10509681) was 5.5% in Avars, 10% in Dargins, Laks and Kumyks 6.5% both; CYP2C8 (rs11572080) was 5.5% in Avars, 9.5% in Dargins, 6.5% in Laks, 8.5% in Kumyks; PTGS-1 (rs10306135) in Avars 10.5%, in Dargins 13.0%, in Laks 9.5% and Kumyks 7.5%; PTGS-1 (rs12353214) in Avars 9.0%, in Dargins 4.5%, in Laks 7.5%, in Kumyks 8.0%; PTGS-2 (rs20417) in Avars 1.0%, in Dargins 2.5%, in Laks 3.5%, in Kumyks 5.0%. There were no significant differences between groups. CONCLUSION: The study of CYP2C8 and PTGS-1 and 2 gene polymorphisms is promising for predicting the effectiveness and safety of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy, due to the high prevalence of these polymorphisms in ethnic groups in the North Caucasus.

[Analysis of carrying clinically significant allelic variants of TPMT and DPYD genes associated with the response to drug therapy in cancer practice among 9 ethnic groups of the Russian Federation].

AIM: To study the peculiarities of carrying clinically significant allelic variants of TPMT and DPYD genes associated with the response to drug therapy in cancer practice among 9 ethnic groups of the Russian Federation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 1446 conditionally healthy volunteers from 9 ethnic groups. Carriage of polymorphic TPMT and DPYD gene markers was detected by the Real-Time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) method. RESULTS: In all ethnic groups, the distribution of genotypes and alleles matched the equilibrium of Hardy-Weinberg. TPMT*3A (rs1800460) and TPMT*3C (rs1142345) were observed in heterozygous state in all investigated ethnic groups. In the Kabardinian group (n=204) the frequency of the TPMT*3A minor allele (MAF, %) was 2.94%; Balkars (n=200) 1.25%; Ossetians (n=239) 1.67%; Chuvashes (n=238) 1.89%: Mari (n=206) 1.21%; Tatars (n=141) 1.77%; Russians (n=134) 4.85%. The frequency of the TPMT*3C minor allele (MAF, %) in the Kabardinian group (n=204) MAF was 4.90%; Balkars (n=200) 1. 75%; Buryats (n=114) 0.44%; Ossetians (n=239) 1.88%; Chuvashes (n=238) 1.68%: Mari (n=206) 1.21%; Tatars (n=141) 1.42%; Russians (n=134) 4.48%. The results of the analysis of DPYD*2A polymorphism (rs3918290) demonstrated ethnic peculiarities of distribution. In the heterozygous state it was found only in the groups of Kabardins (n=204, MAF 1.22%), Balkars (n=200, MAF 2.00%), and Ossetians (n=239, MAF 0.63%). CONCLUSION: The results obtained in the study will be useful for developing personalized algorithms of antitumor therapy in cancer practice, including those aimed at increasing the safety of chemotherapy.
