Effect of CYP2C9, PTGS-1 and PTGS-2 gene polymorphisms on the efficiency and safety of postoperative analgesia with ketoprofen.

OBJECTIVES: Patients undergoing cardiac surgery develop post-sternotomy pain syndrome. The aim of this study was evaluation of the influence of CYP2C9, PTGS-1 and PTGS-2 genes polymorphisms on the efficacy and safety of postoperative analgesia with ketoprofen in patients with coronary artery disease after cardiac surgery. METHODS: The study included 90 patients undergoing cardiac surgery. A real-time polymerase chain reaction was used for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). Pain intensity was measured by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Dyspeptic symptoms were evaluated using the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS). Acute kidney injury (AKI) was determined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. RESULTS: Pain intensity by the NRS score was significantly higher in patients with CYP2C9*3 АA genotype compared to АC genotype: 7 [1,10] and 6 [2,7] (p=0.003); 7 [1,10] and 6 [2,7] (p=0.04); 6 [0; 10] and 5 [2,6] (p=0.04); 5 [0; 8] and 3 [0; 8] (p=0.02), on days 1, 2, 3 and 5 in the postoperative period, respectively. GSRS score was higher in patients with CYP2C9*2 CT genotype compared to CС genotype: 19 [15; 42] and 18 [15,36] (p=0.04), respectively. There were no significant differences in the pain intensity, dyspepsia severity and AKI frequency in patients with homozygous and heterozygous genotypes for PTGS-1 rs10306135, PTGS-1 rs12353214, PTGS-2 rs20417. CONCLUSIONS: CYP2C9*3 and CYP2C9*2 gene polymorphisms may affect efficacy and safety of postoperative analgesia with ketoprofen in patients with coronary artery disease after cardiac surgery.

Effect of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ABCB1 Gene Polymorphisms on Rivaroxaban Pharmacokinetics in Patients Undergoing Total Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery.

INTRODUCTION: Population ageing in developed countries will inevitably increase the need for knee and hip replacement surgery. Over the years, direct oral anticoagulants, such as rivaroxaban, have been widely used for thromboprophylaxis in patients undergoing knee and hip replacement surgery. The study of pharmacogenetic characteristics of rivaroxaban is important for enhancing the effectiveness and safety of rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis. AIM: Evaluation of CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms influence on rivaroxaban pharmacokinetics and prothrombin time dynamics in patients undergoing total hip and knee replacement surgery. METHODS: The study included 78 patients undergoing total hip and knee replacement surgery. The patients received 10 mg of rivaroxaban once a day. Genotyping of polymorphisms ABCB1 rs1045642, ABCB1 rs4148738, CYP3A4 rs35599367 and CYP3A5 rs776746 was performed. Peak steady-state and trough steady-state rivaroxaban concentrations were determined. Prothrombin time was also evaluated. RESULTS: The study revealed the following haplotypes: (1) ABCB1 rs1045642-CYP3A4 rs35599367 and (2) ABCB1 rs4148738-CYP3A4 rs35599367. The analysis of the peak steady-state rivaroxaban concentration between mutant haplotypes and wild haplotypes revealed no significant differences. However, there was a statistically significant average correlation between peak steady-state rivaroxaban concentration and prothrombin time (r = 0.421; r2 = 0.178; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: No significant difference was identified in peak steady-state rivaroxaban concentration between mutant haplotypes and wild haplotypes. The revealed statistically significant average correlation between the prothrombin time and peak steady-state rivaroxaban concentration is important in clinical practice for assessing the anticoagulant activity of rivaroxaban.

The impact of ABCB1 (rs1045642 and rs4148738) and CES1 (rs2244613) gene polymorphisms on dabigatran equilibrium peak concentration in patients after total knee arthroplasty.

BACKGROUND: Non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are commonly used for prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in orthopedic patients. Despite known safety and high potency of NOACs, potential interactions of NOACs with genetic polymorphisms are poorly understood. Dabigatran etexilate is one of the most commonly prescribed direct thrombin inhibitors for the prevention of VTE. The objectives of this study were to assess the effect of ABCB1 (rs1045642 and rs4148738) and CES1 (rs2244613) polymorphisms on dabigatran pharmacokinetics in patients after total knee arthroplasty. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 60 patients, aged 37-81 years, who underwent surgery for knee replacement have been included in the study. VTE prophylaxis was conducted via administration of dabigatran etexilate 220 mg once daily. Genotyping for carrier state of polymorphic variants such as rs1045642 and rs4148738 of the ABCB1 gene and rs2244613 of the CES1 gene was carried out using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). We also measured the peak and trough concentrations of plasma dabigatran by using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS: Our study revealed that TT genotype of rs1045642 polymorphism of the ABCB1 gene was associated with higher dabigatran equilibrium peak concentrations and the higher risk of bleeding than the presence of CC genotype (p<0.008). There was no statistically significant genotype-dependent difference in the trough concentrations between rs1045642 and rs4148738 of the ABCB1 gene and rs2244613 of the CES1 gene. CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that the polymorphisms of ABCB1 rs1045642 may have a prominent contribution to the safety of dabigatran in patients after knee surgery. Moreover, TT genotype may be associated with the higher risk of hemorrhagic complications in this population. There were no influence of polymorphism of ABCB1 rs4148738 and CES1 rs2244613 on dabigatran peak and through concentrations. Larger studies are needed to confirm our observations.

Genetic Polymorphisms of Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and Transport Proteins in a Russian Population and Three Ethnic Groups of Dagestan.

AIM: The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of polymorphic markers of the CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, SLCO1B1, and ABCB1 genes among the three ethnic groups in Dagestan and compare it with the carrier frequency of these markers among the Russian population living in Moscow. METHODS: The study involved 186 healthy, unrelated, and chronic medication-free volunteers (53 males and 133 females) of the three ethnic groups in the Dagestan Republic: 46 Laks, 90 Avars, and 50 Dargins. Genotyping was performed using real-time polymerase chain reaction-based methods. The allelic prevalences of the three Dagestan peoples were compared with ethnic Russians from the Moscow region. RESULTS: Statistically significant differences for the following gene polymorphisms: CYP2C19*17, CYP2C9*3, ABCB1 (C3435T), SLCO1B1*5 were found between the Russian population and the three ethnic groups of the Dagestan republic. CONCLUSION: The data obtained from this study will help with prioritization genotyping in the region.
