RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Radioactive iodine therapy is considered for patients with certain clinicopathological factors that predict a significant risk of recurrence, distant metastases of thyroid cancer or disease-specific mortality. The aim of the study was to investigate the association between polymorphisms of genes, products of which are involved in the processes of DNA damage response and autophagy, and the adverse reactions of radioiodine therapy in thyroid cancer patients. METHODS: The study included 181 patients (37 men, 144 women; median age 56 [41; 66.3] years) with histologically confirmed thyroid cancer and a history of thyroidectomy who received radioiodine therapy. NFKB1, ATM, ATG16L2, ATG10, TGFB1, and TNF polymorphisms were determined by allele-specific realtime-PCR. RESULTS: The frequency of adverse reactions was the following: gastrointestinal symptoms - 57.9â¯%, local symptoms - 65.8â¯%, cerebral symptoms - 46.8â¯%, fatigue - 54.4â¯%; signs of sialoadenitis six months after radioiodine therapy - 25.2â¯%. TT genotype carriers of ATG10 rs1864183 had higher frequency of gastrointestinal symptoms (vs. CC+CT), the CC genotype carriers of ATG10 rs10514231 had significantly more frequent cerebral symptoms (vs. CT+TT), as well as AA genotype carriers of TGFB1 rs1800469 (vs. AG+GG). CC genotype of ATG10 rs10514231 increased the incidence of radioiodine-induced fatigue, whereas GA genotype of the ATM rs11212570 had a protective role against fatigue. TGFB1 rs1800469 was associated with signs of sialoadenitis six months after radioiodine therapy. CONCLUSIONS: Genetic factors may contribute to the occurrence of adverse reactions of radioiodine therapy in thyroid cancer patients.

RESUMO
Variants in the CES1 gene encoding carboxylesterase 1 may affect the metabolism of enalapril to the active metabolite enalaprilat. It was shown that the A allele of rs71647871 and the C allele of rs2244613 led to a decrease in plasma enalaprilat concentrations. This study aimed to estimate the effect of structural haplotypes of CES1 containing the pseudogene CES1P1, or a hybrid of the gene and the pseudogene CES1A2, on the pharmacokinetics of enalapril. We included 286 Caucasian patients with arterial hypertension treated with enalapril. Genotyping was performed using real-time PCR and long-range PCR. Peak and trough plasma enalaprilat concentrations were lower in carriers of CES1A2. The studied haplotypes were in linkage disequilibrium with rs2244613: generally, the A allele was in the haplotype containing the CES1P1, and the C allele was in the haplotype with the CES1A2. Thus, carriers of CES1A2 have reduced CES1 activity against enalapril. Linkage disequilibrium of the haplotype containing the CES1P1 or CES1A2 with rs2244613 should be taken into account when genotyping the CES1 gene.

The angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril is hydrolysed to an active metabolite, enalaprilat, in the liver via carboxylesterase 1 (CES1). Previous studies show that variant rs71647871 in the CES1 gene affects the pharmacokinetics of enalapril on liver samples as well as healthy volunteers. This study included 286 Caucasian patients with arterial hypertension who received enalapril. The concentrations of enalapril and enalaprilat were determined before subsequent intake of the drug and 4 h after it with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometric detection. The study included genetic markers as follows: rs2244613, rs71647871 (c.428G>A, p.G143E) and three SNPs indicating the presence of a subtype CES1A1c (rs12149368, rs111604615 and rs201577108). Mean peak and trough enalaprilat concentrations, adjusted by clinical variables, were significantly lower in CES1 rs2244613 heterozygotes (by 16.6% and 19.6%) and in CC homozygotes (by 32.7% and 41.4%) vs. the AA genotype. In CES1A1c homozygotes, adjusted mean enalaprilat concentrations were 75% lower vs. heterozygotes and wild-type (WT) homozygotes. Pharmacogenetic markers of the CES1 gene may be a promising predictor for individualisation when prescribing enalapril.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Individual sensitivity to many widely used drugs is significantly associated with genetic factors. The purpose of our work was to develop an instrument for simultaneous determination of the most clinically relevant pharmacogenetic markers to allow personalized treatment, mainly in patients with cardiovascular diseases. METHODS: Multiplex one-step polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by hybridization on a low-density biochip was applied to interrogate 15 polymorphisms in the following eight genes: VKORC1 -1639 G>A, CYP4F2 1297 G>A, GGCX 2374 C>G, CYP2C9 *2,*3 (430 C>T, 1075 A>C), CYP2D6 *3,*4, *6, *9, *41 (2549delA, 1846 G>A, 1707delT, 2615_2617delAAG, 2988 G>A), CYP2C19 *2,*3,*17 (681 G>A, 636 G>A, -806 C>T), ABCB1 (3435 C>T), SLCO1B1 *5. RESULTS: Two hundred nineteen patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and 48 female patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer (BC) were genotyped. Of the 219 CVD patients, 203 (92.7%) carried one or more actionable at-risk genotypes based on VKORC1/CYP2C9, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, SLCO1B1, and CYP2D6 genotypes. Among them, 67 patients (30.6%) carried one, 58 patients (26.5%) carried two, 51 patients (23.3%) carried three, 26 patients (11.9%) carried four, and one patient (0.4%) carried five risk actionable genotypes. In the ER-positive BC group 12 patients (25%) were CYP2D6 intermediate or poor metabolizers. CONCLUSIONS: The developed biochip is applicable for rapid and robust genotyping of patients who were taking a wide spectrum of medications to optimize drugs and dosage and avoid adverse drug reactions in cardiology, oncology, psychiatry, rheumatology and gastroenterology.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Acenocoumarol dose is normally determined via step-by-step adjustment process based on International Normalized Ratio (INR) measurements. During this time, the risk of adverse reactions is especially high. Several genotype-based acenocoumarol dosing algorithms have been created to predict ideal doses at the start of anticoagulant therapy. METHODS: Nine dosing algorithms were selected through a literature search. These were evaluated using a cohort of 63 patients with atrial fibrillation receiving acenocoumarol therapy. RESULTS: None of the existing algorithms could predict the ideal acenocoumarol dose in 50% of Russian patients. The Wolkanin-Bartnik algorithtm based on European population was the best-performing one with the highest correlation values (r=0.397), mean absolute error (MAE) 0.82 (±0.61). EU-PACT also managed to give an estimate within the ideal range in 43% of the cases. The two least accurate results were yielded by the Indian population-based algorithms. Among patients receiving amiodarone, algorithms by Schie and Tong proved to be the most effective with the MAE of 0.48±0.42 mg/day and 0.56±0.31 mg/day, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Patient ethnicity and amiodarone intake are factors that must be considered when building future algorithms. Further research is required to find the perfect dosing formula of acenocoumarol maintenance doses in Russian patients.

BACKGROUND: Сytochrome P450 CYP2D6 activity affects antipsychotic therapy safety. 1846G>A (CYP2D6*4) polymorphism frequency varies among different ethnic groups. METHODS: We studied 1846G>A polymorphism in Tatar and Russian schizophrenic patients taking different antipsychotics and association of 1846G>A polymorphism and extrapyramidal disorders (EPD) frequency in schizophrenic patients on haloperidol monotherapy in daily doses up to 20 mg. RESULTS: Heterozygous 1846GA genotype frequency among Tatars was lower (23.8% vs. 32.4% in Russians), but the differences did not reach statistical significance. The 1846A allele frequency among Tatars was also lower (11.9% vs. 24.3% in Russians), but the difference was not quite significant (p=0.0592). Average daily haloperidol dose in the group without EPD was significantly higher than in the group with EPD (11.35±4.6 vs. 13.87±3.3 mg, p=0.0252), but average daily haloperidol dose/weight ratios in the compared groups had no significant differences. A statistically significant association between EPD development and heterozygous 1846GA genotype and 1846A allele carrier frequency was revealed among all schizophrenic patients and among those of Tatars. CONCLUSIONS: Further well-designed pharmacogenetic studies in different Russian regions are needed to improve psychotropic therapy safety and to establish evidence-based indications for pharmacogenetic testing in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Oral anticoagulants are commonly used to treat patients with thromboembolic pathology. Genetic variations could influence personal response to anticoagulant drugs. Acenocoumarol (AC) is a vitamin K antagonist used in anticoagulant therapy and as a prophylaxis measure in Europe. In this study, we assessed the effect of CYP4F2 rs2108622, ABCB1, and GGCX polymorphisms on the safety profile and regime dosing of AC in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. METHODS: Fifty patients aged 40-70 years were included. All patients received AC in the dose of 1-6 mg daily with a target international normalized ratio of 2.0-3.0. Genotyping for polymorphism markers C3435T for the ABCB1 gene, rs2108622 for the CYP4F2 gene, and rs11676382 for the GGCX gene were designed using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism. Statistical analysis was performed using the Fisher exact test and the Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS: We found that CYP4F2 rs2108622 CT carriers required a higher AC dose than CC (p=0.0366), and CT and TT carriers required a higher AC dose than CC (p=0.0314). CONCLUSIONS: We found that ABCB1 CT and TT genotypes are associated with a higher risk of bleeding. No influence of ABCB1 and GGCX polymorphisms on the doses of AC was established. CYP4F2 could still be a genetic factor responsible for the personal variability of AC metabolism.
