Establishment of a CYP2C19 genotyping assay for clinical use.
Conversion of clopidogrel (Plavix) to its active metabolite is catalyzed largely by the P450 enzyme 2C19 (CYP2C19). Numerous allelic variants of CYP2C19 exist. The *1 allele is considered wild type, whereas the *2 and *3 alleles have no in vivo enzymatic activity. Conversely, the *17 allele has increased expression, resulting in increased clopidogrel activation. Poor metabolizers (*2/*2 and *2/...
متن کاملValidation of interleukin 28B genotyping assay for clinical use.
OBJECTIVES The favorable CC genotype at rs12979860 upstream of the interleukin (IL)-28B gene is correlated with a greater post-treatment sustained virologic response rate in chronic hepatitis C infected patients. We report on our validation of a clinical genotyping assay for rs12979860 polymorphisms in the IL28B locus. DESIGN AND METHODS The rs12979860 genotype was determined using a TaqMan® ...
متن کاملImprovements in Helicobacter pylori eradication rates through clinical CYP2C19 genotyping.
Lansoprazole (LPZ), amoxicillin (AMPC) and clarithromycin (CAM) are commonly used drugs (LAC regimen) for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication, but the eradication rate with this regimen was reported to be 70% to 90%. A few studies have reported that a successful eradication was associated with the CYP2C19 genotype, which influences the metabolism of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) includin...
متن کاملA Real-Time RT-PCR Assay for Genotyping of Rotavirus Strains
Background: Human rotavirus (HRV) is the causative agent of severe gastroenteritis in children and responsible for two million hospitalizations and more than a half-million deaths annually. Sequence characteristics of the gene segments encoding the VP7 and VP4 proteins are used for the genotype classification of rotavirus. A wide variety of molecular methods are available, mainly based on rever...
متن کاملDevelopment of a rapid clinical TPMT genotyping assay.
OBJECTIVES Thiopurine compounds are commonly used in the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and as immunosuppressants following organ transplantation or for treatment of various autoimmune disorders. Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) is required for detoxification, through S-methylation, of 6-thioguanine nucleotides (TGNs), a byproduct of thiopurine metabolism. Single nucl...
