A cardiovascular phenotype in warfarin-resistant Vkorc1 mutant rats.
BACKGROUND: The inhibition of the vitamin K cycle by warfarin promotes arterial calcification in the rat. Conceivably, genetically determined vitamin K-deficiency owing to a mutant epoxide reductase subcomponent 1 (Vkorc1) gene, a key component of the vitamin K cycle, might also promote arterial calcification. In the absence of an available Vkorc1 gene knockout model we used a wild-derived Vkor...
متن کاملAssociation of Warfarin Therapy with APOE and VKORC1 Genes Polymorphism in Iranian Population
Warfarin is a vitamin K antagonist that genetic and non-genetic factors affected on its doserequirement in the patients with cardio vascular disease. The aim of this study was whetherthe APOE and VKORC1 polymorphisms influence on warfarin dose requirements in the partof Iranian patients. Blood samples were collected from 86 warfarin-treated patients. Afterextraction of genomic DNA, the VKORC1 (...
متن کاملEffect of VKORC1 Gene Polymorphism on Warfarin Response in Razavi Khorasan Province Cardiovascular Patients
Background and Aims: Warfarin is an anticoagulant agent used for many years in treating various clinical conditions such as thromboembolisms in cardiovascular disease. Some patients require different doses of warfarin to reach the therapeutic international normalized ratio ratio. These patients have specific demographic characteristics. Genetic polymorphisms in specific genes have been reported...

متن کاملIdentification of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 polymorphisms in Iranian patients who are under warfarin therapy
BACKGROUND Although catalytic properties of different genetic polymorphisms of VKORC1 and CYP2C9 products have been identified, there is limited study available regarding warfarin dose requirement in Iranian patient population. This study investigates the impact of these polymorphisms on 115 patients, referred to Payvand Clinical and Specialty Laboratory for determining the appropriate dose of ...
