CYP2C19 polymorphisms are important factors for proton pump inhibitor-based therapy. We examined the genotypes and analyzed distribution among ethnicities clinical outcomes in Indonesia. employed polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method to determine evaluated inflammation severity with updated Sydney system. For CYP2C19*2, 46.4% were homozygous wild-type allele,...

CYP2C19 is an important human drug-metabolizing enzyme that metabolizes a number of clinically used drugs including the antiulcer drug omeprazole, the anxiolytic drug diazepam, the beta-blocker propranolol, the antimalarial drug proguanil, certain antidepressants and barbiturates, and the prototype substrate S-mephenytoin. Previous studies show that compounds such as rifampicin and dexamethason...

Clopidogrel nonresponsiveness increases the recurrence of cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous studies found that genetic variants such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYP2C19 and PON1 may influence clopidogrel response, cause high platelet reactivity (HPR) and increase cardiovascular events. However, these studies were inc...

The impact of pharmacogenetic variants of cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) on clopidogrel-mediated effects on platelet inhibition, inflammatory response and endothelial function, as well as risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), in coronary heart patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was investigated. To this end, we assessed the residual platelet aggregation r...

Inter-individual pharmacokinetic variation of H(2)-receptor antagonist is related to genetic polymorphism of CYP2C19. We investigated the frequency of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism and the treatment duration of cimetidine by CYP2C19 genotypes in functional dyspeptic patients without definite causes who were treated with cimetidine in Korea. One hundred subjects with functional dyspepsia particip...

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP2C19, that demonstrates genetic polymorphism with 21 mutant alleles. The subjects can be divided into 2 groups with respect to CYP2C19 phenotypes viz., extensive metabolizers (EMs) and poor metabolizers (PMs) of PPIs. This division results in marked interindividual variations in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic...

AIMS Several studies have demonstrated that the mutant *2 allele of the CYP2C19 681G>A loss-of-function polymorphism is associated with diminished metabolization of clopidogrel into its active thiol metabolite and an attenuated platelet response to clopidogrel treatment. It is not known whether patients carrying the mutant CYP2C19*2 allele have a higher risk of stent thrombosis (ST) compared wi...

Upon characterization of baculovirus-expressed cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2C19, it was observed that this enzyme metabolized (1/2) bufuralol to 1*hydroxybufuralol, a reaction previously understood to be selectively catalyzed by CYP2D6. The apparent Km for this reaction was 36 mM with recombinant CYP2C19, approximately 7-fold higher than for recombinant CYP2D6. The intrinsic clearance for this react...

BACKGROUND As compared with whites, East Asians more often carry the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) allele with the CYP2C19*3 variant. The influence of the CYP2C19 LOF alleles (*2 and *3) on clopidogrel response and clinical outcomes in East Asians with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been reported. We sought to evaluate the effect of the CYP2C19 variants on clopido...
