Substantiation of a clopidogrel metabolism-associated gene (CYP2C19) variation among healthy individuals.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is essential to investigate the prevalence of CYP2C19 alleles that affect drug metabolism. This study measures the allelic and genotypic frequencies of CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LoF) alleles CYP2C19∗2, CYP2C19∗3, and gain-of-function (GoF) alleles CYP2C19∗17 in the general population.

Methodology

The study involved 300 healthy subjects between the ages of 18 and 85 recruited by simple random sampling. Allele-specific touchdown PCR was employed to identify the various alleles. The genotype and allele frequencies were calculated and checked for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The phenotypic prediction of ultra-rapid metabolizer (UM = ∗17/∗17), extensive metabolizer (EM = ∗1/∗17, ∗1/∗1), intermediate metabolizer (IM = ∗1/∗2, ∗1/∗3, ∗2/∗17) and poor metabolizer (PM = ∗2/∗2, ∗2/∗3, ∗3/∗3) was made based on their genotype.

Results

The allele frequency of CYP2C19∗2, CYP2C19∗3, and CYP2C19∗17 was 0.365, 0.0033, and 0.18, respectively. The IM phenotype predominated with an overall frequency of 46.67%, including 101 subjects with ∗1/∗2, two subjects with ∗1/∗3, and 37 subjects with ∗2/∗17 genotype. This was followed by EM phenotype with an overall frequency of 35%, including 35 subjects with ∗1/∗17 and 70 subjects with ∗1/∗1 genotype. PM phenotype had an overall frequency of 12.67%, including 38 subjects with ∗2/∗2 genotype, and UM phenotype had an overall frequency of 5.67%, including 17 subjects with ∗17/∗17 genotype.

Conclusion

Given the high allelic frequency of PM in the study population, a pre-treatment test to identify the individual's genotype may be recommended to decide the dosage, monitor the drug response, and avoid adverse drug reactions.

Project description:Cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) is the principal enzyme responsible for converting clopidogrel into its active metabolite, and common genetic variants have been identified, most notably CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17, that are believed to alter its activity and expression, respectively.We evaluated whether the consequences of the CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 variants on clopidogrel response were independent of each other or genetically linked through linkage disequilibrium (LD).We genotyped the CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 variants in 621 members of the Pharmacogenomics of Anti-Platelet Intervention (PAPI) Study and evaluated the effects of these polymorphisms singly and then jointly, taking into account LD, on clopidogrel prodrug level, clopidogrel active metabolite level, and adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP)-stimulated platelet aggregation before and after clopidogrel exposure.The CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 variants were in LD (|D'| = 1.0; r(2) = 0.07). In association analyses that did and did not account for the effects of CYP2C19*17, CYP2C19*2 was strongly associated with levels of clopidogrel active metabolite (? = -5.24, P = 3.0 × 10(-9) and ? = -5.36, P = 3.3 × 10(-14) , respectively) and posttreatment ADP-stimulated platelet aggregation (? = 7.55, P = 2.9 × 10(-16) and ? = 7.51, P = 7.0 × 10(-15) , respectively). In contrast, CYP2C19*17 was marginally associated with clopidogrel active metabolite levels and ADP-stimulated platelet aggregation before (? = 1.57, P = 0.04 and ? = -1.98, P = 0.01, respectively) but not after (? = 0.40, P = 0.59 and ? = -0.13, P = 0.69, respectively) adjustment for the CYP2C19*2 variant. Stratified analyses of CYP2C19*2/CYP2C19*17 genotype combinations revealed that CYP2C19*2, and not CYP2C19*17, was the primary determinant in altering clopidogrel response.Our results suggest that CYP2C19*17 has a small (if any) effect on clopidogrel-related traits and that the observed effect of this variant is due to LD with the CYP2C19*2 loss-of-function variant.
