Influence of SH2B3, MTHFD1L, GGCX, and ITGB3 Gene Polymorphisms on theVariability on Warfarin Dosage Requirements and Susceptibility to CVD in the Jordanian Population.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the SH2B3, MTHFD1L, GGCX, and ITGB3 gene variants on the efficacy of warfarin treatment and its effects on the risk of cardiovascular disorders in Jordanian patients. The selected genes and their polymorphisms are involved in many Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) associated with cardiovascular disease and the variability of warfarin therapy. The current study conducted a genetic association and pharmacogenetics study in (212) Jordanian cardiovascular patients treated with warfarin and (213) healthy controls. DNA extraction and the Mass ARRAY™ system were used to genotype ten selected polymorphisms within four genes (SH2B3, MTHFD1L, GGCX, and ITGB3). This study confirmed a
