Pharmacogenetics [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 1999
Inter-individual variability in drug response is a major clinical problem. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are common, are responsible for a number of debilitating side effects following drug therapy and are a significant cause of death. It is now clear that much of the observed variability in drug response has a genetic basis, arising as a result of ...

Pharmacogenetics of Antidepressants [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2011
Up to 60% of depressed patients do not respond completely to antidepressants (ADs) and up to 30% do not respond at all. Genetic factors contribute for about 50% of the AD response. During the recent years the possible influence of a set of candidate genes as genetic predictors of AD response efficacy was investigated by us and others.

Pharmacogenetics of osteoporosis [PDF]

open access: yesBest Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010
Osteoporosis is a complex bone disorder with a strong genetic basis. The genetics of osteoporosis encompasses two main areas: genetics of disease susceptibility and pharmacogenetics of drug response. The former has been widely studied in the past few decades, while the latter is still largely untouched.

CYP2D6 pharmacogenetics and phenoconversion in personalized medicine

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Drug Metabolism & Toxicology, 2022
Introduction CYP2D6 contributes to the metabolism of approximately 20–25% of drugs. However, CYP2D6 is highly polymorphic and different alleles can lead to impacts ranging from null to increase in activity.

Pharmacogenomic testing and its future in community pharmacy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Although it is common to see pharmacogenomic testing used North America and Australia, it is not yet part of practice in the UK. With the promise of genomic screening becoming part of the NHS, pharmacists must equip themselves with a knowledge of how the

Pharmacogenetics of Direct Oral Anticoagulants: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Personalized Medicine, 2021
Dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban, and betrixaban are direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). Their inter-individual variability in pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics (transport and metabolism) is high, and could result from genetic ...

Moving Pharmacogenetics Into Practice: It’s All About the Evidence!

open access: yesClinical pharmacology and therapy, 2021
The evidence for pharmacogenetics has grown rapidly in recent decades. However, the strength of evidence required for the clinical implementation of pharmacogenetics is highly debated.

Pharmacogenetics: Knowledge assessment amongst Syrian pharmacists and physicians

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research, 2021
Background Pharmacogenetics targets genetic variations that influence drug response. It is relatively a new science that has not been vastly employed in most developing countries including Syria. Therefore we aimed at evaluating the depth of knowledge in

Pharmacogenetics [PDF]

open access: greenHuman Molecular Genetics, 2001
Pharmacogenetics is the variability of drug response due to inherited characteristics in individuals. Drug metabolizing enzymes have been studied for decades, first as chemical reactions and, more recently, as specific polymorphisms of known molecules.

Genetic Diversity of HLA Class I and Class II Alleles in Thai Populations: Contribution to Genotype-Guided Therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I and II are known to have association with severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) when exposing to certain drug treatment. Due to genetic differences at population level, drug hypersensitivity reactions are varied,
