Pharmacogenetics in Psychiatry
2018Mental illness represents a major health issue both at the individual and at the socioeconomical level. This is partly due to the current suboptimal treatment options: existing psychotropic medications, including antidepressants, antipsychotics, and mood stabilizers, are effective only in a subset of patients or produce partial response and they are ...

Pharmacogenetics of Irinotecan
Current Medicinal Chemistry-Anti-Cancer Agents, 2003Pharmacogenetics focuses on intersubjects variation in therapeutic drug effects and toxicity depending on genetic polymorphisms. This is particularly interesting in oncology since anticancer drugs usually have a narrow margin of safety. Irinotecan [7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin] is used in cancer chemotherapy as a ...

Pharmacogenetics and the Fetus
New England Journal of Medicine, 1982It is well accepted in clinical medicine that there is wide variation between patients in the handling of and response to drugs; these differences are based in part on genetic mechanisms. Pharmacogenetic differences among patients contribute to altered drug kinetics, resulting in failure of therapy or in side effects related to blood levels after ...

Pharmacogenetics and psychopharmacotherapy
Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics, 2000Response to drugs can vary between individuals and between different ethnic populations. The biological (age, gender, disease and genetics), cultural and environmental factors which contribute to these variations are considered in this review. The most important aspect is the genetic variability between individuals in their ability to metabolize drugs ...

Depression and Pharmacogenetics
Archives of Psychiatric Nursing, 2018Depression is the most common and leading devastating psychiatric illness that affects a majority of the world population. The treatment of depression has been a challenge for a majority of patients and healthcare practitioners. The advent of pharmacogenomics (PGx) empowered the Food and Drug Administration to approve some antidepressant biomarkers for

Drug Metabolism and Drug Interactions, 2020
Abstract Pain is a significant problem in medicine. The use of PGx markers to personalize postoperative analgesia can increase its effectiveness and avoid undesirable reactions. This article describes the mechanisms of nociception and antinociception and shows the pathophysiological mechanisms of pain in the human body.

[Pharmacogenetics of immunosuppressants].
Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2015Individualized drug therapy with immunosuppressants is an hot topic in transplantation. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is currently utilized to guide therapy, but toxic or subtherapeutic concentrations can only be identified after the drug is administered.

Pharmacogenetics and Psychiatry
Current Psychiatry Reports, 2004Genetic factors play a significant role in predicting an individual's response to a drug. The response may be the desired therapeutic effect of the drug and also may be the undesirable development of adverse effects. This relationship between genes and drug response interests the pharmacogeneticist. This article aims to give an overview of the exciting

Pharmacogenetics of Sulfotransferase
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2000Cytosolic sulfotransferase catalyzes sulfoconjugation of relatively small lipophilic endobiotics and xenobiotics. At least 44 cytosolic sulfotransferases have been identified from mammals, and based on their amino acid sequences, these forms are shown to constitute five different families.
