VKORC1 and CYP2C9 polymorphisms are used to predict the safe dose of oral anticoagulant therapy. A new variant of CYP4F2 (V433M) has recently been related to the required warfarin dose. We evaluated its influence in earliest response to acenocoumarol in 100 selected men who started anticoagulation (3 mg for 3 consecutive days). V433M genotype exerted a gene dosage-dependent effect on the decrease of factors II, VII, IX, and X in the earliest response to acenocoumarol, with homozygous 433V subjects being the most sensitive. Similarly, after the initiation of therapy, international normalized ratio also experienced a gene dosage-dependent effect (P = .015), and 433V subjects needed 4 mg/week less than 433M carriers to achieve a steady anticoagulation (P = .043). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed a significant contribution of V433M polymorphism to variability of both early international normalized ratio value (R(2) = 0.14) and dose requirements (R(2) = 0.19). Our data underline the relevant role of CYP4F2 V433M polymorphism in the pharmacogenetics of coumarin anticoagulants.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study investigates how genetic variations (CYP2C9, VKORC1, and CYP4F2) affect the effectiveness and dosage of warfarin, a blood-thinning medication, on achieving stable international normalized ratio (INR) levels.
  • - It analyzed over 69,000 INR-warfarin records from nearly 2,600 patients, finding that those with certain genetic markers showed different INR outcomes and required different doses of warfarin compared to those without these variants.
  • - The findings suggest that pharmacogenetics can help improve warfarin dosing and INR control, potentially leading to better clinical outcomes for patients with these genetic variations.

Background: Cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) enzyme is a member of the CYP4 family responsible for the metabolism of fatty acids, therapeutic drugs, and signaling molecules such as arachidonic acid, tocopherols, and vitamin K. Several reports have demonstrated that the missense variant CYP4F2*3 (V433M) causes decreased activity of CYP4F2 and inter-individual variations in warfarin dose in different ethnic groups. However, the molecular pathogenicity mechanism of missense V433M in CYP4F2 at the atomic level has not yet been completely elucidated.

Genes in the epoxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism leading to vasoactive eicosanoids, mainly 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic (20-HETE) and epoxyeicosatrienoic (EETs) acids, have been related to glucose-induced renal damage in preclinical reports. We genotyped 1088 diabetic kidney disease (DKD) patients and controls for seven polymorphisms in five genes (, , , , and ) along this metabolic route and evaluated their effect on DKD risk, clinical outcomes, and the plasma/urine levels of eicosanoids measured by LC/MS/MS and immunoenzymatic assays. The 433M variant allele was associated with lower incidence of DKD (OR = 0.

Background: Several studies optimized the warfarin dose based on CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, VKORC1 -1639 G > A, CYP4F2 V433M. But, the information on the rare variants is lacking. In this study, we have explored the prevalence of common and rare pharmacogenetic determinants of warfarin and determined their damaging nature.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes metabolize arachidonic acid to vasoactive eicosanoids such as epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), whilst soluble epoxide hydrolase, encoded by the EPHX2 gene, is in charge of EETs degradation. We aimed to analyze the influence of common, functional polymorphisms in four genes of the donor on the renal biopsy scores independently assigned by pathologists. Additionally, we examined whether this score or the presence of these SNPs were independent risk factors of clinical outcomes in the first year after grafting.
