Background: Some patients show warfarin resistance needing more than 70 mg of warfarin per week. In this study, we examined if C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene could be a factor of warfarin resistance.
Methods: We examined 196 blood specimens from the patients who took warfarin more than 42 mg/week for at least 1 year. The subjects consisted of 74 European Americans, 59 African Americans, 42 Hispanic Americans and 21 Asian Americans. Genotype of C3435T polymorphism was determined by using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Results: Ninety (45.9%) of the 196 patients had C3435T genotype and the remaining patients had C3435C genotype (35.7%) and T3435T genotype (18.4%). Mean dose of warfarin of patients with C3435C, C3435T and T3435T genotypes were 59.5mg/week, 56.9 mg/week and 55.6 mg/week, respectively. There was no statistical difference in the dose of warfarin between the 3 genotypes within each race.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that C3435T polymorphism of MDR1 gene is not associated with warfarin resistance.

Aims: Paclitaxel and nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel can cause early, extremely severe neutropenia, occasionally leading to fatal outcomes. As paclitaxel is a substrate of P-glycoprotein, this study aimed to investigate the impact of ABCB1 single-nucleotide variants, which encode P-glycoprotein, on early, extremely severe neutropenia in patients receiving paclitaxel/nab-paclitaxel plus ramucirumab as second-line therapy for unresectable advanced/recurrent gastric cancer.
Methods: We analysed patients treated at Aichi Cancer Center Hospital from January 2018 to August 2023, with DNA samples stored in the Cancer BioBank Aichi.

Background: Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility in Vietnamese children currently get low efficiency. There are causes of treatment failure, among host genetic factors namely MDR1 C3435T and CYP2C19 affect the absorption and metabolism of proton pump inhibitors - a crucial component of eradication therapy. The study aimed to investigate the effect of MDR1 C3435T and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on the cure rate.

In this study, we investigated whether matched and mismatched multidrug resistance gene (MDR1) genotypes (G2677TA, C1236T and C3435T) were associated with prognosis in patients after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). One hundred patients after transplantation and their donors were enrolled. Matched MDR1 G2677TA donor-recipient was associated with an increased risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM) (29.
