(1) Introduction: Extrapyramidal disorders form the so-called extrapyramidal syndrome (EPS), which is characterized by the occurrence of motor disorders as a result of damage to the basal ganglia and the subcortical-thalamic connections. Often, this syndrome develops while taking medications, in particular antipsychotics (APs). (2) Purpose: To review studies of candidate genes encoding dopamine receptors as genetic predictors of development of AP-induced parkinsonism (AIP) and AP-induced tardive dyskinesia (AITD) in patients with schizophrenia. (3) Materials and Methods: A search was carried out for publications of PubMed, Web of Science, Springer, and e-Library databases by keywords and their combinations over the last 10 years. In addition, the review includes earlier publications of historical interest. Despite extensive searches of these commonly used databases and search terms, it cannot be ruled out that some publications were possibly missed. (4) Results: The review considers candidate genes encoding dopamine receptors involved in pharmacodynamics, including genes DRD1, DRD2, DRD3, and DRD4. We analyzed 18 genome-wide studies examining 37 genetic variations, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs)/polymorphisms of four candidate genes involved in the development of AIP and AITD in patients with schizophrenia. Among such a set of obtained results, only 14 positive associations were revealed: rs1799732 (141CIns/Del), rs1800497 (C/T), rs6275 (C/T), rs6275 (C/T) DRD2; rs167771 (G/A) DRD3 with AIP and rs4532 (A/G) DRD1, rs6277 (C/T), rs6275 (C/T), rs1800497 (C/T), rs1079597 (A/G), rs1799732 (141CIns/Del), rs1045280 (C/G) DRD2, rs6280 (C/T), rs905568 (C/G) DRD3 with AITD. However, at present, it should be recognized that there is no final or unique decision on the leading role of any particular SNVs/polymorphisms in the development of AIP and AITD. (5) Conclusion: Disclosure of genetic predictors of the development of AIP and AITD, as the most common neurological adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in the treatment of patients with psychiatric disorders, may provide a key to the development of a strategy for personalized prevention and treatment of the considered complication of AP therapy for schizophrenia in real clinical practice.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a clustering of at least three of the following five medical conditions: abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high serum triglycerides, and low serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Antipsychotic (AP)-induced MetS (AIMetS) is the most common adverse drug reaction (ADR) of psychiatric pharmacotherapy. Herein, we review the results of studies of blood (serum and plasma) and urinary biomarkers as predictors of AIMetS in patients with schizophrenia (Sch). We reviewed 1440 studies examining 38 blood and 19 urinary metabolic biomarkers, including urinary indicators involved in the development of AIMetS. Among the results, only positive associations were revealed. However, at present, it should be recognized that there is no consensus on the role of any particular urinary biomarker of AIMetS. Evaluation of urinary biomarkers of the development of MetS and AIMetS, as one of the most common concomitant pathological conditions in the treatment of patients with psychiatric disorders, may provide a key to the development of strategies for personalized prevention and treatment of the condition, which is considered a complication of AP therapy for Sch in clinical practice.
Apixaban is oral anticoagulant, it is widely used in prevention of stroke in non-valvular atrial fibrillation and treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Its main mechanism of action is through reversible inhibition of factor Xa. It specifically binds and inhibits both free and bound factor Xa which ultimately results in reduction in the levels of thrombin formation. Apixaban is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4 with minor contributions from CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2J2 isoenzymes. Some of the major metabolic pathways of apixaban include o-demethylation, hydroxylation, and sulfation, with o-demethylapixabansulphate being the major metabolite. The aim of this review is analysis of associated researches of single nucleotide variants (SNV) of CYP3A5 and SULT1A1 genes and search for new candidate genes reflecting effectiveness and safety of apixaban. The search for full-text publications in Russian and English languages containing key words “apixaban”, “pharmacokinetics”, “effectiveness”, “safety” was carried out amongst literature of the past twenty years with the use of eLibrary, PubMed, Web of Science, OMIM data bases. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenetics of apixaban are considered in this review. The hypothesis about CYP и SULT1A enzymes influence on apixaban metabolism was examined. To date, numerous SNVs of the CYP3A5 and SULT1A1 genes have been identified, but their potential influence on pharmacokinetics apixaban in clinical practice needs to be further studies. The role of SNVs of other genes encoding beta-oxidation enzymes of apixaban (CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2J2) and transporter proteins (ABCB1, ABCG2) in its efficacy and safety are not well understood, and ABCB1 and ABCG2 genes may be potential candidate genes for studies of the drug safety.
Antipsychotics (APs) are the base of schizophrenia pharmacotherapy. There are large individual differences in effectiveness and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) of APs. There is an urgent need for a personalized approach to the therapy. Genetic factors are predisposed to patient's response to APs therapy. Pharmacogenetic studies of APs have examined a number of single nucleotide variants (SNVs), of which only a few were associated with therapeutic efficacy and ADRs development. However, only a limited number of these results have clinical applications in psychiatry. Nowadays, it seems promising to study SNVs of leptin system genes (LEP, LEPR) and neuropeptide Y (NRY). Studying the mechanisms of APs-induced weight growth will allow their transmission to a personalized approach. It will help psychiatrists in patients’ selection for the APs therapy. This will increase safety and effectiveness of the therapy, improve the quality of life and adherence to therapy in patients with schizophrenia.
The article discusses the current state of the use of pharmacogenetic testing in clinical practice in the field of psychiatry, narcology and neurology in the Russian Federation. The active introduction of pharmacogenetic testing in clinical practice contributes to a personalized approach to predicting the pharmacological response to drugs, increasing the safety and effectiveness of pharmacotherapy, complience and the quality of life of patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. In the future, an increase in the availability of pharmacogenetic testing in real clinical practice is expected.
