The C50T polymorphism of the cyclooxygenase-1 gene and the risk of thrombotic events during low-dose therapy with acetyl salicylic acid

Abstract: Aspirin prevents thrombotic events by inhibiting platelet cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), thus reducing thromboxane A2 formation and platelet aggregation. The C50T polymorphism of COX-1 is associated with an impaired inhibition of both thromboxane production and in-vitro platelet aggregation by aspirin. We studied whether this polymorphism is also associated with the risk of clinical thrombotic events in patients using aspirin. We included 496 patients admitted to our Coronary Care Unit for various indications treat… Show more

“…Further studies are necessary to determine whether PTGS1 genotype correlates with clinical response to aspirin. A recent study found no association between PTGS1 genotype and clinical outcomes during aspirin therapy; however, this study was done in Caucasians [22]. Whether PTGS1 genotype contributes to the ability of aspirin to prevent clinical sequelae in ethnically diverse populations has yet to be determined.…”

“…Similarly, a study limited to Caucasians found no association between aspirin response, as measured by clinical thrombotic events, and PTGS1 P17L genotype [22]. Lee et al [13] previously showed that the PTGS1 haplotype structure differs by ethnicity, with significant linkage disequilibrium between the A–707G and P17L variants in Caucasians, but not African Americans.…”

“…The COX-1 C50T single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) reduces response to aspirin but does not modify the risk of atherothrombotic events in White people. 11,12 In a Swedish cohort, the COX-1 SNP rs883484 TT was associated with increased formation of PGF 2α , while the COX-1 SNP rs10306135 TT was associated with decreased formation of PGF 2α and lower prevalence of CVD. 13 The COX-1 rs1330344 SNP CC genotype is associated with an increased risk of subsequent vascular…”

“…4 Some studies suggest that the variability in aspirin response may be due to COX-1 (Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase [PTGS1]) genetic variants because they impact platelet function and aspirin response. 10–12 However, there is uncertainty in the genetic effect of COX-1 on stroke outcomes due to a lack of well-powered studies.…”
