TLDR
In this article, an expanded literature review showed that CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles confer increased risks for serious adverse cardiovascular (CV) events among clopidogrel-treated patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C19 catalyzes the bioactivation of the antiplatelet prodrug clopidogrel, and CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles impair formation of active metabolites, resulting in reduced platelet inhibition. In addition, CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles confer increased risks for serious adverse cardiovascular (CV) events among clopidogrel-treated patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Guideline updates include emphasis on appropriate indication for CYP2C19 genotype–directed antiplatelet therapy, refined recommendations for specific CYP2C19 alleles, and additional evidence from an expanded literature review (updates at http://www.pharmgkb.org).

Pharmacokinetics of bupropion and its pharmacologically active metabolites in pregnancy

TL;DR: It is reported that the isoform-specific effect of pregnancy on bupropion-metabolizing enzymes along with the increase of renal elimination of the drug could collectively result in a slight decrease in exposure to buPropion in pregnancy.

Optimizing clopidogrel dose response: a new clinical algorithm comprising CYP2C19 pharmacogenetics and drug interactions.

TL;DR: All patients under clopidogrel treatment, whose genotypes are different from *1*1, and concomitantly taking other drugs metabolized by CYP2C19 require clopIDogrel dose adjustment, and a new clinical-pharmacogenetic algorithm developed based on this data has the potential to maximize the benefit of clopidoogrel pharmacological therapy.

Prasugrel versus Clopidogrel in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes

TL;DR: In patients with acute coronary syndromes with scheduled percutaneous coronary intervention, prasugrel therapy was associated with significantly reduced rates of ischemic events, including stent thrombosis, but with an increased risk of major bleeding, including fatal bleeding.

Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes

TL;DR: In patients who have an acute coronary syndrome with or without ST-segment elevation, treatment with ticagrelor as compared with clopidogrel significantly reduced the rate of death from vascular causes, myocardial infarction, or stroke without an increase in the rates of overall major bleeding but with an increase of non-procedure-related bleeding.

A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

TL;DR: A systematic review of studies published from January 1, 1950, through November 31, 2008 using PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Knowledge, CINAHL, and all Evidence-Based Medicine Reviews found that randomized clinical trials and prospective studies of RRTs that reported data on changes in the primary outcome of hospital mortality or the secondary outcome of cardiopulmonary arrest cases were included.

Genetic Structure of Human Populations

TL;DR: General agreement of genetic and predefined populations suggests that self-reported ancestry can facilitate assessments of epidemiological risks but does not obviate the need to use genetic information in genetic association studies.
