Introduction
Cytochrome P450 2C19, CYP2C19, is responsible for the metabolism of a large number of clinically relevant drugs, including the anticonvulsant mephenytoin, anti-ulcer drugs such as omeprazole, certain antidepressants, and the antimalarial drug proguanil [reviewed by Desta et al, PMID: 12222994]. The drug-interaction table maintained by the COBRA group has a regularly updated list of drugs that interact with CYP2C19 categorized into substrates, inhibitors and inducers, and links to the supporting literature. CYP2C19 protein is mainly present in the liver although activity has been observed in intestine [PMID: 11181505].
A variant response to mephenytoin 4-hydroxylation lead to the phenotypic classification of individuals into poor metabolizers (PM) and extensive metabolizers (EM). It was observed that the PM phenotype was more common in Asians than Whites [PMID: 4042523]. Genetic variation in CYP2C19 was shown to be responsible for the PM phenotype [PMID: 8195181]. The two main haplotypes, CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3, account for 99% of PM in Asians and approximately 87% of White PMs [PMID: 9435198]. Over 20 other variants and haplotypes have been reported. The Human Cytochrome P450 Allele Nomenclature Committee website lists all of the reported genetic variants and their approved haplotype names. The AmpliChip CYP450 Test (Roche Diagnostics) is an FDA approved diagnostic test that detects variation in CYP2C19 and CYP2D6.

This promoter variant is part of CYP2C19*17 haplotype, which causes increased acitivity and increased transcription of CYP2C19. Patients carrying this allele may exhibit a lack of response to commonly prescribed dosages of certain proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and antidepressants, due to ultrarapid clearance of these drugs. CYP2C19*17 carriers are more likely to benifit from tamoxifen treatment.- Variant Name:

Risk or phenotype-associated allele: T Phenotype: For both C/T (n=546) and T/T (n=76) allele carriers, significantly lower ADP-induced platelet aggregation values were found compared with wild-type homozygotes (C/C; n=902; P=0.039 and P=0.008, respectively). T allele carriage was significantly associated with an increased risk of bleeding. The study concludes that CYP2C19*17 carrier status is significantly associated with enhanced response to clopidogrel and an increased risk of bleeding. Study size: 1524 patients.

CYP2C19
This allele was examined in a European Caucasian population which had been phenotyped for mephenytoin metabolism. Based on the genotyping results the authors conclude that the defective nature of the CYP2C19*4 allele is shown by the fact that two Caucasian poor metabolizers were heterozygous for CYP2C19*2/CYP2C19*4. In vitro experiments showed no expression of CYP2C19*4 cDNA. The study calculated that the frequency of the CYP2C19*4 allele in Caucasians was 0.6%.- Variant Name:

CYP2C19
Subjects who had previously experienced myocardial infarction and were receiving clopidogrel were almost twice as likely to experience a subsequent cardiovascular event if they carried any two CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles (CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*4 or CYP2C19*5) relative to those with none. Patients from this study who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and carried two CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles had a 3.58 times greater risk of cardiovascular events as those with none. These results suggest that treatment with clopidogrel is less effective in individuals who are homozygous for CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles than in those who do not carry CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles.- Variant Name:

Subjects with acute coronary syndromes receiving treatment with clopidogrel and who carried two copies of CYP2C19 loss-of-function/reduced function alleles (two copies of CYP2C19*2; or one copy of CYP2C19*2 and one copy of CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*4 or CYP2C19*8) had a relative increase of 53% in risk of death from cardiovascular causes, myocardial infarction, or stroke, as compared with noncarriers. Subjects were participants in the Trial to Assess Improvement in Therapeutic Outcomes by Optimizing Platelet Inhibition with Prasugrel-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TRITON-TIMTI) 38. 97.6% of the study participants were Caucasian. In a separate cohort of healthy subjects treated with clopidogrel, carriers of at least one reduced-function CYP2C19 allele had significantly lower levels of clopidogrel's active metabolite and diminished platelet inhibition.- Variant Name:
