Popis: One of the leading anticoagulants in Russia is warfarin. Its pharmacokinetics is determined by structural polymorphisms of CYP2C9 cytochrome gene, metabolizing warfarin. In the present study, the authors analyzed: 1) prevalence of two allele variants of this gene; 2) patients' individual reaction to warfarin, according to their CYP2C9 genotype. It was demonstrated that: 1) prevalence of CYP2C9 gene allele variants in St. Petersburg population was 82,66% (CYP2C9*1), 11,11% (CYP2C9*2), and 6,32% (CYP2C9*3); 2) individuals with CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles reached therapeutic hypocoagulation faster, and required significantly lower weekly doses of the medication. Routine identification of CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles is recommended to all patients administered warfarin.
