Introduction: Genetic polymorphisms of
CYP2C9 among different populations in different
geographical regions could be dif ferent .
CYP2C9 has been reported to be the enzyme
responsible for the metabolism of many drugs,
including warfarin and other drugs with a narrow
therapeutic index. Realising the importance of
inter-individual differences in the genetic profile
in determining the outcome of a drug therapy,
this study was conducted to explore the types
and frequencies of CYP2C9 alleles in healthy
and warfarin-treated Malays and Chinese, the
two major ethnic groups in Malaysia. We aimed
to evaluate the prevalence of the types and
frequencies of common CYP2C9 alleles (*1, *2, *3
and *4) among the healthy unrelated individuals
and diseased patients prescribed with warfarin. |
