Ethno Pharmacological Relevance: Andrographis paniculata (AP), Centella asiatica (CA) and Orthosiphon stamineus (OS) are three popular herbs traditionally used worldwide. AP is known for the treatment of infections and diabetes and CA is good for wound healing and healthy skin while OS is usually consumed as tea to treat kidney and urinary disorders. Interaction of these herbs with human cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19), a major hepatic CYP isoform involved in metabolism of many clinical drugs has not been investigated to date.

Aim Of The Study: In this study, the modulatory effects of various extracts and major active constituents of AP, CA and OS on CYP2C19 activities were evaluated.

Materials And Methods: S-mephenytoin, the CYP2C19 substrate probe, was incubated in the presence or absence of AP, CA and OS components. The changes in the rate of metabolite (hydroxymephenytoin) formation were subsequently determined by a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based enzyme assay to characterize the modulatory effects.

Results: Among the herbal extracts studied, AP ethanol extract and CA dichloromethane extract exhibited mixed type inhibition towards CYP2C19 with K(i) values of 67.1 and 16.4 μg/ml respectively; CA ethanol extract and OS petroleum ether extract competitively inhibited CYP2C19 activity (K(i)=39.6 and 41.5 μg/ml respectively). Eupatorin (a major active constituent of OS) was found to significantly inhibit CYP2C19 by mixed type inhibition (K(i)=7.1 μg/ml or 20.6 μM).

Conclusions: It was observed that AP, CA and OS inhibited CYP2C19 activity with varying potency. While weak inhibitory effect was observed with AP, moderate to strong inhibition was observed with CA dichloromethane extract and eupatorin, the major OS constituent. Therefore care should be taken when these CA and OS components are co-administered with CYP2C19 substrates (such as omeprazole, proguanil, barbiturates, citalopram, and diazepam).

Background: Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) improves early post-operative graft patency, but the optimal DAPT strategy for the patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has not been confirmed. We sought to evaluate the effect of aspirin plus ticagrelor versus aspirin plus clopidogrel on saphenous vein graft (SVG) patency within 1 year after CABG.

Methods: Between October 2017 and December 2018, 147 consecutive patients undergoing elective CABG at Changhai Hospital were randomized into two groups: group AT, receiving aspirin 100 mg/d plus ticagrelor 2×90 mg/d; group AC, receiving aspirin 100 mg/d plus clopidogrel 75 mg/d. Read More

Introduction: Genetic variations of enzymes that affect the pharmacokinetics and hence effects of medications differ between ethnicities, resulting in variation in the risk of adverse drug reactions (ADR) between different populations. Previous work has demonstrated that risk-group considerations can be incorporated into approaches of statistical signal detection. It is unknown whether databases of individual case safety reports (ICSRs) are sensitive to pharmacogenomic differences between populations. Read More

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of Tianma (Rhizoma Gastrodiae) and Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae Rhynchophyllae cum Uncis) on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzyme activities in rats.

Methods: A cocktail strategy was followed to evaluate the influence of Tianma (Rhizoma Gastrodiae) and Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae Rhynchophyllae cum Uncis) on the activities of CYP450 isoforms (CYP1A2, CYP3A4, CYP2E1, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6), which were determined by changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters of six probe drugs, theophylline, dapsone, chlorzoxazone, omeprazole, tolbutamide and dextromethorphan. Study groups included, Control group (CG), Tianma (Rhizoma Gastrodiae) group (TM), Gouteng (Ramulus Uncariae Rhynchophyllae cum Uncis) group (GT) and Tianma Gouteng (Gastrodia Uncaria) group (TMGT).

Pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing has emerged as an effective strategy for informing drug selection and dosing. This has led to an increase in the use of PGx testing in the clinic and has catalyzed the emergence of a burgeoning commercial PGx testing industry. However, not all PGx tests are equivalent in their approach to translating testing results into prescribing recommendations, due to an absence of regulatory standards. Read More
