Abstract

Introduction. One of the key roles in the excretion of a number of drugs, in particular nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs, has a transport protein glycoprotein P, encoded by the MDR1 gene. In this connection, the influence of genetic polymorphism of glycoprotein P on the pharmacokinetics of these drugs contributes to the prediction of clinical consequences. Aim. The aim of the current study was to study the associations of polymorphic markers C1236T and C3435T of the MDR1 gene encoding glycoprotein P with the development of undesirable drug reactions in patients with pain syndrome. Material and methods. The study included 69 patients with pain syndrome and were divided into 2 groups depending on the presence of adverse drug reactions: NLR+ - 20 patients and NLR - - 49 patients with pain syndrome. The association of the polymorphic marker C3435T of the MDR1 gene was also studied among 22 patients with adverse drug reactions (ADR+) and 47 patients with pain syndrome without the presence of adverse drug reactions (ADR-). Molecular genetic studies were carried out on the basis of the Laboratory of medical genetics of NIIG and the PC of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Results and discussion. During the genotyping, it was found that the occurrence of alleles and genotypes of the polymorphic marker C3435T of the MDR1 gene had significantly significant differences among the patients of the examined groups, depending on adverse drug reactions. Conclusion. The association of the polymorphic marker C3435T of the MDR1 gene with the development of undesirable drug reactions in pain syndrome, the TT genotype and the T allele may be genetic risk factors (OR=4.0 and 8.25; 95% CI 1.78-9.09 and 2.56-26.57, respectively) predisposing to the development of undesirable drug reactions in patients with pain syndrome. Therefore, further study is necessary in order to carry out genotyping of the polymorphic marker C3435T of the MDR1 gene to increase the effectiveness and safety of therapy of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
