Abstract
To investigate the influence of alterations in vitamin K (K1, K2 and K3) in modulating warfarin dose requirement. Reverse phase HPLC to determine the plasma vitamin K; PCR-RFLP to detect polymorphisms; and the neuro-fuzzy model to predict warfarin dose were used. The developed neuro-fuzzy model showed a mean absolute error of 0.000024 mg/week. CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 mediated warfarin sensitivity was observed when vitamin K is in high and low tertiles, respectively. VKORC1-1639G>A exhibited warfarin sensitivity in all combinations. Higher vitamin K1 was observed in CYP4F2 V433M polymorphism. The requirement of warfarin is low in GGCX 8016 GG genotype compared with GA and AA genotypes. Vitamin K profile along with genetic testing ensures precision in warfarin dose optimization.
