Implicações farmacogenéticas de polimorfismos da eNOS para drogas de ação cardiovascular

Abstract: The pharmacogenetics is one of the most promising fields of medicine. The conclusion of the Genome Project allowed this field to start discovering complex factors modulating the response to drugs, and new technologies are close a great expansion of the area. The cardiovascular diseases are currently among the major causes of hospitalizations and death, and have been the target of a large part of genetic studies of complex diseases. Parallel to the susceptibility to disease markers identification, it is necessa… Show more

“…Studies have shown that fluvastatin and atorvastatin can increase the transcriptional activity of the eNOS gene. Statins can also inhibit the replication protein A1 (RPA1), a repressor of the transcriptional activity of eNOS (1,16,41), particularly in subjects with the CC genotype (1,12,38,91). This has been demonstrated by increased circulating levels of nitric oxide biomarkers (nitrite and nitrate) following administration of statins, regardless of the genotype, but being higher in C-allele carriers (1,12,16,41,82,83).…”

“…Several polymorphisms have been associated with pre-eclampsia and other cardiovascular and hypertensive disorders 9698. A relationship between eNOS polymorphisms and differential responses to several classes of cardiovascular drugs has been shown,99 some of which are used for the treatment of pre-eclampsia.…”

“…NO is produced by NO-synthases (NOS), which catalyze the conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline and NO. There are three isoforms of NOS: neuronal (nNOS), induced (iNOS) and endothelial (eNOS) [7]. It has been reported that eNOS is the predominant isoform of NOS expressed in normal adult bone.…”
