Influence of neurexin 1 (NRXN1) polymorphisms in clozapine response
ReviewRenan P. Souza et al.(2010)· Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental

This systematic review of 98 studies examined biological predictors of clozapine response in treatment-resistant schizophrenia patients. Of 379 different gene variants investigated across 70 genetic studies, only three variants (DRD3 Ser9Gly rs6280, HTR2A His452Tyr, and GNB3 C825T) achieved independent replication. Non-genetic predictors included higher prefrontal cortical volumes and lower HVA:5-HIAA ratio in cerebrospinal fluid.

Lack of association of GPX1 and MnSOD genes with symptom severity and response to clozapine treatment in schizophrenia subjects
ReviewRenan P. Souza et al.(2009)· Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental

A systematic review of 98 studies investigating biological predictors of clozapine response in treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Of 70 genetic studies examining 379 variants, only three genetic variants have independently replicated findings: DRD3 Ser9Gly (rs6280), HTR2A His452Tyr, and GNB3 C825T (rs5442/rs5443). Non-genetic predictors include higher prefrontal cortical structural integrity and activity, and lower HVA:5-HIAA ratio in cerebrospinal fluid.

About CYP3A43

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. The encoded protein has a low level of testosterone hydroxylase activity, and may play a role in aging mechanisms and cancer progression. This gene is part of a cluster of cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 7q21.1. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
