Association of warfarin dose with genes involved in its action and metabolism
AssociationN=201Mia Wadelius et al.(2007)· Human Genetics

An association study of 201 warfarin-treated patients found that polymorphisms in VKORC1, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, PROC, and APOE were significantly associated with warfarin dose requirement (P < 0.000175 for VKORC1 and CYP2C9). A multiple regression model incorporating VKORC1, CYP2C9, PROC, and non-genetic factors (age, bodyweight, drug interactions, treatment indication) accounted for 62% of the variance in warfarin dose.

About F7

This gene encodes coagulation factor VII which is a vitamin K-dependent factor essential for hemostasis. This factor circulates in the blood in a zymogen form, and is converted to an active form by either factor IXa, factor Xa, factor XIIa, or thrombin by minor proteolysis. Upon activation of the factor VII, a heavy chain containing a catalytic domain and a light chain containing 2 EGF-like domains are generated, and two chains are held together by a disulfide bond. In the presence of factor III and calcium ions, the activated factor then further activates the coagulation cascade by converting factor IX to factor IXa and/or factor X to factor Xa. Defects in this gene can cause coagulopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing to generate mature polypeptides.
