Abstract: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading global cause of death. Early intervention, with lifestyle advice alongside appropriate medical therapies, is fundamental to reduce patient mortality among high-risk individuals. For those who live with the daily challenges of cardiovascular disease, pharmacological management aims to relieve symptoms and prevent disease progression. Despite best efforts, prescription drugs are not without their adverse effects, which can cause significant patient morbidity and consequential economic burden for healthcare systems. Patients with cardiovascular diseases are often among the most vulnerable to adverse drug reactions due to multiple co-morbidities and advanced age. Examining a patient’s genome to assess for variants that may alter drug efficacy and susceptibility to adverse reactions underpins pharmacogenomics. This strategy is increasingly being implemented in clinical cardiology to tailor patient therapies. The Citation: Noyes, J.D.; Mordi, I.R.; Doney, A.S.; Jamal, R.; Lang, C.C.

Such information is considered as one of the main directions to reach personalized medicine in future clinical practices. Since the start of applying next generation sequencing (NGS) methods in drug related clinical investigations, many common medicines found their genetic data for the related metabolizing/shipping proteins in the human body. Yet, the employing of technology is accompanied by big obtained data, which most of them have no clear guidelines for consideration in routine treatment decisions for patients. This review article talks about different types of NGS derived PGx variants in clinical studies and try to display the current and newly developed approaches to deal with pharmacogenetic data with/without clear guidelines for considering in clinical settings.

  • The Genome-Wide Landscape of Copy Number Variations in the MUSGEN Study Provides Evidence for a Founder Effect in the Isolated Finnish Population
    European Journal of Human Genetics (2013) 21, 1411–1416 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/13 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE The genome-wide landscape of copy number variations in the MUSGEN study provides evidence for a founder effect in the isolated Finnish population Chakravarthi Kanduri1, Liisa Ukkola-Vuoti1, Jaana Oikkonen1, Gemma Buck2, Christine Blancher2, Pirre Raijas3, Kai Karma4, Harri La¨hdesma¨ki5 and Irma Ja¨rvela¨*,1 Here we characterized the genome-wide architecture of copy number variations (CNVs) in 286 healthy, unrelated Finnish individuals belonging to the MUSGEN study, where molecular background underlying musical aptitude and related traits are studied. By using Illumina HumanOmniExpress-12v.1.0 beadchip, we identified 5493 CNVs that were spread across 467 different cytogenetic regions, spanning a total size of 287.83 Mb (B9.6% of the human genome). Merging the overlapping CNVs across samples resulted in 999 discrete copy number variable regions (CNVRs), of which B6.9% were putatively novel. The average number of CNVs per person was 20, whereas the average size of CNV per locus was 52.39 kb. Large CNVs (41 Mb) were present in 4% of the samples. The proportion of homozygous deletions in this data set (B12.4%) seemed to be higher when compared with three other populations. Interestingly, several CNVRs were significantly enriched in this sample set, whereas several others were totally depleted. For example, a CNVR at chr2p22.1 intersecting GALM was more common in this population (P ¼ 3.3706 Â 10 À44) than in African and other European populations. The enriched CNVRs, however, showed no significant association with music-related phenotypes.

  • Infinium™ H3africa Consortium Array V2 a Powerful Array for Genetic Studies Focused on African Populations
    Design Content | Process BeadChip | Analyze Data Infinium™ H3Africa Consortium Array v2 A powerful array for genetic studies focused on African populations. Overview The Infinium H3Africa Consortium Array v2 (Figure 1, Table 1) is a powerful array for research studies that enables identification of genetic associations with common and rare traits among African populations (Table 2). Specifically designed by the H3Africa consortium, the array harnesses content from Illumina Omni2.5-8 and Omni5-4 BeadChips, in addition to custom content selected by the consortium based on whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data. The custom content was selected by including specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) requested by H3Africa consortium projects, SNPs within the MHC region, X-chromosome and mitochondrion SNPs, and SNPs of clinical or pharmacogenomic interest. Remaining custom SNPs were selected to improve coverage, imputation accuracy, and enrichment in novel but common variants in African populations based on sequencing data. Figure 1: Infinium H3Africa Consortium Array v2—The 8-sample Infinium Consortium-selected content H3Africa Consortium Array supports rapid cost-effective studies. The H3Africa consortium selected approximately 10,000 variants relevant to specific diseases of interest including variants known to Table 2: Marker information be associated with kidney disease, diabetes, sickle cell disease, a cardiometabolic diseases and susceptibility to infectious diseases.

This article is published with open access Abstract Implementation of pharmacogenetics (PGx) and individualization of drug therapy is supposed to obviate adverse drug reactions or therapy failure. Health care professionals (HCPs) use drug labels (DLs) as reliable information about drugs. We analyzed the Swiss DLs to give an overview on the currently available PGx instructions. We screened 4306 DLs applying natural language processing focusing on drug metabolism (pharmacokinetics) and we assigned PGx levels following the classification system of PharmGKB. From 5979 hits, 2564 were classified as PGx-relevant affecting 167 substances. 55% (n = 93) were classified as “actionable PGx”. Frequently, PGx information appeared in the pharmacokinetics section and in “ ” 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: DLs of the anatomic group nervous system . Unstandardized wording, appearance of PGx information in different sections and unclear instructions challenge HCPs to identify and interpret PGx information and translate it into practice. HCPs need harmonization and standardization of PGx information in DLs to personalize drug therapies and tailor pharmaceutical care. Introduction However, drug therapies may fail, and/or may induce con- siderable adverse drug reactions (ADRs).

As common diseases are frequently associated with genetic variants that exert small effect sizes, GWAS have increasingly focused on large cohorts of patients. For example, a recent mega-GWAS of schizophrenia included more than 37,000 individuals with schizophrenia and 113,000 controls, which enabled the identification of 108 genetic regions linked to schizophrenia, of which 83 were novel, as discussed in a recent news article (Massive schizophrenia genomic study offers new drug directions.
