RYK Gene Expression Associated with Drug Response Variation of Temozolomide and Clinical Outcomes in Glioma Patients

PHARMACEUTICALS, 16(5).

By: R. Gonzalez *, G. Small*, A. Green n, F. Akhtari*, T. Havener *, J. Quintanilha *, A. Cipriani *, D. Reif*  ...

author keywords: GWAS; chemotherapy; sensitivity; resistance; glioma; drug response; temozolomide; knockdown; overexpression; pharmacogenomics; gene expression; RYK
TL;DR: The findings suggest that RYK expression may serve as an important prognostic or predictor of TMZ response and survival for glioma patients and a combination of RyK expression and MGMT status could serve as a additional biomarker for improved survival. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: F. Akhtari n, A. Green n, G. Small*, T. Havener *, J. House* , K. Roell  n, D. Reif n , H. McLeod, T. Wiltshire*, A. Motsinger-Reif*

Ed(s): F. Vazquez

MeSH headings : Antineoplastic Agents / pharmacology; Biomarkers, Pharmacological / analysis; Cell Line, Tumor; Genome-Wide Association Study / methods; High-Throughput Screening Assays / methods; Humans; NAD(P)H Dehydrogenase (Quinone) / drug effects; NAD(P)H Dehydrogenase (Quinone) / genetics; NAD(P)H Dehydrogenase (Quinone) / metabolism
TL;DR: The NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) gene was found to be associated with the dose-response of arsenic trioxide, erlotinib, tramet inib, and a combination treatment of paclitaxel + epirubicin. (via Semantic Scholar)

Race and smoking status associated with paclitaxel drug response in patient-derived lymphoblastoid cell lines

PHARMACOGENETICS AND GENOMICS, 31(2), 48–52.

By: F. Akhtari n, T. Havener *, D. Hertz *, J. Ash n, A. Larson n, L. Carey *, H. McLeod *, A. Motsinger-Reif*

author keywords: dose-response; lymphoblastoid cell lines; paclitaxel; patient-derived cell lines; pharmacogenomics; smoking
MeSH headings : Breast Neoplasms / drug therapy; Breast Neoplasms / genetics; Breast Neoplasms / pathology; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Survival / drug effects; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Drug Resistance, Neoplasm / genetics; Female; Humans; Middle Aged; Paclitaxel / adverse effects; Paclitaxel / pharmacology; Pharmacogenetics; Racial Groups / genetics; Smoking / adverse effects; Smoking / genetics
TL;DR: It is indicated that in-vivo smoking status can influence ex- vivo dose-response in LCLs, and more precise measures of covariates may allow for more precise forecasting of clinical effect. (via Semantic Scholar)
