Objective To investigate the effect of Nao xin tong on the platelet function of clopidogrel resistance groups with qi deficiency and blood stasis constitution related to CYP2C19*2 gene mutation.Methods 1. PCR-RFLP technology was used to genotype the CYP2C19*2 polymorphisms in 360 volunteers from 25-55 years old after physical examination. 2. Eighteen male volunteers with qi deficiency and blood stasis constitution ( 6 CYP2C19*1/*1, 6 CYP2C19*1/*2, 6 CYP2C19*2/*2 ) were enrolled in this study after signing informed consent. Each took clopidogrel 300mg on the first day and then 75mg once daily for consecutive six days . After seven washing days , NaoXinTong(0.8g,tid) was pretreated for five days. Then NaoXinTong combined clopidogrel were taken for 7 day(sthe dose was the same as above). Blood samples were obtained to measure the ADP-induced platelet aggregation by turbidimetry at baseline and 4 hours,24hours,3days and 7days after clopidogrel administration,and measure the platelet count, platelet functional and inflammatory index (ADP-induced platelet aggregation,CD62PandPAC-1 by flow cytometry,sCD40L by enzyme-linked Immunosorbnent assay) at baseline ,7 days after single clopidogrel administration, the seventh washing day,5 days after NaoXinTong administration and 7 days after clopidogrel combined NaoXinTong.Results 1. The frequencies of different genotypes of CYP2C19*2 were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in our study(P>0.05).2.(1) At baseline there were no significant difference of BMI, blood biochemical indicators,platelet count,platelet aggregation, CD62P,PAC-1and sCD40L among the three different CYP2C19*2 genotypes. Nephelometry and flow cytometry determination of ADP-induced platelet aggregation has a good correlation(r=0.397,P=0.004).(2)There were significant decrease in ADP-induced platelet aggregation by turbidimetry at 4 hours,24hours,3days and 7days after clopidogrel administration among the three different CYP2C19*2 genotypes compared with that of the same genotype at baseline(P<0.01). ADP-induced platelet aggregation of CYP2C19*2/*2 genotype at 4 hours,24hours,3days and 7days were much higher than those of CYP2C19*1/*1 genotype (55.0士5.3%,52.1士2.4%,52.2士5.2% , 52.9士3.5%VS 22.2士3.8%,21.2士2.4%,23.1士4.5%,21.2士2.8% in CYP2C19*1/*1 in CYP2C19*2/*2, P<0.01).(3) There were significant decrease in ADP-induced platelet aggregation by flow cytometry after the administration of NaoXinTong among the three different CYP2C19*2 genotypes compared with that of the same genotype at the seventh washing day (P<0.01),but there were no significant difference among the three different CYP2C19*2 genotypes. (4) The platelet aggregation by flow cytometry ,CD62P,PAC-1 and sCD40L of CYP2C19*2/*2 genotype were significantly decreased at after two drugs'administration compared with the administration of NaoXinTong (2.1±0.2% VS 8.8±1.2%,22.2±1.1% VS 26.7±1.9%,20.4±1.2% VS 27.3±3.4%,1.2±0.3 VS 2.4±0.4, P <0.05).(5) The platelet aggregation by flow cytometry were significantly decreased in three different CYP2C19*2 genotypes (3.5±1.7% VS 7.2±1.5%,2.8±0.8% VS 16.1±2%, 2.1±0.2% VS 19.8±1.6%,P<0.01)between two drugs'administration and the administration of clopidogrel alone.Conclusions CYP2C19*2 genetic polymorphisms reduced to the inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation by clopidogrel. The combination of clopidogrel with NaoXinTong can improve the curative effect of clopidogrel in the patients with CYP2C19 * 2 gene mutations . |
