This study sought to explore the relationship between cytochrome P450 2C19(CYP2C19)*2/*3 polymorphisms and the development of coronary heart disease(CHD),and to evaluate the influence of the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)on the occurrence of adverse clinical events in CHD patients.A total of 231 consecutive patients candidate for percutaneous coronary intervention genotyped for CYP2C19*2(681G>A)and*3(636G>A)polymorphisms were enrolled.The adverse clinical events were recorded during a follow-up period of 14 months.The incidence of CHD,according to coronary angiography,was significantly higher(P=0.025)in CYP2C19*2 carriers group.Stepwise binary logistic regression analysis revealed that among factors that potentially influenced the presence of CHD(age>60 years,gender,BMI,etc.),CYP2C19*2 carriers(OR 1.94,95%CI:1.08-3.50,P=0.028)and male gender(OR 2.74,95%CI:1.58-4.76,P=0.001)were independent predictors,which were associated with the presence of CHD.The follow-up results showed that the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events within 14 months of discharge was significantly higher in the CYP2C 19*2 carriers than in the non-carriers(21.6%vs.6.3%,P=0.019).The results of the multivariate Cox proportional hazards model showed that CYP2C19*2 loss-of-flinction was the only independent factor which predicted the coronary events during the follow-up period of 14 months(OR=3.65,95%CI:1.09-12.25,P=0.036).The adverse impact of CYP2C19*2 polymorphisms was found not only in the risk of the presence of CHD,but also in the adverse cardiovascular events in CHD patients during the follow-up period of 14 months.However the same influence was not found in CYP2C19*3 mutation in Chinese Han population.
