Antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment in epilepsy is often compromised by the unpredictability of efficacy and inter-individual variability among patients, which at least in part is the result of genetic variation. The idea to determine an individual's response to a prescribed medicine came into inception around 29 years ago. Pharmacogenetics is used to predict the drug response and efficacy, as well as potential adverse effects. We investigated the functional significance of the C3435T polymorphism of the MDR1 gene in a South Indian population. The patients were divided into responders and non-responders based on their clinical outcome and AED response. The risk of drug resistance was significantly higher in patients bearing TT genotype in comparison to carriers of the homozygous CC genotype [TT vs. CC, χ(2)=12.52; p=0.001, Odds ratio=2.34 (95% CI: 1.942-11.32)]. We suggest that the influence of the C3435T polymorphism in predicting the drug-resistance in epilepsy, might be significant and further investigations focusing on carbamazepine and phenytoin, in various ethnic populations are necessary to clarify the effect of C3435T polymorphism on the multidrug resistance in epilepsy patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.

D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D004827 Epilepsy A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy).
