Genetically determined diversity in the activity of enzymes regulating the biotransformation of drugs and xenobiotics - cytochrome P450 (CYP) is one of the main causes of interindividual differences in the response of pharmacotherapy. The objective of this review is to analyze the prevalence of polymorphic markers of gene CYP2C19, associated with the violation of the pharmacological response to clopidogrel among the various ethnic groups living in the Russian Federation, and to define the prospects of using pharmacogenetic testing in order to improve the efficiency and safety of antiplatelet therapy in Russian patients with coronary artery disease. According to the result of the studies frequency of CYP2C19*2 is higher in the Mongolian race (max frequency in Kalmyks is 25,0%). CYP2C19*17 allele was studied in Russians only and was about the same as in the Caucasian race (14,0%).
