Abstract excerpt
Tryptases are serine proteases involved in mast cell-mediated inflammatory responses which represent potential targets of drugs against diseases such as asthma, arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. In order to interpret pharmacodynamic data on the tryptase inhibitors undergoing clinical trials, we defined the genetic variability of the tryptase 1 (TPS1) and tryptase 2 (TPS2) loci by screening a reference...
