Abstract excerpt
Although the mouse has great potential for pharmacogenomic discovery, little is known about variation in drug response or genetic variation in pharmacologically relevant genes between inbred mouse strains. We therefore assessed variation in gene sequence, mRNA expression and protein activity of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) in multiple inbred mouse strains. TPMT activity was measured by high-performance...
