Abstract excerpt
The human cytochrome CYP4F12 has been shown to be active toward inflammatory mediators and exogenous compounds such as antihistaminic drugs. In the present study, we report the first investigation of polymorphisms in the human CYP4F12 gene. A screening for sequence variations in the 5'-flanking region was performed by a Polymerase Chain Reaction-Single Strand Conformational Polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) strategy, using...
