Abstract excerpt
The genetic polymorphisms in the ABCB1 gene, which encodes for the membrane pump, P-glycoprotein, have been previously demonstrated to have an association with tacrolimus dosing in organ transplant patients. This study associated the haplotype and genotype for ABCB1 G2677T and C3435T variants with a sequential analysis of tacrolimus blood level (ng/mL) per mg/day dosage ([L/D]) administered to 91 adult lung...
