Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the polymorphism of multidrug resistance 1 gene (MDR1) in the donors and liver transplantation recipients was correlated with interindividual variation in tacrolimus dose requirement and concentration-to-dose ratio. METHODS: The occurrence of MDR1 3435(C-->T) polymorphism was investigated by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis...
