Characterisation of CYP2C8, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms in a Ghanaian population.

BMC medical genetics - 2 Dec 2009

Kudzi William, Dodoo Alexander No, Mills Jeremy J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic influences on drug efficacy and tolerability are now widely known. Pharmacogenetics has thus become an expanding field with great potential for improving drug efficacy and reducing toxicity. Many pharmacologically-relevant polymorphisms do show variability among different populations. Knowledge of allelic frequency distribution within specified populations can be useful in explaining...
