Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic polymorphisms of UGT1A3, UGT1A6, and UGT2B7 in Chinese epilepsy patients and their potential influence on the pharmacokinetics of valproic acid (VPA). METHODS: The genetic architectures of UGT1A3, UGT1A6, and UGT2B7 in 242 epilepsy patients were detected by DNA sequencing and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Steady-state plasma...
