Abstract excerpt
AIM: We investigated the clinical relevance of SLC19A1 genetic variability for methotrexate (MTX) toxicity in rheumatoid arthritis patients using a haplotype-based approach. PATIENTS & METHODS: Two hundred and twelve unrelated rheumatoid arthritis patients and 89 lymphoblastoid cell lines were used to investigate the effect of SLC19A1 SNPs and haplotypes on MTX adverse events and treatment discontinuation....
