Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms CYP3A4*1B and CYP3A5*3 on tacrolimus dose requirement among kidney transplant recipients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood levels of tacrolimus were measured using microparticle enzyme immunoassay. Genotyping analysis utilized specific polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism methods for 137 kidney...
