Abstract excerpt
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Thymidylate synthase (TYMS) is an important target for methotrexate (MTX). Genetic variations in the TYMS gene contribute to the differences in treatment responses to MTX. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of a microRNA (miRNA) binding site polymorphism (rs2790 A > G) in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of TYMS and its association with MTX concentration and...
