Abstract excerpt
The aim of the study was to validate the impact of the single-nucleotide polymorphism rs2413739 (T > C) in the PACSIN2 gene on thiopurines pharmacological parameters and clinical response in an Italian cohort of pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In ALL, PACSIN2 rs2413739 T allele was associated with a significant reduction of TPMT activity in...
