Loss of function polymorphisms in SLCO1B1 (c.521T>C, rs4149056) and ABCG2 (c.421C>A, rs2231142) genes are associated with adverse events of rosuvastatin: a case-control study.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The study aims to evaluate relationship between polymorphisms associated with a reduced function of two transporter proteins resulting in increased exposure to rosuvastatin - organic anion transporter 1B1 (OATP1B1) (SLCO1B1 c.521T>C) and ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) (ABCG2 c.421C>A) and occurrence of rosuvastatin related myotoxicity/hepatotoxicity. METHODS: In a case-control study,...
