1 | METHODS: The dose-normalized blood concentrations of tacrolimus at 3 months after renal transplantation were related to CYP3AP1 and multiple drug resistance (MDR)-1 genotypes determined by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. | Tacrolimus | cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 51, pseudogene | Homo sapiens |
2 | RESULTS: We found that a single nucleotide polymorphism in the CYP3AP1 pseudogene (A/G(44)) that previously has been noted to be more common in African Americans and strongly associated with hepatic CYP3A5 activity correlated well with the tacrolimus dose requirement. | Tacrolimus | cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 51, pseudogene | Homo sapiens |
3 | CONCLUSIONS: The CYP3AP1 genotype is a major factor in determining the dose requirement for tacrolimus, and genotyping may be of value in planning patient-specific drug dosing. | Tacrolimus | cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 51, pseudogene | Homo sapiens |
