Background/aim: Polymorphisms of genes which encode transporter P-glycoprotein and most important enzymes for tacrolimus pharmacokinetics can have significant influence reflecting on blood concentrations of this drug. The aim of this study was to examine the distribution of polymorphisms of CYP3A5, CYP3A4 and ABCB1 genes in patients subjected to renal transplantation, for the first time in our transplantation center.
Methods: The research was designed as a prospective cross-sectional study which included 211 patients subjected to renal transplantation in the Centre for Solid Organ Transplantation of the university tertiary health care hospital, Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia.
