Tacrolimus pharmacogenetics: the CYP3A5*1 allele predicts low dose-normalized tacrolimus blood concentrations in whites and South Asians.

abstract：:ICAM-1 is an inducible glycoprotein important in the adhesion, activation, and transmigration of circulating leukocytes across the vascular endothelial monolayer, and it likely plays a key role in the allogeneic response. To determine the reproducibility and significance of variations in resting levels of cell surface...
