2. Experimental design of phenotyping probe drugs with emphasis on CYP1A2 : their use in studies on genetic and environmental regulation of drug metabolism
Abstract : Assessment of the cytochrome (CYP) P450 enzyme activity or phenotyping is a method to characterise the real activity of an enzyme by the use of a marker probe drug. The information of the phenotype is of clinical relevance because it reflects the combined effects of genetic, environmental e.g. READ MORE
