Pharmacokinetics, limited sampling strategies, and pharmacogenetics of mycophenolic acid in thoracic transplant recipients

Mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active metabolite of mycophenolate mofetil, is an immunosuppressive agent known to exhibit wide inter-patient pharmacokinetic variability. The metabolism and transport of MPA and the phenolic (MPAG) and acyl (AcMPAG) glucuronides are mediated by UDP-glucuronosyltransfera...
