Résumé

Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) catalyzes the S-methylation of thiopurines (mercaptopurine (MP) and tioguanine (TG)), chemotherapeutic agents used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Polymorphisms in This review gives an overview on To titrate thiopurines safely and effectively, achieve the right degree of lymphotoxic effect and avoid excessive myelosuppression, the optimal management will combine a preemptive
