  • Publication number: 20070248955
    Abstract: IL1A or a gene located near IL1A on chromosome 2q14 may contribute to hepatotoxicity, as measured by increased serum levels of aspartate transaminase, during N-benzoyl-staurosporine treatment for macular edema. Accordingly, genetic polymorphisms in the IL1A gene are useful as biomarkers for predicting staurosporine derivative-mediated hepatotoxicity.
