Abstract
Frequencies of TPMT and ITPA variant alleles in Lithuanian IBD group were similar to those observed in the Northern-Eastern Europe Caucasian populations. Polymorphisms in TPMT might be associated with myelotoxicity and leukopenia in AZA treated patients, while ITPA variant alleles appear not to be linked with treatment-related side effects.
