Investigation of ABCB1 gene polymorphism with colchicine response in Behçet's disease

Colchicine is commonly used in the treatment of Behçet's disease. However, some patients are unresponsive to colchicine treatment. Adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) transports colchicine out of cells. We investigated a possible association of C3435T polymorphi...
