Disease relevance of VMAC

 

High impact information on VMAC

  • In VMAC, significantly more adverse events occurred with nitroglycerin than with nesiritide [2].
  • Studies in a recombinant yeast expression system showed that the Leu359 variant had the highest Km and the lowest Vmac for hydroxylation of tolbutamide of all the CYP2C9 allelic variants [3].
