In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s
new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research
outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then
the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a
temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract
The study of pharmacogenetics will optimize the use of systemic therapies in dermatology. Directed prescription of azathioprine dependent on phenotypic expression of the thiopurine methyltransferase gene is now accepted practice. To some extent other, older drugs have been neglected. We look at the role that pharmacogenetics could play in the use of methotrexate for psoriasis, focusing on known polymorphisms in the folate metabolic pathway.
