Popis: Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressive drug widely used in kidney transplantation. Cytochrome P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) protein is involved in tacrolimus metabolism. Single nucleotide polymorphism in the CYP3A5 gene (6986A>G) results in alteration in metabolic activity of CYP3A5 protein which eventually affects the tacrolimus concentration. Patients with CYP3A5 expresser genotypes (A/A *1/*1 and A/G *1/*3) metabolize tacrolimus more rapidly than CYP3A5 nonexpressers (G/G *3/*3). We performed meta-analysis to estimate the effect of CYP3A5 polymorphism on the trough concentration–dose ratio (Co/D) and risk of renal allograft rejection with similar post-transplant periods and Asian vs. European populations. Our results showed that the tacrolimus Co/D ratio is significantly lower in CYP3A5 expresser group as compared with nonexpresser in Asian as well as in European populations at any post-transplant period (p
