Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) catalyzes thiopurine S-methylation, an important metabolic pathway for drugs such as 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP). Inherited differences in the activity of this enzyme are related to individual differences in the therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of 6-MP and other thio

## Abstract We have examined red blood cell (RBC) thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity in a healthy population sample of Norwegian children, age 1–10 years. Boys had mean RBC TPMT activity of 11.1 Β± 2.0 U (n = 87) vs. 10.6 Β± 2.2 U (n = 71) in girls, the difference was not significant (__P__
