Dietary polyphenols influence antimetabolite agents: methotrexate, 6-mercaptopurine and 5-fluorouracil in leukemia cell lines [PDF]
Polyphenols have been previously shown to sensitize leukemia cell lines to topoisomerase inhibitors. Here, we assess the effects of five polyphenols when used alone and in combination with antimetabolites: methotrexate, 6-mercaptopurine and 5 ...

Apoptosome activation, an important molecular instigator in 6-mercaptopurine induced Leydig cell death. [PDF]
Leydig cells are crucial to the production of testosterone in males. It is unknown if the cancer chemotherapeutic drug, 6-mercaptopurine (6 MP), produces Leydig cell failure among adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Moreover, it is

The electrochemical stability of thiols on gold surfaces [PDF]
In this paper we present a comparative analysis of the electrochemical stability of alkanethiols, aromatic and heterocyclic thiols on the Au(111) and Au(100) faces in relation to the theoretical energetic data. The peak potential and surface coverage are

Variants in TPMT, ITPA, ABCC4 and ABCB1 genes as predictors of 6-mercaptopurine induced toxicity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common childhood malignancy. Optimal use of anti leukemic drugs has led to less toxicity and adverse reactions, and a higher survival rate. Thiopurine drugs, including 6-mercaptopurine, are mostly used
