Optimizing thiopurine therapy in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia: A promising “MINT” sequencing strategy and therapeutic “DNA-TG” monitoring

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Thiopurines, including thioguanine (TG), 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), and azathioprine (AZA), are extensively used in clinical practice in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and inflammatory bowel diseases.

Research progress of NT5C2 in disease and treatment [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang, 2023
Cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase Ⅱ(cN-Ⅱ), the protein encoded by NT5C2, can catalyze the dephosphory-lation of nucleoside monophosphate and is mainly involved in the regulation of purine nucleotide pool in cells.

LC–MS/MS Method for Measurement of Thiopurine Nucleotides (TN) in Erythrocytes and Association of TN Concentrations With TPMT Enzyme Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Monitoring concentrations of thiopurine metabolites is used clinically to prevent adverse effects in patients on thiopurine drug therapy. We developed a LC–MS/MS method for the quantification of 6-thioguanine (6-TG) and 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) in ...

6-thioguanine treatment in inflammatory bowel disease: A critical appraisal by a European 6-TG working party [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recently, the suggestion to use 6-thioguanine (6-TG) as an alternative thiopurine in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been discarded due to reports about possible (hepato) toxicity. During meetings arranged in Vienna and Prague in 2004,

Inflammation, DNA-centered radicals, and oxidative genotoxicity: The role of HOCl produced by myeloperoxidase in carcinogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Myeloid cells (macrophages and neutrophils) infiltrate and synthesize myeloperoxidase (MPO) in sites of inflammation, producing gentotoxicity. In RAW 264.7 macrophages, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces superoxide radical anion, nuclear ...

Coagulase-negative staphylococci release a purine analog that inhibits Staphylococcus aureus virulence

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Coagulase-negative staphylococci and Staphylococcus aureus colonize similar niches in mammals. Here, Chin et al. show that a coagulase-negative staphylococcus secretes 6-thioguanine, a purine analog that suppresses S.
