Allopurinol Induction on Histopathological Structure of the Liver in Male Mice (Mus musculus)
Allopurinol is used to reduce total uric acid levels in the body into oxypurinol which can inhibit xanthine oxidase. Allopurinol inhibits the precursors of uric acid formation, xanthine, and hypoxanthine.

Xanthine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase contribute to allopurinol metabolism in rats
Background Allopurinol is used to treat hyperuricemia and gout. It is metabolized to oxypurinol by xanthine oxidase (XO), and aldehyde oxidase (AO). Allopurinol and oxypurinol are potent XO inhibitors that reduce the plasma uric acid levels.

An association study of ABCG2 rs2231142 on the concentrations of allopurinol and its metabolites
ABCG2 is a gene that codes for the human breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). It is established that rs2231142 G>T, a single nucleotide polymorphism of the ABCG2 gene, is associated with gout and poor response to allopurinol, a uric acid‐lowering ...
