Studies on the relation between heme and nucleic acid syntheses in erythroid cell. I. Effects of aminopterin and bromouracil on hemopoiesis and hemoglobin synthesis in anemic rat [PDF]
For the purpose to see how the suppression of the nucleic acid synthesis disturbs the cell specialization process the author observed the erythroid cell specialization in anemic rats by treating them with aminopterin (AP) and 5-bromouracil (BU).

Methotrexate Is a JAK/STAT Pathway Inhibitor. [PDF]
The JAK/STAT pathway transduces signals from multiple cytokines and controls haematopoiesis, immunity and inflammation. In addition, pathological activation is seen in multiple malignancies including the myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs).

Drugs and drug-like molecules can modulate the function of mucosal-associated invariant T cells [PDF]
The major-histocompatibility-complex-(MHC)-class-I-related molecule MR1 can present activating and non-activating vitamin-B-based ligands to mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT cells). Whether MR1 binds other ligands is unknown. Here we identified
