Toxicity evaluation of 6-mercaptopurine-Chitosan nanoparticles in rats
Background: The 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) is an effective immunosuppressant and anti-cancer drug. However, the usage of 6-MP is limited due to its well-known side effects, such as myelotoxicity and hepato-renal toxicity.

We report our single‐center experience of transplant outcomes with a busulfan, fludarabine and melphalan‐based conditioning regimen for children < 18 years of age. The regimen was shown to be well tolerated and effective for heavily pretreated children with high‐risk myeloid malignancies prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Azathioprine in inflammatory bowel disease, a safe alternative?
Azathioprine and its metabolite 6-mercaptopurine are effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. They are mostly used for reduction of the use of steroids, maintenance therapy after remission induction by cyclosporin and treatment of ...

ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in older adults represents a growing clinical challenge, driven by an ageing population, adverse disease biology, and reduced tolerance to intensive chemotherapy. Although pediatric‐inspired regimens have improved outcomes in younger adults with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)‐negative ALL, survival in older ...

A New Electrochemical Sensor for Direct Detection of Purine Antimetabolites and DNA Degradation
The development of a reliable electrochemical sensor using a hybrid nanocomposite consisting of ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate) functionalized graphene oxide (GrO-IL) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) stabilized by chitosan ...

Severe acute axonal neuropathy following treatment with arsenic trioxide for acute promyelocytic leukemia: a case report [PDF]
Peripheral neuropathy is a common complication of arsenic toxicity. Symptoms are usually mild and reversible following discontinuation of treatment. A more severe chronic sensorimotor polyneuropathy characterized by distal axonal-loss neuropathy can be ...

Direct evidence of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Δg)] production from UVA excited 6‐thioguanine
6‐Thioguanine (6‐TGua) is incorporated into DNA as a purine analogue, inhibiting cell replication. Patients treated with 6‐TGua are more prone to developing skin cancer due to the photoexcitation of 6‐TGua by UVA radiation (as illustrated in the Jablonski diagram). Upon exposure to UVA, the excited 6‐TGua generates 1O2.

Spondyloarthritis Associated With Collagenous Colitis—Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Collagenous colitis (CC) is a subtype of microscopic colitis characterized by chronic watery diarrhea with normal endoscopic findings. Although often linked to autoimmune diseases, its association with spondyloarthropathy (SpA) is rare and poorly documented.
