Methotrexate in dermatology

Dermatologic Therapy, 2007
Methotrexate is a folic acid analog pioneered for use in inflammatory diseases by dermatologists, and used successfully for over 40 years for a wide variety of cutaneous diseases. In addition to its antiproliferative properties, methotrexate has other more recently recognized anti-inflammatory properties related to its effects on adenosine.

Methotrexate bioavailability.

Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 2010
The clinical relevance of the concept of bioavailability rests on two main principles. First, that measurement of the active component at the site of action is generally not possible and, secondly, that a relationship exists between on the one hand efficacy and/or safety and on the other hand concentration of the active compound or its active ...

Analogs of methotrexate

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 1979
Analogues of methotrexate (MTX) were prepared by alkylation of side-chain precursors with 6-(bromomethyl)-2,4-pteridinediamine followed, where necessary, by saponification of the intermediate esters and, in two cases, by electrophilic substitution reactions in the pyridine ring portion of 3-deazamethotrexate.

METHOTREXATE HEPATOTOXICITY

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1997
Hepatoxicity is a major adverse reaction that can occur during methotrexate treatment of the rheumatic diseases. The pathologic lesions are nonspecific and the pathogenesis is poorly understood. Early studies in psoriasis clearly established a relationship between hepatic injury and several risk factors, particularly alcohol use.

Pharmacokinetics of methotrexate

Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1974
Methotrexate (Mtx) is a competitive inhibitor of the enzymatic activity of dihydrofolate reductase, decreasing the reduction of folic acid to tetrahydrofolate and thereby the activity of thymi dilate kinase. The net effect is a decrease in biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) primarily, but also of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein. Whereas the
