Association Between Genetic Polymorphisms of Metabolic Enzymes and Azathioprine-Induced Myelosuppression in 1,419 Chinese Patients: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between genetic polymorphisms of azathioprine-metabolizing enzymes and adverse reactions of myelosuppression. To this end, a retrospective analysis was performed on 1,419 Chinese patients involving

Clinical and Economic Impact of Expanded TPMT Testing to Prevent Thiopurine-Induced Myelosuppression in Australia: A Budget Impact Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Transl Sci
ABSTRACT Testing thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) enzyme activity or genotype prior to thiopurine prescribing is recommended to reduce the risk of moderate to severe—and potentially fatal—myelosuppression in poor or intermediate TPMT metabolizers. Despite this, only about one‐third of individuals prescribed thiopurines in Australia currently receive

Massively parallel variant characterization identifiesNUDT15alleles associated with thiopurine toxicity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
SignificancePharmacogenetics is a prototype of genomics-guided precision medicine. While there is a rapid expansion of novel pharmacogenetic variants discovered by genome sequencing, the lack of variant interpretation in a scalable fashion is a formidable barrier in this field.NUDT15polymorphism is a major genetic cause for hematopoietic toxicity ...

NUDT15 polymorphisms alter thiopurine metabolism and hematopoietic toxicity [PDF]

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2016
Widely used as anticancer and immunosuppressive agents, thiopurines have narrow therapeutic indices owing to frequent toxicities, partly explained by TPMT genetic polymorphisms. Recent studies identified germline NUDT15 variation as another critical determinant of thiopurine intolerance, but the underlying molecular mechanisms and the clinical ...

Mammalian Nudt15 hydrolytic and binding activity on methylated guanosine mononucleotides

open access: yesEuropean Biophysics Journal, 2023
AbstractThe Nudt15 enzyme of the NUDIX protein family is the subject of extensive study due to its action on thiopurine drugs used in the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases. In addition to thiopurines, Nudt15 is enzymatically active in vitro on several nucleotide substrates.

Supervised learning of protein variant effects across large-scale mutagenesis datasets. [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Sci
Abstract The increasing availability of data from multiplexed assays of variant effects (MAVEs) enables supervised model training against large quantities of experimental data to learn sequence‐function relationships. Variant effect scores from MAVEs can, however, be influenced by the experimental method and library composition, resulting in experiment‐
