Treating activated CD4+ T cells with either of two distinct DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, 5-azacytidine or procainamide, is sufficient to cause a lupus-like disease in syngeneic mice. [PDF]
Human antigen-specific CD4+ T cells become autoreactive after treatment with various DNA methylation inhibitors, including 5-azacytidine, procainamide, and hydralazine.

Mechanisms of drug‐induced lupus. IV. Comparison of procainamide and hydralazine with analogs in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
OBJECTIVE T cells treated with DNA methylation inhibitors overexpress lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1), which results in autoreactivity, and the autoreactive cells cause a lupus-like disease in vivo, suggesting a mechanism by which some ...

THE GANGLION BLOCKING ACTION OF PROCAINAMIDE [PDF]
In cats and rabbits procainamide (20 to 50 mg, intravenously) produced a fall of blood pressure of 20 to 50 mm Hg which reached a maximal effect within 1 min and lasted for about 5 min. Procainamide reduced the pressor responses to nicotine and to carotid arterial occlusion and reduced the depressor response to vagal stimulation, but did not antagonize
