Biomarkers Predictive of Response to Thiopurine Therapy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease [PDF]
The complex nature of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often results in treatment failure for many patients. With some patients cycling through multiple therapies before achieving a sustained period of remission, the ability to predict a patient's ...

Thiopurine S -methyltransferase polymorphisms: efficient screening method for patients considering taking thiopurine drugs [PDF]
Objective: More than 11% of the Caucasian population are heterozygous or homozygous carriers of thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) mutants and are at risk for toxic side effects when treated with thiopurine drugs.

Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) Guideline for Thiopurine Dosing Based on TPMT and NUDT15 Genotypes: 2025 Update. [PDF]
Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) and Nudix hydrolase 15 (NUDT15) are key enzymes that catabolize thiopurines. Decreased or no‐function alleles in TPMT and NUDT15 are associated with reduced or no enzyme activity and predictive of pronounced adverse effects, including severe myelosuppression, that may occur among individuals treated with standard ...

The thiopurine drugs are purine antimetabolites widely used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, autoimmune disorders (e.g. Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis) and of organ transplant recipients. As inactive prodrugs, 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), 6-thioguanine (6-TG) and azathioprine require intracellular activation, catalyzed by ...

Association between thiopurine S-methyltransferase polymorphisms and thiopurine-induced adverse drug reactions in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
Thiopurine drugs are well established treatments in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but their use is limited by significant adverse drug reactions (ADRs).

The thiopurine derivatives azathioprine (AZA), mercaptopurine (MP) and tioguanine (TG) remain standard treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The immune suppressive effect of thiopurines is primarily based on blocking the Ras-related C3 botulinum
