TCD4pos lymphocytosis in rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis patients following TNFα blocking agents [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Lymphocyte expansion and true lymphocytosis are commonly observed in the everyday clinical practice. The meaning of such phenomenon is often poorly understood so that discrimination between benign and malignant lymphocytosis remains ...

Pharmacogenetics of thiopurine therapy: from thiopurine S-methyltransferase to S-adenosylmethionine [PDF]
Background The efficiency and safety of the thiopurine therapy rely on the concentration of patient’s cytotoxic thioguanine nucleotides (TGN), which in turn depend on the deactivation of thiopurine drugs by thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT). The activity of TPMT largely depends on the presence of genetic polymorphisms. Determination of mutations in

ABSTRACT Objectives The success of anti‐TNFα agents has changed the landscape of treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). One major limitation to this success is the secondary loss of response (sLOR) phenomenon. Combination therapy with immunomodulating agents has been shown to be effective in reducing the sLOR process.

Abstract Objectives There are no standardized criteria about stepping down from combination therapy (immunomodulator and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐alpha‐inhibitors) in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to reduce risk for side effects. Our aim was to describe how de‐escalation has been performed in a large paediatric cohort and to find ...

Abstract Objectives Deficiency of serum 25‐hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] was associated with decreased short‐term response to anti‐tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) agents in adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between serum 25(OH)D levels and the outcome of children with IBD undergoing ...

A Rapid and Reliable Absorbance Assay to Identify Drug–Drug Interactions with Thiopurine Drugs
Background: Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) plays a crucial role in the detoxification of thiopurine drugs, including the antimetabolites azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) used to treat autoimmune diseases and various cancers.

ABSTRACT Azathioprine (AZA), a widely used immunosuppressant, can induce acute pancreatitis (AP), yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study employed an integrative multiomics strategy—combining network toxicology, machine learning, Mendelian randomization (MR), and molecular docking—to elucidate the biological basis of AZA ...
